Overall Satisfaction with Miro

I use it as a digital whiteboard to visually work through video game design problems. Creating mood boards to get inspired for a new character design, mocking up what a UI screen could look like, specifying how designers should be able to interface with a given system, and general project planning. It is typically most useful at the earlier brainstorming stages, before being condensed into a more organized home for information.

Pros

  • Acting as a digital whiteboard
  • Facilitating collaborative brainstorms
  • Planning project milestones

Cons

  • Missing support for dragging in .webp files
  • Images cannot be flipped
  • Frames are finnicky to manage
  • More collaborative brainstorming
  • Clearer plans for a project's future
  • Faster alignment and problem solving
Miro has made collaborative brainstorming much more accessible despite all of our workers being fully work from home. We are able to brainstorm, plan, and problem solve in a much more interactive way than we would be able to had we not had access to the software and its features.

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

It is useful when:
* Collaboratively brainstorming a new character or environment
* Planning a future chunk of work
* Creating a mood board for an aesthetic
* Early ideation
* Organizing large amounts of information in a highly visual way

It is less appropriate when:
* Trying to create sustainable documentation for others to access
