Pros

Lucidchart is definitely one of the best diagramming software out there and it is very beginner friendly. This is shown in the fact that 99% of the Fortune 500 companies use LucidChart.
The cost of Lucid chart for the tools and benefits it provides can not be beat. It is an amazing inexpensive tool that helps my team visually document processes and make improvements.
This is super user-friendly and easy to use and share documents and flowcharts with your entire team. Just started using it with a vendor and quite impressed.

Pros

MindManager is very user friendly and ease of use. The software helps us to find creative and non obvious solutions.
It's quite easy to use, have good features and it's easy to install. I recommend checking it for mind mapping - better then paper.
Easy to use and great for brain storming. Great software and lots of customisation like the ability to add pictures and icons to maps.

Cons

The inability to select multiple objects and drag around as you would expect is annoying. The auto-resize when insert into documents and update is pathetic.
The object limit on the free version seems way too low. Sometimes it's hard to register a click on the right element, but no worse than any others.
The number of symbols was limited at first, but that seems to be increasing. Page layout can be confusing until you get used to how the product handles.

Cons

This directs you to do brainstorming too much sctructured and sometimes you lost in the charts etc as creating charts etc not easy and you are losing motivation to use.
I've just uninstalled it because it posts adverts on my laptop screen, which I find intrusive - and there is no way of turning them off. I consider my laptop screen private space.
It's integration into sharepoint has taken a step backward from SP2013 to SPonline/2016. Maps are no longer editable from a browser.
