I switched to Yodlee about 8 months ago and like it much better. Slightly less intuitive, but the points and miles game isn't perfectly simple either. Big vouch for Yodlee from me.
Same here. Yodlee has better functionality than Mint, especially the ability to enter future transactions and and scheduled transactions, and then get a running balance - including future balance. That is a crucial feature for me, as an avowed manufactured spender, since I make payments on my credit cards several times a month, and I want to me able to see what my checking account balance will be next week if I make a large payment towards a credit card today.

However, Mint just offered support for Bluebird, which is nice. But again, without the ability to enter scheduled/future transactions, it's not useable enough.

I'm hoping Yodlee offers Bluebird support soon!
