Miro helps collaborative thinking and visualization

4.0 last year

Comments: Miro has greatly simplified our ability to efficiently prepare for and address issues with current initiatives. It has reduced the need for back-and-forth emails by providing a more engaging medium for sharing information.

Pros:

One of the best things about using miro is that it's just like having a virtual whiteboard to write down and draw out your thoughts. We can collaborate, plan, etc. virtually as my team is all overseas.

Cons:

However, Miro could improve this service by adding smart groups and data grouping and upgrading live conversation video.

A fun collaboration space that people actually enjoy

5.0 2 months ago New

Comments: I love it, and still use it in addition to other applications like Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, and Figma. I find myself trying to do more than I need to in Miro, which is a good sign for what they're doing.

Pros:

Super easy to create idea boards, show research, and keep everything in one spot. I love inviting members of my team to collaborate in a Miro doc. It's quite an interactive experience.

Cons:

Miro is slowly becoming much more than just a collaboration space. I find the bloat in the software slows things down as they update their app. Similar to how Canva is for those who can't use Adobe. Miro is becoming like a Figma for those who want to explain how to better the user experience. I'd love to see more animation and transition functionality similar to what Figma has. It would help keep the collaboration more exciting.

I regret our decision to buy Miro

3.0 2 years ago

Comments: I was part of the team which selected Miro for one client, and I regret not fighting harder against the decision to buy it.

Pros:

Miro is a nice tool for collaborative whiteboarding and its main advantage is that it's becoming somewhat ubiquitous, which is helpful when working across multiple teams and companies, as I do.

Cons:

I consider Miro to be more of a hindrance than a help to my work, mostly because of the obstructive, slow, and "clicky" user interface.

Alternatives Considered:

Great tool for collaboration - could use minor ease-of-use adjustments

4.0 4 months ago

Comments: This is a great planning and drafting tool for a team that desires flexibility and a less restrictive collaboration experience. The visuals are fun and engaging in a way that adds to the client experience when conducting exercises with external parties, as well. Some additional duplication and connection features would speed up the mapping process, however with time users become accustomed to the functionality and, overall, the tools are quite workable.

Pros:

The navigation between screens and shared viewing/user tracking are extremely intuitive and allow for co-working without requiring a restrictive experience via single-user screenshare.

Cons:

The text organization and merging of mapping items could be more intuitive. For users that are particular about the cleanliness of their visuals, expect to take some time to revisit your work to create a uniform experience.

Miro is the perfect tool for teams working on group web pages and email workflows

5.0 last month New

Comments: Overall, Miro has been helpful in creating templates for landing pages as well as outlining our overall structure for how we want our marketing inbound workflows to work.

Pros:

Miro makes it super easy to work on team planning designs, whether it's visual charts outlining website and email workflows or designing web pages for feedback from multiple team members.

Cons:

Some of the design elements in Miro aren't all that customizable such as font selection or adjusting the border radius of shapes.

Empowering Collaboration and Creativity with Miro: A Versatile Visual Workspace

5.0 last month New

Comments: A powerful tool for brainstorming sessions leading to detailed project planning.
One pit stop for the team working remotely to access any project related planning.

Pros:

A vital tool for remote teams, enabling effective brainstorming sessions, project tracking, and strategic planning without the need for physical whiteboards.

Cons:

Good for online users but in terms of offline the usage is quite limited. Only basic export functionality available for free plan users whereas advanced features only available for the premium users.

I like the sharing aspect and the whiteboard

Miro is the operating system for a creative distributed team

5.0 8 months ago

Comments: Miro fast become our essential collaboration tool to maintain creativity and innovation as we scaled across the world with people in over 20 countries.

Pros:

Miro is a fantastic tool with numerous use cases for a global distributed team who is focused on staying connected. Without Miro, we do our entire OKR planning cycle which is complex processed orientated. After using many tools, Miro was the tool that our team used and validated. We use Miro for BPM across the business and we also use the collaborative power of Miro for creative brainstorming, giving our team a voice and satisfying that creative need across the business. The Miro community templates are also a massive value add giving inspiration and ideas on how to tackle a process design.

Cons:

The only con for Miro is sometimes the time it takes to build maps if you are building yourself. With mind meister, you could use shift and it would automatically create more spaces in the mind map which really helps when you are brainstorming with ideas coming freely. With Miro, sometimes it takes time to build the actual map and this can prohibit the quality of brainstorming.

Can't imagine life without Miro

5.0 last year

Comments: Miro is an indispensable tool for me. It has streamlined collaboration, enhanced productivity and fueled innovation in ways that I never imagined. Miro is critical to my business and work, and I recommend it for anyone seeking a powerful, user-friendly, collaborative platform to bring together their teams and amplify creative capabilities.

Pros:

Miro has been a game-changer in my professional life. It's collaborative whiteboard features have seamlessly integrated into my workflow, enabling me to work with clients and colleagues around the country. Whether it's brainstorming sessions, organizing thoughts, or structuring strategies, Miro has been a linchpin of productivity and creativity for me.

Cons:

It can be difficult to manage board access for people who aren't a part of your team. Miro offers view-only access, but I've run into trouble getting editable access for non-users.

I like everything about Miro. I love its organized whiteboard that has all the ready-made elements that help us complete the boards as we need them. I love the ease of gathering approvals from team members before approving the final plan. It is great that Miro allows us to participate in real-time remotely efficiently, and this helps us keep the flow of updates going.

Pros:

Miro has so many digram templates, it has so many tools which can use while we have been working on flow diagrams Miro's UX experience is very easy to use and team coloration features is too good

Good way to share and work with others

4.0 last year

Comments: We use Miro for all our meetings, it's best choice collaboration tool for brainstormings, mapping, customer journey design, mostly used for this even if the tools offers a good and simple task management tool with also assignation. But the best use we make of this tools is always for meetings, sharing info, notes, brainstorming, clustering and solution sharing. It's very difficult we can change for other tools.

Pros:

The collaboration within this product is very effective, nontheless the good amount of possibilities to share comments, notes, links, images and the intuitive use of the tools present give us good moment since we are mostly remote workers. We use it for all kind of meetings from brainstormings to task management, but we surely prefer use it for brainstormings than for showing static contents.

Cons:

The most met problem is rendering time, I suppose there are a specific set of settings for the board, but it makes screen sharing very tedious sometimes, using the desktop app sometimes solves the problem but even passing from a tab to another make people nervous.

It is an invaluable collaborative software

5.0 last year

Comments: Visual ideas are very easy to represent in Miro. This has allowed us to expose ideas better and spend little effort on communication. It has also been a way to create fairly complete prototypes.
We also often invite clients to see the first steps of commissioned projects so they can comfortably give feedback.

Pros:

It is not necessary to download the app to use Miro. Inviting unfamiliar people is an excellent opportunity because it makes it easier for them. Also, it generates a lot of confidence in not having to install it if you don't know it. It is also a scalable and flexible software. From a couple of users to ten or more can collaborate without affecting functionality.

Cons:

The way of sorting the tabs feels very clumsy. It's impossible to save them in folders or sort them to make them more accessible according to individual needs, which sometimes makes me uncomfortable.

A Deep Dive into Miro's Visual Collaboration.

5.0 last year

Comments: Miro provides a highly visual and intuitive platform that enables teams to collaborate effectively, allowing for brainstorming, planning, and organizing ideas in a visual format. So personally I enjoy using Miro and I have recommended it to other people as well.

Pros:

The platform's real-time collaboration features facilitate simultaneous work among team members, fostering quick updates, discussions, and feedback exchange. Miro's allows for various use cases, from project management and agile workflows to design thinking, allowing for diverse templates and frameworks. Enables teams to brainstorm, plan, and organize ideas in a visual format.

Cons:

Some times as boards grow in size or complexity, the performance might decrease, leading to slower load times or potential lags in responsiveness. Beginners might initially find Miro's interface and features slightly overwhelming, requiring some little time to get use to it.

Miro is a robust workspace for uniting teams during projects.

5.0 last year

Comments: Using Miro has been a journey full of success and our investment on this product is bearing us great fruits. We have been able to develop a very productive culture of working on and managing our projects. With Miro, we are able to visualize our work when developing games and this helps us get focused on building very effective and well designed games for our projects.

Pros:

Miro unites us when at our workplace by giving us an excellent shared workspace where we collaborate on our games development projects. It also allows us to have clear visualization of the entire games development cycle from planning to the final product. We love using it as it help us organize and plan our work using gantt charts, flowcharts and other product maps. We mainly benefit by staying committed and focused on the right and most important work. It gives us easy to use dashboards where we are able to visualize all our tasks by drawing diagrams to represent them.

Cons:

Miro interface is a little complicated and we actually struggled a bit to understand it. But we are glad how the support team took us through the entire journey and they made everything get easier for us.

Miro is a resourceful tool for planning and managing work.

5.0 last year

Comments: We have been getting the best experience with Miro one which we have never complained about. It allows us to bring our projects on tabs which allows us to take control over what happens and when. It allows to monitor project work and compare them with the plans to see whether we are heading to the right direction. This allows us to finish projects within the budget and timelines.

Pros:

Miro has become a part and parcel of our daily work and the reason for this is how incredible it is in helping us manage our workflow. It gives us all the resources we need to formulate excellent work plans which includes Gannt charts to help us perform our work strategically. And to make it even better, Miro allows us to come together as a team and collaborate on our tasks which is an exceptional way of ensuring work efficiency and productivity.

Cons:

Miro has many great features which are all easy to use. However, with such a back load of features, the dashboard does not look clean and can be confusing at times.

An excellent workspace that values collaboration.

5.0 last year

Comments: The experience to use Miro during our projects has been breath-taking in terms of the results we have seen. Since we started using it, we can brag of how easy it has become to plan and manage our projects from the beginning to completion.

Pros:

Using Miro to facilitate our projects has been so far our greatest achievement and we love it how we could use it easily any time we need to. Miro has tight security so no chances of loosing any project related file. It is very flexible and allowed us to set it up in our own way which we felt could make it more useful to us. Miro Gantt charts has been very reliable in scheduling our project work. Another thing we find useful is how it help us to connect and share files and information easily and securely. Plus, being able to track our project progress has been of huge importance to us.

Cons:

Nothing in particular. Miro has been superb in what it does and we cannot complain literally about anything.

Miro Review

5.0 3 months ago

Comments: Miro is so much fun, very productive, and overall just an amazing experience. Being able to collaborate with others fluidly in real time is easily done in Miro, and that strength makes this software captivating.

Pros:

The creative boundaries that Miro pushes are sky high, allowing the user to make the most of their desired experience.

Cons:

The eraser tool is what I liked least about Miro. It erases entire strokes of lines instead of just the portions you want to erase.
