Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Miro is regularly used as a collaboration workspace. Due to our remote working, we can no longer meet up in a space to write on walls and move stickies around when planning work - Miro gives us this virtual flexibility and more by providing the right tools for us all to dive in and work together with an easy to use interface. Best of all, we don't have to take photos of it when we're done as it's always available for future review!
  • Collaboration tool.
  • Permits quick mock-ups/designs.
  • Allows you to tag/comment to other users on specific areas of interest.
  • The desktop app can be a little slow to get going sometimes.
  • Some additional formatting options on cards would be nice to have.
  • Faster at working up process flows while we all work from home.
  • Greater information sharing across the organization.
  • The only negative is that it's one more system to check.
I don't recall us having a specific implementation project. We more or less jumped in feet first and started working away with ease!
Our integration is likely considered 'loose' in that we mostly just link out from Miro to other information sources using its linking features. We otherwise use it as a mostly stand-alone system.
It has helped enormously in this regard. Having a single, always up-to-date panel we can review at any point in time is very valuable. So much better than sharing documents and not knowing which version is current or waiting on changes to be made elsewhere. Everything is live and accessible, which speeds things up greatly.

  • MURAL (formerly Mural.ly)
Based on my (limited) use of Mural, the feature sets seemed very similar. Both seemed to work towards the same goal. Mural had a slightly nicer UI, but otherwise, I didn't see any earth-shattering differences.
Atlassian JIRA Align (formerly AgileCraft), Atlassian Confluence, Slack
Miro is fantastic for collaborating on designs, processes, or even just getting everyone's collective thoughts down in the one spot for retros and other meetings. It levels the playing field in remote working times and allows everyone to contribute. We have used Miro as a Kanban tool which for smaller things it works rather well as it's quick and easy to get started, but for larger, more structured work, it cannot replace other more established tools (Jira, etc.)!
