Miro is the best place to portray your ideas and exploit your creativity
What do you like best about the product?
I love the templates, the design, the colors and how it helps improve ideas. I also like how diagrams can be easily made. I also really enjoy the post it options because it makes the canvas look colorful and by creating a color code, it can help distribute the sections all along the brainstorming. I really enjoy the fact that it is free and a ton of things can be achieved thanks to it. It is a very user friendly platform that has improved the creativity process of entrepreneurs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't understand it when I first used it but I got it until a teacher taught me. I also do not like the fact that sometimes when I want to move an icon, the whole figures move. Another thing is that sometimes, text is too small by predeterminate, making sometimes a little difficult to read at first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving a problem regarding anemia and malnutrition. It has helped me start an extraordinary brainstorming, starting from general sections within the problems and then crumbling it into smaller sections. Diagrams I have made in this platform have also improved interviews and surveys made to validate the solution, the prototype and the problem. It has improved the brainstorming process and teamwork organization. It has helped me define the problems I am trying to solve and create an accurate business model. Miro has improved my experience as an entrepreneur. Thanks to Miro, I have been able to work with my team, making our minds fly, exploiting our creativity and enhancing problem solving through a creative way, with the help of diagrams and templates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend you to use a template at first, because it can be a little confusing when starting. Use a lot of colors and make codes with them, for example, when brainstorming, all main problems can be of different colors and each subsection within the problems with alike colors to the main ones, maybe in lighter codes.
Fantastic workshop tool for the remote era
What do you like best about the product?
Simple to use, and very easy to collaborate on Miro. Having multiple team members working on the same board at the same time is fluid and enjoyable. It has meant we don't need a physical room to conduct our product workshops, and has been a massive help during the covid lockdowns
What do you dislike about the product?
Limited boards on the free plan ;-)
Sometimes a few little issues when there are a lot of people using a board at the same time but it is minor. Not a lot to complain about.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem we are solving is collaborating effectively, remotely.
The benefits include, digitisation and access from anywhere to our workshops and artefacts. It is fun to use, it helps prompt your thinking, and encourages creativity

As intuitive as in person
What do you like best about the product?
Responsiveness, you can zoom in or out as much as you can and miro will do everything to make things fit.
Also that you just need to master 3 commands: copy, paste, and undo

What do you dislike about the product?
I would say that sometimes you want to write something in a post it note or move them and suddenly a connector appears, it becomes annoying.
Also when people talks, we prefer to use google meet for audio while facilitating at miro

Miro came to fill in a void created by the sudden change in the work culture
What do you like best about the product?
I can share the link of the boards with anyone in our organization and ask them to jump in and express their points of view or challenge any of the definitions the team made without having to explain how the tool works. I can easily translate the dynamics of being in a room playing around with post-it notes and whiteboards to a fully remote environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
The aesthetics are not my favorite and probably the fact that we had to re-draw all our canvas into this new platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaborating with diverse groups of people, unlocking conversations about how we can address our customers' problems and create business value for our products. Miro is helping our teams by enabling co-creation, communication, maintaining a grade of versatility in the day to day work we do. On of the interesting benefits is that we can leave the workshop virtual room open for longer periods of time, people can come back and keep working or refining the ideas, or simply get up to date with the work done any time.

I super recommend using Miro.
Miro it is a useful tool, that helps collaborate and working with teams remotely.
Look for useful boards models, this could help you to gain some time.

Miro has enabled a high-level of visual communication!
What do you like best about the product?
The templates are extremely helpful to start building out diagrams. I appreciate the snap feature of making connections between various shapes because it enables edits that don't require building the entire diagram. I also like that inviting people to collaborate is simple and doesn't require an account. Most everyone I've invited to collaborate was able to log in and begin work with ease. I also have appreciated the Learn and Inspire page and the tutorials and other guides that it provides. I have taken advantage of these pages several times when I was unsure of how to integrate certain features or how to fully utilize certain templates.
What do you dislike about the product?
One feature that I have found frustrating at times is how the sizing of text functions, specifically with sticky notes. The text appears too big at times, and too small at others. Many times I have run out of room on a sticky note and couldn't complete a thought. While realistic, it would be nice if the note would expand. The number of notifications that appear when I log in can be frustrating at times as the information they are sharing does not always seem relevant. I try to read through them, but often I am not even familiar with the features that have been updated so the notification loses its significance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been able to diagram workflows and large, high-level course designs with collaborators. Trying to do these things in other software programs would be next to impossible, but the easy-to-use nature of Miro allowed me to build out my ideas digitally and share them broadly. I have also seen instances where my peers were able to create highly-engaging group activities using Miro and their item upload feature to generate sticky notes for categorizing. I think this is an activity that I could implement in other areas, but I would need to do some further exploration of how to upload Excel files.
Awesome tool that really foster collaboration, in a fun and easy to use manner
What do you like best about the product?
Miro is incredibly easy and fun to use. In a context of accelerated digitalization of work, using Miro has made it easy for me to run remote workshops, every single time. Even more, I've seen other collaborators keep using Miro not only to collaborate with others, but also as a personal whiteboard and brainstorming tool. That is the best indicator that the tull proved valuable to them.
What do you dislike about the product?
I tend to use tags a lot when preparing a session, to pre-populate notes for different users. I wish there was a way to filter conent on any given tag, to clearly see how different users participated or approached the work. Adding tags to other elements onscreen would be useful too.
Having search within board, and across boards would also make it even greater.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Running online collaboration sessions is the most frequent use. I've run workshops, brainbstorming sessions across departments, and even used it to present at a conference.
However I also use it as a personal notetaking app. It's starting to replace my love for Evernote (10 year user here!!).
Keeping my team in sync is alos a fequent use. I desing an dplan my planing, and share my frames with my team during remote and in person sessions.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
It facilitates remote and in person creative work, by allowing people to collaborate on ideas. It has a really shallow learning curve, work looks great on screen, and it is actually fun to use.
Great tool for team collaboration and individual brainstorming
What do you like best about the product?
Love the ability to do live collaboration sessions. Love the ability to keep expanding the board, i.e. do a quick sticky note session then move straight into wire-framing in the same board. We use Miro both for live sessions, but also as an archive of past planning sessions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost can add up if you need to bring in large numbers of outside contributors. But very cost efficient within our internal team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem we've solved with Miro is having our team collaborate in whiteboard sessions while working remotely. We haven't found another tool that comes as close to replicating the in-person whiteboard experience as Miro.
I also like using Miro for individual brainstorming/mind-mapping. Sometimes it is just easier to throw all the ideas in and be able to arrange and rearrange, vs. working in a doc on or paper.
We've also created a board with all of our website elements as blocks, so our team can use Miro to do quick wireframing sessions.
Overall, I would say that Miro has been one of two tools that have been most instrumental in our team making the switch to working remotely / partially remote.

Why open colaborative tools are going to chage the business INNOVATION
What do you like best about the product?
Miro gave me the chance of working within an open workframe where I could share my ideas, my expectations and my frustrations with my start up coworkers ! Also Miro gave the guidance of all kind of templates to develop not only known methodologies but also to re-invent some of them. And, Finally the Miro integration possibilties with slack, trello , google suite , allowed me to speed up my work in an expoential way !
What do you dislike about the product?
At the moment , there is not a detail on this matter
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mire gave me the workframe to collaborate with others, to move forward from an idea towards a business value proposal and gave the chance to make tangible the co creation with others
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it and you will fall in love!
The magic tool
What do you like best about the product?
I think Miro is an all in one tool. I use Miro for everything in my business. I use it to prepare courses, to plan strategically, to make flowcharts, etc. I recommend it on my website, to my students and my collaborators. I document processes for other businesses and Miro is my flagship tool for making flowcharts. I've used other tools, but Miro gives me "extra" tools and flexibility that I can't find on other platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
To say the least, I think it could include translations into Spanish, for the Spanish-speaking public. I have many clients who are not fluent in English and wish Miro had the option of working in their native language. So Miro would get more clients.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a tool that has everything to solve my business problems and work as a team. I use it to create infographics, diagrams, mind maps, etc., which I then make available to my clients in my training sessions. I also use it for client work and for project management with the Kanban board. I even use it in my personal life - I'm writing a novel and I use it to create the timeline and to plan characters and scenes. So Miro is a tool not only for my business, but also for my personal life. It is the magic tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend Miro to companies or users who need a tool that encompasses many possibilities and allows time to be optimized.
