Overall Satisfaction with Miro
I use it for virtual brainstorming sessions involving people across many sites within my company. It's the best brainstorming tool I've come across when you can't meet as a group in a physical location. I do occasionally use it for online meetings but usually, Microsoft Teams are sufficient for my needs for online meetings.
- Seeing where people are in an online space, what they are looking at, what they are thinking by seeing their cursor motions
- Dropping drawings or pictures in a shared space to communicate a concept
- Collaborating on drawings
- Grouping whiteboards/spaces together
- Onboarding newbies. It's a barrier to usage to know that I need to get people trained and oriented to use the tool effectively. Sometimes it's not worth the hassle.
- I have not used it enough to notice a quantifiable impact, but qualitatively it has allowed us to better brainstorm and capture ideas with virtual teams.
We have been able to brainstorm with remote workers and feel part of the same team and process without needing to be physically in the same location. And we have been able to go back to saved brainstorming Miro boards over and over to continue to build on ideas.
