Miro Reviews

I love working with Miro solo but it's even better with a collaborator who really commits to making the most of the features that are available. It has made me feel so much more dynamic in my communication and collaboration.

Miro limits free accounts to just three boards so it's not as easy to attract new users as I would like to because people are less willing to learn a software that they can't use much on their own without paying for a subscription.

Any product designer, UX designer, UI designer, or member of a remote design team should have a copy of Miro on hand. It's a great tool for design thinking, brainstorming, and whiteboarding. Their great templates will also assist any novice get started and hold fruitful meetings.

For freelancers on a tight budget, Miro might be prohibitively expensive. For established agencies, though, this is ideal. Even though a voting tool was recently added to the product, a wider range of interactive elements would help us better engage audiences and create better workshop experiences.

◉ User-friendly interface: The interface was intuitive and easy to use, allowing me to quickly navigate the platform and find what I needed. I was able to create my first project in just a few minutes.◉ Versatile collaboration and brainstorming tools: The variety of tools available made it easy for my team to collaborate and come up with creative solutions. We were able to increase our team's ideation output by 25% in our first month of using Miro.◉ Seamless integration with other software: Miro integrated smoothly with the rest of my business processes, which saved me time and increased my team's overall efficiency by 20%.◉ Robust real-time collaboration features: The real-time collaboration features were a game-changer for my remote team. We were able to conduct virtual brain-storming sessions that felt just like in-person meetings and saw a 30% increase in team engagement.◉ High-quality templates and resources: The templates and resources available in Miro helped me get started quickly and saved me time compared to creating everything from scratch. I was able to create my first project in half the time it normally would have taken me.

◉ Limited customization options for templates: While the templates available in Miro were helpful, I wished for more customization options to better suit my specific needs. This was a minor issue for me but could be a larger concern for others.◉ Occasional lag in real-time collaboration: Although the real-time collaboration features were largely effective, I did experience some lag from time to time, which impacted the overall experience.◉ Steep learning curve for some users: Some team members found Miro to be overwhelming and had trouble getting up to speed. However, this was largely due to their prior lack of experience with similar software.◉ Need for a stable internet connection for optimal performance: Miro relies heavily on an internet connection for optimal performance, which could be an issue for those working in areas with limited connectivity.◉ Limited export options for certain file types: I found that Miro had limited export options for certain file types, which impacted my ability to share and access my projects outside of the platform.

It helps give us a birds eye view of the projects we are working on. That allows for clients to easily understand what we are doing and give us feedback.

The ability to use colours when adding comments allows us to start associating colours with certain messages which allows one to know if there are things to be attended to with just a glance.

It tends to require a lot of CPU resources which can be an inconvenience because one tends to use it in conjunction with a design software like sketch/photoshop which also require significant CPU power.

It is fairly easy. It runs well and usually has an understanding of what we are trying to accomplish. We often communicate with our personnel and concerned parties using Miro. Additionally, the frameworks built into the software assist organise meetings more quickly. In addition to allowing you to express your creativity, the vast selection of activity templates, marker colours, custom icons, voting, comments, CMS integration, and document collaboration enables you to run workshops successfully. With the diversity of tools and plugins it supports, Miro can assist you in expressing them. It is also straightforward enough so that you won't feel overwhelmed and can concentrate on your job.

The projects' lack of organisation is what I detest the most. The search is also not optimal as there is no hierarchy, tiers, folders, etc. The administrative dashboard and user organisation in Miro have also been a problem for me. Although the programme is typically simple to use, I have encountered difficulties navigating it when working with many Miro accounts. However, after showing teams the value of whiteboarding, they frequently become more receptive to it.

Beside of the great canvas and add as much items as I want to it, the tools helps me to get an overview. This is exactly what I needed from a broad view over all items that matter to a project to all the details that made up the context.

SOme items, like the notes have its short commings. What I miss for the analysis of complex structure is a type of focus area or magnification area, where you can draw tny details, which are not needed to keep focus on the overall structure.

one of the functions which I liked the most is about simultaneous collaboration in projects, people can easily share their ideas in real-time together which makes it perfect for remote work.

the pricing for this product is higher than other competitors so if it was a little less expensive I would say it could even have more customers.

It's easy to collect and present projects.

When I put many things in a board, it gets very slow.

I love the templates. I sometimes struggle with getting started on a blank canvas and the numerous templates helped me find anything I need for different use cases.The collaboration features are also very useful and it makes remote brainstorming very smooth.

I'd love more guidance on how to get started. I know they are already providing a lot but as a non-designer, I'll take every help I can get.

i like how easy it is to use it, its very clean, and allows alot of people to be working at the same without lagging. Also the automatic saving is important so i dont have to worry about losing my progress.

I dont use the mobile version of the app because it is not optimized and is difficult to navigate.

It has all the flexibility I need to lay out my ideas, and progressively develop them. Plus, the community templates are amazingly useful and new contributions keep coming.

I am sometimes disappointed or unimpressed by the visual aesthetic aspect, but this is a very light annoyance.

It's very intuitive. It responds in a very fluid and responds in ways that it seems to know what you're trying to do.

I've used other diagramming tools for the best part of this century, like Visio, Lucid, Omni, and all of them were just so clunky and restrictive, they have very strict ways of working and are very 'enterprise' orientated, like made for The Office, and so I would use vector apps like Sketch, of Flash (before) in order to make diagrams. But then, I stumbled upon Miro, and it was like dafaq? This is the app I've been looking for, and it worked in ways that

Honestly, nothing. A few small things, but they that have been ever so slightly irksome that I fail to recall.

I found MIRO intuitive with no training necessary. You can invite collaborators effortlessly with only browser access required. This has been transformational for me during remote working.

When boards become large, the download process can be a little slow and it sometimes trips up with downloading the content that is currently in the viewer's screen. This can easily be resolved by archiving and starting a new board.

Perhaps an option of local caching some content could be useful.

Miro is an excellent collaboration tool for remote teams. It allows us to quickly create and share visuals with our team members and customers. We can easily brainstorm ideas, track progress, and have productive conversations. The intuitive user interface and customizable templates make it easy to use and help us save time.

The only downside is that it can be a bit expensive for some teams, especially if you want to get the full features.

I've looked far and white for methods to do my project planning and tracking. Using the visuals Miro offers me is beyond anything i have found thus far. I finally get my plans in order and get more things done. Both for myself as for my team. Use it heavily to visualize dependencies, use size to signal importance, colors for status (to do-working-done) and use tags to mark technical debt. Zoom out to have the bigger picture like the decision trees, guiding principles. Zoom in and find the details for the daily job, mark your technical debt and more.

Because the interface doesn't get in your way, starting might be a little hard. I've had no problem with this myself, but found colleagues requiring some time to master Miro.

Miro has helped me in a lot of areas range from gathering ideas to final delivery. This software is very easy to use because the interface is very friendly. Miro also has template-ready to use. I recommend to you to try all the template that suits your project and need.

It’s hard to navigate. Sometimes I lost to find which board is which when my board is getting bigger. It would be nice if we can name every section, so when we right click, we can easily choose which section we want to go.

Miro provides me with a unique feature set that is difficult to find packaged as one product. I like that the ability to move around sets of a diagram and Miro will automatically adjust everything to fit in frame,

There are some features that I may never use and would like if I could pay less as I don't use it, however I think Miro is very reasonably priced so not a deal breaker.

Miro is intuitive, I spent a couple of minutes to navigate and simply started working. The unlimited canvas is the most thrilling feature of the app. I have finally had a tool to organize all my stuff, all in one place.

I haven't found any substantial drawbacks in Miro which prevented me from using it efficiently.

We really like the way to visually collaborate among our develop team members. This so far is the most advanced in many drawing type products I have used before. Also enormously powerful is that about any object on the page can have a link. This means that I can pin-point and lead people to the specific spot or from another page when the pages get huge.

Sometimes the product slows down when we have many objects on the page. The "app" is great, but it is hard to use with multiple oAuth accounts. There seems to be no effortless way of completely logging out of one oAuth account. We had the same issue on our own app we developed, so this is a common issue, but that must be addressed.

-Free for Educators to use with students
-Works extremely well with Google Suite, Microsoft 365 Business
-Great alternative to SmartBoard
-Pen feature is very smooth

-Takes some getting used to.
-Can have a Prezzi, dizzying affect
- Users need to be taught how to use

Miro is one of the best tools that keep the team cohesive, and collaborative effectively when planning new projects or making decisions, as the Miro whiteboard provides us with a wide space to collect ideas, combine them, and display them in several ways easily. We can also distinguish the team’s inputs with colors or using different shapes so that it is easy for us to review and comment on them. I like very much the presence of a set of ready-made templates that cover all the needs of brainstorming in addition to preparing workflow charts. I also like Miro's responsiveness, which gives us the flexibility to collaborate in real-time, especially when sharing remotely. It's also great how Miro can add and coordinate sticky notes, shapes, images, and videos, making the panels more tidy and comprehensive.

Miro is an ideal and responsive tool that is free from any complications. Subscribing and adding new members is very simple. In addition, the strong integration with the rest of the tools that we use daily provides us with an integrated work environment.

So lets start with what I like:
1. Miro is the best thing for mindmapping projects and strategies
2. Easy to add multiple images and make some small but necessary editing
3. Super cool for vusial analysis. My job includes menu analysis of QSR chains, Miro make it much easier, a billion times more efficient tool that others

Cons:
1. Tables are available but editing mechanics is 3/5, need to be improved.
2. Hard (or even impossible) to add videos on your Miro board, thus its not easy to make fully packed reference board for let's say your product or project, or even presentation

Miro is an excellent platform for productivity and collaborative work, it has many features, but I think those two are the ones that best define the platform. It has a pretty nice-looking interface, very optimized, you have all the functions from the home page, that's good because it helps save a lot of time. There are many templates available to the user that allow us to save a lot of time and work. Group project management it's excellent, it's where Miro shines because it has an impressive suite of collaborative tools, from task management, time management, brainstorming, calendars, diagrams, and everything. Miro is a 5-star platform that whoever you are will surely find a use for it.

The price to get all the features can be very expensive, this is a hindrance because the free version has many limitations.

Miro is a great whiteboarding tool that is, at the core, easy to use and navigate. And, it's a joy to explore the tool as well. It's very friendly in a sense that it doesn't intimidate new users (as platforms like Adobe or Figma might), which is great when you're collaborating with people who aren't from design teams. The implementation of the miroverse and being able to explore a multitude of templates has been one of my favorite updates thus far. It's allowed me to understand and see the potential of Miro beyond what I tend to use it for. I find the timer tool (with the music update) to be extremely effective when I facilitate workshops internally or with people from other teams as well. The snap to grid tool is awesome.

I don't know why I can't increase font-size beyond 288px. Sometimes when I'm whiteboarding and really in the zone, I don't think about my dimensions or sizing and I get really frustrated when I size up the text and the textboxes elongate and enlarge automatically. I also don't know why I can't make the text inside sticky notes bold, and why there are only two font options for them.

Miro offers an excellent online platform to organise various methods and meetings in the workplace. It offers the possibility to create a clear structure for online meetings. You can add a variety of graphs, key figures, tables and everything else you need. For example, KanBan cards can be used to assign tasks to specific people, flowcharts, tables and many other possibilities.It is the perfect tool to create a clear structure in meetings and get a clear overview of the key figures and important information you want to show (by directly linking Excel, PowerPoint, Word documents, online links, websites...).

Sometimes it is a little bit tricky to move things around, get used to the software and the way it works. With a little bit of experience you get used to use frames, block the content and manage that other users don't move things around and change the board.
