Overall Satisfaction with Miro

We use Miro as a main tool to collaborate within a cross-functional team. It's often use as a sketching and ideation tool for me as a product designer to elaborate information architecture and product map. It's also the tool I love for synthesizing and analzying data from user interviews. On top of that, we also use it as a retro board and during virtual happy hour since we're all working from different locations across the globe.

Pros

  • Templates for different use cases
  • Sticky notes

Cons

  • scrolling and zoom-in/out
  • uploading/downloading could be more intuitive
  • improved remote workers' productivity
Totally agree on improving the collaboration on new projects. Since my team and other teams I work with are all across the globe, it has saved a lot of time on real-time collaboration. Recent changes is a function I love as I don't always get to join all the meetings due to different timezones.

Do you think Miro delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Did implementation of Miro go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Miro again?

Yes

I use Miro because everyone else I work with that are not a designer have no access to Figma (Figjam). When I am collaborating with other designers, we tend to use Figjam more than Miro as it's easier to pull our ideas from Figma file to figjam than to miro.
With enterprise account, I cannot collaborate with users outside of our organization which is sometimes a pain point for user interviews or any activities with users that are going on virtually.
Retrospective activity within a scrum team is a good use case since there's a timer for countdown. Everyone can put sticky notes, sticker, and vote for which topics to talk about which is super useful!
