Timer is a feature that we really miss on zoom when we do team brainstorms. Awesome that you have it!
I use Miro almost every day and it's fair to say it's becoming viral at my company.
I'm Miro academic ambassador - not only I enjoy this service, but it helps me now greatly with the distance teaching. To share my positive experience with Miro, I have invited all my collegues to use it and organized several workshops within the university community to spread these positive vibes. Miro is absolutely great for collaboration and meetings, for personal student's consultations and large seminar. I highly recommend it!
@irina_shafranskaya Have you been able to use breakout rooms with this to have smaller groups of students work together?
So many useful templates and ability to build my own — easy to start. Collaborating online is more and more engaging with every update.
Miro is very powerful. Am impressed with the speed and simplicity for performing complex tasks. Big fan of the product and my productivity has gone up significantly . With no travel plans for rest of 2020 , this is the tool for catching up with founders of portfolio companies and teams who are all located in multiple cities and towns. Highly recommend the free version.
@harsha99 Thank you and glad to hear Miro is helping ease some of the pain of being fully remote. It's our goal to make collaboration feel as close to in-person as possible :)

@francoolaami We totally encourage you to try using both products to understand which one will better suit your needs. You can also take a look at this pretty comprehensive overview put together by Olly Willans, Creative Director at Torchbox, who tried using both Miro and Mural: https://torchbox.com/blog/miro-v...
One more option to learn all about the ins and outs of using Miro as a consultant is connecting with other fellow consultants in Miro community – happy to say there are dozens of them there: https://community.miro.com/
I've been a Miro user for over a year. It is an absolute must for remote teams. The device support is super impressive and it works fantastically between desktop and tablet. I often use it with my ipad and apple pencil.
As a remote team, we were having trouble roughing out ideas without the physical presence of a whiteboard, post-it's, and dry erase markers. Miro completely solved this need and went above and beyond. The free feature set allows a ton of freedom when you're just getting started.
Honestly at this point I sound like a paid shill but I honestly love this tool. Give it a try!
@averycarter Thank you so much! It's great to hear how Miro helps you recreate the freedom and creativity that comes from a physical whiteboard in an online, remote friendly format.
@saastronomical Hi Andy, if you are on a paid plan, you'll find the video icon chat in the 'collaboration toolbar' at the bottom. Let us know what you think!

Today we're excited to launch Miro Remote Meetings and Workshops!
Our goal with Remote Meetings and Workshops is to empower every team, group, and organization regardless of their size or location to work together confidently while remote. At Miro, we believe remote collaboration should be as easy as picking up a dry erase marker.

Have been using Miro for 6 months now. It's great for collaborating online and team brainstorms. Given the circumstances with the team WFH, Miro has also been a valuable white-boarding tool for members doing individual brainstorms and projects.
I'm most excited about the new timer and voting feature!
@darlene_dang Thank you for your support, and glad to hear that Miro is helping your teams during this global WFH time. I'd recommend also trying out the new Attention Management (If you ever feel like you're herding cats on a board.) :) https://help.miro.com/hc/en-us/a...
I like the attention management feature, super cool for running workshops and getting people to follow along!
I have inspired so many with what you can do on Miro. I just love the link to function and you can shot from one place to another. Just did this presentation on transforming people and teams through data-informed insights at GrowthTribe and it was a real hit. Here is the link to view the board. https://miro.com/app/board/o9J_l...
