We didn't. After evaluating multiple products over the course of a few quarters, we decided on using Miro actually. Namely, because Miro had more templates and features like voting and clip art searching. The call feature was the only thing unmatched, which we didn't really …
Klaxoon has a highly intuitive visual platform with better collaboration. I still feel Miro has a better user experience though. In terms of pricing, Klaxoon is better priced compared to Miro and many other competitors and delivers betters return through a scalable approach. …
They are pretty similar tools. The problem we had with Miro was that it was pretty blocky outside the company network and Klaxoon was better adapted to share results using the company agility tools. I do not have a favorite between the 2 tools but I believe that price is an …
we are trying many visual collaboration applications. and we will choose the application that will offer us a more interactive environment. Miro is a very similar app and surpasses Klaxoon in terms of interface and simplicity. But Klaxoon is more successful with pre-designed …
Klaxoon helps to facilitate the collaborative environment for decision-making processes to assess a situation, analyze the root causes of problems in a collective manner, improve processes, reach an agreement and define an action plan. We have implemented this tool for …
Mural: at the time (something like five years ago), the Mural was less complete, less intuitive, and easy to use. It also had fewer templates, and it didn't have the community templates feature, which was something that I really liked to inspire me on new methodologies for …
The amount of tools, the accessibility and the overall experience of Miro makes it a go-to compared to the others, especially given the ease of playing around all the different frames, images, etc.
I've tried Klaxoon once and I really didn't like my experience. As for Mural, I …
None of these platforms provide the depth in features and make it easy to use them as Miro does. The only problem with Miro is that the no-on-premise version is a no-go for some corporations. Hence, I have used these other applications, which I hate compared to Miro. Frankly, I …
Miro is a lot more flexible and intuitive to use than Klaxoon, which can be confusing. First time users usually have no issue with Miro but often struggle with Klaxoon.
Microsoft Teams / Microsoft Whiteboard is great for MS integration but really too limited and basic for using …
Miro offers a better user experience and options, in my opinion. While the other tools each had their strong point, it was good to find a great product like Miro that offers to do it all in one centralized location. It's almost plug and play with a very straightforward setup. …
Miro has simplicity and nice navigation - or perjhaps I'm used to it. Client techstack force me to use multiple other platforms but I prefer Miro mainly as i can easily copy existing boards and the new features are often in line with me needs - the other tools always miss …
I've only used it a couple of times with our vendors, but it seems more glitchy. I'm not sure how it actually differentiates, but I prefer the Miro experience.
We love Milanote for our design team, and it is unmatched for creative reviews. Still, Miro takes the cake for team collaboration during the ideas/wireframing stages, especially for non-creative team members. Milanote lacks a lot of the functionality that Miro provides.
Miro is easy to access online (doesn't have to download), has the exact function I need with well-built templates (calendar), and easily allows my manager to view my progress and calendar. It just seemed like the easiest thing that had all the aspects I needed, and I've had no …
I was not involved in Miro selection or integration, but I'm sure that due diligence was done. Miro gives great versatility, and the training was straightforward. I feel like Miro has a lot of unused potential; perhaps there could be bite-size tutorials on how to utilize it to …
Miro is easier, especially to make post-its and to lock a frame. It's basic functionality but they are working very well with Miro and it's the most important point in order to involve new people into the tool. Globally, I think Miro is more user-friendly and that's all that …
It works super well for creative brief intake and brand reviews. It took us more time than I'm willing to admit to get it all set up, but for our limited use case, it's working very well now. I'm not sure where it wouldn't be a good fit, honestly. As a newer user, it's still something I'm getting to know and learn.
Easy for end-users to experience the workflow and processes (i.e. low entry barrier) and handle the tool. Easy for facilitators to create a digital board and to animate and create a good remote real-time or asynchronous experience. Moreover, it allows building Customer Journey Maps (CJM) for my end-users with very low time invested and a high level of reusability.
I first used Miro in a service design module at university, where we used it for personas, customer journey mapping, and more. I've since used it in marketing for SWOT analysis, RACI models, project planning, and more. I've yet to use it in a wider team setting, but from my experience, some team activities, even a SWOT analysis, for instance, where it is brainstorming-based, are better done in a physical space and then brought onto a digital tool, rather than done purely digitally.
There are many templates available in the library: very useful for organizing a workshop that always requires a method to support collective intelligence.
Klaxoon is great for working collaboratively at the same time. It is really visual and not very difficult to use. It has different kinds of interesting features, but you have to know about them.
Blackboard principle, confidentiality of contributions
Makes internal coordination between admin team and tutors extremely painless. It's like a single place where everyone can drop ideas, get updates and notes without loss of context which usually happens in long email threads.
Versioning and board history are handled very well, which drastically reduces the workload. They help me track how a policy or math guideline has evolved, and also make it easy to revert changes if something doesn't work.
Comments stick exactly where they are meant to, making internal reviews much clearer. Admins don't have to guess which note refers to which rule or section.
Exports are clean, so even non-Miro teammates get it instantly.
Allow nonusers to add requests, our organization has no need to add all 10,000+ team members to Adobe Workfront, but would like them to be able to send requests to our team
As a designer, I miss some more creative features. I can't even get really into designing small things (like paths). Many of my colleagues have already switched to the Figma board because it is possible there.
Things often get lost in the workflow, especially in teams. Working on the same file often leads to misunderstandings and can be frustrating. For example, if text is accidentally deleted and cannot be recovered, or if images become distorted.
The scale on the board is missing, which often leads to size differences.
Workfront is sometimes a bit clunky to use, but overall it works well for our teams when it comes to project management and collaboration across multiple, involved teams. It also has flexibility that allows us to adapt it to diverse use cases, some of which aren't necessarily always the first things that one would think of using workfront for.
Miro saves my day. I would spend at least 4x more time on documenting my projects and work without this tool. It support my day to day role and helps me be successful while saving my capacity. It is not only very easy to start working on it without additional training required, but also adapts to any use case that I might need to implement
Workfront is overly complex, but it is functional as a tool to keep track of projects. It is a shame that sometimes it takes a lot of clicks to find anything. Workfront is slowly modernizing its interface but at the same time, hides certain information away thus making the experience feels worse.
It's very easy to use, while having endless features. When I start a new board, I know that there's almost nothing that I cannot put on it, whether these are builtin tools, like documents and diagrams, or whether these are 3rd party services that can be imported onto the board. Using Miro is very easy. When I'm onboarding a new user, I focus on what can be done and not on how, as everything is very intuitive.
Maintenance is required, but usually after work hours, Some days the proofing tool function is not operational, but this is a new function of the tool that WF is working out. the kinks on. Chrome is the best browser to use the system in and we find Firefox and Explorer lose some view functionality - Gantt Chart, Resource Grid
I have not encountered events where Miro is not available. It is quite nice and reliable to be fair, even on my freemium version (startup) I don't have reliability issues. It does have sometimes where the screen refresh or "freezes" or "consumes a lot of data" and we have to rewind windows and the likes, this instances are very less
I think overall, Adobe Workfront performs well. There have been some times when it doesn't load or run as quickly as our team would like. This is frustrating when it is such a crucial tool that our team utilizes on a daily basis. It can show our workflow when it lags.
I took the loading quickly to be related to availability which I commented on before, so ditto with those comment on load time here. Although to reemphasize, Miro doesn't crash or just refuse to load like some other programs. The weak point of Miro for me is integration of files like Word, Excel, or PowerPoint (especially the later two). When you embed these, it gets slow, and complicated to bring them up while you're in the application.
I know that this particular company has it's own Adobe Workfront employee that builds out things they need from the software, and meets with them regularly to troubleshoot. I'm not part of this process, but it's refreshing to see Adobe provide this level of customer service to people, and they're expedient.
We have never reached out to or contacted support because Miro's platform has been incredibly intuitive and user-friendly. The comprehensive resources available, such as tutorials, documentation, and community forums, have provided all the guidance we needed. The seamless integration with our existing tools and the reliability of the platform have ensured that we rarely encounter issues that require external assistance. This self-sufficiency has allowed us to focus more on our projects and collaboration without interruptions. Overall, our experience with Miro has been smooth and efficient, eliminating the need for additional support
The training is very easy to use and you can simply choose the topics included in the course(s) that are most important to your training needs. After each training course, you are tested on what you have learned. If you need a refresher course, they provide Course Catalogs as well as instructor-led courses & workshops.
There was a series of webinars which Miro hosted with our organization that went over the basics, then progressively became more advanced with additional sections. The instructors were knowledgeable, and provided examples throughout the sessions, as well as answered peoples' questions. There was ample time and experience on the calls to cover a range of topics. The instructors were also very friendly and sociable, as well as honest. Of course Miro isn't a "God-tool" that does absolutely everything, but the instructors were aware and emphasized the strengths where Miro had them and sincerely accepted feedback.
Most people learn as you go, a lot of this stuff requires trial and error throughout so my suggestion is to provide as much information in the upfront and keep it as simple as possible. You can add other tools and features as you go but everyone should have the basics down so no bad habits can start to develop. Be persistent with everyone, and don't be afraid to correct and talk through steps again so everyone is on the same page
Easy to learn, Miro has a series of videos on YouTube that effectively taught this program to my team members and me. The program is drag-and-drop and works excellently. People pick up on how to use it efficiently, and it's great for organizing ideas more freely. This product is more challenging for some older audiences who are not accustomed to using a touchpad, but for most, it was very easy to use.
Adobe Workfront blows the other systems out of the water. It just delivers more - out of the gate, and at every quarterly update. Innovation is top of mind, and meeting customers' needs is key. We have been extremely satisfied with Workfront and look forward to all the new features on the horizon, especially AI.
we are trying many visual collaboration applications. and we will choose the application that will offer us a more interactive environment. Miro is a very similar app and surpasses Klaxoon in terms of interface and simplicity. But Klaxoon is more successful with pre-designed boards. MURAL is a different concept and lags behind Klaxoon in terms of workspace.
Both FigJam and ClickUp have similar features where we can do collective brainstorming and idea mapping. We have gone back to Miro from both of those platforms because of the intuitive nature and usability of the Miro interface. Surprisingly, we do still pay for ClickUp and Figma. Miro has not been able to replace either of these for us because we use them for different use cases. Our team expressed the most comfort and ease of use with Miro versus these two platforms, so we gladly have decided to stay.
As I stated earlier, I didn't have to pay for Workfront myself- I'm a user under a large organization. I know it's not cheap to implement, I don't know how the price scales for a small-business, but I do like the product enough that I'm going to look into it in the future for my own company.
Our organization has thousands of users that use Workfront and it seems to hold up very well. I have not encountered any issues using it and I think it makes it very easy for multiple people to be involved in a project and keep things organized and clear for everyone involved.
Maybe is possible now so... Could be useful to manage in some way source code for the projects? not to edit so when we make solutions with different components in MIro, maybe each component could redirect to the source code of this component
Resource Management - Year over year, we were able to validate time and money saved by the implementation of Workfront by more than 2%, saving in non-working dollars and 9% savings in working media dollars.
Organization Restructuring and Automation- We also restructured our teams and implemented automation based on our analysis of how and what we spend our time on and the ROI for our respective business units.
Klaxoon allows working in a group easily at the same time for people in different places. So the main benefit is to work collaboratively and to come back to the work anytime we want.
It was especially important during the Covid period when we could not organize on-site sessions with a real post-it. It helps also for online training or digital adoption thanks to the possibility to define the digital training journey with Module/Quiz sessions/Surveys.
we benefited from strong support from the Customer management services of Klaxoon to kick off the solution in a very good way.
Miro allows me to plan work for the future without having to reference tedious spreadsheets. This gives me better insight into workload forecasting.
Just today, I was able to quickly put together a Miro to show a team member who was confused the workflow for a problem. The easy 'on-the-fly' tools let me create something quickly in real time.
Flowcharts often get a bad rap because people think they are too complicated, but Miro lets me get more work done quickly than just using a doc or sheet.
