Miro Reviews & Product Details

The posibility of agroup my board on projects

Some features don´t work so well. Example: voting

Define projects and collaboration

Miro is visually pleasing, colorful, and fun. It makes working together possible in ways we did not have in our toolbox before. It's easy to get people excited with new projects having a well-prepared funky Miro board. I like having infinite space to work on, so I can make sure everything fits.

The lagging performance, especially with large boards with a lot of elements. I wish there were a better spreadsheet-like feature. Selecting elements is sometimes quite confusing, running a risk of a participant accidentally (re)moving objects.

Planning and brainstorming remotely. Working together simultaneously.

I like the freedom Miro gives you (it´s a whiteboard where you can customize it as you want). The best part of Miro is sharing the board with a link, and people don´t need to be a member of Miro to edit. I used for all my projects as a UX designer: to run workshops, organize my tasks and run briefs meetings. Amazing!

There is nothing I dislike. If I need to say something, I will say the feature of video calls didn´t work properly when I used, so I now I always try to avoid these feature using other video call software and share my screen.

I used it for my UX projects: to run workshops, create flow charts, experience maps, organize assignments, and create the projects plan. The best is that it can be shareable, and we can use it in Teams with the clients!

With the transition to full remote, my development team was struggling to map out all requirements and details needed to release new features on time. We were finding out too late in the sprint cycles that areas were being missed and details were not fully captured at the start. As a product owner, this was my worst nightmare, so I scrambled to find a solution that would allow my team to brainstorm and whiteboard together while in a remote working environment. Miro came to our rescue and provided the platform missing to allow my team the ability to "whiteboard it out" again. I took on the task of learning Miro so I could create boards and facilate meetings successfully. I have had to learn a lot of softwares throughout my years and I must say I was super impressed with Miro's training videos, learning academy, and online community; all videos, FAQ's, and training materials are truly top notch. I also attended a live webinar that gave me the foundational skills needed to get started. I found creating boards to be relatively user friendly and intuitive. There was a bit of a learning curve figuring out how to naviagate the board and learning the different tools available and how to use said tools, however I was able to get up to speed relatively quickly. I enjoyed utilizing the various templates available from the community and editing them to fit my needs. It was a great time saver to have a template to start from and some of the templates provided unique ideas for facilating different types of meetings that I would have never thought of myself. I was also able to share a quick "how to" video to my team prior to our Miro workshop which gave folks confidence to begin participating right from the start. The very first workshop I hosted utilizing a Miro board was an absolute success which I attribute to all of the learning/training tools Miro provides. I received extremely positive feedback from all of my team members and even though we have only been using Miro for a short time now, I have seen vast improvements to our productivity and keeping to our release schedule. I have also seen improvements in innovation and problem solving on my team, as well as increased participation in meetings that we have moved over to using Miro boards for.

When many individuals are on a board simultaneously, board elements can become slow to load, especially if there are many elements on the board. However, loading slowness has not affected our ability to host successful meetings. When individuals first join the board, it seems to start at a very zoomed-out view, and participants have found that to be confusing; I would prefer that participants are placed into the board with a focus on the first frame. I do wish Miro had a way to store meeting notes with the added ability to conduct keyword searches within multiple instances of said meeting notes. I also wish there was the option to add subfolders to Projects to allow organization of different boards within a Project more efficiently. I would love to see the ability to create new board elements such as custom shapes, icons, and frames easier. My workaround has been locating a template that has a similar shape/frame/icon and then editing it to adjust to my needs, I would much prefer to create board elements from scratch a bit easier than having to try and co-opt something else.

Miro solves the problem of brainstorming and collaborating while working in a remote environment. Miro has provided my team the platform needed to brainstorm not only synchronously but asynchronously as well. Miro also has the added benefit that an office whiteboard doesn't have, which is that all work is saved in a board and doesn't need to be erased to allow space for different whiteboarding / sticky note mapping sessions to take its place. Miro has many templates that provide creative and effective meeting hosting and facilitating tools and the online community is active and full of individuals with great ideas and innovative solutions. While we have only been using Miro for a short time now, I have seen vast improvements to our productivity and keeping to our release schedule. I have also seen improvements in innovation and problem solving on my team, as well as increased participation in meetings that we have moved over to using Miro boards for.

The amount of Models ready to used, and the seamless experience we have on the platform

Maybe more options to export files, and not put some behind a subscription model

I'm solving user experience design challenges with my colleagues. The boards we already have, and collaboration tools are beneficial.

Ease of use and abundance of templates available

Easy to make mistakes which can be corrected

Being able to collaborate with my team virtually

Fast implementation of ideas Sharing board with different options UX is very is easy to use Inexpensive

Not sure. Maybe a functionality to embed video conference calling with Google Meet.

Running Workshops efficiently at a distance Ideation workshops Modeling design thinking scenarios Simple wireframing

Realtime collaboration, Support for RTL languages, Digraming tool that actually looks presentable to clients, Soo many apps and shourtcuts included, Great for remote work

Lack of a Figma integration to pull artboards directly from files.

Remote design sprints, Mindmaps, Ideations, Digraming of any sort (mainly: App-Flows and Journey maps)

An intuitive User interface, Built-in templates, Organization using projects / boards, great permission model to share with your team

To be honest, I don't dislike anything in Miro.

I have used Miro to share complex ideas and the flow of the application that I was building with the team, especially business folks. Also, extensively used to draw, note-taking, and share the board with different teams during the knowledge transfer when I switched my job.

Board, post its, comments, visualization, unlimited space in one board

When I have used a lot of space on the board sometimes, I find it hard to find where I was. I want to update to premium, but premium costs are quite high.

Easy to communicate ideas with mind maps. Easy to evaluate product features and get feedback from the team. Miro has helped us work remotely with team members.

I now like the integrations with other software best: JIRA, Confluence, Zoom, Teams - a single working space is near to complete!

I find the export options could be a little more intuitive, in particular I sometimes need to export individual frames to PDF rather than the whole board.

Helping deliver joined-up Healthcare through modern technology products, Miro helps explore use cases and visualise and solve problems.

Miro is a very useful collaborative tool. It took me few hours to start using Miro like a pro. Working on a design thinking project remotely with other colleagues in different parts of the world, I found Miro to be easy to use, user friendly and so adaptable.

Miro slow to load when page is overloaded with high quality images, gifs etc.

Digital interview download is very efficient and Miro is good for documentation

Collaboration at its best using Miro. Our users greatly appreciate it and love it—some of our faculty using it with a class of more than 100 online students.

I like it all. All the features that we are using are very helpful.

We needed a solution for better collaboration and tried to shop around and found Miro. It is real value for money.

I always love to use the Miro due to its beauty of connectn multiple boards where internal dependencies, external dependencies, risks and issues are cleary called out.

Not seen anything specific. Highly satfisfied with the usae of Miro.

Especially due to remote working, Miro is becoming very efficient and effective as we feel all are at same location and working toether.

I really love the tools as Mind Map and Flowchart, they helped a lot to make my work

The only thing that really bothers me is the fact that there are few options to choose from icons apps (compared to other softwares like Figma, sketch, and XD). Also, there is no option to recolor the icon

With Miro, I can unite information and do all the parts of research, study, and structure of the UX logic in one software what really helps to show and explain all my ideas and resolutions

miro is an extremely easy tool to use. it can be used for many purposes and functions. in our case we started using miro to replace the classic whiteboard during the covid period. later we started to use miro also to design diagrams related to customer jorney and customer interactions with our points of contact. one of the advantages of miro in my opinion is the possibility to interact "really" in real time. the whole team can enter comments and modify the whiteboard in a very collaborative way.

As i wrote in the title the tool is perfect. rarely happened to find a platform so well made. If i really have to point out some aspects that could be improved: 1) with the free plan you can only have three private boards. this is actually a pretty strict limit, but it is still acceptable considering that it is the free version. maybe you could think of giving a trial period during which these limits are not there. 2) It would be nice if you could start a video call directly from miro or if you could use it with MS teams or Google meet. I saw that an integration with zoom was recently released. It would be helpful to replicate what was done with Zoom with teams and G meet as well. 3) maybe it could be useful to introduce a versioning of the whiteboard to keep track of changes made. so you could recover an element maybe deleted by mistake.

We started using miro to replace the "old" whiteboard during the covid period. After that, we also used it as a brainstorming tool to gather ideas, to work on the customer journey. Extremely convenient is also the lack of extension limits of the whiteboard. this allows those who have the free plan to be able to create very large whiteboards and thus manage the limit of 3 editable boards. With Miro today we have a tool that simplifies and speeds up a lot of our work. We will no longer be able to work without Miro. The tool is also very useful because it allows us to share the board with external guests, limiting their ability to modify the content.

Miro is a great tool for remote teams to think and work together. We use it with meetings a lot and surprisingly it helps us sitting and working together as if we are in the same place. Moreover, it is a great tool for product discovery. You can quickly create a board and place almost every detail in your mind to think and develop your next product.

I wish it has a better video-chat option

It is an important tool for my product development cycle, I use it a lot for discovery, brain-storming, and meeting

We started using Miro within our Product team for workshopping and collaboration (we're a remote first company). Its such an easy to use tool that we're now using it across the organizations for all sorts of purposes. They keep adding decent new features regularly and Miroverse is a great new addition for inspiration.

The organizations of boards is a little clunky and could be better. As our usage has grown, thats becoming a small inconvenience!

As a remote first team (even pre-pandemic) with colleagues across all timezones its given us a platform to work together and asynchronously in a free form manner. The unstructured nature of it encourages creative thinking over a spreadsheet or doc.

The ease of using the dashboard to collect your ideas and organize them

Mixing mouse commands. We are used to using google maps and the like and it would be ok to have the same pattern.

Capitalizing the work done over several meetings into one single spot.

Very strong graphicly - very easy to use - Ability for Brainstorming sessions - Quick presentation making - Keen , passionate team , ready to help

The shapes are linited and are not customizable (cannot add nodes and edit them)

All project team are in one board, brainstorming. Specially during pandemic, miro gave us the opportunity for group discussion about design and pin ups
