Overall Satisfaction with Miro

As a Product Manager, I use Miro on a daily basis for everything from brainstorming sessions, conducting retrospectives, to go over features with the legal team, going over GTM plans with the lifecycle marketing team and aligning on front-end and back-end decisions with my engineering team. Miro is truly my favourite tool to work with because of its versatility, I can do everything in one single board and that helps a ton with all my stakeholders and partners.

Pros

  • Easy to use
  • Facilitates collaboration
  • Great templates!
  • Helps planning work really well
  • Anonymous mode works wonders for retros

Cons

  • Adding video links directly (not having to embed them, just copy -paste)
  • Automatically add the most used apps
  • Recommend templates based on my previous boards and the features I use the most
  • Improved productivity
  • Better organization overall - all my features have 1 board that contains everything from initial idea to final UI/UX review
  • Improved collaboration with legal team (they were used to working with word docs only but Miro has helped tremendously for them to understand what our features are and what they're meant to do)
I did not participate in the implementation of Miro
It was fairly easy to start using it with the Jira integration
My team is based in different locations across Canda so Miro helps us stay on track and align on the work that we need to do. Everyone is always able to collaborate, brainstorm together, challenge what's written on the board and reach consensus of what we should or not do next.
I prefer Miro over all the other products I've used for collaboration because it allows me to represent my ideas visually and everyone is able to go back to the board whenever they need to. It is easy to leave comments and suggestions. The only thing I like Notion for is to write my PRDs and Business Cases, so mostly documentation and writing.

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

Miro is perfect for brainstorming with different stakeholders, it is great for async cross-collaboration, and it is also perfect for planning work (I use it to plan my user stories so that I can visually see what needs to be done and what the order of the work is, I then take all my visual elements to Jira for ticketing), it is the best tool for remote teams as it gives us freedom to create and add whatever we want, whenever we want it, there's literally a template or a tool for everything!

Using Miro

  • Async and remote collaboration
  • Product ideas brainstorming
  • Decision making with engineering
  • UX/UI legal reviews using a Miro board
  • Process mapping in the product team
  • Technical diagramming (I am not sure what our devs currently use)
It is my favourite tool to work with, I use it every single day as a Product Manager.
