Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Miro is used across our organization for ideation, project planning, and a place to centralize our thoughts, research, and ideas. The biggest benefits are that it allows us to work in a more creative manner with remote teams and allows for teams to be able to easily access the work of adjacent teams.
  • Ideation.
  • Mapping.
  • Remote collaboration.
  • The navigation is not always the smoothest.
  • Readability is sometimes an issue.
  • Hard to keep track of all the different boards we have!
  • Improved collaboration.
  • Improved visibility.
  • Not sure if it has actually improved productivity...
Some teams use it extremely well, others less so. It's really individual. As someone who works with numerous teams across my org, I find consistency to be a challenge.
As mentioned previously I work across numerous teams - some have hit their stride immediately and others less so. We have a general template but every team has really made Miro their own - not all equally as effectively. That said the overall sentiment is positive and I think it has increased collaboration.
We do a lot of ideation which traditionally would have been done on a whiteboard - Miro has taken the place of the whiteboard when we are working from home. We still prefer to work in person when we can, but even when we do we will photograph our whiteboard and re-create it in Miro.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Miro's feature set?

No

Did Miro live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Miro go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

I haven't actually used similar products - previously the work done in Miro would have been done with sticky notes and a whiteboard or with a pen and paper. Obviously, Miro is much better for working remotely and for sharing your work with other teams. That said there is a learning curve. Plus there is something fun about the tactile nature of just writing stuff down physically.
Miro is great for remote collaboration. I also use it for mapping out my thoughts. I like it less when I just need to write something out so I often default to Google Docs.
