Miro is excellent for student collaboration and brainstorming | TrustRadius

Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Miro as an online platform for collaboration with other students in my team. It was very helpful during COVID for distanced learning and currently when doing calls online. We use it for the post-its during using design thinking methods. It is helpful as it is alive, casual format, and good for iterations and brainstorming.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Live collaboration
Colourful post-its
Large board space
Opens easily when type in miro in search

Cons

Sometimes it makes arrows when I don’t want them
A feature where you pause seeing other people’s changes, like for group voting so you don’t get influenced by others.
A few fonts might be nice
