Practical, easy to use and great for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Love love love the templates! Love how flexible and autonomous it feels to use. Great for organizing and mapping out thoughts and ideas. Absolutely love how easy it is to crop an imported image and resize. I also love how easy it is to collaborate using Miro. It's very helpful for remote working and team bonding. I think Miro does a phenomenal job at making their product easy to use and very practical, while maintaining user autonomy. I really appreciate the version control features and change log.
What do you dislike about the product?
There really isn't much I dislike, but if I'm extra critical, it would be that there's no option to flip the menu navigation. So when I use Miro on my iPad, being left-handed, the menu nav is on my left side instead of right. It would be nice to have the option for left-handed folks so my experience is more seamless. Also there is a lot going on in the menu navigation and I feel the options could be reduced to reduced overwhelm.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving and simplifying complex problems. So being able to dump all my thoughts somewhere and organize them on a Miro board has been a game changer. Having the ability to import images to create mood boards quickly is another great benefit.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is an absolute game changer. They also provide an extensive library of templates for different diagrams and boards to use to organize your information. Highly recommend it.

Best Brainstorming Program for remote teams
What do you like best about the product?
I was introduced to this program as an instructional designer looking for an online collaboration space to do needs assessment with my subject matter experts. Generally we do this in person with sticky notes on the wall and move everything around. My SMEs are not really fans of technology, and so selling them on an online collaboration space wasn't the easiest sell. But, now they're all about using Miro. We use it for: curriculum design (overall), individual program development (mind mapping), program retrospectives (agile). It's a wonderful way for us to work together.
What do you dislike about the product?
So, if I were in house at one company, Miro is perfect.
However, as an independent consultant, Mural has a few features that Miro doesn't like consultant licenses, to help keep the data separated, online timers, and anonymous mode. I think it might be a better option to use Mural for people who ave mutliple clients OR who facilitate a lot of VILT.

Curriculum Design
Brainstorming concepts
Program storyboarding
Agile ceremony notes
I'd previously done this in files like word and then shared to Dropbox or Google docs. Miro is easier to see immediately who is working on what and doesn't have the corruption issues I see with Word/Dropbox.

Excellent collaboration tool
What do you like best about the product?
The simple tools like post-its have been among the most useful, for everything from team building workshops to product discovery and ideation sessions. But I do like the mapping tools and templates as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really ever pay attention to the onboarding and notifications.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro has helped us solve the problem of ideation and teamwork while remote. We've been working remotely for over a year, and Miro has probably been the most critical tool we use in helping us to continue to collaborate and ideate in teams.
It helps us to brainstorm on our problems thanks to its large canvas and extensive tools.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the drawing tools, even though they can be improved. It helps us to explain ourselves, like quickly drawing on a piece of paper. However, we would like to see the support for an eraser that can erase a part of a drawing piece, instead of completely removing it on contact.
What do you dislike about the product?
We would like to see a more stable video chat. We want to work on Miro without depending on any other software on our online meetings. However, it almost always forces us to use different virtual meeting software since it frequently disconnects users. Also, it would greatly help if you improved prototyping tools, especially for mobile app development. We tried to use Miro as our primary prototyping tool, but bringing in visual assets is cumbersome. For example, an integration with flaticon.com would be awesome. We also would like to see an option to save text formats for a quick use. Like the three saved pen tips inside pen tool, having an option to save different formatted text input under text tool would be quite helpful. We usually copy/paste the existing texts to use the same format. If we had the option to save the format as a favorite, it would increase our productivity greatly, since we repeatedly use text inside our boards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is easier to communicate on our work that sometimes requires explaining visually, by writing or drawing. It is a lifesaver through the pandemic since we all work remotely now. We use Miro to discuss on our mobile development. We use it to work on our backend solutions as well as to brainstorm on frontend design.

Think outside of the box! This is a versatile tool that can add value in a variety of applications.
Miro is changing the way my firm does client engagement
What do you like best about the product?
Miro offers an engaging and interactive way to brainstorm, draw, and discuss ideas in a live virtual environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it challenging to collaborate with people on multiple projects when I have a Miro license and they don't. The limit of three boards for a free account is bothersom. I would like there to be a step to allow people to swap boards rather than delete and then accept new boards.
There is also a learning curve that people tend to need to overcome before they engage with the software in depth. I have noviced that people tend to be 'shy' at the beginning of meetings, but by the end they are throwing up sticky notes and drawing arrows all over the place. The Miro experience definitely improves the more you use the software.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Miro allows my firm to engage clients visually, and gives us the ability to record our meetings in real-time. It has been fantastic to watch people enjoy adding information to boards and learning to use the software. It is fun to see people learn the software over the course of a single meeting and then advocate for using it in new ways later on.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I am sorry that I didn't get Miro earlier. It has completely changed the way my team collaborates remotely. Miro allows us to feel more like we are in the same room, around the same sheet of paper, working as a team.
Quick, easy, self-explanatory, great templates
What do you like best about the product?
I love to use it for ideation and remote workshops. Even to summarise/cluster the live workshops and user research
What do you dislike about the product?
I find pricing not necessarily straightforward when I'm inviting new memebers. It seems more complicated than it should be
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team collaboration, making sense of a bunch of data
Recommendations to others considering the product:
go for it
Excellent for collaboration, and business visibility
What do you like best about the product?
Miro boasts a lot of great functionality that helps us host our collaborative UX workshops, with clients or internally. It's easy to get the non-tech-savvy users started with following you around the board, interacting with tasks, and contributing.
One of the major benefits for me as a workshop facilitator, is the Miro user community and Miroverse resource. It's really useful for learning about new techniques, activities, and board layouts from other users.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the features such as tables and text boxes can be clunky to format. There are also some issues around long-term sharing with clients, and I've not found a way to transfer ownership of boards to clients (especially if they don't have a premium Miro account). Still, these can be overcome with work-arounds such as exporting to image/pdf and hosting elsewhere. But on the whole, it's a great product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The big problem that Miro helps us solve is bringing stakeholders from different teams together to work on projects, create shared visions, and co-create to solve their problems.
It works with big or small teams collaborate across the product development board, from discovery, to user/customer research, page flows, basic wireframing, and also for presenting findings.

MIRO Maximizes Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
The ability for participants to actively use this without having to speak. The engagement of introverts is key here. The tools are relatively simple but powerful. Also, the potential for integrations with other tools (MS Teams, JIRA, Confluence etc) has great potential to become a true knowledge gathering tool and knowledge base.
What do you dislike about the product?
Soo many templates, it is like a sandwich bar where everyone can make their own sandwich and then put it on the menu. Where there is TOO much selection users can potentially become intimidated by it and shut it down or shut down.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Business Analysis Framework creation and brainstorming
Process analysis
Research on MIRO and usage patterns
Facilitation approach strategy.
Benefits Realized:
- better engagement
- better memory / bookmarking of where we left off easily
- the template is not the process (map is not the territory)

Great app for remote collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
The sharing screen/following function. It is excellent for remote workshops.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some exports/imports could work better. I see Miro as my working desk, so it would be great to be able to have everything I need in there, like Google docs and figma files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Crossteam collaboration and remote work for a team that has always worked on site. Sketching product ideias in a more loose way.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is the best tool, either for collaboration or to make sense of your own ideas!
