Brainstorming meeting and collaboration over zoom
Sprint planning meeting and online voting
Use of GenAI features to write meeting notes, generate pictures to be used in slides

Less approportaite - use on iPad. Drawing expeirence is not good there. If I draw on Ipad and then see it on Mac the aspect ratio changes and so does the drawing. Freeform is better in that case for me

Well-suited for brainstorming, group ideation, mapping ideas and systems, and getting ideas down on "paper"

Not as appropriate for design tasks. I'll often have the information organized how I want on Miro, but then have to move to Figma or Canva to get it presentable. Also not as appropriate for data analysis which I think could be fixed with better export to CSV. It is extremely frustrating to have all of the data down on sticky notes but needing to manually re-enter onto a spreadsheet

i have recommended Miro to many of my coworkers. I've shared my Miro board with them for ideas on how to structure it. I also tell me often how much it's helped me to get organized and have one-stop access to many thought streams, especially for those who are starting a new role.

Best suited to brainstorming, ideation, strategic thinking, mapping flows and journeys etc., as well as working collaboratively with remote teams. Less appropriate for crafting high-fidelity screens, creating linear narrative outputs

Miro is well suited to being a whiteboard for online workshops or online classes. It is also extremely well suited to being a Kanban management tool for teams that work in many locations. It is also quite decent as a calendar, surprisingly

Miro is well suited for scenarios where there is a need for low fidelity implementations of boards and templates that mimic in person white boards and rooms. This may be a less appropriate tool for complex task management where there are many dependencies and need for dynamic updating of all contents on a board.

Miro added support for presentations to its list of project management features. We can save time and effort by taking a little extra time when designing a board to ensure that content is placed in the appropriate frames. It enables us to generate boards, charts & presentations right away.

It's not suitable for people who want to work in offline mode because Miro requires constant internet connectivity.

Miro does everything we as a company need. While there are competitors, we are yet to find anything better. Miro has helped relay information to our stakeholders; we don’t need to screen share boring documents, but instead, we can share our boards where our stakeholders can collaborate with us, making our meetings more efficient.

We have a lot of meetings (like many do) where the team ideates and talks in circles. Miro is a supper effective way to get those things written down. To plant a stake in the ground so we can take next steps. I find these especially useful in strategy-esque conversations.

We also love Miro for retrospectives. Any time we want to get a lot of input from a lot of people it is super nice to have a series of frames that we can walk through together while individually working on.

It has also been extremely useful in process mapping. Love being able to use different shapes and colors to show what is happening.

It is not great for timelines, I find it difficult to make adjustments and label things easily Also not great for making deliverables that are intended to be continuously used from a PM perspective. Not that I would expect it to be but still.

Generally I find it well suited for almost every scenario, given that participants have used Miro before. It's not the most straightforward tool to pick up immediately if you're only used to MS programmes. I've used it for workshop, mood boards / Pinterest-like activities, task tracking, brainstorming, asynchronous collaboration, you name it.

Great for walkthroughs of changes with screenshots and storing lots of visual info/research. I have been told it is good for process mapping, but I prefer to use technical notation (BPMN), so I don't think it would be suitable for me. I would use it for more visual flows if required (e.g. user journey mapping)

I turn to Miro for anything where I need to get what’s in my brain out on to canvas quickly. That’s often on private boards and I’m very comfortable with the tool. For others, I recommend Miro for team collaboration, and for my design team they leverage it heavily for workshops, discovery etc

I use Miro everyday - it's so flexible and suited to meet most - if not all of my needs.

However

I am a non-linear thinker - and those that are linear thinkers tend to use Jira/Confluence/excel/word/etc to manage their work... (yuck)

maybe an ETL tool that allows a linear thinker to translate an excel spreadsheet into a mind map and vice versa would be helpful.

Also, exporting a bunch of post-it notes into a spreadsheet did not yield a useful result - so maybe when a user clicks 'export' a dialog asks for questions that allows a user to express/describe their intended outcome...

I highly recommend to any potential customers or user seeking a powerful and reliable collaborative platform for their team or business. Miro is an indispensable tool for me and my team. It has streamlined collaboration and enhanced teamwork and productivity. The customer support is also another additional advantage because they're so responsive and helpful 24/7.

I think Miro is great for workshops and collaborative work. I think Kahoot may have a bit of an adavantage in incorporating features (usable in whiteboard) for things like quizzing. (I have not tested this in Kahoot yet) so can’t review.

I love using Miro as a BA! It is a really important tool that allows me to work interactively with my team on several important flows.

From whiteboarding to presentations there is something for everything. I have used Miro for kickoffs, mapping timelines or system flows and also putting it all together in to a presentation.

It is really helpful for any phase of the project, right from brainstorming to market research. It’s also very helpful for mapping out thorough processes, timelines, what work is required where and who would need to do it. There are some really helpful templates in Miro which help in doing all these things. Once the project is over, Miro also helps in some cool retrospective templates.
However, Miro is not very great when it comes to presentations to senior stakeholders, for that, the best possible tool historically has been presentations and continue to be.

The good-

Marketing documentation and templates, such as content briefs and persona style documentation is great.

product management style work such as roadmaps, feature requests, product launches.

Room for improvement-

anything that eventually needs to be presented to an executive needs to be done in PowerPoint.

rev control is lacking and needs improvement
