  • Visualize options - many different options for how to show process and organize thoughts is very helpful
  • Miroverse/templating is great to draw from and be inspired by
  • Opportunities to contribute to the Miroverse is fun - we have a team member who was recently published and it was an exciting moment for her and our team.
  • Sometimes hard to know where to start for what you're trying to accomplish - as a manager I am not in there day to day and sometimes I just need some easy-to-go templates to help me lay my thoughts out. Sometimes the Miroverse can be too much to sort through, and a blank slate can be overwhelming - help me get started!
  • It would be amazing to have a guide to say... what are you trying to do today? And then give me some starting options that may just be nicely positioned and coordinated colored boxes that don't make me think. i spend too much time thinking about things like shapes, colors, post-it vs. text box vs shape and it can be frustrating
  • More targeted organization of the Miroverse. There's a lot there and it would be helpful to get some more targeted recommendations
  • Color palettes - help non-designers make it beautiful without having to think too hard about it.
  • Organize and find my boards - i have lots and it's hard to remember which ones i want for which purpose and have been shared... it can be too much.

  • Easy navigator and board visibility
  • Common shapes and elements that I need to use are available
  • Resizing makes it very flexible
  • I'd love to see Grammarly (or some sort of autocorrect tools) on top of Miro
  • Arrows and lines are not easy to use and sometimes drag my frames
  • I'd love to see more real product shapes and full components (not just buttons)
  • Benchmarking please! ideas for wireframes etc

  • Generating sticky notes - most people can figure that out w/ no/little orientation
  • process diagraming - this has gotten much better in the last year
  • wireframing websites and user interfaces
  • icons - they used to stink, but now they are WAY better - a small but important thing
  • Some objects that support text don't support formatting (i.e. bullets) and that can be annoying, especially when you don't test it first and then all of the sudden you need them. I wouldn't expect support for stickies, but pretty much all other objects.
  • the product is doing a really good job of releasing new features, i'm not really sure I have more suggestions

  • Offer unlimited space on their boards
  • Enables colaborative work
  • Provides conversion of content to other formats
  • It keeps dislogging from time to time and relogging on is time consuming
  • Large boards take a long time to load
  • The drawing of shapes is quite limited

  • There is a wonderful variety of template layouts relevant to project needs
  • Project access and organization are paramount to ensuring the right people see the right things
  • Miro promotes both real-time engagement and updates to make sure people in other time zones can access the most updated information
  • If the organization has boards divided up by department, it can be confusing to know where to put a new board/how to make sure it winds up in the correct place for teammates to access based on their permissions
  • In some cases, users may not understand the best template to use to meet their needs. For example, I used the mind-map template frequently, but a colleague had no clue how to use it and felt there was no hint or "pro-tip" on how they could benefit from using it.
  • This is purely aesthetic, but if more colors could be implemented into things like the sticky notes, that would be great. Sometimes, there were more people working on a project than there were colors available to differentiate between who was sticking what feedback in the project.

  • Presentation
  • Collaborative ideation (whiteboarding)
  • Infinite canvas that no Microsoft product can handle
  • Starter Templates
  • AI integration
  • I always try to start with a template, but often can't find something that really matches what I need
  • Maybe add more to the Kanban tools or make a special Kanban, but we could use nested cards (to represent hierarchies such as Epic-Feature-Story-Task levels)
  • My main customer, the Veteran's Administration is blocking Miro on their firewall (but Mural is not blocked)

  • Its the only tool that my organization permits (that does what it needs to do)
  • Somewhat-simple interface
  • Infinite "space"
  • AI - "delete background" tools work well for sketch uploads
  • Sticky notes
  • Video formats not supported
  • Multi-uploads not supported
  • Sketching directly in Miro is horrible (ie "Pen" tools are basically useless). Look to Procreate for a better experience
  • Connection lines default to snap to image - very annoying!
  • Zoom/ Pan hotkeys could be more obvious (for novice users)

  • Has a lot of options when creating the board.
  • Once you get the hang of it, it is easy to use.
  • Giving people access is easy to do as well.
  • I think being able to edit the board is easier and not having to switch to the cursor on the board every time you want to move across it.
  • Sometimes the board randomly gets messed up, and I'm not sure why.

  • GenAI intergtaion
  • Templates provided for use
  • Sometimes depending upon zoom level line looks very thin and not visible to remote audience
  • Background color change (ignore if already there)
  • Ability to draw professional diagrams like LucidChart

  • Fast brain-to-whiteboard transfer
  • mind mapping
  • templates
  • close to being able to use for some design tasks, but not there yet
  • export stickies to CSV could be a lot better
  • Ability to remove background from images would be nice
  • Mind maps are not as flexible - ex. you can't have a 2 way mind map with 2 endpoints

  • Kanban project management
  • Planning and scheduling
  • Shared board for Zoom brainstorming workshops
  • Sticky notes only have two available fonts--please enable more fonts
  • Interface can still be fiddly when trying to select particular items within a frame, instead of selecting the frame.
  • Being able to easily cut and paste boards from one project to another would be very handy

  • Collaboration
  • Ease of use
  • Simplicity
  • Certain integrations could be stresses out - I know they exist but I never used them because they’re hidden somewhere
  • Organisational structure - eg different groups can run out of space so you have to go to another group

  • Collaboration: Allows us to invite team members to perform edits on the same board.
  • Flowchart view helps us in seeing the big picture & removing the redundancies.
  • When we get a good number of boards, we can easily filter them based on who owns them or arrange them chronologically or alphabetically.
  • The cloud data storage policies might be an issue for some locales as it stores everything that's created in boards.
  • Both starter & the business plan come with a subscription cost.
  • No offline mode, it requires an active internet connection.

  • Granular settings - board style (dots/squares) and snap-to-grid options are particularly useful when drawing highly detailed diagrams.
  • Copying and Pasting Excel into Miro as sticky notes or a table is extremely time-saving!
  • The ability to add brand colors helps us stay on brand and draw up presentation slides more efficiently.
  • Auto-size a table based on the amount of text instead of having to manually change the height and width, similar to auto-height and auto-width in Excel.
  • Increase the number of brand colors you can set.
  • Customizable sticky note colors.

  • Collaboration
  • Templates and ideas
  • Ease of use, quick to get team going
  • Right level of complexity, not too much but has pretty full ability
  • Miro is down more than I would like
  • (take with grain of salt) Training. I'd like to have a clear path to getting better
  • Have templates that are formatted for export, things can end up small
  • Have templates optimized for consolidating data captured in large board
