Overall Satisfaction with Miro

For code flows/architecture/UI/UX design, and very often as an ad-lib whiteboarding tool to jot down shared thoughts as discussions take place. For retros/team activities -- easy to refer back to and re-use as templates. Miro is used across the entire organization.

Pros

  • Easy to get started -- create a new board / tools easily accessible and intuitive to use.
  • Voting mechanism.
  • Relatively quick to load.

Cons

  • Better diagramming (easy to fix and align things in place).
  • Quick, productive collaborative whiteboarding during remote meetings.
  • Documentation with Miro not catalogued neatly.
  • Voting feature and timers make meetings run more efficiently.
Would be good to be able to hide my cursor movement (but still show the contributions I make of course). Can be distracting if someone who doesn't have a habit of hiding collaborator cursors is sharing/streaming their Miro to a group, and my cursor is bouncing around while I'm editing/moving around a focused area.
Would be good to have better embed/PDF functionality for documentation.
Very positively. Really quick to have a board going and immediately get others to contribute to the board.

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?

Yes

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

Far more utility and expandability and versatility.
The realtime smoothness of collaborative editing is also unparalleled.
In general, it is a great collaborative whiteboarding tool, but not so great for generating actual living documentation that is easily referred to or references in other documents/platforms.
