Overall Satisfaction with Miro

I use Miro first and foremost to get ideas out of my head and on to the canvas. It helps me visualize and work through ideas then better communicate those ideas to my teammates. I mainly use the diagramming functions but also occasionally run workshops for various user experience design projects.

Pros

  • Ideation
  • Brainstorming
  • Diagramming

Cons

  • More guided diagramming
  • Sometimes the toolbar randomly disappears
  • Image drag and drop from Google search
  • Improved productivity
  • Enhanced ideation
  • More effective teamwork
  • Expedited design process
Miro has greatly enhanced our ability to collaborate remotely and at times asynchronously. It speeds up the discovery and ideation process and gives us a common place to access our thinking as the project evolves. A blank canvas in more robust design software can be intimidating , but with Miro it represents limitless possibility and so it's easy to get started.
Miro is much easier to use and get started with than Figma. You don't have to be technically proficient with the product to make use of it and it's far easier to manipulate. Figma is great for when it's time to design but Miro helps you get there in the first place.

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?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

Miro is great for creating diagrams, brainstorming, and facilitating workshops as well as tracking work and overall proving a common sandbox to communicate ideas and play around with inspiration. It is not so good for designing anything more than extremely lo-fi prototypes, for that you would need something a bit more powerful but it's still great for collaborating in general.
