Overall Satisfaction with Miro
At the university, we use Miro for various tasks from tracking project timelines, brainstorming, ideating, sharing prototypes, storyboarding, and running other various remote workshops. It helps people remain organized, focused, and motivated besides helping to engage participants fully. The timer feature is especially useful since it helps to find a clear course of action without spending forever beating about the bush. The comments, drawing, and chat feature makes the workshop sessions very interactive as well. The infinitely large canvas helps people think outside the box. Regardless of whether it's a two-week-long design sprint or a short jam session Miro is our go-to tool for collaboration.
Pros
- Texts in sticky notes scale responsively to a reasonable degree helping to achieve conciseness without sacrificing paramount details
- The simple drawing tool makes it easy to get across ideas quickly with sketches
- Templates offer enough variety to run sprints, 5-why sessions, mapping user-journeys and many more team activities to save time beside being fun
Cons
- Needs to add feature to play audio content
- Voice command
- Dedicated education accounts for students
- Conduct classes while mitigating the risk of COVID
We have collaborated with people from all over Asia and the UK on Miro completely online during the time COVID was in its prime. Even now the organization relies heavily on Miro to engage students and staff from all over the world. Miro is being used to work on projects of all sizes and intensities here.

- MURAL (formerly Mural.ly)
Miro offers an infinite canvas that is more intuitive to navigate around unlike Mural. The navigation controls on Mural can be quite confusing sometimes and people end up moving items on the canvas. Updates on Miro are less of a hassle unlike Mural because it does not take long and is pretty smooth.
