More and more competitors, agencies, start-ups, tech companies are using Figma instead of Adobe XD or Sketch so our company is trying to get licenses of Figma in addition to Adobe XD. At a large company like us, we already have an Adobe Creative Cloud license so it makes sense …
Figma - Miro is easier to learn than Figma. I dont have much experience with Figjam Adobe XD - i dont even use this anymore. Not a great product. Not easy to collaborate Lucid - I've used lucid chart before. Its easier to developers to use, but the overall tool has less …
Miro helps me and my team more in the initial phases of a project. I do not like drawing freehand, so I prefer Miro over InVision. Figma and Adobe XD I only utilize towards the end of the project when prototyping begins.
It is quite similar to FigJam, but I have a feeling that it's focusing on the collaboration part, whereas FigJam is an addition to Figma, which is clearly a UI-oriented prototyping tool. It's clearer and more user-friendly than Mural. I use Miro in 90% of cases - FigJam is used …
The other tools are more precised, but for a content designer like me Miro potentially does the job. It would be a dream to have all in one place and be able to work in a project in which my UX writing skill is required, and the content strategist part too.
Miro is by far the market leader in whiteboarding tools. It can sometimes feel overly complex for the task in hand but when you are used to all the features you are glad they are there. I like the simplicity of FigJam as a direct competitor, but sometimes need the additional …
We chose Miro because of a licensing issue, Miro is simply cheaper than using FigJam, but we would probably like to use FigJam the better since we use Figma and it's way better integrated than Miro to Figma. At the same time, both FigJam and XD have real time collaboration …
XD has limitations with artboards and is not suitable for project facilitation. With Miro, you can store all kinds of information and reference it as needed, even for long-term projects.
I first use the whiteboard program Conceptboard for teaching design classes. The program was recommended to me by a German colleague during my first quarter of online instruction. After piloting Conceptboard in three classes (freshman, sophomore, and senior level), I decided to …
Miro is a lot easier to jump in for newbies to quickly create, design and draft up white boards workflows and on-going tasks for our whole team to see. Compared to the other tools I've tested, Miro seems a bit more intuitive and less complex to do simple tasks.
Miro stands out as a brainstorming and collaboration tool that supports cross collaboration and multiple inputs exceptionally well. It is especially good at providing templates to accelerate kick offs and diagraming logic with smart, connectors.
Miro was selected for us by our organization, so I didn't really have a choice. I would say Miro is like all the best components (or nearly the best) of the other applications all wrapped up in one.
Working with Miro is much easier. When I am using Miro, I dont have to thing about where to save documents. I dont need to think twice about sharing with colleagues. All the other tools have their advantages and disadvantages. When working with other tools, you need to think …
Miro is the best for collaboration because it’s super fast, can host lots of people, and automatically captures feedback I can share in a single link, or specific links to specific art boards
I like Miro's keyboard shortcuts a lot more than Mural. Mural and Google Jamboard have much more limited space than Mural. I like the look of Mural's post it's, they look more like basic shapes in Mural. I like that the background style is different than the frame making it …
Miro has more variety of tools and functions, so it gives more possibilities to users for doing different tasks and has a lot of information organized. On the other hand, Figma works well only for simple ideation sessions where the team only has to have simple interactions and …
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 …
While all the other programs that I use are more design-focused, a user can just as easily create the diagrams and outputs you would create in Miro. However, Miro is a more streamlined program that caters to users that are less designed and focused and are more worried about …
If its already part of your organization, and they have a license for Creative Cloud, its worth learning. It doesnt take long to get started, but compared to other software in the same field, its lacking in many ways, from quality of life features to just simply not having the option for Darkmode. Even for website design, UX/UI, and mocking up proof-of-concepts, there are much better tools like Figma.
Actually I answered this question on the first step. Detailing it I’d say that it’s comfortable to use for company education or brainstorm sessions, but I lack of flexibility to use it for operations quick stuff cuz team plans are limited
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.
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.
We utilize many of the applications in the Adobe CC suite and our usage of this application came about simply because it was the one that was already paid for. Bearing that in mind we will definitely be renewing the software upon the expiration of the licensing. I am not sure if this is the solution we would go with were it not already included, we would have to evaluate all other options
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
Adobe XD is basically on life-support now, there are much better software out there that do everything XD can do, and a few that you don't even have to pay a monthly subscription fee on. While Adobe XD is great as shortcuts that are used in other CC software works, and its integration with CC is great. But it still lacks compared to its closest competitor.
There are some features that I think could be smoother or more dynamic in the free version; for instance, the connection of graphics/text boxes with lines can get a bit messy and a bit limited if you want to do something specific with the line, like a free-drawn element. But this is really minor!
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 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 have not had a need to connect with the Adobe XD support team as of yet, but from past experience when dealing with the other products, the support has been very very good, and I would have no reason to think that this product would be any different. There are a good number of training videos on the Adobe site for this product as well as on other social media sites so a quick search should let you find the answers in several different ways.
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
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.
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.
Before XD came to the company, screens were designed in Illustrator or Photoshop and a PDF presentation was generated, which was extremely time-consuming. XD saved us a lot of time (and money) by generating interactive prototypes, which are much more tangible for the client than a PDF. The "fight" with Figma is frequent. Both have features in which they are better than their competition. And, while I still choose Adobe XD, don't rule out moving to Figma with its multiple updates.
Both FigJam and Canva have infinite whiteboarding, but Miro is a much more complete package. FigJam is very fast, but it's also very simplistic in its features. Canva has other qualities, like being more design-heavy, but its whiteboarding feature set is not on par with Miro's. Miro is the only platform that lets a user start a project from a messy brainstorm and bring it to full completion, along with all tasks and deliverables, all on one board.
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
Ease of use means we are up and running in no time.
Integrates and is a part of the Adobe CC platform (which we already subscribe to) so there was no additional cost.
Online proofing and developer handoff links are the icing on the cake. Keeps everything in one place.
Handles all our assets (mostly created in Illustrator) like a dream. Even imports native Photoshop docs, too, so that saves us so much time round tripping.
This is one of those platforms where the entire team needs to be bought into it, or it doesn't function as intended. Once we achieved that, it's been a wonderful tool for brainstorming and project management internally.
Surprisingly, Miro has not allowed us to reduce software; however, it's a worthwhile addition to our tech stack.
Our team has Miro boards bookmarked, and we know exactly where to go when we have ideas or things that we want to add. It's great to know that we will receive notifications when that happens.
