Whimsical
It's extremely well-suited for rapid wire-framing of concepts, as product teams can quickly collaborate on any idea and create a visual blueprint of it. Whimsical could provide more intuitive feature prioritization templates. The current templates lack the necessary detail and could be further enhanced from a UI/UX standpoint.

  • It can be a little frustrating trying to line things up exactly right but that's probably more user error than anything

It's fairly intuitive, I rarely have any problems using the app. The layout is pretty user-friendly and easy to adapt to. There's a lot of tooltips to help with the various features and functions, so it's very easy to get self-help for the most part. Overally, I'm pretty happy and satisfied with the usage of Whimsical for mind-mapping.

I reached out to support, as I was interested in possibly investing in the organization, and they quickly and happily informed me they are a bootstrap organization and do not take on investors at this time. The swift response and information readily available for my consumption was extremely helpful and shows how solid the team behind it is.

Whimsical is so much easier and has a better interface, so I think it's more suited to our workflow if compared to other tools like Google Charts. I really love this tool and I'm looking to learn and use it even more, as it helps us optimize our time, planning, and delivering more efficiently.

Screenshot of Resource planner expanded, where you can see the availability of all your resources, and who is working on what project, how many hours, etcScreenshot of Resource planner collapsed, which gives you a very clear image of who is under allocated (orange), fully allocated (green) and over allocated (red). Having this view, a project manager can rearrange the allocations, so that all the resources can work a normal schedule.Screenshot of Resourcing dashboard is showing you the state of your business in one page, from resourcing information (availability, leave, tasks allocations) to financial information (revenue forecasted vs generate, invoices, expenses)Screenshot of Tasks list, where are listed all the tasks with statistics about the logged hours, and basic information about the status, project and resource assigned to the task.Screenshot of KanBan board for a project, with the statuses (columns) for each taskScreenshot of Gantt view, with tasks assigned and dependencies for each one
