Flexibility matters

Mindmeister works very well to visualize networks. Maybe a 3D-version woud be nice too?

PROS

Very easy to use, mindmap automatically makes space for new items

CONS

missing option for cross-linking of items without an arrow no adaptation of design of item and subitems more detailed selection of subitems to be included into a slide

Reasons for switching to MindMeister

Used to be a great product. Now appalling

Dissapointed with a degraded product and lack of product management consideration to the customer base.

PROS

It USED to be a a great mindmapping. Fast, intuitive with all the essential featutes needed for mindmapping and brainstorming

CONS

Where to start? A year or so ago, Mindmeister upgraded their UI to a superficially 'modern' look but with inferior functionality and UX in every way. Cluttered, inconsistent, more friction in terms of usage. Unbelievable how a superb product has been ruined in such a thoughtless manner. After 10 years+ of usage I am looking at other options and using stuff like Notion where previously it would have been MM.
