Hi Miro,

 

How does Miro compare to Microsoft Teams? It seems like Miro has more brainstorming features.

They don’t compare.

@Victor Chen -

I’d agree with @Kevin Kinisky that this is a bit of an “apples to oranges” comparison.

MS Teams is superior when it comes to persistent chat, video conferencing and Office integration, but Miro beats it hands down when it comes to creative collaboration and visualization. There’s almost no type of team work which can’t be made immersive in a platform such as Miro.

If you had to pick a closer competitor for Miro, Mural would be the one to compare against.

@Victor Chen - If you are referring to Microsoft Whiteboard, which can commonly appear as a tab/option within Teams, MS Whiteboard is inferior to Miro, and to any other modern, dedicated online whiteboard platform.

MS Whiteboard is what MS Paint is to Adobe Photoshop.

Being that this is a Miro community board the responses are not surprising however to be a bit more quantifiable would be preferred.  The feeling of immersive collaboration is subjective. One might say because Teams Whiteboard has one interface the ties into persistent chat, email, file storage, wiki, task tracking, and other office features that it could be considered the more immersive environment.  Has their been a side-by-side feature comparison of Teams Whiteboarding & Miro? Both platforms allow for someone to setup templates so it would be good to see a template that demonstrates the functionality one side has and the other does not. I’m positive there are differences that are quantifiable.
