Overall Satisfaction with Miro

We use Miro for brainstorming, high-level project planning, and running fun retrospectives. It works well with the collaboration aspect, having everyone work together at the same time. There are many pre-made templates available on Miro for the different usage styles, and that makes it quite easy to get started on a new session or when looking for ideas.
  • Collaboration between many team members
  • Allowing for voting on next talking points
  • Linking items together and displaying the connectors
  • Premium features include a simple timer that should be part of standard offering
  • Incorrect managing of teams could lead to accidentally large bills
  • Tracking of changes by users could have more detail
  • Templates have introduced fun retrospectives
  • The sign-up process has prevented some people for following through
  • View past iterations on the same board reduced time spent collating from different data sources
As mentioned before, it has created a way for our remote teams to collaboarate together. We often share the board on a Teams call to track previous actions points and we also have plans to start tracking small wins. This will help improve team cohesion and makes it easier to quickly whip up a screen and start collaborating during during a meeting.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

No

Are you happy with Miro's feature set?

Yes

Did Miro live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Miro go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Miro again?

No

There are many other tools available, but using Miro provides a low entry barrier. People can collaborate without needing to create and account and boards can ebe locked by the owner to prevent accidental changes. The UI is easy to follow after a quick onboarding and the artifacts render nicely for screenshotting on a presentation.
