Effective remote working
Overall Satisfaction with Miro
Tool for remote working. Used primarily as a whiteboard for workshops but has a growing use as a source of documentation for projects. Whiteboarding is mostly used to add post-its to preset questions or other methods to capture input/contribution. As a source of documentation, shapes and lines are used with tests to draw, for example, delivery roadmaps or frameworks.
Pros
- Linking objects together with the draggable line which anchors
- Resizing post-its, etc.
- Show / hide frames
Cons
- It can be tricky to track the zoom sometimes and results in you having a text box way too small for the surrounding objects - supersizing text is tricky
- Difficult to prevent guests in a workshop accidentally moving frames, etc.
- Good: Rapid adaptation to remote working for teams
- Good: Easy to cut and paste images of roadmaps or frameworks into other documents
Sustained the ability of the organisation to continue business as usual and new development work in a remote context. Facilitated recruitment of new staff without the constraints of travel to a specified site/office.

- MURAL (formerly Mural.ly)
At a former organisation, both products were trialed. Miro was selected as the preferred option, I believe, for pricing reasons. (but I wasn't part of that decision)
