Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Miro is a great tool for brainstorming and creating diagrams. It's easy to learn and use, has many intuitive actions, and is very helpful for collaboration. It has quite a large variety of templates. As for creating mockups with Miro: it's pretty basic, and can be used when creating simple ones. As a lecturer in college, I recommended my students to use this tool and they found it pretty easy to use. Actually, 90% of my student's deliverables were created using Miro.

Less relevant for my use of Miro.
Collaboration is easy, especially when brainstorming. I used the whiteboard with my students and it was fun and messy to see how 30+ students work at once on the same page. My students enjoyed it very much and when they created their projects, it was easy for me to check their progress and communicate with them about it and ways to improve their design on the spot.

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

I use both tools. As for complex prototyping: I'm creating these in Axure, as this tool includes many options that do not exist (yet?) in Miro. I mostly use Miro for brainstorming with my colleagues and collaborating with them. As a college lecturer, I use Miro to teach my students about the tool, its ease of use, and to let them be familiar with the process of creating simple mockups using existing templates and components.
