Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Miro is a great tool for collaborating with colleagues located all over the world. We use it to both scopes out project visions and to conduct agile ceremonies in order to be able to improve continuously. It is a great tool for gathering insights from all the people involved in the project, especially the quieter team members who are more hesitant to share their opinion verbally. It is also great for intuitively brainstorming and visualizing your ideas.

  • User story mappings.
  • Brainstorming
  • Agile ceremonies.
  • Enabling agile teams.
  • Icebreaking activities
  • Games

Cons

  • More templates
  • video explanations of how to use templates.
  • More AI
  • Productivity
  • Offers a wide range of features that can reduce the need for other tools.
Miro is a very intuitive tool that even first time users can pick up the basics of very quickly. It is also a tool that has layers too it where advanced users can go deeper into the capabilities to further push the limits of the tool and gain more from its collaborative features and flexibility
For me the feature that has impacted my work most are the templates, these extremely useful when designing workshops either to help save time when creating them or also to help spur my own creativity. I also often use the brainstorming/ diagramming capabilities, the flexibility to be able to move, duplicate, edit or delete components individually or all together brings a great advantage over a traditional whiteboard, Adding the ai features in here as well really help to boost productivity
Miro is a fantastic collaboration tool that has completely transformed the way our remote teams work. It allows everyone to bring their ideas and opinions to the table during retrospectives and to be heard equally rather than just whoever has the loudest voice in the room. Another way Miro has transformed our ways of working is during process creation, the diagramming capabilities make it easy to build out and iterate upon ideas and share them with team members and leaders for their insight without even needing to speak to the other person.
Miro is leaps and bounds ahead of One note in terms of functionality, useability and collaboration. OneNote can be useful for taking basic notes or working on something individually but i would never use for anything visual or collaborative.

Zoom offers functionality that is similar to Miro and also offers good collaborative features, however the user experience is miles behind Miro. In my experience it was laggy and could not handle larger whiteboards, the features are also not as intuitive

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?

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?

Yes

Extremely intuitive and versatile tool for collaboration amongst teams. Works really well for retrospectives, brainstorming and process design.

The only issue i have come across whilst using miro is using it too much can take away from verbal interactions in some situations, this is important to keep in mind especially when facilitating seminars or workshops.
