I used my own MindMeister account because the company tools were too rigid and didn't have the capabilities to graphically model and illustrate complex dependencies and structures.
Pros
Easy to add new ideas
The automatic 'split into topics' function when pasting text from other sources
Easy to add Links to other maps and also to webpages etc.
Cons
Maybe the home view (my maps) could have a graphical representation
Would like a function to open my latest map
Would be nice to have the choise 'add new idea' by right clicking on a 'parent' idea.
Likelihood to Recommend
Well suited to give an overview of complex dependencies. Less suited for task management

I currently use MindMeister for my engineering skills improvements. I used it successfully during my preparation for one of the most difficult certification that I got so far, which was the PMP certification. I`ve tried many other mind-mapping programs but MindMeister is far the best. Every student and person that aims for improvement in their knowledge should give it a try. Definitely, it will work 100%.
Pros
Best user-friendly environment.
Automatically saving. Use of Googles Drive or local folder.
Interaction with Youtube during searching process.
Cons
Could have a kind of possibility for use the active recall methodology, with space repetition integrated.

Pros: General Studying. Anything that you may think is important.
