What to check before you move a team onto Miro

An app a team lives in all day is the hardest kind of software to leave. These are the questions that matter more than the feature list.

What it costs per seat, in a year

At $10 per user per month, a team of ten is $1200 a year before a single add-on. Price the team you will have in a year, not the one you have today.

Which roles have to pay

Many plans charge full price for people who only need to read or approve. If light users need a seat, the real cost is the headline price times everyone, not times the core team.

Whether you can get your data out

Ask what a full export contains and in what format. An export that drops attachments, comments or history is not an export — it is a reason you will not leave.

What the move itself costs

Migration, retraining and the weeks of lower output are the real switching cost. Count them once when you adopt, because you pay them again if you change your mind.

These are the checks we apply across saas, in the same order, so two pages can be compared line for line.

ReviewCost analysis

How much does Miro really cost?

Our calculation from the vendor's published prices — not a figure the vendor advertises.

Pricing modelPer seat

The headline price is for one person. Adding people multiplies it, so a team of ten pays ten times the advertised figure. Plans are priced per paid member/seat; Starter and Business can be billed monthly or yearly (annual billing saves 20%); guests and visitors do not consume paid seats.

Team sizePer monthPer yearOver 3 yearsHow it is charged
1 person$10$120$360$10 per seat per month
5 people$50$600$1,800$10 per seat per month
10 people$100$1,200$3,600$10 per seat per month
50 people$500$6,000$18,000$10 per seat per month

Based on the Starter plan at $10 a month. Three years at the published annual price. No renewal increase is published.

What we could not establish
  • The vendor does not publish a renewal price, so three-year totals assume today's price holds.

Starter supports visitor editing, while Business expands external collaboration with unlimited guests. Business also includes SSO, advanced diagramming, AI Flows and Sidekicks, multi-workspace support, and Jira/Azure sync. Starter is suitable for small teams; Business is positioned for cross-departmental work.

What AI features does Miro include?
The Business tier includes guest access, SSO, Jira and Azure sync, and 50 AI credits per member; Enterprise plans include advanced security, SCIM, data residency, and 100 AI credits per member. AI features include Flows for process automation and Sidekicks for conversational co-creation.
Does Miro charge per user or per board?
Paid Starter and Business plans are priced per member, with prorated charges when members are added mid-cycle. Teams are charged per active user seat, not per board.
