A rapid way to visualize your thinking and share it with others

I use Miro in a wide range of use cases, here are the top three most common:
Planning — We use Miro to quickly map out roadmaps or overarching timelines for projects, to create a common understanding of a project.
Qualitative analysis — When we work in projects that involve some kind of qualitative analysis, we use Miro to capture, sort and arrange insights. We often involve our clients in this task, and invite them to the Miro board.
Online and hybrid workshops — During the pandemic we developed new ways of running workshops online, using Miro. As we now have returned to crowded conference rooms again, we have found that Miro is still an effective tool in a lot of workshop activities.

The feature that have impacted my day-to-day work the most is the basic tools for drawing and organizing shapes. Miro has managed to strike an almost perfect balance between simplicity of use and flexibility in the tools. The well balanced selection of tools and adjustments are just enough to be able to quickly visualize my thoughts.

It's the small details that makes it easy to use, like the very fast and intelligent aligning of objects.

Not really, I still prefer to write my design briefs or project plans in Word, create slides in Keynote and PowerPoint and I still manage qualitative insights and other relational data in Airtable or Excel.

The only area where I might consider using Miro instead of a niche app would be in agile projects, since the Kanban view and cards seem quite well implemented.
