Miro has been widely employed for various purposes, including brainstorming and facilitating team discussions.

Users have harnessed its GenAI features for creating diagrams, compiling meeting notes, and conducting design tasks such as mapping user flows and journeys. Miro also serves as a crucial tool for customer research activities, from initial planning and note-taking to the final synthesis. Moreover, it caters to virtual collaboration needs by supporting design reviews, workshops with external customers, and fostering knowledge sharing within design teams.

Difficulty in Board Organization: Some users express confusion when organizing boards by department, struggling with determining the correct placement for new boards. This lack of clarity disrupts workflow efficiency and makes it challenging to maintain an organized workspace.

I use Miro for retros where the squad holds a retro workshop and we use Miro to communicate, especially if some of us are attending the retro remotely, I also use it for interview debriefing, after I'm done with a user interview or a testing session, I use a jpg debrief card in Miro to state the facts, insights and recommendations based on the interview. I also use it in planning projects, and working with colleagues on different projects and workshops.

We have used Miro at our company. It addresses the problem we had in brainstorming ideas, discussing architecture problems, and reviewing our projects. Miro has a really amazing interface, and we have created so many ideas. It has also helped our team raise productivity. Overall, we are happy with it when we are in a collaborative setting.

I see four main scenarios:
- Facilitation. We do retros, discuss plans to bring teams together, brainstorm solutions to product problems.
- Knowledge base. Some things are easier to present in visual form. This can be a technical diagram or a CJM of a product.
- Product work. It is convenient for me as a product manager to write down the main thoughts of the interview in cards.
- Also, I have already mentioned CJM. In some cases we use the JTBD framework, so visualisation is also done in Miro board- Also, the training team actively uses boards for internal workshops.

Use it to design and execute strategic workshops, interact with customers as a consultant to drive delivery towards outcomes using agile methodologies. Create central visualization of artifacts to drive decisions and shared understanding of concepts for effective delivery. Use it to also ideate solutions after agreeing on the problem we wish to solve. Use many of the templates for workshop practices like those from the Open Practice Library site.

We use Miro for customer journey mapping. As we work with seven different company verticals, from construction to aviation to natural products, we are often creating stakeholder workshops to understand the customer pain points within each industry. Miro also serves as a great collaboration tool when connecting with UX researchers. As for our scope, we use Miro for the ideation of all product ideas we explore across our team of 18.

I use Miro for a wide variety of tasks: creating collaborative boards for brainstorming ideas, performing in-depth problem solving, creating interactive 1:1 boards to track objective progress with my team members, prototyping visual management tools, and creating a virtual whiteboard to aggregate ideas for both local and remote workers.

We use Miro to map out customer journeys, facilitate workshops or just to organize ideas and data collected during research. It is also useful for taking notes creating presentations and for cooperative tasks within the team. It is also a useful tool to visualize processes and data to present ideas to other tams and people within the organization,

I use Miro to "white board" given our organization is over 75% remote. We use the sticky notes to collaborate and cluster to prioritize and find patterns and big themes. We also use Miro to roadmap to align stakeholders and manage expectations. We use Miro to tell the story about digital development and ground our projects and outcomes using the vast variety of pre-made templates and config as we go.

We have recently used Miro to work collaboratively with remote resources to identify process flows and create a more efficient process. It offers easy access and the ability to make quick changes. Many options and templates are available, and I look forward to exploring new functionality with each new project.

In my organization, we currently use Miro as a Scrum tool in order to support our team as backlog management. Our approach in Miro is based on the Scrum method, where we create our tasks mapping week+1, week+2 and daily activities that we're seeing for each project. During our daily meetings we define our tasks into three others columns, to do, doing and done, focusing in map, support and finish our tasks.

We started an agile transformation last year and used Miro for helping communicate and collaborate on the 4 agile product teams we were standing up. We used it for org charts, product charters, ways of working and architecture designing. We also used it for documenting current process flows within the organization and helped inspire ways we could improve those processes.

I use Miro to display logic models, theories of change, stakeholder mapping, organizing data, conceptual models and storytelling. I use these tools to relay/disseminate information to colleagues and supervisors in a creative/non-traditional way that captures ideas visually. I use it to organize my thoughts on a particular task, including complex relationships. ITT is also used to drive program strategy and communicate data from our global health project.

Map out strategy; design customer experiences for our customer support chatbot; team planning; roadmap creation. The need is to have a collaboration tool where our product management team, usually 5-20 people, come together online (we're all in different locations) and do a creative exercise. In these exercises, whether it's to comment on a design or brainstorm on a feature map, there's a need to gather input from multiple participants and identify themes/priorities/ etc. What makes Miro effective is the ability to use colorful stickies, beautiful templates, stickers, and other tools to make the process easy to follow and inviting to participate. Moreover, there's no limit due to a "page size" -- the work can keep flowing and stay organized.

We use Miro as a huddle board to convey messages and to share processes on activities we are working on. It helps with ideation sessions when planning for the pipeline work, understanding the team's status at a glance, and provides great transparency across the teams. It's used on a daily and weekly basis based on the objectives we're working on.

We use Miro for a few different purposes. I use Miro as a canvas for brainstorming. I collect client and market data and synthesize it for sharing with my development team. The ad hoc method of capturing the data allows me to quickly capture 'snippets' of data that I can correlate later. As a Product Development Organization, we use it for quarterly team planning. We integrate with Jira, so all teams have a view of the work upcoming in the quarter. That allows us to identify dependencies better.

As a student, I use Miro mainly for class assessments, group projects, etc. The scope of my use case is quite simple. As a design student, I use it mostly as a place for early idea generation with a team and some personal dump of my own. Being uni students, where maintaining an appendix is mandatory as documentation of all our work, we mainly use it to place our organized research data and analysis and share it as a link to showcase to our tutors our work behind our final product.

I work as a customer journey expert for a B2C cybersecurity company. We use the Miro board to visualize maps, maps, key findings, and business opportunities. I collect data from different departments (design, e-commerce, research, data insights) and collect them on one board, where I present it to various stakeholders, including management.

I use it for group or pair work when doing school project work. It helps provide a platform for different users to come together to do ideation and mapping. I use it mainly for affinity mapping online and brainstorming sessions with group mates. It is rather convenient and easy to get on.

I use Miro to collaborate with my peers in a university context. It allows me to set up a shared workspace quickly and easily and see my peers' actions and changes in real-time. I use Miro primarily for simple note-taking, model-making (UML), and collating my group's work for use in projects.

I actively use Miro in my university course, as we are required to use it for group activities. It helps us more easily collaborate with many people during class activities. I also use Miro outside of education for mood boards, flowcharts, kanban, and personal projects.
