Overall Satisfaction with Miro

We use Miro for all types of brainstorming, collaborative note taking, Kanban & work organization, even systems architecture, amongst distributed teams. Miro provides us real-time interactivity, and a visual canvas to capture and organize complex ideas. Brainstorming sessions work great with timers and voting, and links directly to Jira connect the decisionmaking to the work outcomes.
  • Collaborative note taking
  • complex diagramming
  • Voting and sorting with groups
  • visually appealing explanations.
  • Not all shapes behave the same or handle things like text size the same
  • auto-spacing is inconsistent horizontally and vertically with sticky notes. It'd be nice to be able to have everything align to a grid automatically.
  • Data Import - would be cool to import table data into hierarchies, like in Visio.
  • sharing and user management is a little tricky, especially w/ groups of people who are some SSO, some in Teams, some visitors. SSO makes it hard to share with a non-licensed user in the same organization.
  • better alignment between teams
  • Faster collaboration on roadmaps and priorities
  • greater and more measurable consensus building within larger groups.
Our organization has multiple groups within 1 domain, some used SSO some did not... makes it hard to collaborate within the organization. I wasn't involved in that implementation.
It would be even better if round-trips or embeds were possible. I'd like to make a table in Miro, link it to excel, and have it update back. I'd like to embed a live diagram in a powerpoint or Confluence page more easily and have it sty up-to-date in the embedded location.
we use it extensively to collaborate on new products. Our product team is distributed across multiple timezones and it's one of the ways we can stay in sync with projects where we have many ideas, multiple contributors, and need to impose order and prioritization. It's simpler than more specialized tools to implement and get value.
Miro is easier to use than Mural, faster and more flexible than FigJam and way more capable than draw.io

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?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

Any time I have someone conducting brainstorming or investigative meetings online, I recommend they use Miro. When data is more refined, I usually recommend switching to Excel and then bringing back finished tables if appropriate.
