Music in Miro - Has anyone used Miro for musical projects?

Hi everyone!First time starting a topic in the community! Hope you’re safe and well.Has anyone used Miro for musical projects apart from embedding YouTube and Spotify? I’m curious to see if composers can work together in a board to create a group song! Wondering how we can push the limits for collaboration within a virtual workspace.Maybe that could be a jingle or anthem for Mironeers.

Ship it or leave it: how to follow-up on feature requests?

Hey, fellow product managers! How many feature requests do you have in your backlog? And how many of them will you actually implement? Does the user ever hear back again about their idea? Oof, customer requests... Tricky they are! Like you, we at Miro love our customers, and they love us back: we get lots of great feedback and tons of amazing, elaborate feature ideas. There are several channels that we are tracking: NPS survey feedback, support tickets, shoutouts on social networks, regular feedback review meetings with customer success and support agents. But while we certainly want to deliver as much value as possible, it may be challenging to manage customers’ expectations when it comes to these requests. So how do you go about it? Please share with us your tried and tested ways to track and follow-up on customer requests to guarantee the best user experience. Or, take part in this short poll, and leave your own option in the comments!

Massive Shout Outs to Match Height and Match Width Functions

I haven’t logged in to Miro for a week or two, so not sure when this feature was released, but want to give a massive shout outs to the dev and product teams for building in the Match Height and Match Width features natively to the platform. Thank you kindly! Another step in the direction of batch action is always appreciated.Unless I’m overlooking something, only additional request I have is to extend functionality beyond images to shapes as well.

Miro as Change Agent

I’m starting a New Topic here because I didn’t see anything else close to it.I am a new Miro user and LOVE the product. It has made a big difference in my work from a project I recently got into. I wanted to start a “Miro as Change Agent” topic to see if others have similar stories of the power of Miro and process visualization.My StoryI am the new Director of the Office of Extended Studies at Ithaca College. Part of my work is to create opportunities for high school learners to be with us on campus in the summertime for our pre-college programs. I just got through my first summer and immediately noticed how many challenges there were with the administrative processes for on-boarding participants because of all of the various systems, software, processes, and offices that are involved in these programs. So, I decided to do a stakeholder study to study the process a user (customer) goes through … from seeing a piece of our marketing, to applying, to enrolling, to paying, to experience,

Miro Orientation Cafe Design

Hello everyone! As one of the last posts in 2022, I wanted to share the latest creation from my team at Hiro Studio, our newest Miroverse submission, the Miro Orientation Café (https://miro.com/miroverse/miro-orientation-cafe/). For over a year, we have been working on identifying the foundational pieces that new Miro users need to be taught in order to quickly begin engaging in a workshop. This Miro Experience provides visual, written, and video instructions that appeal to a variety of learning styles and can get new users up to speed and ready to contribute in no time.  Huge ups to @Rachel for her constant support and always helping us push the boundaries of what is possible in Miro, and to Hilary, Hiro Studio’s amazing designer who pulls all of the crazy ideas out of our heads and makes them beautiful.Keep on designing amazing experiences in Miro everyone! I hope you all have happy holidays and wish you the best in 2023!Jon

High Value vs. Low Value Projects

Hi crew,Hope your December is off to a great start. I can’t believe 2023 is so close! As the year comes to a close, I’ve been reflecting on processes that I can improve in the new year. In particular, I’m zeroing in on a better way to fairly assign work. One of the biggest learnings for us at Use All Five this year came out of our DEI Training with Peoplism - that your employees may find a different level of value in each project than management believes. It’s crucial for employees to feel valued and like their career is progressing, so this exercise of aligning on what’s considered a “High Value” vs. a “Low Value” project becomes paramount to retention. They provided this worksheet for us that we’ve been using. My plan is to turn this into something in the Miroverse soon. I’m curious to hear from you:How are you assigning work at your company? Do you look through the lens of high / low value projects currently? Is this a Miro template you would use? Or is this better suited in another

Miro examples in hybrid workshops

Hello, fellow Miro gurus. I’ve cited Miro articles (Hybrid Collaborating Field Guide) and used Miro as my go-to whiteboard example in a new book about hybrid facilitation, Hybrid Live Guide, on pages: 13, 17, 18, 25, 44, 50, 61, 86, 108, 109, 111, 113, 114, 115, and 126. The book is free to download and share: www.knowmium.com/hybridHere is a specific example of using Miro on pages 108 and 109:There are times when all participants will benefit from collaborating on the same virtual tools. In our effort to create equality, have all hybrid participants use the same exact tool. Beyond equality is functionality and collaboration, both of which are supported when groups use the same virtual tools. Miro is my go-to virtual whiteboard. Getting both in-person and virtual participants on Miro allows them to contribute to the same activities in the same ways and even be in the same teams. The in-person participants don’t need to be on a virtual meeting platform either, just Miro.Pre-session, I s

Model Miro Academy?

I found myself very much enjoying the experience academy.miro.com offered to take courses and sign up for webinars. Is this a function that is offered through Miro? To create courses, host webinars, etc. that could be a substitute for using something like Thinkific or Udemy? Cheers,Tym

Optimizing Counseling Session Through Miro experience

Hi, my name is Heri Hermawan (from Indonesia). During the pandemic, my colleagues and me at Asa Berdaya Consultant (psychological safety design in Indonesia) tried to utilize miro as a medium to optimize the counseling process.The results of this exploration showed unexpected results. Clients become more open, creative, and enjoy the counseling process. On this occasion, I would like to share this experience with interested colleagues so that they can use miro as a co-creation process for themselves or with counselors in their respective countries. It can even be a product development for your respective organization. We continue to try to build and study how to create interaction between humans in digital media by paying attention to aspects of emotion and design.For more information about us bit.ly/tanya-asaberdaya (click to connect with us on whatsapp chat)

Is anyone creating a capability map in Miro? I would like to get in contact with you!

Our thoughts and ideas!Understanding where changes affect the organisation is key to a successful product or service development.We have created a method called the Milky Way, which combines product (value stream), capability (what we do), systems or tools (what we need to be able to do) and information in one map.3 min intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq__kDY5w1AIt requires that an organisation invest time in understanding what they are doing = created a map. We have created a Miroverse template for that:https://miro.com/miroverse/the-milky-way-enterprise-map/We have also created a Miro Tool to export the data to Airtable, where we further can create more details data for onboarding. And some things in Miro as Layers :-)https://www.milkyway.international/milky-way-toolNot for everyone. But if you invest the time, it will pay off. And yes, there is a book as well: https://www.amazon.com/Milky-Way-navigate-accelerate-change-ebook/dp/B09H61612Y/

Article: Taking back control of your Free Plan team

Throughout my nearly two years on the Community forum, there have multiple posts where someone’s Free Plan team has gotten out of control, e.g., multiple un-wanted team members added, junk boards causing important boards to be view-only due to the 3-editable board limit, or maybe there was only one Team Admin and that person has left the company (in which case, depending on the setup, no new members can be added).Here are a few scenarios and how to resolve them.Table of Contents​​​​​​​Delete unwanted Boards (or users!) Creating a new Team and migrate all boards/users to that team​​​​​​​Delete unwanted Boards (or users!)While only a board owner can delete the board they created, a Team Admin can delete that user, assign their content to themselves, and then delete the content. This approach will also work if, for example, the board owner set the board’s Team access to View only - delete the user and take control of the board. You can always add this user back if need be. Creating a new

Migrate the extension I developed to my new email

I have developed the Card Flip extension using my company email. Recently I have joined a new company and can’t administrate my extension anymore. I have to migrate to SDK 2.0 and improve the extension but it’s not possible since I’m not able to login with my old email anymore.Deploy a new version of the extension as a brand new one also is not a possibility since it’s already published at Miro Marketplace.Any ideas on how can I regain access to my extension?Thanks,Adilson

Cartographie empathique pour l'impact! Nouveau Modèle dans la Miroverse!

Je suis TELLEMENT fière ce matin 🙂,Mon premier modèle est publié dans la MiroverseLa cartographie empathique est un outil qui est utilisé en expérience utilisateurs, en processus de Design Thinking, etc.Chez Garrow&Evoy, nous utilisons cet outil empathique avec les organisations au début du parcours d'accompagnement en Impact et Clarté stratégique. Grâce à cet exercice, celles-ci peuvent réfléchir à l'effet de leurs actions, de leurs stratégies ou de leurs programmes en lien avec les besoins et le vécu des différentes parties prenantes (individuelles, organisationnelles) et ainsi amorcer la réflexion reliée aux impacts visés dans leur théorie de changement. J'étais personnellement tannée du visuel commun avec un "Pac-Man" au centre et 4 triangles.. J'avais envie de bonifier l'atelier en créant quelque chose de plus engageant et visuellement plus agréable qui permet de naviguer sur Miro parmi les différentes étapes de réflexions. P.-S. je sais, le modèle est anglais, toutefois, nou
