Diagram, design, and deliver all from one workspace

Miro supports your entire workflow from discovery to delivery in one unified platform, eliminating tool-switching and workflow disruption. Microsoft's fragmented approach forces teams into basic functionality and clunky workarounds across multiple products, lacking the native capabilities and seamless integrations needed for efficient, aligned work. See how these critical use cases work in Miro:
Building PRDs and project briefs

Miro is AI-first

Miro's advanced AI and automation features accelerate every stage of your work, from brainstorming to technical diagramming. While Microsoft Visio and Whiteboard offer basic functionality, they lack the intelligent automation tools that help Miro users work more efficiently and reduce manual tasks.

Miro is more flexible

Miro's extensive integration ecosystem allows you to pull content from multiple tools across your tech stack into one unified workspace. In contrast, Microsoft Whiteboard and Visio are limited to Microsoft's own ecosystem, creating information silos and fragmenting your workflows across disconnected platforms.

“Prior to Miro, we really only used Microsoft 365 tools, which don't allow for collaboration in the same way. Miro is superior in it's ability to create powerful work places and visualizations.”

“Microsoft Whiteboard tool app available in Teams doesn't compare at all with Miro. So many functionalities are lacking. Miro is worth the price."

“I have tried draw.io, lucid chart, and Miro for drawing flow diagrams. The user experience of the Miro over the other products is really amazing and more user-friendly than both. The features of Miro are way better than the others. Easily shareable with multiple platforms and has plenty of shapes and features to use for project management. There are plenty of integrations.”
