Overall Satisfaction with Miro

We use Miro for collaborating during the ideation and brainstorming phases for both UX and developer issues. It's also used frequently by our Product Owner to illustrate the broader picture of priorities and issues. I also use it to create wireframes with Miro's built-in feature.

Pros

  • Wireframing templates.
  • Real-time collaboration from multiple users on a board.
  • Great for compiling ideas and research visually.

Cons

  • Improvement of the Miro desktop app since it loads extremely slow.
  • Add more wireframing components in the library.
  • Add a real-time way to chat similar to Figma, where I press '/' to chat with others on the file.
  • Aligns the members more within the scrum team regarding product roadmaps.
  • Acts as the master board for everyone to reference since we work globally with different time zones.
  • Easier to adjust schedules for certain issues that set back a department within the projected roadmap.
I mostly use Miro on the browser, but I initially wanted to use the desktop application for it. I have multiple tabs open every day for work on my browser, which adds to a lot that I need to keep track of consistently open and close to check which tab is which, especially when I have multiple Miro boards open on different tabs. The desktop app is not as fast as the browser version, and I was annoyed that I went back to the browser instead, since there are no problems there.
From a UX design and visual background, I appreciate templates that offer features like cards and tables, which help me visualize what to organize more effectively. I like the wireframing components since they reduce the time I need to spend in Figma, as the building blocks are already created in Miro. Presenting the wireframes or low-fidelity designs also helps me show my progress to other team members.
Yes, because I used to use Figma's slides of FigJam for the same reasons I use Miro now. I thought it would be easier before, since I use Figma for designing and creating high-fidelity versions. However, since Miro is friendly even to non-designers, it's more convenient to use it instead for collaboration with other members who don't know how to navigate through Figma.
My experience is that I've used Trello similar to Jira and Confluence. It's more for task organizations and resourcing. For draw.io, I've used it for visual representations of flowcharts and diagrams. Finally, for Miro, I use it for both purposes and for other design tasks that I can't accomplish on the other two platforms during real-time collaboration.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Yes

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

Some scenarios where Miro is well-suited include brainstorming with fellow UX designers and compiling bugs from a developer's perspective for other members who are not developers to easily understand. For where it is less appropriate, I have not encountered any yet, as I can do most compiling, roadmapping, and ideation using Miro.
