Positive: FigJam is cheaper than Miro and allows connecting with FigJam, where we design our user interfaces. FigJam is more complete and visually appealing than draw.io, although draw.io is free. FigJam allows calls, which both competitors do not. Negative: Miro has …
I feel like Figjam is great at at what it does. It provides a great overall place to be able to use a virtual whiteboard and help teams collaborate. Especially remote teams. It actually does it better than others. There are some tools such as InVision Freehand that at the …
Miro is the more general use one. We use FigJam for internal projects where it's just designers on the project. But for internal projects with other roles involved Miro quickly becomes the more accessible option. The simplicity is the main driver why we opt for using Miro for …
We are still using tools like Figma, Trello, and FigJam now within different teams. We're really liking Miro's collaboration features. We're hoping they add more cool stuff for design and planning, so we can eventually use Miro for everything and simplify our toolkit.
We adopted Miro before we moved from Sketch to Figma, which is part of why it beat out FigJam for us. It was already somewhat entrenched before FigJam became available to us.
Also the licensing model and the fact that Miro is available to and used by most everyone in our corp …
Initially Mural was the preferred option, but ultimately, the only benefit Mural had the double click option to spawn new stickies, so we quickly went away from it since Miro had far more features that were useful to us. It's been a while since then to be fair.
Figma and FigJam tend to be the choices for the designers I have worked with, but it can be a bit intimidating for those who are not technically literate. Slack's whiteboard feature hasn't really taken off with our team, and if we do use it, it is to quickly present something …
Miro is more broad, and well suited for other professional not only designers like FigJam. The learning curve is shorter, and the interface displays the most common tools for whiteboard and editing types of dynamics, in addition to other specific features.
We selected Miro because it is really simple to use and it is accessible through a link with a login. I love the whiteboard feel that resembles how we used to work when work meant being in person. A lot of the other tools have more of a specific role in a project where Miro can …
We were originally using Mural, but it did not satisfy our company's security standards and we also had a lot of issues with it freezing when we would have more than ~10 people collaborating on the board at once, so we made the switch to Miro back in 2020. At first, Miro felt …
There are so many reasons why I prefer Miro to FigJam. The connections are essential to me articulating my thought process. I have never said this about a piece of software before, but everything I make inside Miro is beautiful. Often, I recreate visual deliverables made in FigJ…
Mural and Miro seem extremely similar. I'm not as familiar with Mural but love all the tools in Miro for conducting actual sessions (timers, voting, etc.). FigJam is terrible - no comparison there.
I started with Mural during Covid but quickly switched to Miro due to better usability and design possibilities on Miro. Tools like FigJam were nice to have but I always preferred MIRO over FigJam or any other tool as I got used to it quickly and found everything that I needed.
Miro is first still in my mind. Miro in my opinion has the potential to become its own operating system where with the help of better integrations can hold everything you need to perform and operate during work and possibly outside work.
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
Miro is superior around actual presenting, and the features are easier to find and use overall. I think the community is also superior. Lucid Spark was much cheaper and could do 80%, but Miro shines if you are a consultant who wants to leverage the best tools.
Figma is a design tool but there are some similarities to Miro. I have acquired lots of habits from it that I kind of want to carry over - like selecting a group of stickies and quickly aligning them, group, ungroup, etc. I don't think each tool needs its own way of working …
Miro is superior to all of them. There is honestly no comparison. I feel like all of the others make adjustments to try to enhance their platform to be similar to Miro, but the ease of use is just not there.
