Overall Satisfaction with Miro
Miro has become a very important tool for my daily work since the beginning of the pandemic. We use Miro for collaboration on literally anything. The main use case for me is, however, working on innovation projects in early phases: structuring research, ideating with the team, and presenting results to stakeholders. We also use Miro for some organized topics, like team meetings, etc.
- Design Thinking Sprints: creating innovative ideas in a team in a structured creative process.
- Project work: daily project work on innovation projects in early phases.
- Collecting & sharing team organizational information.
- Sometimes miro gets really slow, especially if I have uploaded some pdf files. Maybe it is possible to reduce the size of the uploaded pdf.
- A delayed voting function would be great.
- Sometimes our boards get really huge and difficult to navigate. Some smart possibility to structure them better would be nice.
- For surely improved productivity: I don't have to clean and document Post-it walls anymore.
- Flexibility: we can work on a project from anywhere. It saves a lot of time because not everyone has to be in the office.
- I save a lot of time because I can present work in progress on Miro and don't have to create PowerPoints each time I need to share my project progress.
It was life-changing to have Miro during the pandemic. I cannot imagine our work without it. Now with Miro, we don't have to be in the same location to work together on a project. Business travel also reduced because of the new remote working options, and Miro has definitely contributed a lot to that.

Would you buy Miro again?
Yes
MURAL was quite comparable, and I actually liked the handling more (back in 2020), but it was nothing crucial, I just got used to it more. However, our IT is selecting Miro, and I am very happy with it. OneNote didn't work at all as a collaboration tool because it misses the flexibility of Miro or MURAL, and the possibilities are just not comparable.
