Overall Satisfaction with Miro

We use Miro primarily for brainstorming sessions and ideating new ideas. It allows us to put all our ideas in one place as a group, simultaneously, and then organize them by themes.
  • unique user experience
  • lots of tool options/choose your adventure
  • easy to access from any computer
  • I believe it could do a better job of helping to organize. sometimes when there are too many people working at once, it gets messy and we end up going in circles with our discussions
  • could be more intuitive/user-friendly. i can't put my finger on exactly what it is, but trying to work quickly in miro is tough and i find myself spending more time figuring out the tool or helping others do so
  • maybe it needs a native app vs. just the browser access?
  • reduced productivity in agile work sessions
  • easier marketing flow reviews
Not sure if a native app exists, but maybe that would make it a more intuitive product to use. I feel like having it in the browser makes it feel limited and a bit confusing, which ends up slowing down team members.
Just open the browser / link and you're there! Super easy.
I think the idea of it is great, but there's a steep learning curve and some of the buttons can be awkward / not intuitive to use.

I think it's well-suited to brainstorming and ideating, similar to how you'd use a chalkboard to map out a new process flow. In my experience, we've used it more for brainstorming a particular idea, and I feel like the conversations end up going in circles because it can be hard to follow along with other people's inputs. It also has quite a bit of a learning curve, so almost every session involves stopping to train someone who can't figure it out. It's probably been most successful with groups of about 5-6 when there's one person leading, but anything bigger than that can get overwhelming.
