Overall Satisfaction with Miro

We use Miro to engage with cross-functional team members that are located remotely. When we engage with outside consultants on a research project, we use Miro to brainstorm and then flush out ideas in a series of fast-paced events that Miro is well suited for. We also use Miro to brainstorm new processes that reach across multiple internal cross-functional teams.
  • Miro works very well at allowing multiple users to provide input simultaneously which allows for greater productivity, the autonomy of input, and participation from the team.
  • Miro sessions can be easily set up to visually guide teams through a fast-paced series of mini-events that allow a quick refinement and prioritization of ideas and thoughts.
  • Miro provides a seamless easy to use interface which does not require time-consuming setup/logins and training. Teams can be productive in the first session.
  • Miro uses color coding and quick tools that allow users to easily understand groupings and ideas and collaborate.
  • The use of images is not user-friendly; works but is not quick or easy.
  • Could create some templates to aid the leader in setting up various sessions instead of needing to create from scratch. Could be based on accepted brainstorming and prioritization best practices.
  • Meeting times were reduced from 6 hours onsite to 3 hours remote with all work completed.
  • Travel cost avoidance was significant.
  • Output quality and participation resulted in a much higher buy-in from the teams.
It was very seamless and easy.

Miro is built for this type of collaboration and Miro blows these products out of the water for this application. There is really no comparison.
When engaging in brainstorming, process, prioritization, or work breakdown sessions in which most teammates are attending remotely. When engaging in sessions where there may be multiple levels of leadership encourages participation and keeps high-level leaders from drowning out lower-level teammates. When engaging with consultants for research or project-based sessions.
