Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Miro helps our team to come together in a way that resembles how we used to work in the office. Prior to using Miro, we found we were missing that collaboration aspect that you get when you are all in a room together, writing on sticky notes and bouncing off each other. Now we use Miro to kick off projects and campaigns, for research/inspiration collation, to give colleagues feedback, and even for social events.
  • In real-time whiteboard collaboration.
  • File processing/management.
  • Templates and creative personalisation.
  • Board sharing with non Miro users.
  • Video/animation file embedding.
  • CMYK Image rendering - colours often become muted.
  • Board management - would be good to be able to nest folders.
  • Team management - Seperate teams with one account.
  • Improved productivity.
  • Encouraged collaboration.
  • Facilitates collaboration.
  • Brings people together.
  • Can be used for fun too - digital board games.
The onboarding was smooth, but it would be good to have a setting where only certain people in the team can give others full paid access to the platform, like an admin setting. It would also be good to be able to have separate teams under the same paying package.
Miro has been great with integrations in that there is seemingly compatibility with many different platforms, but they are often a little hard to work with/buggy. On Microsoft Teams, in general, it works well, although the board embedding during a call asks you to log in each time which is quite annoying. It would be good to have integrations with Adobe other than XD. monday.com's plugin also asks you to sign in when adding a board to an item, but then the sign-in button doesn't work on the app, only on the web app.
The whiteboard functionality on Miro is great; it does really have so many options to express yourself and to work collaboratively. It enabled our team to work together in a way that is similar to how we used to work when we were all in a room together; at times, it is even better. When we do meet in person, the function that allows physical sticky notes to be digitalized saves us hours of time!

We were using Milanote previously at it worked well when we were in the office as we used Milanote mostly for mood board/inspiration/idea collation. Miro really stood out with its real-time collaboration features, especially its integration with Microsoft Teams, where people can be on a call together and collaborate at the same time. FigJam seemed like it had more similar features to Miro, but as our company uses Adobe instead of Figma, we thought it made more sense to go with Miro.
I have recommended and will continue to recommend Miro to colleagues, especially within the creative sector. It is such a great tool to share ideas/artwork/outlines and overall collaborate digitally. It brings teams together in a way that seemed impossible unless you were face-to-face. Even when working individually, it can work as your digital library/desk/whiteboard for each project.
