Miro, the collaborative tool to draw Milky Way Enterprise Maps
We have created a Miro Board Template for you to quickly create a Milky Way Map together with colleagues, customers, and partners. It's a Template complete with instructions on how to use it.
Why Miro?
In times when collaboration is the key to success, we went out to search for the perfect tool. And we found it with Miro. Yes, there is GAP:s that need to be filled but overall it does what we need it to do. And from a collaboration point of view, there is just nothing better today.
