Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Miro as a collaboration tool, to whiteboard and to run workshops and meetings. It's also a great tool to sort your thoughts, store notes and feedback from interviews and other research notes

Pros and Cons

Collaboration - doesn't need other teams to create an account
Easy to navigate for new users
Love the colours and boxes and shapes available - more visually appealing than Mural

It's not as user friendly for left handed users - My boss is left handed so now we have migrated a lot of our work to Mural for that very reason she has a hard time using Miro
Organization is easier on Mural with rooms and subfolders
templates are easier to source and use on Mural

Return on Investment

improved collaboration
project visibility
Great Brainstorming tool with teams/self

Collaboration

We are mostly a remote working team across Canada and we can't even feel that we are working in different areas. It's allowed us to create beautiful spaces to work together.

Alternatives Considered

Mural

Both products are similar but have certain elements that are different visually and in terms of the feel and flow. There are minor differences and it comes down to user preferences.
