Overall Satisfaction with Miro

We use Miro for product, engineering, and design brainstorming and for product planning and roadmapping. There are not a lot of great roadmapping tools out there, and Miro affords the best level of customizability in an easy-to-use manner. Miro also makes it superbly easy to share whiteboards with other users across the organization.

Pros

  • The ability to customize objects and their locations within the whiteboard
  • The ability to easily share boards or specific frames with other users
  • The ability to seamlessly collaborate with other users on the same board at the same time

Cons

  • Ability to nest objects within others (e.g. add a sticky note inside another sticky note)
  • Ability to add collapsible connection lines
  • Ability to add goals / measurable metrics to cards (that can also roll up into a parent object through a connecting line)
  • Miro improves team productivity by giving an easy-to-use space for collaboration
The collaboration capabilities of Miro are easily the biggest benefits of it. It is the most seamless tool I have ever used when it comes to being able to work alongside others on the same board. Paired with a live call, there are very few tools as powerful as Miro when it comes to the ability to collaborate. Whether it is planning for new projects, jumping in to iterate on old ones, or simply coming together to brainstorm on things not even considered a "project" yet, Miro makes it super simple to work together.
Figma is very much geared toward designers and is less of a true whiteboarding tool. While there are a lot of similarities, Miro is much easier for the standard user to get into and use.

As for Confluence whiteboards, they're very, very limited compared to Miro. The collaboration is nowhere near on the same level, and the capabilities of Miro far exceed what can be done in Confluence whitebaords.

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

Miro is perfect for brainstorming and anything where a little creativity is needed. It is one of the premier collaboration tools, and there are a lot of templates out there that can be used for just about any type of collaboration session. That said, unless you are a power user and have a good grasp of the different tools available under the hood, it sometimes can feel a little limited in the types of boards you can make based on the relatively static nature of the more basic, readily apparent, and easily accessible objects.
