Miro has been widely employed for various purposes, including brainstorming and facilitating team discussions. Its use extends to enhancing presentations with visual cues instead of traditional slides. The platform aids in efficient sprint planning and project management while aligning teams effectively. Users have harnessed its GenAI features for creating diagrams, compiling meeting notes, and conducting design tasks such as mapping user flows and journeys. Miro also serves as a crucial tool for customer research activities, from initial planning and note-taking to the final synthesis. Moreover, it caters to virtual collaboration needs by supporting design reviews, workshops with external customers, and fostering knowledge sharing within design teams.

Template Variety: Users have expressed appreciation for Miro's diverse range of template layouts tailored to different project needs, enhancing creativity and organization.

Performance Issues: Reviewers have frequently reported significant performance problems with large boards taking a long time to load, negatively impacting the user experience. This issue hampers productivity and frustrates users trying to work efficiently.

The current limitations hinder creativity and design flexibility on the platform. Difficulty in Board Organization: Some users express confusion when organizing boards by department, struggling with determining the correct placement for new boards. This lack of clarity disrupts workflow efficiency and makes it challenging to maintain an organized workspace.

I love using Miro for virtual meetings and more specifically for their sticky notes feature as it is great for remote workers to provide immediate feedback which makes collaborating really easy. And since we use Google Workspace, Miro works great for us as it can easily integrate with it which make task management and project tracking more efficient. Also sharing files and links on Google Drive is really convenient with Miro which further helps us enhance our teamwork and productivity.

During my time in school and industry, nearly every project received it's own Miro page. The main need being a collaborative workspace to plan projects, document data, and share ideas. Similarly, this would carry into my industry experience where we'd use Miro for product and space design. Some issues did relate to the sensitivity of information we didn't want in the cloud.

We use Miro primarily for collaboration in a remote working environment. It has proven effective as a platform for getting ideas from multiple individuals, identifying trends, and categorizing the broader concepts exposed through exercises of that nature. It has also proven an effective tool for collaborating across disciplines and helping to visually align a product roadmap with a technical roadmap. It can also be leveraged effectively, creating point-in-time touchstones that represent the collective thinking of a point in time. If there were one thing I wished it would do more effectively, it would be to create a more fluid technical diagramming experience so it could serve as a one-stop shop rather than importing images from other more effective diagramming tools. I feel it has enhanced my work experience, and I view it almost as necessary for an environment that operates as a remote workforce.

I'm from the customer experience and customer marketing team, so I use Miro a lot for countless demands. In my routine, I constantly need to use Miro to create user journeys, investigate bottlenecks and consolidate information, presentations to internal teams, brainstorms, service flows, as well as teamwork. Overall, my use case is to constantly analyze and improve our customers' experience.

We use Miro to create journey maps form CRM initiatives and comms frameworks for campaigns. Miro’s tools allow us to effectively parse out the pieces of our business problem so we can address each step. The collaboration function is also invaluable when it comes to reaching a consensus re: feedback, builds and next steps. I also love creating Miro boards for research projects as a haven for source materials.

I'm an innovation consultant, which is a fancy term for being a facilitator that gets ideas out of a business’s head and into some sort of tangible form. Miro is my favorite way to do this, as it's easy to use, somewhat restrictive in its design ethos (focus on the problem, not the form), and allows global teams to swarm--even async.

When COVID hit, I really worried about my ability to run large form workshops and qualitative interviews. With Miro, not only could I do all of that from home (mostly), but I already had all of my work digitized and ready for synthesis--immediately after the meeting. It's magic. A research run used to be measured by time in the field = time in synthesis (so, 1 week in the field, 1 week in a room). Now, with Miro, I can cut the synthesis time in half, and get to insights much faster.

Anyway, there are few tools that I'd actually rave about, but Miro is actually one of the key things in my quiver.

We use Miro for brainstorming and ideation, to generate and organize ideas collaboratively and create mind maps to organize our thoughts. Additionally, it serves as a project management tool, helping us plan and track projects, assign tasks, and --less often-manage workflows. Sometimes, we also use Miro for customer journey mapping, to analyze and improve the customer experience journey.

During one of my internships, my company used Miro for service design. It was a very helpful tool for visualizing and synthesizing information. We would use it as a visual during interviews and fill out a template we made with the interviewee. We also kept a calendar in one board because our team had members from different companies. This made it easier to share information like out of office times and important dates. Miro would also be used for retrospective meetings and collaborative sessions. After my internship ended, I continued using Miro for my course work in college. I use it to take notes and organize information. I've found it as a very helpful tool for studying and for planning out the work I need to do.

Miro is the best tool I have found for supporting hybrid, global, teams brainstorming and collaborating on strategy and innovation. I also enjoy the wide variety of integrations with other collaboration platforms like Microsoft teams, WebEx, and slack. The templates are particularly important in an agile environment that encourages input from all stakeholders.

Our team has been almost entirely distributed for as long as we've been a company. The ability to work through topics together -- whether it's whiteboarding, doing UX exercises, or charting a journey (of a person, product, or company!), Miro has been a lifesaver.

The templates are a great jumping off point for newbies, but more often than not, we wind up just using some stickies and some basic shapes and we're off and running. The ability to recreate a genuine work session while not being physically in the same room is something we have not found with any other software.

I use Miro daily to break down business processes in unison with the agile work-stream. Some coworkers are visual learners, by using Miro, I am able to document outcomes, tasks and to-dos via result chains using Miro. Miro allows me to simplify the process of ironing out work to be done, and providing a visual representation of the process for both review and publication. Before Miro, I used a pen and paper, now I am able to document the way I think, or work with co-workers, and document they way they think visually. The tool is valuable, and work-life is made simpler using Miro.

We use Miro to bring abstract ideas to life - we will take notes and organize the thoughts to understand patterns and define scope. It is easy to integrate documents and take notes on screenshots as well as use the templates to identify multiple purposes within a meeting as well as use it as a source of record.

Miro is being used across the business to help simplify our needs. We conduct everything on Miro, from workshopping ideas to developing new products, envisaging new website templates and enhancing existing ones. It's a very collaborative tool that allows us to conduct workshops digitally and remotely whilst still keeping employees engaged. We also use it with external clients and agencies/providers to help us collaborate.

We use it to virtually collaborate across our Product and Product design teams as we do early-stage problem identification and solution ideation.
As a team manager I often use it to map out and solve organizational and structural challenges and work through various solutions.
We use this to evaluate and compare different options for various problems we may be trying to solve.
We use it for virtual ideation, brainstorming and whiteboarding sessions that we run within our PD team as well as collaborating with other teams throughout our org.

We use Miro for multiple purposes, including retro, workshops, any collaboration sessions, project planning, product mapping, brainstorming, documentation, presentation, or just a fun drawing emoji posting with coworkers.
The problem we are trying to solve was to have a tool that allow us to freely contribute our ideas in an unlimited space, that facilitate collaboration and many ways of capturing information.
With Miro, all the above mentions desires are fulfilled! This tool is so easy to use and have all useful features that suit all occasions.
Once you have started it you won't want to change to other tool.

I use Miro to sketch Product flow, User flow, and UI/UX of our product. I like to visualize for my developers how our product should behave and function based on requirements. I use it on a weekly basis, either iterating the sketches or referring to them in our different product documents.

We use Miro for designing chatbot conversational flows. The product addresses the need for user experience (UX) documentation to be consumed by designers, developers, managers, product owners and other business stakeholders. After a discovery process, the UX designers create the conversational flows by emulating either the interface for the company app or for WhatsApp using components drawn on Miro, combined with other elements representing the steps of the interaction, such as decisions, transference to human attendants and many more.

The Learning & Development team in my organization utilizes Miro for both team development and project mapping. It is almost paramount for collaboration given how global we are and how extensive our content development goes. From year-in-review activities to goal planning, it helps us see where we are both individually and collectively in our thoughts. The various non-work features, such as timers and background music also help us to feel more comfortable and relaxed while participating in said activities. Miro provided a very innovative way to lay out thoughts and perspectives whether they are built from the ground up or are pre-established notes/call-outs that can be voted on.
