Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Collaborative whiteboard; meeting notes; to-do lists; brainstorming; prototype development; User testing (formative and summative)
  • loads fast
  • flexible for nearly any need
  • supports the way I think (non-linear)
  • collaborative work space - can support independent and collective work
  • search within boards (make this included with standard subscription)
  • some boards get heavy with thousands of elements - put some more horsepower behind those boards
  • maybe have a 'select these elements and export them to a 'child' board' to free up space
  • allow for easier navigation between boards that are linked
  • have a 'meta' organizer - where you could create a map of boards that are not just a linear list
  • maybe a replay board - where you watch someone else build a board at 10 or 20x speed
  • we can describe systems that are interconnected and/or highly coupled visually to non-visual thinkers
  • we can create simple and intuitive experiences (meaning ppl know how to use them with no or minimal training) to capture data from non-designers
  • facilitates storytelling
  • allows us to document experiences visually -
I use Miro for work and in my personal life - it's just so useful.

My only wish is that it would support searching - and visual searching at that...
we collaborate from remote locations daily. it is seamless for helping to understand and communicate around artifacts and not depend on verbal descriptions of intended outcomes.
they're playing catchup

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

I use Miro everyday - it's so flexible and suited to meet most - if not all of my needs.

However

I am a non-linear thinker - and those that are linear thinkers tend to use Jira/Confluence/excel/word/etc to manage their work... (yuck)

maybe an ETL tool that allows a linear thinker to translate an excel spreadsheet into a mind map and vice versa would be helpful.

Also, exporting a bunch of post-it notes into a spreadsheet did not yield a useful result - so maybe when a user clicks 'export' a dialog asks for questions that allows a user to express/describe their intended outcome...
