Overall Satisfaction with Miro

I was introduced to Miro during presales onboarding training as a tool for whiteboarding customer discovery sessions in a virtual world. Gone are the days when we could go onsite and do actual whiteboarding, so having a solution like Miro is needed. I've used other tools (Microsoft whiteboard, zoom whiteboard, and Visio). Visio is too technical/rigid for most casual uses (other than process maps). My experience with Visio is that it's not collaborator friendly. MS Whiteboard is very limited in terms of zoom/formatting, not good for drawing (process maps), and limited fonts/colors. Lately, I also used Miro for a special project I'm working on. Wanted to have a single collaborative place to brainstorm ideas, group thoughts, and develop action plans. There seems to be no limit to what I can create in Miro, and the templates are good for a quick start. I can honestly say that Miro is the best all-around tool for all things virtual whiteboarding. I might even use it if I'm on site. I've only scratched the surface of what it can do, after using it for a couple of months. Looking forward to doing more with collaboration, and trying the Slack integration. The only downside so far is that I can only have one "team" with the free version.

Pros

  • virtual whiteboarding
  • collaboration
  • formatting and images
  • easy to use

Cons

  • nothing yet
  • improves collaboration
  • saves time not having ideas in several different documents
still working through getting access to integrate into Zoom and Slack. So far, no real "implementation" is required.
Seems easy so far, but still waiting on 'permission' from my organization for connection to zoom and slack.
Its a game changer.

Great for collaborative whiteboarding. Might not be suited for official process maps/documents.
