Likelihood to Recommend

Miro is a powerful instrument when you need to work with something which should be visualized, reviewed, and redacted by many people. The platform provides a lot of instruments making the described precesses easier and much more visible. However proper content organizing requires some skill and preparation. That's why the platform is less suitable for quick Presentations.
