Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Engineers from my department are currently using Miro to help explain new designs to others, define things like file structures (i.e. where is this and where is that?). We are also using Miro to share notes during remote meetings. It is helping us put things in common when working remotely but is also a nice tool to organize your own ideas and such.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Live editing from multiple users.
Quick creation of simple boards.
Templates!

Cons

PDF export is nice but can be tricky to get it right.

Return on Investment

Improved productivity on remote meetings.

Implementation Rating

Not many. I feel like we are still figuring out how to incorporate the tool into our work, but we are using it more and more.

Ease of Integration

It is very easy to use and understand, it hardly requires any training.

Collaboration

It helps to share ideas visually during meetings, as everyone can edit the board or just move the mouse around to explain something.

Likelihood to Recommend

Miro is nice for engineering teams working remotely that require sharing design info between teammates in a visual way. It is also good for live editing and note sharing during meetings, so it helps to work together in real-time. It is also good for personal use, but it excels when working with others.
