Overall Satisfaction with Miro

I use Miro in different ways, from long term planning, short term planning, ideation and even design sessions. It's mostly used whenever collaboration is required, and visual assets are involved.
It's also often used to process data, such as clustering or any other process typically done with "post-its". It has been supporting, for instance, UX activities for several years now.

Pros

  • Visual brainstorming
  • Long term planning (e.g. roadmaps)
  • Quick canvas for sketching and discussing
  • Documenting visual assets

Cons

  • Limited customisation, could have been improved
  • Pasting URLs isn't a consistent experience
  • Integration with more tools and processes
  • Unlocked remote work collaboration scenarios
  • Make teams planning sessions more agile
  • Created a common visual collaborative standard inside the company
Miro has been critical to support remote collaboration, because it enables remote teams, collaborating from different to have a visual collaboration space, where everyone can contribute. More often than not, Miro boards are deliverables used as part of initiatives, or brainstorming for new initiatives, especially in the organisation Product area.
Miro presents a much lighter experience, with less clutter, lower learning curve, which when compared with other tools, makes it easy for different roles. E.g. UX might be more familiar with Figma, or Engineering with draw.io, but everyone is familiar with Miro, so it's easy for everyone to have a common ground.

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?

Yes

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

All visual related activities, where collaboration is required. It's easy to introduce to different stakeholders, regardless their background (IT, business, etc), both for contributing or just consuming.
If something more formal is required, such as processing large amounts of data, other tools/formats might be better suited (e.g. sheets).
