Digital Whiteboards for mixed location teams

It's a cloud-based web app where the desktop application is just a web browser wrapper for their application. This means there's no offline storage of Miro boards as well as no caching of content on Miro boards. Opening up any boards within the desktop app results in all content being redownloaded which can be quite slow.

Working together is seamless once you've invited your colleagues to join your Miro board. The only issue is that it's difficult to quickly share a board exclusively with a team. Every time we make new boards, there's a fumble where we're trying to get all our team members added in.

The tool is fantastic for being a digital whiteboard within our team and has allowed us to rapidly brainstorm ideas remotely. It's also worked fantastically for other departments on the team when working independently, as it can be used to easily concept flow charts, mood boards, and more. It starts to become less appropriate when you want to get more in-depth with your concepting. It's great for the initial idea phase, but as you start to lock ideas in more, you then transition to other programs that are more suited for those individual tasks.
