#82I wholeheartedly recommend WorkFlowy - https://workflowy.com For me, its focus on text and deep hierarchical breakdown, in combination with tagging is potent. You may need to figure out your own way to adapt to your PM style though. For example, some common tags I use are "#next", "#someday", "#2018-02-08" and such.
the landing page is horrible though. Literally no informations apart from "these guys use it"

#86Where it differs from most other card-based planners is:
-any number of custom properties per card
-powerful visualization (layout and color your cards automatically by their properties or connectivity)
-powerful filtering
-supports dependencies between cards (including support for PERT type project scheduling)
-store different combinations of layout, coloring and filtering as 'views' you can swap between with a mouse click
-highly customizable appearance
-runs locally on Windows and Mac (which makes it very responsive) but plays nicely with DropBox
