Hey Miro, you want to improve your customer lifetime value? Here is an easy fix.
Hey Miro, don’t you want students to adopt your tool?
When on an Education Plan, it’s not possible anymore to create a board that students can edit during say a workshop. So, as an educator, I can’t let design students learn design thinking methods through hands-on work in Miro anymore
But people at Miro, you really want students to adopt your tools. Believe me, they are going to advocate for it at their future workplaces when they get to use it as students.
I work within the SaaS business myself, and I think you’ve made a mistaken when doing feature changes in your usage tiers.

Hi @Daniel Fridgren,
Thank you for sharing your feedback and raising this point about the Education Plan. I understand how important it is for students to have hands-on learning opportunities, especially in design thinking workshops.
You mentioned, “it’s not possible anymore to create a board that students can edit during say a workshop.” Could you clarify what you mean by this? Are students unable to edit even when the board’s permission settings are configured to allow anyone with the link to edit? In the meantime, you might want to explore if enablingguest editor permissions could be a viable workaround for your workshops.
Your insights as both an educator and SaaS professional are valuable, and I’ll ensure this feedback is flagged internally. Please let us know if you have further questions or need assistance.
I’m sorry, but you seem to mistake outdated documentation for the actual product.
Please test the product on an Education Plan, and you can easily see that it’s not possible to allow anyone with the link to edit.
Here is a mobile screenshot of the options you have:
HI @Daniel Fridgren,
Upon checking, allowing edit access to anyone with the link under EDU plan is still available on my end.
Howdy @Daniel Fridgren & @Eca
This is me, Professor Ken from Bern. OK, I am better known as Dr. Ken. Just a note to say I am on the education plan and have NEVER had an issue with students accessing boards - either with Miro logins (which I encourage) or just as anonymous users.
Here is a screenshot of my board yesterday where I had 20 teams on the board:
Not only do I use Miro to augment my “frontal teaching” but also all my project teams use Miro to manage their SW development projects, agile, retros, planning poker, Kanban, all that.
Cheers from under 3 feet of snow since yesterday, Dr. Ken
PS. And PROUDLY I will say our entire college is slowly adopting Miro since I started teaching with it 2 years ago, hopefully due to the cool examples from me.
Thank you to Dr. Ken @Kenneth Ritley for sharing your insights! It's great to hear about your experiences with the Education Plan and how you've been using Miro effectively in your teaching.
@Daniel Fridgren, From my testing, when I used the mobile app to create a new board, I couldn't share with edit access at first. However, after I shared the board with "Anyone with the link" on the desktop version, the edit access appeared on the mobile app.
I’d suggest trying to share the board with your students using a different device (preferably, desktop device via Chrome browser), and then share the board again with edit access.
I hope this helps resolve the issue, and please do let me know if it continues to persist!
Hi again,
So it seems the IT admin had done specific changes to disallow the “anyone with the link” option.. And I didn’t know until yesterday. Fixed now.
