Easy for anyone to get started using the basics, but also more complex features available if you want them. Makes it easy to visualise and share ideas in a collaborative space.
I've found the data tables particularly useful to be able to show the same data in multiple different views, and knowing that if I make an update to one it will sync with all the others - a big bugbear of mine is having to make the same update in multiple places so this has been a huge time saver and helped us keep things consistent! I like that you can hide and show different fields and filter the view depending on what you're using it for or who you're presenting it to, so it doesn't feel overwhelming even if you've got loads of data in there (unlike a spreadsheet which quickly becomes messy and overwhelming). I've used data tables to keep track of requirements and user needs, create user story maps, plan sprints, keep track of my to-do items.
I also like that when you copy any frame, not just data tables, you get the option to sync to the original - it makes it easy to display the same information/visuals in multiple places while still retaining a 'master' version.
I enjoyed the AI prototyping feature when it was available to us, but our organisation opted not to pay for the feature long term. Other than that, I'e not really used the AI features.
As a service designer/UCD specialist, I'm not sure I could do mom job without Miro. I use it every single day in some capacity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One downside that I have noticed is that if you have a few large data tables on a board (or copies of a data table with different views), it can significantly slow the board down and make it difficult to move around or add to the table. In some cases we've had to create a separate board just to house the main data table, and then copied in a view to a specific board when we need it.
I've also tried the layers feature a few times which has been helpful to an extent, but we've found that the more layers we add, the less reliable it becomes. We've found that content sometimes randomly moves from a layer back to the default layer or just disappears altogether. In one project we wasted significant amounts of time trying to find out where bits of content were supposed to be and moving them back to the correct layer (sometimes this would happen every couple of days, so not just a one-off issue). It's also not particularly easy to find layers and not clear at a glance when layers have been used - so if someone in the team comes to a board that hasn't worked extensively on that project, they may miss content if they don't know its hidden in a layer.
Within the data tables, it would be easier if there was a way to bulk apply /bulk copy a field selection across multiple rows (i.e I have 20 rows that I want to add a new 'to do' tag to - currently the only way seems to be to go through them one by one and select 'to do'. It would be easier if there was a way to apply this to multiple rows at once (a bit like in excel how you can update one and then drag the corner of the cell down to copy into the next rows) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
