Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Miro was used by the curriculum pilot team. We had to do a curriculum pilot in a virtual setting and Miro was used as our collaborative whiteboard. Instead of making poster papers to put on the walls in a room, we used Miro and then added notes to our work. This allowed for a collaborative work environment where we could see the contributions and progress of each small group.

Pros

  • Large whiteboard space that is easy to navigate because of the "map box".
  • The tools allowed us to separate ideas and work, but also draw and make connections between each segment.
  • It highlighted where other users were working so that work did not overlap.

Cons

  • It was a perfect substitute for our needs. Did not personally experience any difficulties.
  • Was a perfect digital substitute for a physical work environment.
  • Increased collaboration and contribution because members did not have to wait for their turn to speak.
There was a learning curve for some users that were less familiar with the technology. It provides more freedom than say Google Slides, but with that freedom comes some learning. After users became familiar, they had success in using the platform.
It takes some practice to use effectively.
We were able to complete a project that would have required a 7-day in-person training. It was an effective use of time and resources. I think we completed our project faster than if we had done it in person.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Miro's feature set?

Yes

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

Great for collaborative work that involves multiple small groups. I do not think Miro would be a useful tool for general presentations or collaboration where a single person is in charge of documenting conversations. In my experience, it would also not be useful for information that needed to be presented in a linear fashion.
