What's great

user-friendly interface (15)collaborative features (28)remote collaboration (10)visual planning (15)brainstorming tool (22)predefined templates (7)

Indispensable for workshops, especially when the team is spread across different cities. We’ve completely replaced physical sticky notes and flipcharts - brainstorming and retros now run much more dynamically. Everyone sees the same board and can vote in real time.

What needs improvement

slow performance (4)

Performance on very large boards. When a project runs for years and thousands of sticky notes and diagrams pile up, the interface starts to noticeably lag during navigation, which breaks the flow of thought.

vs Alternatives

Task synchronization here is more transparent for the entire development team

How reliable is performance during remote workshops?

Overall, it handles the load really well, especially when up to 10–15 people are in a session. But if we jump into a huge, old board with thousands of objects, you start to notice freezing and rendering delays

Does mind mapping feel intuitive and fast?

Yes, definitely

As an illustrator, Miro is not the first tool that comes to mind when thinking about creating artwork. Yet, it has become an invaluable part of my workflow in terms of brainstorming, planning, and collaborating on projects. One of the best features Miro offers is the infinite canvas. It's perfect for mind-mapping, storyboarding, or sketching out ideas and concepts. It feels like an endless whiteboard where I can let my creativity run wild without worrying about space constraints. Miro's collaboration capabilities are another significant advantage. The ability to work with clients or other team members in real-time is a game-changer. The interactive features like comments, tagging, and live cursors provide a dynamic and immersive collaborative experience. I also appreciate Miro's integration with other tools I frequently use, such as Google Drive, Adobe Creative Cloud, and Slack. This interoperability makes my workflow more streamlined and cohesive. However, Miro isn't the tool to use for creating detailed or polished illustrations. The drawing tools available are basic and lack the precision and control that other specialized illustration software offers. While it's great for rough sketches and wireframes, it won't replace Photoshop or Illustrator for creating high-quality artwork. In summary, Miro has been a revelation in the brainstorming and planning stages of my illustration process. The interactive, collaborative whiteboard space is great for sketching out ideas, receiving feedback, and working together with team members. Despite the lack of advanced drawing features, it's the planning, brainstorming, and collaborative features that make Miro shine. For illustrators who often work as part of a team or require a tool for effective planning and ideation, I highly recommend giving Miro a try. Just remember that you'll likely need to pair it with a more robust drawing tool to complete your final artwork.

I use Miro for brainstorming and team collaboration, and I really like its intuitive whiteboard and wide range of templates. It makes visualizing ideas easy and keeps everyone on the same page. However, the interface can sometimes feel cluttered, and performance slows down with large boards. Overall, it’s a great tool but could use some improvements in speed and simplicity.

Our team has used this for site structure planning, visualization, presentations, workflow, and more. We have enough features in the free version, and the features are mostly as you would expect. I personally miss some behaviors, like converting objects into others (shapes<->mindmap<->sticky notes, etc.), but it may as well be implemented in the future!

Must have tool for a visual thinker 😀 Much more suitable for software architecting work than Figma/FigJam. In my 6 months using it for that purpose I'm yet to find a feature missing. Super powerful for cross-tem / cross-timezone communication around software decisions as a combo with Loom.

As a project manager with a roster of clients, I'm always on the hunt for tools that make their journey as smooth and pleasant as possible. And let me tell you, MIRO AI has been an absolute lifesaver! From its sleek and minimalist UI to its well-written product documentation, MIRO AI has proven to be a versatile and reliable asset for me and my clients. And with so many use cases, it's become an indispensable tool for enhancing our collaborative work. But perhaps what I love most about MIRO AI is how it's saved me time by making group meetings more interactive. With its intuitive prompts and real-time feedback, I can keep everyone engaged and on the same page without any effort at all. MIRO AI, I'm rooting for you to become the next big tech unicorn! Right now, you're still one of the best-kept secrets on Product Hunt, but with your unbeatable value proposition, I have no doubt you'll soon be making waves in the industry. Best of luck with your future funding rounds!

Miro is great for collaboration and visual planning, which I am a huge fan of! I’ve used it to brainstorm, plan projects, and map out ideas with others even remotely. The ready-made templates and clean design make it easy to get started and stay organised. It does take up a bit of space on your screen, but it’s worth it for the clarity and flexibility it brings.

An indispensable tool for conveying a design. I recall the primitive days when we used to share files of flowcharts of this or that office package... this is such an upgrade and so much easier to collaborate. can even see the mouse of my colleagues without having to share the screen.

Miro is our go-to for remote collaboration. I personally use it to facilitate brainstorming sessions with the team. It’s easy to use and scales well for both quick notes and detailed workflows. Everyone stays engaged, and it’s become essential in our toolkit.

To be honest, I prefer FigJam but I think Miro gets better and better. They really have a chance to become the market leader imho if they hire some good designers to get rid of this ugly "Microsoft Office" design and some good product people to improve the UX and to build better templates and make them more accessible.
