Product Review of Realtime Board

By Matthew Lynch

Spread the love

Realtime Board is an online whiteboard for visual team collaboration used by project managers, content creators, designers, app and web developers, marketers, consultants, strategists, creative agencies, and design thinkers all over the world to develop their ideas and projects. The app’s collaborating tools include real-time collaborative editing, comments, text chat, voice and video chat, screen sharing, and daily notifications. It also includes whiteboard tools such as sticky notes, freehand drawing, shapes, links, texts, and presentation mode.

Website: https://miro.com/

What Users Love About the App

“Lots of features, attentiveness to end-users (feedback system to make platform better), great presentation tools, and superb tool usability. I also love the templates and the continuous improvement of Miro over time.”

“Miro has been a game-changer in my workflow to get things done. I can present clear ideas or changes I would like to implement and in addition, to collaborate, it’s very practical as everyone can jump in and chime in the work being done.”

“Miro enables our team to collaborate very well remotely in a variety of ways. We use it to produce presentations, mind maps and flow diagrams to plan projects, and technical diagrams for reference.”

“What feels best about miro is that I can have a wide range of work I can do. During day time, I can facilitate workshops with colleagues, run design reviews, etc. But at night I can sit down and use miro for my illustration projects and use the platform in a whole different way.”

“I have been using Miro for over a year since we moved to a work-from-home setup. I absolutely love using it and find it essential for all types of work that I do. As a student leader who is also taking internships on the side, Miro has become my go-to work tool for both school and work, especially since I am pursuing Research.”

What Users Dislike About the App

“Navigation and selection of items on mobile devices, mobile-friendliness should be optimized to be able to deliver powerful content at your fingertips. The platform is still missing additional control of things such as icons and other items.”

“Although miro is generally easy to use, some of the table functionality is a little bit clunky, lending itself better towards diagrams. It took us a while to realize we could follow a certain presenter by clicking on their initials.”

“Sometimes we need to divide the participants into groups and provide each group a separate “room” — a dedicated area on a common board — where they could work with content separately from others. The only function I’m missing.”

“I dislike how it forces me to walk through the tool every time I start a new session. Lately, whenever I join a Miro session, there’s a host of popups and unskippable walk-through guides I must look at before I can start using the product.”

“When boards become large, the download process can be a little slow and it sometimes trips up with downloading the content that is currently in the viewer’s screen.”

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
