Miro makes my work easier
What do you like best about the product?
Is an agile, intuitive and flexible tool that allows to work with a lot of information in a visual and clear way. I use it A LOT in research phases as a research wall to centralize information from many sources which also facilitates collaboration between team members.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you or someone in your team delete something by mistake on the board, you don't have "auto savings" to restore previous versions, you have to download backups manually just in case.
And another pain, but less important is that if you put a lot of info, the page takes some time to load.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All in one place: Instead of having a lot of documents related with a project, now I put all the info on a board making it easy to find and work with it.
Share on real time: the team can see in real time the status of my research/work.
Team collaboration: Facilitates collaboration between team members by having a common place to work.
In your way: You have a lot of templates and tools to put the info in the way you want, there are no limits.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I encourage you to try the tool and see how useful it can be for your organization. I don't know of any other more complete tool on the market.
Easier to use than I thought
What do you like best about the product?
The easy access to the board for the client I'm working with. You just press the "Share" button, copy the board link and voilà! It is really straight forward and clients who had never used Miro before were not confused at all. It matters a lot because if they find it confusing it will affect the whole session I'm facilitating. So this is crucial to me.
What do you dislike about the product?
The mindmap canvas could be improved a bit. The way it is now, it occupies a lot of space. Not that there is a lack of space, but I prefer when the branches are closer together.
It's a bit annoying when users inadvertently move frames because they simply hook the button of their mouse over the frame.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With the pandemia, I had to find a way to work with group of clients with which I usually meet in a conference room equiped with various white boards. I now have all the space I need AND I can easily save a copy of all the board I'm creating.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't let all the available features scare you. It is quite user friendly.
The best tool I have found in a long time
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is a great tool to organize your ideas, share them with others and build knowledge together. Being able to see all the changes that have been done by others. To follow the cursors of other participants in real time. To be able to present the maps as a presentation and to share it while being in online meetings.
What do you dislike about the product?
Everything is amazing. I have no complaints whatsoever

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work in education and it has helped me to organize the curriculum, teach complexity to my students, and explore their ideas
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is the best tool I have found in a very long time. It allows me to organize and share my ideas in a visual way. I love that I can use images, videos and links to illustrate the concepts that we are talking about.
Completely changed the way we work
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is so incredibly easy to use. We onboarded all of our product teams and they took to Miro like ducks to water. It's so easy to get the stuff in your head out onto a Miro board. The templates make it even easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
The voice chat can be unstable at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Because there's plenty of space, Miro boards are truly common spaces where different teams can toss out data and sketches and diagrams without worrying about messing up somebody else's spreadsheet or Google Doc. We make a Miro board for each project where all briefing, data transfer and collaboration is done.
Makes it so much easier to visualise work!
What do you like best about the product?
How customisable everything is, I never feel locked into a particular way of working. It also allows for people with different learning and working styles to collaborate on one piece of work, as no one feels locked into a 'just text' or 'just imagery' format. I also like that I can use Miro as a digital whiteboard, especially since we've been adapting to new ways of working this year. I used to be skeptical that a single tool could function effectively for digital collaboration and decision making, but Miro has really knocked it out of the park. I've even found ways to use this for work-related ice breakers and team-building activities which is really nice.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are times the selecting function can be frustrating, where it will grab a huge chunk of my work and move it. Although, this could be misusing it. Due to the amount of choices available to show information in Miro, it can be a bit overwhelming to decide the best way to present or organise your work. I 'd love to see more variation in the pre-existing templates, as I've never felt like a template has been right for my use without quite a bit of customising first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving the issues I had visualising how the structure of my projects would look. Using Miro has made it much easier for me to pick up on potential issues earlier due to this. Again, it's also made digital collaboration and brainstorming much, much easier which has really helped how we all work as a team.
A didactic and well-processed work tool
What do you like best about the product?
It is a tool that assists in the process of designing mocks, workflow control, collaborative teaching methods, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, I have liked the Miro tool. It makes the work much easier for a team assigned to a project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has helped me manage my work by using boards to track deliveries through a work sprint, maintaining control of both the UX tool and using post-its to keep track of activities in a didactic way.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a simple platform to use, educational, and segments easy to use.
Miro is the dark horse of remote work
What do you like best about the product?
It's intuitive yet gives you freedom to create with very few limitations. I love collaborating across the platform and also building unique, bespoke virtual experiences using the platform for people to utilise without the need for advanced coding or complex software to make it work.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't make an element (such as a shape) into a click-and-go button or embed GIFs or webpages without having to press a 'play' button. I also wish that if I lock objects that the borders of the objects would be invisible instead of outlined.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving problems regarding remote work and collaboration, and also redefining what a virtual engagement experience looks like for students and staff.
Excellent tool for working collaboratively
What do you like best about the product?
It has very flexible tools and allows you to see what others are working on and what the latest modifications were that each person made in your absence. Another useful feature is that you can insert your own images and work on them. The design tool templates and their respective examples are very useful and allow for modifications. They can also be enriched with icons or post-its.
The initial tutorial to understand how to use the tool is of adequate length and, in general, the platform is quite intuitive to use.

What do you dislike about the product?
I think it wasn't very intuitive how to select many elements. Later I discovered that it was by combining drag click with shift. The other thing that was difficult for me was understanding the proportions of the elements on the board, for example, I put a box and when I start writing I realize it's huge because the text looks very small.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During the pandemic, it was a challenge to reinvent team work dynamics. This platform helped us to plan and then develop complete projects. From the research stage to the stage of solution prototype proposals. This is possible because they have many different tools to insert on the board, and the size of this board is infinite. This allows all documents, ideas, information, and proposals to be in one place and fully accessible to the team.
Miro is a great tool for design sprints and remote working sessions
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use and versatile. I can share my work with other designers and clients. I can start from scratch or use templates to start a work session.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes somebody shares with me a board just to take a look at any idea and it seems to be added to mi own boards. All of a sudden I have too many boards and it is really hard to remove them. It takes too many steps. Maybe the boards shared with me could be some way appart from the ones I created.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can easily share my work or have remote work sessions in a very easy way. Miro helps me think in a visual way and then I can come back to it and keep growing the ideas.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a very useful tool. It brings a simple way of exploring visual thinking, making your projects grow. It also has a beautiful look and feel, cute images and very trendy interactions. It works well and has a very smart design.
Miro great for architecture pinups
What do you like best about the product?
I really like how versatile miro is and how it is very straight forward by uploading all sorts of media. It made it easier to let other people all over the world to view ur images and files.
What do you dislike about the product?
The limit on file sizes. Sometimes if I upload a 300dpi image it fails to upload on Miro. Additionally, sometimes when you’re off the page, the things you upload sometimes don’t sync through and you have to reupload. Additionally, when uploading multiple files, the way the files spread out to the right is too much. The files should be tighter or possibly collated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It’s a very accessible way for others to view your work and zoom in and out and leave stickies for notes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure file sizes are not too big, and consider uploading jpeg instead of pdf if trying to view CAD drawings.
