Overall Satisfaction with Miro
During my time in school and industry, nearly every project received it's own Miro page. The main need being a collaborative workspace to plan projects, document data, and share ideas. Similarly, this would carry into my industry experience where we'd use Miro for product and space design. Some issues did relate to the sensitivity of information we didn't want in the cloud.
- Bring in templates for use. Quick and easy exploration + drag in.
- Creation of frames, text, and stickies. These are the main tools my team utilizes for data analysis. (We prototype else where)
- Showing where teammates are and what they are looking at or working on.
- Color palette is buried and difficult to use. Tends to lead me away from prototyping in Miro.
- Load times of boards can take a while.
- Security with sensitive information.
- Add people to a workspace/team can be confusing and lead to people creating things where they shouldn't.
- How might we incorporate more emerging tech?
- Improved collaboration!!
- Time saved affinity diagramming!!
- Easy for digital documentation!!
Absolutely! We work from all over and have people working on the same project from different parts of the work. This has personally impacted me and been key for my success. I will likely have the opportunity to work from home 2 days a week thanks to this online collaboration.
Many of these tools have their own use case. I typically turn to Miro for the ease of sharing information (competes with Google Drive and Box), the project planning (Drive/Box/Trello), the visual storytelling (competes with Figma, Illustrator), and data analysis (competes with Dovetail, Figma). Depending on the need, I typically have multiple of these for a given project.
