Overall Satisfaction with Miro

I use Miro for internal workshops, especially for ideation sprints. The moderators pre-populate the board and then let all the stakeholders join the board during the workshop. Colleagues who join the workshop can vote to express their preferences, they can put stickers with their notes and share their thoughts. I used it both as a moderator and as a participant.
  • Easy access
  • Easy to copy paste images
  • Easy to navigate
  • Links to external files
  • Automatic clustering (based on colours or notes)
  • Adjust position/dimension of boxes
  • Allowed remote workshops and discussions
  • Reduce time for remote workshops
  • Allowed remote teamwork
no specific insight
Not really easy to use external links or to export to different tools. It would be much better if there could be an automatic export of specific sessions in excel or powerpoint (not as images but as editable screens).
In these times where we all work remotely, it really helped for workshops.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

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

I used Microsoft Whiteboards but really too little to give valuable comparison comments.
One scenario where Miro is well suited is for innovation workshops or innovation sprints, where you need people to vote and to share their comments. In my opinion, Miro is not well suited to do more "structured" tasks like planning for projects or resources. It is also not well suited for summarizing.
