Miro is a member of our team, just like our human team members. We literally could not have done our work during the COVID-WFH season without Miro. It's allowed us to recreate most of the in-person ideation workshop experience, with some added, surprising...

As mentioned, I dislike their support services. They need to improve on post sales support a lot.

XMind is a great way to take notes, organize thoughts, and create presentations. It helps me think more clearly and creatively. Plus, it's super easy to use, even for beginners. Finally, it's affordable when compared to its competitors.

It is very difficult to arrange a large mind map in such a way that it isn't messy or confusing as to what links up where. The program won't also let me put things in an orderly fashion the way I wish to see them.
