Miro Reviews

I used the solution for mind mapping. I was learning machine learning on my own. There was a lot of information to remember, and I was struggling with it, so I used mind mapping. I think I used it for customer journey mapping for process flow.

The tool's use was not a very industry-specific utilization. It was used at a personal level. A personal level of use cannot be measured with the industry benefits.

Miro is an end-to-end process mapping tool that facilitates the creation of process documentation. It allows users to outline various process steps and add annotations to describe each step in detail. Additionally, it serves as a collaborative platform for business analysts to work together, review, and approve the documented processes. It also enables users to provide demos to customers to ensure a clear understanding of the processes.

It is a versatile tool suitable for various tasks, including process modeling. It is flexible when saving multiple formats, not just XML. It provides this offering, unlike other platforms like Cloud.io or SIP Chart.

Additionally, it is a desktop-based application, allowing for the creation of multiple flows that can be easily accessed and edited. In contrast, other platforms like Product.io may have limitations, such as the inability to reopen previously built flows once logged off, necessitating a rebuild each time.

I work as a consultant with Miro and am involved in consultancy, project management, and process management for some companies. I also collaborate with these companies if they require a collaborative tool for large-scale projects. For example, if there are some projects and a large group works together, we use Miro on such projects as the solution is excellent for managing large-scale projects. Given its efficiency in managing large projects, I did not hesitate to purchase the license, and currently, fifteen projects are running on Miro. 

I haven't fully assessed the time reduction or cost-effectiveness yet since I've recently started using Miro to manage projects in this new way. Initially, I may save more time as I can visualize everything in one place and streamline project activities. I've also noticed that collaborating with others has become more efficient as we can quickly share visualizations and information. While I can't quantify the exact time saved yet, I believe there is a positive impact on efficiency.

We have set up many of our marketing operations process charts on this. We do privacy workflows, customer lifecycles, cross-channel campaign flows, etc. 

Our leadership loves Miro. This has helped us to audit our workflows, use it for team meetings where we are able to review the same sitting in our remote locations, identify choke points and areas for optimizations and lastly, maintain it to see the latest version of our workflows.

Earlier, we were doing this on Excel, however, it was time-consuming and not a very inspirational too.

As mentioned earlier, Miro has helped us to lay down our complex processes in one place without having to make a time-consuming PowerPoint or Word document. Most times, these workflows are so self-explanatory that we can just distribute them among our team members. We have used Miro for the following:

1. Team building activities: We can ask team members to participate in activities where multiple teams can work together on the same board

2. Brainstorming activities: 

3. Laying down complex operations flowchart

4. Remote workshops conducted

I use Miro for creating wireframes and prototypes, which are my main tasks. I also use it for creating roadmaps and product improvements. Additionally, we use it for product investigation and creating live streams.

Miro has been helpful as a flexible solution. It provides a space where I can organize my thoughts about the features and how I work. It allows me to put all my ideas in one place.

Using the SCRUM methodology, we use Miro to co-create content for software development and meetings, such as reviews and retrospectives.

The principal feature of the platform is the capability of co-creating content and sharing invites with all people in the organization and outside. It makes it very easy to manage meetings, and the outcomes are excellent.

We used Miro mainly for brainstorming and getting some ideas when I was working on a project with my friends. I also used it for a little bit of diagramming.

Miro is a very easy-to-use tool. The solution's UI is very user-friendly, and it is not that hard to define the shapes you are looking for or to import them. The solution facilitates good team collaboration between my friends and me, and there's no delay.
