Overall Satisfaction with Miro

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In our organization, we use Miro for product development. This includes, but is not limited to, the organization of ideas that are then translated into a backlog, tracking the status of projects across the different development teams, and even using it as a scratch pad to create rudimentary visuals that become official designs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Template options & functionality
Modifying content intuitively
Sharing capabilities

Cons

Icon/shape options
Board update email notifications

Return on Investment

Improved accountability

Collaboration

This has made the work from home experience feel like working from the office in some instances. It allows stakeholders to literally and figuratively align on the same vision. We additionally meet weekly to discuss our project's progress states and helps us stay interactively engaged with each other by taking notes and updating information on a kanban board.

Likelihood to Recommend

To me, Miro is especially great for the visual learner/person who has a ton of thoughts in their head that they need to organize. I'd recommend Miro first and foremost to people who need to get their ideas "on paper". Secondly, I'd recommend it for ease of tracking to-do lists that have multiple levels. Lastly, I'd recommend it to the user who needs to visualize and capture every aspect of a work flow. Miro makes it incredibly easy and intuitive for me to capture the above, and would recommend it to colleagues or friends in order to do the same.
