Overall Satisfaction with Miro

We use it to map out our organisational flows. Just recently upgraded to the business plan to have upgrades mapping features. The fact that collaborators can edit and work on flows with us live is a time saver. The added widgets and features around mapping and live collaboration is just awesome ; timelines, project management, retrospectives, etc.

Plus since covid we are really using MIRO to facilitate online or hybrid meetings. Nothing else compares for me, the app is just cleaner and better period.

Pros

  • Mapping, diagramming
  • Exporting
  • Live collaboration
  • Animation widgets

Cons

  • Timeline intelligent widget with cards. I want to be able to open a timeline item to add details and follow up on content
  • Helping users organize their boards - spaces will help in that regards i believe
  • Helping build exportable pages for official documents
  • Locking is a hassle. It would be awesome to have a full board locking feature but be able to unlock parts
  • On diagram items sometimes text is stuck under form. I would like to be able to move it
  • Improved productivity
  • Reduced project completion when collaborating with external developpers
  • Greater clarity on proceses
Really the most notable thing for us is impact on organisational memory. Months or years later we want to continue work on a big maping we had done on our internal processes, we open the MIRO and continue work instead of starting over! Game changer..

Then there is the added bonus of anyone can work at the same time, remotely or not, timezones or different schedules matter less. Even talktrack now really thins that barrier, its amazing!
Better interface, cleaner app, better options for diagraming and facilitating, easier to collaborate live. In the end I can create faster in MIRO, and end up with a better result.

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 does lots of things great like online collaboration, mapping, brainstorming, rétrospectives, agile project management. Really any time i have to plan quickly or start working on something i'll open a MIRO board.

Where MIRO is harder to use is for everyday task management, kanbans and task cards are not connected to my workspace app and its a redundancy in followup that is hard to put in place. It works well for projects where there is intensity and where we constantly go back to MIRO to brainstorm and put all our work, or projets that are one-offs. File and space management is also a challenge, there are no folders or way to organise big board content or multiple boards on same subject.
