Miro is a bit more complex with the number of features and needs to learn to get used to, but it has far more tools than Figma whiteboards. I think some simplification in the look and feel initially makes Figma more user-friendly, but ultimately, Miro is a better product.
Jamboard is very basic and doesn't offer the same amount of functionality. FigJam seems to be on par with features but just doesn't feel the same or as easy to use.
I have a hard time building out triangles, arrows and radius buttons in Miro which is often frustrating and makes the low fidelity look less professional
Figma, LucidChart. Figma is the less user friendly tool in the planet. I struggle to use it and would rather stay away Regarding LucidChart, the issue is that it's not as visual as Miro - more like lines and boxes, at least when I used it a few years back
Miro does a phenomenal job at organizing and collating info. The tool is simple to use and enables collaboration across boundaries. The ease of use makes it rank higher than any other tool in its category.
I liked Miro better than Figma and Atlassain Confluence Whiteboards, but were were working in too many difference spaces/products and decided to leave Miro even if it had a slightly better feature set.
Miro is almost similar to Figjam, but Figjam mostly restricted invites and accounts. Common people from other departments more comfortable using Miro but the cons are we need to screenshot or upload the new image to see the wireframe, I wish I could bring in without needing …
It was great for handing off projects to Developers and give it into their hands especially by being able to connect to Product Board. Was tricky though sometimes going back and finding things when those backlogs get really lengthy and titles start not helping as much...etc.
It is excellent for digital collaboration with clients and colleagues. It can replace PowerPoint as an engagement and communication tool that can be used to drive interactive sessions, ongoing collaboration, and iteration. Using the integrated video tools to run participants through the board and/or provide instructions is fantastic. As is the ability to integrate with third-party applications like Jira. However, it is currently less suited to building toolsets that can be monetized, as there is no defined way to limit who can access custom boards.
Visualization of concepts. Very easy to create diagrams, journey maps, cluster information together
Collaborative work. Sometimes I create activities where we do some individual work and then converge together as a group, the ability to do that all in one board and then have the information in one place is really valuable.
Planning. Super easy to create detailed plans, move things around, leave comments. Especially love the 'cards' where you can even put status progress and assign to specific person
There is no other tool like Miro for process Mapping in particular. I've tried PowerPoint, Word, and other programs, but when collaborating virtually on how to improve a process, Miro has all of the tools and more to enable successful mapping. The colors, different types of shapes and text books, along with the ability to integrate different documents and other functionality, make it ideal for this purpose. In a virtual world, it's a must-have.
I would rate Miro's overall usability a 10 as well. The platform's intuitive design and user-friendly interface make it incredibly easy to navigate and use, even for those who are new to it. The drag-and-drop functionality, along with a wide range of templates and tools, allows for seamless collaboration and creativity. Additionally, the real-time collaboration features enable our team to work together efficiently, regardless of location. The integration with other tools we use daily further enhances our workflow, making Miro an indispensable part of our toolkit. Overall, Miro's usability has significantly improved our productivity and collaboration, making it a top choice for our team.
I only give a 9/10 because of the speed at which it loads. I have never experienced issues with Miro logging me out early, or some other technical issue causing the program to crash, or even it just loading in perpetuity without ever actually coming up (unlike other programs such as SFDC). It take a minute for all of my boards to come up after I click on it in my favorites, but besides that, it's all good.
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.
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.
So many ways to use Miro, it'd be good to have a basic training for users to do before starting. We're finding there's a vast split amongst our users, some use all the time, and some avoid it heavily. Finding ways to personalize the onboarding experience will be key. Maybe even just an "onboarding template" they can be walked through. It would be good to also have a central management of activity and notifications of when people log-in and work on things.
productboard is my favorite, but that one is more Product oriented where Atlassian Jira Product Discovery seems more Dev focused so it is nice those tools compare. Azure is really nice in the UX and the way it presents the sprints and the stories in an easy manner. Atlassian Jira Product Discovery is great when creating the stories within itself and also works with productboard better than azure does currently.
Jamboard is slow, didn't always show changes in real time, doesn't support infinite canvas and is more limited in functionality and easy to use than Miro. It goes without saying, but Jamboard is being retired as a product this year. Miro on the other hand has constant updates and new features including AI capabilities.
Miro is great for scaling. In every department and subdivision across my entire organization, there is someone using it. From Sales to marketing, to manufacturing and operations; and even in legal and finance, there isn't a process or a department that is not using Miro, and if they aren't, they're missing out! Even at the highest to the lowest levels of the organization, it is essential for virtual collaboration.
Ease of collaboration - This has saved me countless hours and stress. Old products such as Visio and Milanote lacked collaborative features. With more time and more mental capacity, I am able to accomplish more.
There has been a reduced project completion time. For example when designing websites. I am able to clip a snippet of a website we are designing, draw an arrow to exactly where we need to work, and apply a post-it with direction. This has saved us a ton of hours and back and forth via Whatsapp directing the team on what needs to be done.
There is a financial return for sure. I just don't have those hard numbers at the moment.
