Overall Satisfaction with Miro

I use Miro for different activities:
  • Work sessions and co-creations with clients
  • Organize projects
  • Resource repository
  • Create documentation
  • Trainings and presentations
  • User friendly
  • Download functionality
  • Customization of colors, fonts, shapes, sizes...
  • Miroverse
  • Frames organization (by slots or indicating the position by number)
  • Allow uploading backups of large files
  • Improve loading time or image loading in large documents
  • [Would like more fonts and options for treatment of text (separation between paragraphs, padding in text fields, ect.)]
  • Quick preparation of workshops
  • User-friendly platform for non-digital users
I appreciate the free trainings and webinars to learn new features (also the pop-ups with new releases).
I've tried to integrate with Figma but I haven't succeeded (I don't know if it's a Figma plugin mistake or Miro's).
I've tried with Teams, but my license is free, so I can't integrete both.
With the pandemic we have been able to carry out a multitude of work sessions, both internally and with clients. For us there is a before and after and it will be difficult to do face-to-face co-creations again without Miro's easiness.I would like to [see] improve would be the "frame management". Lately, I have done workshops with several groups (each group with its own frames) and with different sessions on the same board. This makes that there are many frames and if you get lost when creating them, the order of these becomes chaos. When you want to correct it, it is very tedious and you may need a lot of time. [I have found] that if you work with the app you only have access to the boards you own. There is no way (or I have not found it) to be able to add access to boards of other owners. I work as a guest editor on some boards and I always have to do it via web because I don't know how to access from the app.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Yes

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?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

  • Is user-friendly and the guest users don't need to have an account.
  • The interface is more attractive.
  • You can customize a lot of things such as colours, notes sizes, etc.
  • You can easily download the frames/document.
  • You can do basic things with a free account.
Miro is well suited for asynchronous and real-time workshops.

For me it's a bit dangerous using Miro for big documents because it can be lost by accident o Miro fails. I've lost documentation or research information because of this.

Sometimes the creation of documentation is tedious because it is not possible to automate the order of the pages or create "master" elements that can be repeated or iterated. If you have to make a change you need a lot of time to do it one by one.
