Overall Satisfaction with Miro
Primarily using it for Business Planning - Whiteboarding; diagramming dataflows, etc. Only been using it for apprx 2 months and liking it very much. Got introduced to it in a training program at work, wherein we have to it mandatorily. So started exploring other uses. Also using the stickies as a personal to-do list.
Pros
- Managing/Organizing Sticky notes
- Diagramming
- The free form/infinite space for use
Cons
- Introducing it to beginners
- Ability to stay logged on from multiple devices
- App response speed on iOS can be better
- Improved my personal productivity
- Makes collaborating more efficient
- Helps articulate ideas quickly via robust diagramming features
In one word, greatly. What's limiting it is the adoption by others in the company. As more colleagues start adopting it, the impact should be more significant. Illustrating the value and training beginners are the biggest challenges. Once we can get past that, the user retention would be very high. And consequently, collaboration would become more effective and efficient.
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
Both of them are crude tools for business planning and whiteboarding. Visio's diagramming feature set maybe better for technical folks, but its an overkill for product managers. Miro's VAP is that it brings a lot of key feature sets together in one place, and then throws in personal use tools like to-do list and sticky notes.
