Fast-paced tool
What do you like best about the product?
The most exciting part about working with Miro is its amazing flexibility and adaptability to every task, from architectural diagrams to UX storyboards.
What do you dislike about the product?
After all these years, I still don't understand how board access rights work. Who will see the board I have created? Why do I see some of the other boards and some I can't? And - finding some board I created a year ago, is possible only with the link at hand, it just sinks somewhere in an endless page of boards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- The ability to keep all project materials on one borderless page
- A huge number of templates for any task
- An priceless tool for online workshops

Great collaboration tool for UX writers!
What do you like best about the product?
Cloud-based collaboration. The ability to overlay copy onto images so as writers, we have a feel for how much space we have for copy, the visual hierarchy of the page or screen, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some minor flaws like the ability to add outlines around imported images, the way text can (or can't) be formatted depending on the "box" type. But overall, there is much more good than bad.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Copy recommendations for web pages on desktop and mobile devices. The ability to export specific sections of the Miro board into high-quality PDFs is invaluable for communicating recommendations that are easy for non-UX teams to understand.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the plunge. It's well worth it.
Good substitute for - and sometimes even enhancement over - physical workshops
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use: even new users will get the hang of it quickly (even though navigation needs a little getting used to).
Beautiful results: The developers thought of many details to make the result look prettier and more clutter-free than for instance designing a slide in Powerpoint

What do you dislike about the product?
Navigation is a little difficult at first. Also, I still don't understand their membership model, which is quite complicated. But now that I have a premium membership for some of my boards, I can work with everybody I need to, so I don't care too much anymore.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ideation; visualising complex systems for which Powerpoint is too ugly and paper to cumbersome & unflexible; to collect all of our workshop results over a couple of months in one place.
Next best thing to in-person whiteboard collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
The whole system was designed with collaboration in mind. There's a great selection of templates (both from Miro and from 3rd parties) to get you started on whatever type of meeting or collaboration you're working on. They've streamlined the ability to get things into the workspace. Importing things from actual pictures of a real-world whiteboard and converting them to post it notes is a feature as well as integrations with a host of other services like google images etc. to bring assets into the board.
What do you dislike about the product?
The sharing tools were a little clunky. I think they just released an update that allows me to share a board with nothing but a link and a password. Previously you had to invite each member to your team which could be frustrating for one-off meetings. But I think this has been addressed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With COVID and our whole team working remote it's been a godsend to enable us to visualize our brainstorming sessions. I've also used to to facilitate retrospective meetings, design sprints... etc. The beauty of Miro is that it's as versatile as a blank whiteboard. I've been able to regain that collaboration aspect that's been missing since we switched to 100% remote because of the pandemic.
Amazing Whiteboard Application
What do you like best about the product?
Limitless space to create whiteboard activities. Integrated video chat and the ability to invite non-team members as guest editors. The best solution for converting my in-person workshop to a virtual one. I have created a voting activity, created breakout room boards, converted Powerpoint slides to frames, and can now launch our virtual workshop later this year.
What do you dislike about the product?
With the large space comes a bit cumbersome navigation. Can be resolved using a mouse not a trackpad, but adds to the need for user training before hosting a collaborative event
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Converting a 3-day in-person workshop to a five-session online version. The workshop is high interaction and group activities and needed something that would allow for group interaction, a virtual wall to hang visual tools, and strong facilitator tools. Using Miro ic can present content, lead discussions that include group responses, host voting, chat activities, and host videos. I am very impressed with the flexibility and integration with tools like G Drive and Jira.
