Evernote is a suite of software and services designed for notetaking and archiving. A "note" can be a piece of formatted text, a full webpage or webpage excerpt, a photograph, a voice memo, or a handwritten "ink" note. Notes can also have file attachments. Notes can be sorted into folders, then tagged, annotated, edited, given comments, searched and exported as part of a notebook. Evernote supports a number of operating system platforms (including OS X, iOS, Chrome OS, Android, Microsoft…

Evernote has a nicer UI that makes taking notes really easy and pleasant. We do use OneNote for cases where we need MS Teams integration, but for personal note-taking, many individuals across the organization will use Evernote to organize their meeting notes as well as …
Evernote, Trello, , Mindmeister--these are the tools I used to use all at once to do what Miro does all in one. The consolidation of features is impressive and convenient. I don't need to cobble together the functionality with multiple tools. The simplicity of the option allows …
Miro seems to be the OG of whiteboard-based brainstorming collaboration software. Some competitors may offer more or different features. The learning curve is not steep, so a group can easily switch apps if needed, but the saved files may not necessarily be compatible between …
I find most other digital collaboration tooling are slowly catching up with Miro, although I'm please that Miro continues to develop, improve and iterate their products. They provide easy to use solutions that don't require much training, although the academy is cool to learn …
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 …
Did not invest a lot of time looking at FigJam, but I have used it when working on school projects with other designers. But once I told them about using Miro, my FigJam friends converted to Miro. I think they thought Miro had more features and was easy to learn which helped
Miro is better for collaboration in cross functional teams. Engineers, Product Managers, Marketing and Sales feel more confortable than using other tools such as FigJam which are more focused on designers. The speed is superior to other tools such as Google Jamboard or Mural. …
Miro has more features and add-ons. In Mural, for example, it’s not intuitive how to select objects or how to group. Mural takes longer to load, which inhibits me from adding more objects, which could slow down the app even further. Mural doesn’t have as many templates and …
used Mural elsewhere, at a high level its very similar, but we went with Miro as the general perception was it would integrate better with our tooling and had a better user experience to use with teams and clients. I dont think there is really much more I can add other than …
Even if we have jamboard as part of our google package, miro always stands out when it comes to user experience, performance and features. Using miro, is more interactive and fluid which allows new users to quickly get used to the tool and contribute to the board in the most …
Miro works just as well if not better than the others. Its simple but powerful and enables a lot of collaboration, the templates available and the ease of adding and removing things that you just want to see has been great. I had originally used MURAL but have come to prefer Miro
Lucidchart is good for diagraming but not good for collaborating. It's also very expensive. It's probably better for engineers, but not so much for creative types. Google Drive doesn't really have a comparable diagramming capabilities with templates. Jira and Trello are focused …
Miro is the only one to make remote collaboration easy. Miro is also significantly faster and easier to use compared to the other options. It's honestly not even close, Miro is simply way better than any other option I've come across.
Many functions and tools that are available on other platforms/tools but only as a single function are combined in miro. The broad menu of tools is great in miro collaboration. Miro is Scalable, secure, device-independent and ready quite fast for team collaboration. The …
I haven't used any other products. But Freemind mapping web based could be one alternative. However, Miro plays an essential and professional tool. It helps employers, students, educators, and presenters in explaining and/or collaborating on the projects. Miro has integration …
As I've said before, Miro's strength is in its ease of use and flexibility. Simplicity was key in choosing Miro. We found other software just too clunky or difficult to use compared to Miro. We could just pick up Miro and use it on the spot, and that is a testament to its …
Miro's ease of use, various capabilities to be able to act as a note-taking, collaborating, prioritizing tool, presentation tool, brainstorming tool - it beats them all. We don't need to pay for multiple tools for multiple uses, but only one tool for it all.
Evernote is an excellent tool for keeping track of client relationships and taking notes. The indexing is excellent, with text in images and text. However, a Wiki might be better for large-scale collaboration. It is a perfect use case for it, and it is hard to beat. To-do lists that need to be tracked or have due dates assigned do not work well in Evernote. It's almost like a library that anyone can add to, edit, tag, and reference. Evernote has a limited checklist function in terms of tasks meant to be kept in one place rather than reviewed and organized over time.
Miro is the best tool for remote collaboration; it offers features that make teamwork feel natural and engaging regardless of our location. All-in-one and most reliable for visualizing ideas and workflows. It allows everyone to put ideas on one whiteboard that is easy for the entire team to have access, comments, and give updates, which eliminates the back-and-forth emails.
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.
I can't really imagine how much they'd have to charge me to make me quit Evernote. I can't really think of any technology that has changed my life as much without going back to email in the 90s, or the introduction of the iPhone. I know I sound ridiculous, but it would be really tough for me to live without it. If I were forced to choose between my smart phone (and keep in mind that I get lost in my driveway) and my Evernote, I'd probably choose my Evernote.
I have advocate for the renew of Miro quite few times, however, it is not under my control as the decision is made in another team with their own budget. I would buy for my own entrepreneur projects (1-2 members) as I do know the value and work there 100%. So, I would pay out of my own pocket to get the value. However, If I wouldn't know the value it provides, it would be hard to decide with the current freemium features
Basic visual organization - ability to create a notebook and store user notes inside of it.
Basic easy navigation - You can quickly move in and out of files and notes.
User intuitive addition - whatever you need to add to your document, it's relatively easy to understand and use.
We find overall that we still want some functionality in creating better task lists, boards, and other things that we find in Notion - which is the tool that we use as a team notebook/storage space.
I love it. It should perhaps even be a 10, but there are only minor things that get me when it comes to trying to move around the images on the page and selecting images on the page. Nevertheless, I've used this tool randomly over various years numerous times.
Generally issues are by connectivity and not Evernote availability but I have had issues in the past with cross-client consistency of data which Evernote Support has ID'd as bugs that are still unresolved as far as I know
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.
Sometimes it gets quite slow and there is a correlation between this and the size of the board. Hence we are trying to segment the boards based on product stages or projects so that the size doesn't go big. When you go from discovery to delivery on a simple board, it will get large and difficult to load, even crash or go white screen
I bet you won’t even need to call their support. Their product has never failed me. Simply put. But if you were to email them to gather some details or help, I bet they won’t disappoint you. Don’t worry about the support, it’s the last thing you should worry about this product.
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.
Make sure you think about your tags. If you end up with multiple similar tags then things aren't grouped together as you might prefer. For instance if you have a tag called Disney and Walt Disney, this will split up your articles. Evernote makes it simple to correct, but I suggest you make sure your users look closely at the existing tags before creating new ones.
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.
The most similar program I have used is OneNote by Microsoft, and other note taking programs exist like Notepad and Microsoft Word but those programs do not offer syncing like Evernote does. There are newer programs in the space like Dropbox Paper and Google Docs which would be on a list of ones to consider.
I use both for different things really. Figma is better for design and prototype applications with coding being enabled in Figma (which isn't part of Miro's tools). As I said earlier, I use other programmes when there is a lack in Miro, in this case the coding element. Also Miro is better suited for BAU, so I can utilise this by bringing part of the business into using it. Figma isn't collaborative enough for this purpose. Miro overall has a better user experience
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
Evernote has allowed our school's over 3000 students and staff members to work more efficiently instead of spending time on making physical notes, clicking pictures, and uploading them to the cloud in order to share them
The investment in Evernote Premium has also allowed for heavier files to be attached in each note such as student work that allows teachers to be certain that students have followed deadlines and finished assigned tasks
Evernote has allowed our school to smoothly transition in and out of online learning as the local COVID-19 protocols change and student work requires one platform to be based on throughout
