THE collaboration tool for cross functional teams
Overall Satisfaction with Miro
As a Staff Product Designer, I leverage Miro as our central collaborative design and strategy platform across multiple facets of our organization. In our design process, we utilize it extensively for facilitating cross-functional workshops, real-time collaborative ideation, and documenting user flows and journey maps. We conduct affinity mapping for qualitative data analysis and present insights to stakeholders. Beyond project work, Miro plays a crucial role in team development through structured mentorship programs, design critiques, and knowledge sharing sessions. The platform's collaborative nature has been particularly valuable in maintaining team alignment and efficiency in our survey feedback optimization initiatives, enabling us to better understand and respond to user needs while fostering a culture of continuous improvement and learning.
Pros
- Miro is a key tool for collaboration, whether it’s a brainstorming session or a project kickoff
- Miro is fast, allowing you to create boards in as little as 10 minutes, which speeds up the product and design process.
Cons
- Accessing previously created Miro boards can be challenging.
- Losing network access is frustrating, especially when it halts progress on work.
- Helped to improve usability score
- Reduced project completion time
- Increased enginners' satisfaction
We use Miro daily across departments. It is the primary tool for cross-functional teams that truly want to work together. From major kick-offs to mentoring, we have used Miro to accelerate processes, improve alignment, and upskill our teams with training workshops. Recently, I mentored designers into how to use Lysna for unmoderated user testing and I created a Miro for this purpose. I also created another workshop for some engineering whereas I created a game to differentiate the roles and responsibilities of researchers, designers and product managers.
Miro is better for collaboration in cross functional teams. Engineers, Product Managers, Marketing and Sales feel more confortable than using other tools such as FigJam which are more focused on designers. The speed is superior to other tools such as Google Jamboard or Mural. The way you can engage the team using Miro is higher and the core functionalities it provides are not available in other tools.
