Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I used Miro as a student at the University of Toronto. It was a great program for a series of interactive lectures over Zoom. The instructor divided the class into groups and Miro allowed us to all work independently on the same assignment, then share our work with one another. It was an aesthetically pleasing program.

Likelihood to Recommend

Miro was very well suited to delivering an online lecture to a small class (20 students). I would think it would be less well suited to larger groups of participants, given that the screen can become too busy with all the cursors moving around. It would be tricky to allow larger groups to all participate on a single page since there is a limited amount of space which people can reasonably be expected to pay attention to.
