Overall Satisfaction with Miro
I use it for just about everything from brainstorming, workshopping, managing our product roadmap, doing competitor reviews, async collaboration (via talktracks), product discovery. It just makes collaboration and brainstorming so easy and presentable. It's a fantastic productivity and creativity tool.
Pros
- Capturing user input
- Presenting all information about a project in one spot
- Excel table to post-it notes, then using AI cluster to get an initial view of themes
- Async collaboration via talktrack
- Brainstorming with miroAI
- Design feedback
- Managing a roadmap and linking to Jira projects
- Generating prototypes quickly and allowing us to edit those prototypes
Cons
- Table formatting can be a bit finicky and is limited (e.g. there's not filer for headers)
- Searching the Miroverse is a bit difficult. Often hard to find exactly what you're looking for.
- For some reason, when you have a table in a frame, you can't lock all the objects together.
- When you're on an enterprise licence and other can't collaborate unless they're also on an enterpries licence. What if you allowed other people in the enterprise to contribute to workshops (e.g. create/fill in post-its, etc), but just limit the board features and they can't create boards). The way Enterprise Licenses are currenly managed is quite painful.
- Easier to conduct workshops and quicker to get everyone on the same page
- Massive reduction in work efficiency (for roadmapping as a PM) when you have the Jira plug-in
- Dynamic, interactive way to present information which reduces the time it takes to bring people up to speed
- Allows us to have better conversations with stakeholders - producing better products
Talktrack has been great for conducting async workshops.
MiroAI protoyping has been an absolute game changer.
Other MiroAI features such as summarisation have also been really helpful post workshop.

Unfortunately, our organisation hasn't really deployed any of the native integrations (e.g. Jira) on Miro.
We only go into the office 1-2 times a week. Miro allows us to effectively collaborate remotely both synchronously and asynchronously. It's a crucial tool we use for remote collaboration.
Before Miro, I used to use powerpoint as a whiteboard tool. It was very clunky and inefficient. I started using Miro during the lockdowns at the beginning of the pandemic and it makes collaboration so much easier. I have not used Mural.

Using Miro
- Product Roadmapping
- Product Discovery
- Workshopping
- Brainstorming
- App taxonomies
- Competitor Reviews

Evaluating Miro and Competitors
- Ease of Use
Ability to conduct both real-time collaboration and also effectively work asynchronously.
I would probably put more emphasis on generative AI capabilities which I know Miro AI has now. As a product manager, features like AI prototyping is very helpful and can accelerate our product discovery phase.
