Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Miro as a white boarding tool. It is great tool for online collaboration during brainstorming session. I rely on Miro for my online training courses. I use it to create engaging content. It's a great way to engage with delegates. I use for interactive online activities as part of the training course. Miro boards act as a good reference resources for delegates after the course.

Pros and Cons

Pros

User friendly and intuitive interface
Ability to create and share variety of content
Templates to get started very quickly and easily
Tools for group activities, such as timer, voting, hiding content etc.

Cons

Export functionality - Guidance on the right way to create boards to allow for easy exporting of all content
Easier search process to find the most suitable template
Create a new template based on a user's needs so instead of user selecting from a set of templates, the user describes what they want to do and a suitable template is either suggested or a customised template is created
Ability to migrate from one template to another without having to copy paste content or recreate from scratch

Return on Investment

Improved delegate experience in training sessions
Reduce time in online meetings requiring interaction
Quicker decision making

Collaboration

Miro has made a massive difference. We have used it to create and main product roadmaps. We have also used it for user story mapping for large projects.

Alternatives Considered

Miro is well suited for online training courses. Activities can be created in advance with some section hidden and only make visible when required. Delegates can interact with the content and with other. Miro is also well suited for group activities such as workshops and meeting that require sharing of content.
