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.

Pros

The integration in various software such as Notion is an added point that makes it a much better program. The interface is good, and all creative processes are fast, which greatly helps productivity.
I found this software so easy to use and you can create the most incredible mindmaps. I love all the wonderful additions where you can incorporate costings, web links and notes.
This was so easy to learn to use, and the help and opening tutorial were super straightforward.

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.

Cons

The problem is that nothing layouts out the connections the way we know them. I am creating the framework for our database for the future.
I had a problem to see them, I miss the ability to enlarge them or readjust them according to my needs.
So far I have not stumbled over things that bother me ... the only thing might be the need of an internet connection.
