Miro Reviews & Product Details

Miro makes it easy to work on a digital whiteboard. The user interface is intuitive, making the typical next step super simple. When working with sticky notes, pressing tab creates a new one. When working with cards, pressing tab creates a new one. The developers are thinking like their users! I use it ever chance I can when a conversation starts to get complex.

Some of the color restrictions can be a little limiting at times.

Miro is solving the following for me and my teams around the world: User Story Mapping Dialogue Mapping Design thinking Threat Modeling Other IT Solutions Architecture workshops

The amazing ability to collaborate in real time with coworkers anywhere in the world. Being able to watch my team diagram a project out while we're all on the board is so helpful. You can also copy boards/diagrams/anything as an image for extremely easy sharing. The recent addition of AI features has been a gamechanger as well, and makes it infinitely more useful to me and my team.

I feel like there ought to be more integrations sometimes, but most of those are coming over time. Sometimes, the integrations that do exist are a bit wonky, but it's never anything that makes me not wanna use the product.

It's a way to diagram and wireframe that's both intuitive to everyone I've brought onto a board, and packed with functionality. A lot of times, solutions will either be so complicated that it becomes difficult to use, or so simple that the problem isn't actually solved despite the clean interface. Miro hits the happy medium very well.

It's super versatile, you can practically do almost anything with it. I use it for business processes, wireframes and all sorts of uses.

One small thing that can be fixed is the auto align of slides for presentation mode.

Miro is helping my visualize to the teams that I'm working with my thought process, allowing a place where we can work together online and offline

I like how many use cases Miro is equipped to handle, and the templates that they provide to get you started. As a product manager, I utilize Miro for brainstorming parts of product strategy and prioritization. Additionally, I've used it across various functions in the course of product discovery and development. Whereas its competitors are clunky and complicated, Miro is intuitive, even to new users that I include in collaborative sessions. Also, their free plan gives you a comprehensive sense of how you can utilize it. Lastlly, I appreciate the resources and community that Miro has created.

Their pricing can be tricky to figure out for smaller companies that are trying to cut costs in the current economic climate. You must pay for every seat on your team, which resulted in me rearranging team members and needing to consider who really required a seat vs being a guest on the free plan.

Miro solves the need for visual collaboration across our remote-first organization. It directly enables me to do my best work and quickly arrive at the insights I require to improve our product.

I love how easy it is to set up a new board at any impromptu moment in a meeting, enabling our team to work collaboratively on the fly. Which, means we can capture all of our thoughts and insights so clearly and quickly. So useful for planning, capturing ideas and collaboration.

I find that it's quite hard to use Miro from an accessibility point of view. I have some team members with poor eyesight who does stuggle with Miro and that can affect their confidence with the tool.

We use Miro templates to capture all ideas and discussions, I use this in our Co-Design sessions to keep us all on track and to having divergent converstations. Miro is a brilliant tool to use to map out thoughts as the emerge. I also use this for Retros, Google Sprints and Planning.

I often have to work with cloud-based systems where colleagues come up with complex designs and plans. This has proved a good tool for Miro. The many templates and features they offer make it straightforward for us to implement our ideas visually. It’s a big advantage that it gives me freedom to use it along with other products with which I work. Additionally, the visualization helps my team organizes the complex workflows, simplifying the collaboration on different activities.

Sometimes, when working with big boards, the download is slow which affects the screen experience of the viewer. Furthermore, I also believe that even archiving has its limitations and that there should be a better alternative for local caching when you are starting a new board.

Miro offers a centralized forum for brainstorming and outlining the solutions for cloud-based problems. It reduces the process of communicating intricate system designs with my teams mates for all of us to be on the same page.

What I like most is the fact that I can create worflows and share them with the team and the client in a simple way. Very simple to use and with many excellent features.

So far I haven't found any aspect that I don't like. It's an excellent product.

I needed to have a tool that would allow me to create procedural flowcharts for my team. I also use it a lot to create the structure of websites and share with clients and the team.

I love the ability of miro to integrated notes, visuals/images and the addition of lines/shapes into one platform. Before I would use the very choppy built in photo edittor on my laptop in order to create visuals for explanation, but now I am able to build and share visuals all from the same platform. This is most helpful when troubleshooting bugs, allowing us to share information across people and time as a form of visual documentation.

The only downside I can imagine is the difficulty in using text. The nearly unlimited scaling of Miro makes it hard to make text fit well sometime, but overall this issue can be troubleshot with some experience

Miro is solving the issue of visual documentation for us. The platform allows us to visualize our data pipelines and connections between platforms/tables in a way that was not easy before. Now it is easy and almost fun to build these visuals.

Easy to understand, many features, easy to share

pricing, a bit, other things looks fine for now

helps to see everything important about the business and brainstorming about new ideas

Businesses often lack process mapping. With MIRO, we have been able to present and make our meetings much more interactive. When we are formulating our problem statement, it is simple to focus on where we have gaps in customer support and how we can implement something more straightforward. I use the MIRO board to explain ideas on a weekly basis, and we also integrate it into our minutes of meetings.

I would like to copy and paste the process as it is, either in Word or PowerPoint. Perhaps I do not know how to use it properly, but when I do that, I only paste words, not boxes and so on.

We easily map the customer journey, describe the steps, the ideas and also I benefit from the clarity. It acts as a nice board to get every one involved.

It offers a blank canvas with freedom to visualize information the way you want to, with plenty of plugins/addons to select from so that you can customize to your liking

Certain tasks and more complicated things require a lot of effort and clicks in order to formulate. We are still missing a good plugin for formulating tables

The freedom to visualize any information you want and provide an environment for remote collaboration to flourish

I really like the "infinite board" concept aligns greatly with the discovery phase of an project. Also the ease of use so I can collaborate directly with the stakeholders.

It does a lot of things but some they're just really bad at (like sheets).

It helps greatly when I need to align different stakeholders POV in a quick and easy way. The multitude of visual tools are just perfect.

The shared workspace and colourful building blocks.

It's not easy to justify the cost of integrating Miro to Jira to my superiors - this holds me back from getting the full value out of it.

It encourages all members in my team to have a voice by contributing to the retrospective boards, even members who can be quiet in our meetings.

MIRO Software has been my go-to collaboration tool for three years, and it's been nothing short of fantastic. Here's why: User-friendly intuitive interface, versatile as it can be used for a variety of purposes, Seamless real-time teamwork collaboration, time-saving features for likes templates and integrations, regular updates and excellent support from the MIRO team. MIRO has transformed how I work and collaborate—an invaluable tool for any team. Highly recommended!

I would prefer more customization options.

Its superhelpful tool for online collaboration and visual thinking

The power of a digital white board that allow you create depending your need. Also you can share and collaborate with other people in real time.

Sometimes it takes too much time to load all the images, post its on the board.

Organize all the visual benchmark from my researches and create user journeys.
