What is Miro?

Miro is a visual collaboration platform built around an infinite, multiplayer canvas that brings together docs, tables, slides, diagrams and boards in one workspace. Teams use it to run ideation, research synthesis, roadmap planning, diagramming and prototyping, with built-in AI assistance and over 250 app integrations. It is used by more than 250,000 companies and connects to tools such as Jira, Azure DevOps and Asana to keep product development moving from idea to launch.

Pros & Cons

Advantages

  • The free plan lets individuals and small teams try the core canvas without paying.
  • It combines many board types and document formats in one place, reducing the need for separate tools.
  • A large template library and over 250 integrations help teams get started quickly and fit it into existing workflows.
  • Real-time multiplayer collaboration suits distributed and remote product teams.
  • Enterprise options include SSO, SCIM, regional data hosting and 24/7 support with SLAs.

Limitations

  • The free plan is limited to three editable boards, which small teams can outgrow quickly.
  • AI features are metered by monthly credits, so heavy AI use may require a higher tier.
  • The Enterprise plan requires a minimum of 30 members, putting it out of reach for very small organisations.
  • The breadth of features and board types can feel overwhelming for new users.
