I’m an independent design consultant, collaborating on small teams with other independents and firms, working on 6 or 8 projects at a time across different teams and clients. I’m currently looking at a move from free to either a team or consulting license.

If independent consultants on a project team each have their own independent licenses, can they collaborate with and edit each others’ project boards (eg as “anonymous guest editors”?), or do they need to be paid additional team members on those boards in order to have full editing rights? 

Thanks for any advice.

@Doug Munday - Anyone wishing to have full editing capabilities, i.e., not be a “guest editor” but a full “editor” while on the board, needs to be a Full or Occasional (Day Passes) licensed user of the team in which the board resides (or at least an Occasional user on just the board).

Note: Day Passes are only available on the Consultant and Business Plans - more on that here:

Anyone with a paid plan can grant anonymous/guest editor access to a board and anyone (no Miro account required) can edit that board.

And just because someone has their own Miro license does not mean they can have full edit rights on any board - licenses are applied at the team/account level.

To clarify, guest editors can’t:

I would personally suggest the Consultant Plan for you - with this plan you can

  • use Day Passes if you need them
  • segregate clients work (and access) by creating unlimited teams within your plan.
