Overall Satisfaction with Miro

We use Miro across different functional teams, but within design teams, we use it to coordinate projects in the front-end ideation that need to be “living,” where the workflow is highly collaborative across different teams. We also use Miro to host design standards and complicated diagrams that would be impossible with traditional software tools available, such as PowerPoint, Adobe Illustrator, etc.

Pros

  • Ability to present in presentation modes.
  • Recompose pages in an uploaded document, e.g., PDF or PowerPoint.
  • Loads large boards relatively fast - compared to MS Whiteboard.

Cons

  • The pen feature could be modernized to map to the eraser feature on the digital stylus - we use the pen feature to annotate a lot.
  • Maybe there are new ways to help organize boards; I hear complaints that things get hard to find over time as boards build up.
  • It would be good if there was AI integration to understand the context and summarize boards.
  • Export boards directly to PowerPoint.
  • The positive impact on time is reduced when managing multiple file formats - everything is in one place.
  • Reduced time in searching Microsoft share points for relevant content.
  • Time saved for designers to brainstorm across locations without sending physical boards.
We integrate Miro into MS teams - it works well.
We have yet to use that feature extensively.
We also tried MS Whiteboard, but it felt more like beta software and crashed often or could not handle large amounts of content.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Miro's feature set?

Yes

Did Miro live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Miro go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

Well suited for the semi-structured idea forming or concept phase of projects. It is less appropriate to create formalized projects to share across many functional groups, especially ones that don’t have a Miro license or understanding of it.
