Mural Wins When Enterprise Meetings Matter
Mural
Mural wins in enterprises when the real product is not the canvas, but the meeting itself. In a 200 person planning session or a recurring executive workshop, the cost of confusion is far higher than the software bill. Mural is built to make a facilitator keep people on the same part of the board, force silent ideation before discussion, run voting, lock frameworks, and turn output into a repeatable ritual, which is why large accounts standardize it for high stakes coordination.

Mural’s product is tuned for guided sessions. Its core features include timers, private mode, summon, voting, and locks, and its templates map to enterprise rituals like retrospectives, quarterly planning, journey mapping, and executive alignment. That makes it easier to get the same kind of outcome across many teams, not just give people space to brainstorm.

Miro is much larger, with an estimated $665M ARR in 2024 versus Mural at $125M, and far more users, templates, and community content. That scale makes Miro the default choice when buyers want a flexible whiteboard for many teams. Mural stays relevant by optimizing for meetings where structure matters more than openness.

Large enterprises buy collaboration software differently from startups. They want admin controls, security, standard templates, and workflows that can be rolled out across departments. Mural’s enterprise base included more than 100 customers above $100K and seven above $1M as early as 2021, which shows the product already fit high value, high coordination use cases.
The next phase is a race to own recurring planning and decision workflows, not just digital whiteboarding. As AI handles clustering and summarization, the winner will be the tool that turns messy sessions into durable operating cadence across product, operations, and leadership teams. That keeps Mural’s edge tied to better facilitation and better post meeting synthesis, even as whiteboard features converge.
