Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I have used Miro over the last year mainly in my group projects. It helps to provide a common working space for me and my colleagues to develop charts and graphs while we all work together on them with plenty of provided templates. It was easy for us to find the right one for the task we are working on.

Implementation Rating

10

If I would say that listening to suggestions of customers or specifically the suggestions related to solving issues would help a lot and gives a better customer experience. I faced some issues and found many users had the same issues but it wasn't solved in the future updates of Miro.

Ease of Integration

7

Miro has a great capability in terms of using the web version which makes it easier for anybody who has a browser can use it however there are some issues when you are trying to import data from for example excel to work on them on Miro however it might be out of the scope of the program but it would be nice if at least it can recognize them.

Collaboration

We used Miro last year in group projects and it provided a great common working space to work together with my colleagues in real-time and develop charts and graphs easily. On the other hand, we faced some issues in exporting our graphs and templates because it was missing borders.

Alternatives Considered

Miro has better and more tools that enable you to do more than just writing or sketching and which I couldn't find in Microsoft whiteboard for example. However, there were some features in Microsoft whiteboard and it is a free product also that are provided like exporting in high resolution or changing backgrounds.

Other Software Used

Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365), SOLIDWORKS, Webex App
