Overall Satisfaction with Miro

We use it for strategic planning, workshops, and retrospectives. For strategic planning, I use it to present product roadmaps to stakeholders and the team to make sure we're all on the same page. For workshops, we use Miro to be able to conduct larger-scale workshops where the majority of the participants are working remotely. The weekly usage is for retrospectives for a software development team.
  • allow remote teams to collaborate
  • it's easy to use
  • visualize workflows and ideas
  • I'd like "elements" of your workspace to snap to a grid easier when it's getting crowded with arrows and boxes
  • when a lot of people use the "track participants" feature, it's a bit processor heavy
  • Better "avatars" when moving around the boards
  • A clear visual presentation of the roadmap made in Miro has been appreciated
I'm not really sure what "implementation" means in this context. But I assume we are talking about how we integrated Miro into our workflow and how the admin was handled? In that case, I think it has worked out fine, it's super easy to get people on board and to get everyone working from day one with a little introduction.
Can't really say I've used much of this feature, we've only used it by sending out invites to people that we want to participate.
It has improved the team ability for sure, but even more, it has helped us throw in non-team-members into the loop and have short or long sessions with them. I'd say it has made it even more smooth than throwing these meetings at a physical workplace. And since most people tend to have used Miro by now after 2 years of WFH we don't really spend any time on introductions anymore.

Would you buy Miro again?

We chose Miro because it filled the blanks when it comes to interactive collaboration and visualization. None of the other tools we use daily promotes the kind of active involvement by the team members and our external workshop or meeting participants. Miro has become the standard tool at our company. I guess the Google-made tools could have done the job as well.
Jira Work Management (Jira Core), Atlassian Confluence, Slack, Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365)
The best use case for me is to visualize roadmaps and product strategies. It's easy to modify and develop over time. Less appropriate use cases have shown to be when you have hybrid meetings where half of the participants are in one room and the rest join in remotely - but that is probably more a case of how we utilize Miro.
