Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Miro is being used increasingly across Global Supply and Manufacturing to provide virtual whiteboarding and visualization capabilities as we continue to collaborate remotely during the COVID-19 work-from-home stretch. Miro has also added to our ability to collaborate with colleagues in Asia and other consultants and contractors working from locations other than WHQ. So helpful for both live collaboration and asynchronous collaboration.
  • Any exercise that would involve a whiteboard and sticky notes.
  • Collaborating on visualization of flowcharts and dependencies.
  • Iterative exercises, live or asynchronously.
  • Integration with Slack is virtually unusable in a large company -- cannot load user list.
  • Our implementation of guest access and collaboration doesn't work.
  • Improved productivity.
  • More value from remote teammates.
We've had some difficulties with our implementation when it comes to the size of our org. Many teams don't have access so we have to ask for it on an individual basis. I think this is due to the licensing structure and cost. In addition, the implementation of guest access isn't easy to figure out. This is due, in part, to security limitations. Integration with Slack has been problematic as Miro seems to struggle with large user directories. Nice integration with Atlassian tools, though.
I was not involved in the setup of integration.
A huge impact here. We already needed to engage teammates and partners in Asia. Since COVID-19, we've needed tools like Miro to engage everyone. Being able to do so live and visually is so much better than working in Powerpoint over Zoom.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

Miro is outstanding for iterative, collaborative exercises that you might do on a whiteboard with sticky notes. Increasingly useful for other types of visualization. Really helps when working with remote colleagues and asynchronously. A growing library of templates provides ideas when you're looking for a new, better, or quicker way to set up and capture ideas and output from workshops.
