CarbonFin is still a really good single pane outliner. And it has several ways to move data to other programs.

Likewise, SimpleMind and iThoughts are excellent mindmap programs, which also move data reliably.

As is so often the case, one’s satisfaction with software comes down to what one needs to do with it. My user cases are pretty narrow: I’m giving a talk (mind maps are best) or I’m writing something (I want outlining, collapsing, expanding, moving by section). SimpleMind is a good cross-platform tool, as is Xmind, for talks. For writing, markdown (org-mode or Editorial) does the trick.
