Overall Satisfaction with Miro

I am an Industrial Designer - I use Miro to remotely share visuals with my teammates. We organize timelines, create inspiration boards, create sketch brainstorms, and general use Miro as a "War Room" for all visual content related to a specific project. Sometimes we use Miro for specific tasks like Workshops with external teams, but typically we use it to gather everything visually-related to a project in one place.
  • Its the only tool that my organization permits (that does what it needs to do)
  • Somewhat-simple interface
  • Infinite "space"
  • AI - "delete background" tools work well for sketch uploads
  • Sticky notes
  • Video formats not supported
  • Multi-uploads not supported
  • Sketching directly in Miro is horrible (ie "Pen" tools are basically useless). Look to Procreate for a better experience
  • Connection lines default to snap to image - very annoying!
  • Zoom/ Pan hotkeys could be more obvious (for novice users)
  • Allowed us to have remote brainstorms with entire team.
  • Save $$$ on Project kick-off workshops. We used to do those in-person, with multi-national teams. Moving to remote in a post-Covid landscape has saved the company tons of money.
  • There is simply no other tool that we can use that does remotely the same thing.
Not sure I know what implementation means? It was a bit confusing that two different "Teams" were created when the business got an enterprise account. I sometimes have a hard time remembering how to find a board I'm looking for. I wish the search bar would pull content (text) from the board, if there were no results with that title.
I do not typically integrate Miro to other products. Sometimes I export boards to PDF? Which is fairly straightforward.
Already mentioned - allows our design team on the East Coast to have brainstorms bi-weekly with the West Coast design team. It allows us to remotely collaborate on kick-off workshops across the world.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Miro's feature set?

Yes

Did Miro live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Miro go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

Best suited - Brainstorms, image gathering, sketch-gathering. Exercises within design teams. Please support MP4/ Video! We create our own custom templates for workshops. Some basic "shape building" tools like Adobe Illustrator would make it more functional as a "creation" platform.

Not well Suited - Manually creating timelines. Grouping, aligning and moving objects feels clunky. Also not well suited for scenarios when sharing many LARGE images - it tends to slow down my entire computer when I open a Miro with too much content.
