Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It is used by certain groups during some of our courses to facilitate brainstorming, collaboration, and ideation. It helps us to be more flexible than other tools (e.g., PowerPoint, etc.). Group sizes are typically 3-6 people per board. We use Miro on an individual basis and sometimes hold workshops that are based on Miro.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Collaboration amongst team members (everyone can bring in their ideas).
Clear structure of workflow is enabled.
Integration of elements is nicely done (e.g., uploading pictures, PDFs, etc).

Cons

Handling on the laptop could be enhanced (mouse already helps).

Return on Investment

Improved Productivity
More efficient teamwork

Implementation Rating

Ease of Integration

It runs on every browser quite well, so I do not see big challenges for integration.

Collaboration

I helped a lot and made sure everyone could actively contribute.

Likelihood to Recommend

Especially, at the start of the project when you are laying the groundwork of how to proceed, Miro helps you as you can freely design and equip the board with the material you wish. To use Miro throughout the whole project (and not just for one workshop or so), there is a lot of effort required to actually build very nice boards in advance.
