Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Primarily use Miro for planning exercises including PI planning, value stream roadmapping, sprint team retrospectives, team topology and tech stack mapping/point of truth.

We also use for product discovery, quality assurance wireframing, team contracts and general collaborative workshopping.

Pros

  • Real-time team collaboration
  • Faciliation tools (private mode, timer, voting)
  • Colourful and visually appealing work spaces and templates

Cons

  • Dependencies tool - only shows dependencies lines between Jira tickets when the Dependencies app is open. As the app takes up 1/4 of the screen when open, this feels like a waste of screen space.
  • Planner App - is very slow to load and update.
  • Jira cards - don't currently clearly/nicely show the Epic/Parent each ticket belongs to on the card. Making it hard to plan/track when all tickets related to an Epic/Parent are going to be delivered
  • Jira cards - Unsure what the point/function of the square with three horizontal lines in the Jira card is for? When I click on it, nothing happens. Yet its default to appear in all Jira cards. Feels like wasted space..
  • Miro provides an easy to use, real-time collaboration tool which allows more effective virtual meetings/workshops, enhancing the shift to flexible/wfh work environments
Setting up the integration with other apps appears to be quite simple - havent' had an issue with anything we've integrated with soo far.

Once you begin using it, Miro feels a lot more intuitive to use. The templates and default shapes/colouring makes things visually appealing and easy to navigate.

Miro is a great tool for many real-time collaborative events and workshops, such as PI Planning, Sprint team Retrospectives, product/ feature kick offs, general workshops, Hackathons.

It is also great to use as a living documentation tool for purposes such as working agreements/team contracts, source of truth for team topologies, tech stacks etc.
