I love Miro

  • May 04, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Online collaboration
division into artboards
ability to present
post it functionality
cards are great for product planning
voting
ability to paste all formats (especially presentations, PDF and google sheets)
offline syncs
online workshops
Team retrospectives
ability to easily copy-paste artboards between projects and accounts
templates (service design and product ones are really great)
community templates
support centre (great as i use it for training within our team and organisation)
guests collaboration on pwd protected boards. This is great for workshops when one-off collaboration is needed
ability to export boards into various formats, especially PDFs
What do you dislike about the product?
text formatting limitations
Loading issues on some browsers (IE, Safari)
Tables adapt to content inserted but sometimes this can cause the layout to get out of control
would be great to be able to paste in more video formats
(minor) when exporting boards the low quality/small size PDF is too pixelated, would be great to have a compression similar to a small PDF so that the images don't show blurry but the file is manageable
layers would be great, perhaps for advanced users but a way to lock the 'template structures' (e.g. the diagrams and lines) all in one go would be really handy, instead of grouping and then locking which can be time-consuming
love all the rest!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
global collaboration within a large corporate
connecting offshore teams and making them feel like one location
design and product teams collaboration
remote customer research
fast iterations
Recommendations to others considering the product:
better than Mural, worth the investment. Train a few people in your team and then upskill others through collaborative workshops. Keep boards as templates so that you never start from scratch or waste time and repeat/refine the approach for your sessions

Great whiteboarding tool

  • May 04, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
With the flexibility offered by the tool, you can draw whatever you need. This is a great tool for people like me who are very visual. You can quickly and easily whiteboard concepts and then adjust and update the contents. The many templates can also accelerate your adoption of the tool because they give you a great starting point for planning, mind mapping or other charting work. I appreciate the ease at which I can invite anyone to view and edit my board, this makes collaboration with external actors very easy. The ability to use the app online in a browser or in a dedicated app also provides a lot of flexibility. Being able to make and adjust a thumbnail for your boards is a nifty feature as it makes finding past boards very easy when you have a lot of them in your workspace. I've only had to use support once so far and the experience was quick and easy, the team was very helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, adding text to arrows in flow charts can be a bit tricky as there isn't always a visible cursor. I honestly can't think of anything else that is negative other than the free version being perhaps a bit too restrictive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great for building flowcharts or doing story mapping exercises with a group of people. As a remote-first company, Miro is the equivalent to having an empty meeting room with a large whiteboard. The tool makes it really easy to collaborate on a chart with multiple users or to work on quarterly planning using virtual sticky notes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Miro is excellent for digitizing all Post-It notes, notepad graphs, charts, and drawings that we typically accumulate. Instead of screen sharing, providing everyone with access to a board and letting people navigate around on their own as well as make adjustments really enhances collaboration.

This is why I use MIRO. =)

  • May 04, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's pleasing to look at. You don't have to create an account to use it as a visitor. I love the bulk mode. The follow me option is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have difficulty with understading the percentages at the bottom. I'm never sure why it's a certain percentage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm working on developing activity programs. I also use it to map out my own research privately.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Play around with the different functions and get to know it well before using it with clients.

The best tool for creative team work!

  • May 04, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is an amazing tool for creative teams. The fact that you can have a video call and work on the boards in realtime works so well. In our organisation we produce large, complex exhibitions and Miro helps us all have the same understanding of where we're at. We can work both with text and visual production, and when work gets intense, like in the run-up to an opening, the fact that we can send quick comments or confirmations to each other on the board makes the workflow seem supersmooth.
The presentation-tool works really well - you make frames directly on the board, and you can custom your frames to suit your presentation needs. This was everybody is looking at the same area of the board when you are working remotely.
Collegues who are not involved in the main project production are able to have a look around on the Miro-board and quickly get an understanding of both core-elements and an overview of the complexities of the project, and pick out the bits that are relevant to them.
Yeah, cannod reccomend this enough.
What do you dislike about the product?
If there was anything to dislike is the cost. But it's worth it! You pay for a yearly subscription and after that per seat on the board.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problems we are solving has to do with the various levels of large scale exhibition-productions. Without Miro it is difficult to get a grasp of the complexity and many levels of understanding, but in Miro you could do a quick sketch on a board to explain your meaning. Just like picking up a pen and paper to explain an idea in 3D quickly. This is essencial in our workplace.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would reccomend people in the museumworld to have a go at using Miro as a collaborative tool. It is so vísual so it serves the purpose really well when you ar working with visual production.

Unearth real insights through Miro collaboration

  • May 04, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to create frameworks easily using simple graphic tools. This then provides a fantastic opportunity for genuine collaboration. As an Innovation Lead, it's easy for me to visualise ideas and then bring the team through them. Working together it's easy to keep iterating in the Miro platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not being able to see everyone on the video call option makes running workshops a little tricky sometimes. It would be great even to spotlight the person speaking if we can't see everyone at once.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. Visualising ideas
2. Roadmapping innovation
3. Iterating ideas
4. Workshopping remotely
5. Developing product frameworks
6. Hands-on collaboration digitally
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would absolutely recommend Miro.

It has enabled us to do everything from run remote workshops to full week-long sprints with clients. This was the primary reason we adopted Miro but now members of the team use it daily for their own individual purposes like idea generation, mapping, diagraming and road-mapping.

It's incredibly powerful. The one watch-out on workshops is that you cannot see all users at once, i.e. if you have more than four users on a call. However, Miro also keeps adding new functionality like the recent addition of "reactions", which also helps with running workshops.

If you're someone who needs powerful but clear and nicely designed diagrams or mindmaps, then Miro is the right tool for you. The important thing about this too is the ability to simultaneously work on a mind map with multiple people at once. Happy diagraming!

Priceless for remote work

  • May 04, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Super quick and easy to work together on all kinds of collaboration from initial ideas, through to detailed designs. Super smooth usability and helpful shortcut keys let us get stuff done. The shared templates are handy for indicating what can be done with the system.
What do you dislike about the product?
Few niggles on linking lines and selecting across multiple layers. Plus some shortcut keys differ from other standards I use which causes confusion. Font handling when zoomed in / out can be painful - eg, defaults to small size (8) but is actually large on the screen (have to create a group and scale it).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solution creation for users, collaborating on ideas across the team. Having a shared digital workspace makes it easy to all stay in sync and come u with interesting directions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommended. Well worth the time to get going and use across your teams.

Miro - a great collaboration tool

  • May 04, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Being able to collaborate work with my colleagues and the fast and intuitive User Interface. Additional, the many templates are a great way to get started and onboard new users. The Fremium version offers a solid range of features and is a good starting point for working together with your team and sharing whiteboards.
What do you dislike about the product?
A small detail I dislike is that sometimes users drag items around unintentionally when multiple users work on the same file. Furthermore, the fact that recent changes are highlighted is not very convenient for me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Miro mainly for remote and interactive workshops with multiple users. Additionally, I have switched some meeting notes completely over to Miro, which makes the interaction way easier. We have also used Miro for our brainstorming sessions since going fully remote. That involves customer journey maps, mind maps and scamper.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would suggest just get started and give the tool a try. It is super easy to understand and with the many templates you even have a starting point.

invaluable resource for workshops during lockdown, and now our go-to platform

  • May 04, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's intuitive and easy to work with. I have run online workshops with groups of people who are not necessarily comfortable with this sort of thing and they all got the hang of it quickly. This is really important because when you are running a workshop, it's the workshop subject matter that you want people to focus on, and the tools should simply be serving to assist with getting everybody's thoughts and opinions recorded and shared, and should not take over. MIRO does this, and in fact allowed us to create new workshop exercises that really got people's interest and attention in ways that you might not achieve in face to face. I can see us continuing to use this platform for workshops even as face to face meetings become possible again
What do you dislike about the product?
One annoying issue with writing text - which I can't quite get my head round. The size of the text box and the size of the font are connected, so when you write the box just gets wider and wider rather than wrapping, and if you try to resie the width of the box afterwards, the text shrinks down instead of wrapping. The only way to get it to wrap is to put line breaks in. This is daft - the functionality should work the way text boxes work on all other programs (Word, Pages, InDesign, Acrobat etc etc)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MIRO meant we were able to carry on with what we do for our clients. Hard to know how we would have run our strategy brand reviews without some sort of online collaborative tool to use - workshops are an integral part of our process, and we needed something that replaced the flipcharts and post-it notes of our face to face meetings. MIRO does that brilliantly.
