Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Miro for a vast number of things, ranging from just a simple brainstorming white board to helping us manage large projects and events. This was absolutely essential during the pandemic and we continue to use it for just about every single product launch, process improvement, sustaining projects, and kaizens.

Pros and Cons

Collaboration
Single source of truth
Brainstorming

Default text size can sometimes be way too small
New users are often easily confused by the interface
Would love for it to be easier to copy and paste between boards

Return on Investment

Don't have hard numbers, but productivity is far increased
Always good to have a reference we can go back to at any time and not have to dig around for it in a random file or server
Sometimes challenging to ensure everyone has the same permissions, which can slow things down in a group scenario

Collaboration

The whiteboard is the central part of Miro that we use the most and it's pretty much a requirement now for any and all projects.

Likelihood to Recommend

Miro has been great to us and it really excels at allowing for cross-collaboration, especially with remote workers. Being able to see in real-time what everyone is doing makes it feel like we're all there in the same room, which really helps make sure we're productive and efficient. It's really great for sharing ideas, but not always the best for having something offline that can be exported or shared in person.
