Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Miro is used mostly for doing retrospectives in different development teams. We used it also for our management retrospectives where we do longer retrospectives every 2[to]3 months. Sometimes it's not possible to have all people participating, so we use Miro features often to compare the last retros and last outputs of the same problems.
  • You see what other participant are doing.
  • You can easily hide next steps.
  • Comparison of last steps.
  • Have a quick onboarding video.
  • Try to have clearer view for users [whom are using Miro for the first time.]
  • Be able for the moderator to bring all participant to a focus board.
  • Improved retro time.
  • Preparation for meetings.
  • Great discussions on some strategic meetings.
Now the implementation is very good it's working on different browsers without any problems. [They] are a lot of features and possibilities to have innovative grooming, retro sessions with all [kinds] of users (developers, managers, testers, executives).
You are able to put all kinds of graphics and pics from whatever sources. So [users] can express themselves in different ways.
Most of our project already before the covid pandemic has been done remotely. Miro had a lot of[ impacts] to made some [innovative session] which different clients remotely.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Miro go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

Miro has definitely a lot more features to have more creative sessions with different [kinds] of users. Trello is more for async use and [planning] of [tasks] instead of doing retros, creative sessions, and online meetings with new clients.
Miro is well suited for larger teams (more than 6). So long-running retrospectives can be done more interactive and interesting. And if the team is working on a long-running project you can think of different types of retrospectives so retros won't be boring and can be made very interesting.
