Miro

Pros: It is how quickly it helps teams get aligned—whether it’s brainstorming, mapping flows, or running a workshop, everyone can contribute in real time without needing to be in the same room. I also really like how flexible it is: sticky notes, diagrams, templates, and frames make it easy to turn messy ideas into something structured and shareable.

Cons: As boards get larger, Miro can start to feel a bit heavy—performance can slow down, and it becomes harder to find things unless the board is kept tidy. Also, when multiple people are editing at once, boards can get cluttered quickly, so it takes discipline (or strong templates) to keep things organized and easy to follow

Pros: Honestly, Miro just feels like the kind of tool that gets out of your way and lets you think. The canvas is huge, everything is drag and drop, and you never really feel boxed in by the structure of it. What I liked most though is how easy it is to get everyone involved — even people who aren't particularly "visual" types. You send someone a link, they jump in, and within two minutes they're adding sticky notes and moving things around like they've been using it for years. There's almost no learning curve, which is rare for a collaboration tool. The templates are also genuinely useful. Not just filler actual ready-to-go boards for things like retrospectives, brainstorming sessions, or roadmap planning that you can just pick up and run with. It makes remote collaboration feel less like a compromise and more like you're actually in the same room together.

Cons: The one thing that got to me after a while is how heavy it can feel once your boards start filling up. Like, the more content you add, the slower things get especially if you're on a video call at the same time. It's not a dealbreaker but you do notice it. Also, the pricing. It's generous enough to get started, but the moment your team grows or you need some of the more advanced features, you're looking at a jump in cost that feels a bit steep. Feels like some things that should just be included are locked behind higher tiers. And honestly? Sometimes the amount of options and templates can be a little overwhelming. You open it up to do something simple and suddenly you're spending 20 minutes just picking a board layout. First world problem, I know but still. Nothing that made me want to stop using it, just small friction points that add up over time.

Pros: Miro makes real-time collaboration very easy with its intuitive interface, flexible canvas, and a wide range of templates that help speed up brainstorming and planning.

Cons: Large boards can become cluttered and slightly hard to navigate, and performance may slow down when working with complex or content-heavy boards.

Pros: Miro was easy to use with multiple collaborators - I could see everything we were working on in the same frame, and I could zoom in and out to focus on specific parts.

Cons: It could get laggy with lots of users on the file, sometimes we would have trouble locating specific parts of the project because there were too many details in one screen.

Pros: What I most enjoyed of Miro is that it turned out really fun and easy to use for making mental maps, flowcharts and diagrams. It helps automatizing the creation of these tools, because it’s a big dashboard without space limits, and you just need to add the elements you want without worrying about the space limit (if it’s going to be too small or too big). It’s also very collaborative, which is something’s that stands out when you got to work with groups of coworkers; it has been a game changer for me and my peers when it comes to teamwork and organizing our works and projects. It feels fun, chill, but professional at the same time. The navigation in the platform is fast and intuitive; you don’t need to type much to find what you want. Talking about the elements, I was thrilled when I saw the variety of cool things (Colorful post-its, arrows, pie charts, bar charts, etc) you can add to make the dashboard more organized and easier to digest. Loved that!

Cons: For the cons, the one that stood out the most for me, is that the free version doesn’t let me create more than 3 dashboards at the same time, because when I need to open many dashboards for the big projects, then I need to use another tool or just try to adjust to the limit it is giving me, and it’s not really comfortable.

Pros: Miro fits naturally into how I work as a freelancer. The visual whiteboard is flexible enough to handle anything from structured workshop flows to open brainstorming sessions. Most clients already know it, which saves a lot of onboarding time. The feature set is deep without feeling overwhelming once you're in it.

Cons: The free plan is limited - you'll likely need a paid tier to get the most out of it for client work.

Pros: Its very good UX, very visually pleasing adn very easy to get started, use and share with others. It's flexible and makes brainstromign easy, interactive and inclusive.

Cons: You have to pay for a lot of the most useful features, which is frustrating. you can only have a small number of boards on the free version.

Pros: Miro offers strong value for money, especially for teams needing a flexible collaborative whiteboard, though larger plans can be pricey. Customer support is responsive with solid documentation, but live help can be slow at peak times. The platform scores high on ease of use, with intuitive drag-and-drop tools and templates that reduce the learning curve. Organizational management features like team spaces and permissions help keep boards structured, while meetings feel more engaging with real-time co-editing and presentation modes. Workflow management integrates well with tools like Jira and Asana, making task tracking smoother. Overall navigation is clean and logical, though very large boards can occasionally feel cluttered.

Cons: It gives the ready made templates for workflows, inbuilt AI features, and endless whiteboard. important is value for money.

Pros: I like about Miro, the easy way to contribute with other people at the same time about a project and the usefull tools that they provide.

Cons: What I don't like about Miro is that the mobile side doesn´t work well nd crush really easily. Because sometimes the whiteboard is too big, there is extra downloading that makes things hard.

Pros: We use Miro quite a lot, it's a very interesting tool to design workflows, organise retrospective meetings. Also the Miroverse community where you can get some templates saves us a lot of time. Literally, white boards are dead after Miro.

Cons: No major issue to report, but sometimes when the board is a bit heavy with some PDFs, images or heavy content, the board could become a bit laggy and slow to load.

Pros: Practical and efficient to work across devices and it allows for visual collaboration in real time.

Cons: Large boards can become overwhelming. More structure tools would help keep complex projects organized.

Pros: Miro includes features like a built-in timer, an anonymous voting system, and a "Bring to me" function to force all participants to follow what you are presenting.

Cons: For a beginner, the interface can be intimidating. There are so many tools and menus that it's easy to feel lost during your first few sessions.

Pros: My current team are designing a new app within our business , to allow us to map out the project we use Miro and integrate with Jira tickets to see the bigger picture on Miro.

Cons: I feel its quite hard to navigate around , I find unless you know the full ins and out of Miro its quite hard to draw out a flow chart etc

Pros: Our team loves Miro. The value this tool provides is immense for planning meetings and wire-framing out ideas. The UI is easy to use for any team member and we most commonly use it during meeting screen shares.

Cons: The infinite scroll is great, but sometimes, it can be hard to get your bearings if you zoom around too fast.

Pros: Miro makes collaboration easy and enjoyable. Real-time editing, visual tools, and a user-friendly design really stand out.

Cons: Some advanced features are only available in paid plans, and very large boards can sometimes feel a bit slow.

Pros: I absolutely love Miro. It has helped me with teaching tasks, presentation tasks, group collaboration and simply visualising ideas and structures. It is incredibly well designed and thought through. It looks beautiful and is a joy to use. They have very appealing licenses for Universities which makes getting everyone onboard a breeze. Really reccomend for a wide range of uses.

Cons: It is hard to find fault with Miro, but it might simply be that it takes a tiny bit of time and commitment to learn the ropes and become a creative genius. The time is well spent though, as once you master the art of creating engaging designs and presentations it is hard to imagine going back to anything else.

Pros: What our company likes most about Miro is how easy it makes collaboration. Our teams can brainstorm, plan, and share their ideas in real-time when they are out in the field.

Cons: Overall, our company finds very few downsides to this product. If I were to mention one thing it would have to be, there can be a small learning curve and occasional performance issues with very large boards.

Pros: During covid Miro allowed us to transition to seamlessly from printing masses of designs on giant whiteboards to doing this all virtually. This has saved us thousands in rpinting costs and allows peoplke from any location to dial in a see whats going on in the project. The organizational features allows us to manage this data easily and keep it set upin a way that works well for the team. The board can easily be shared online in a meeting or on a large display or touch screen for in in person collaboration. This is now an integral part of our workflow and is super easy to use.

Cons: We ideally would like to be on the enterprise plan to take advantage of the security settings like scim but these are fenced off and we are priced out as a small business. Its a shame but unfortunately a lot of major apps are like this.

Pros: Excellent for collaboration and facilitating workshops. Very easy to use and setup. Good for brainstorming.

Cons: Sometimes sharing and access becomes difficult cross-organisations. There should also be a way to manage version control.

Pros: Really easy to use, streamlined, and great for visual mapping. It's relatively low cost and the free version works well.

Cons: Could be maybe more robust like Figma if you need more functionality. It also could be smoother with collaboration.

Pros: We specifically tested Miro for its operational capacities. It really shines at helping ops teams visualize complex workflows and dependencies. Mapping processes, swimlanes and bottlenecks on an infinite canvas makes it easier to see where work stalls and who owns what. Real-time collaboration and templates help teams align quickly and linking boards to work in other systems (via integrations) keeps things connected. We found it especially useful for cross-functional planning sessions, retros, ops playbooks, etc.

Cons: If you need structured task assignment, or resourcing built in, you might still need complementary tools? Boards can get messy without disciplined organization (even though that is the same in most tools). We didn't test it out with the whole team, but intuitively it feels like some teammates would struggle with the freeform canvas at first.

Pros: It is very easy to use. The click and drag interface and the templated actions make visualising data and concepts easy. It is also easy to share and collaborate with others. The free licence tier makes it easy for others to join in.

Cons: $98

Pros: Easy visualization tool especially when we need to do brainstorming and information presentation - Miro comes in easy and flexible.

Cons: Sometimes when there's too much data or boards it will lag and the launching time will be quite long.
