Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Communication and collaboration with internal and external stakeholders. Capturing interviews, conducting design reviews, managing project status through kanban boards, storyboarding narratives, conducting brainstorms and many other design activities. It’s become an essential tool and platform for working together virtually on complex design projects.

Pros

  • collaboration with virtual team members on creative challenges
  • collecting/capturing input on design reviews
  • project and workflow mapping
  • AI summary tools to synthesize inputs

Cons

  • navigation/wayfinding of board histories ('what was that board called?' where did i see that?)
  • copy/pasting content in shapes vs frames and moving around is sometimes a hassle
  • related to above point, easily locking/layering content to move vs not move when working with templates or frames can be a hassle
  • as a design function, this is probably the most critical tool we have (post covid) outside of MS Office suite. Couldn't live without it.
  • Greatly improved remote collaboration with teams, improved efficiencies
  • Hassles do come up when trying to work with people who DONT have Miro licenses/access (inside and outside our company)
Works pretty well with Teams, Box, a couple others we use, but due to some licensing issues we sometimes run into challenges.
Absolutely essential tool for our work as global teams. As stated earlier, i couldn't live without it at this point, and dont know how I survived before we had it (started in 2020 during Covid lockdowns). Enable work from home, working asynchronously, virtual "real time" collaborations, and new AI features are pretty cool.
Miro stacks up well. I'm not a heavy Figma user, but the integrations there (between Figma and FigJam) are pretty impressive - they're definitely coming after you... Mural is OK, but i think i'm just more used to Miro at this point.

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

It's great for Collaborating with remote colleagues and holding virtual creative sessions or brainstorm sessions. Its also good to digitally layout a wide range of assets and do a visual survey and review to find themes, create design systems and so on. Great tool for gathering input from a wide variety of stakeholders, creating engagement. Good for project planning tasks (laying out work plans) and for time-based artifact creation like storyboards, customer journeys, workflows, etc.
