Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Some teams use it more than others, as it is not a required tool for most teams to function. Miro is used for brainstorming, housing retrospective notes (for example, start/stop/continues), to keep track of personal development, and to structure team huddle/meeting dynamics. Personally, I use Miro to improve and keep team meetings on task and more structured, to organize notes regarding personal career development, and to map out various aspects of any particular project I am working on. It's my favorite tool we have at my job.
  • Collaboration across multiple people in a meeting
  • Flexibility/Customization to be used in the best way for any particular user
  • Sticky notes are simple, yet effective
  • Images saved as JFIF cannot be uploaded to Miro because Miro does not accept JFIF format, which is frustrating because JFIF is a type of JPEG image
  • Stickers and emojis are limited
  • When selecting multiple objects, instead of filtering by object *type* (image, shape, sticky note, connection line), it would be helpful if Miro could also have the option to instead break them down into individual objects. (For example, if I select 3 shapes and an image, sometimes I want the option to select one very specific shape instead of all the shapes at once).
  • I am not in an admin/leadership role so I do not know how Miro has impacted our ROI, but I can confirm we have been able to eliminate waste and be really intentional about our meetings when using Miro as a tool
Miro really does help with brainstorming and visualizing how projects are being completed. Miro was more useful before we moved to project management in Jira (which is now the platform my company uses to manage projects). I know Miro can be integrated with Jira, but we have not yet implemented that feature. I've advocated for this feature in the past, but have not been successful.
My company standardizes Jira, not Miro, unfortunately.

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

Miro is best for brainstorming, hosting start/stop/continues with the whole team, keeping track of to-do lists, managing personal development, and serving as a virtual "message board" or "bulletin board" (I like encouraging my teams to add personal photos, inspiration, and personalization to their "section" of the team board so it can take the place of desk personalization when we used to be in office).
