Overall Satisfaction with Miro

  • Organizing meetings
  • Planning, estimating, and describing bugs and features
  • Active collaboration among the team members to share ideas
The problem that we are trying to solve is basically, "How can we enable active collaboration in an online meeting?". In real life, it is much easier as there are whiteboards to use, but in an online meeting, we need a shared space where everyone can easily participate and contribute.
  • Add, remove, edit items on screen. Especially sticky nodes
  • Integrate new features (timer, music, emojis etc.)
  • Drag and drop, there is still issue with accidental dragging of items
  • Undo/Redo something when there are multiple people changing one item
  • Adding a lock feature to specific items so that no one can change them without you allowing them
  • Easy collaboration within online meetings
  • Shorter meeting times during planning sessions with big number of participants
The nice smooth UI allows multiple people to add and remove ideas simultaneously. This makes collaboration much easier and faster. Although, I do have to mention that sometimes the UI seems too complicated. Icons are not descriptive enough, and you need to hover over an element till you see text about what the icon is.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Miro's feature set?

Yes

Did Miro live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Miro go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

We tried Microsoft and Google Board. The advantage of those items are that they have better integration with other products that we use (ex: Teams). But Miro has an advantage in feature set and pricing, so we decided on Miro.
Miro was very well suited during covid and lockdown time. Everyone was using Teams or Zoom for their meetings, so there was a lack of a shared space where everyone could participate and see things. But Miro's disadvantage is when it comes to offline and online meetings. Now, companies are moving towards a more hybrid structure, meaning there might be many people in one meeting room sharing a screen. So The focus should be maybe on having a mobile app where everyone can quickly join without registration and change things.

Using Miro

It's annoying that we have to switch betting teams and miro in meetings
