Upon first use MindManager may seem a bit daunting, there are a lot of features to get your head around and some can be hard to use.

Brain Storming for Pros

5,0 4 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: You wouldn't believe me if I told you that every big project in our organization starts as a mind map, and Mind Manager works best for us. But mind mapping is only the beginning, with its new templates including Kanban boards, timelines and process mapping, your main idea just keeps on growing.

Pluspunten:

I've tried many mind mapping softwares but no one is as simpler as Mind Manager. The main problem I've found is the correct organization of ideas (and reorganizing them as you go along), but navegation and idea organization is quite simple and intuitive. The ability to export your mind mapping to Office apps like Excel and Powerpoint make report making a simpler and faster process.

Minpunten:

With the years its development has made Mind Manager a lot faster and intuitive. It would be great if selecting items and copying them into other apps would give you the option to paste as text, image, or even vector.

Kanban and Mind Manager

4,0 5 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: As a task manager it is awesome and also helps in ideation sessions.

Pluspunten:

The functionality is incredible. If I have an idea, it has a function or feature to help me realize that idea. From kanban boards to integrating with Kira (through a third party integration tool).

Minpunten:

It feels a little dated and you can't scroll using the work space this means having to use the scroll bar constantly. Using the mouse wheel to zoom would also be useful.

Organize Your Mind to Control Your Brainstorming

3,0 5 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Structured Brainstorming is key for engineering work, this tool allows you to do that.

Pluspunten:

This allows you to make brainstorming more organized and structured. Creating linkages and flows allows you to see interactions as well.

Minpunten:

This directs you to do brainstorming too much sctructured and sometimes you lost in the charts etc as creating charts etc not easy and you are losing motivation to use.

About MindManager

5,0 3 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Overall super positive as everything seems to work.

Pluspunten:

I was fortunate enough to have installed MindManager on my workstation. Initially the idea was to use it for Flow Charts as I dislike using Visio and wanted an alternative. I don't regret my decision. Mind Manager is fairly intuitive, the design is clean with large icons (the layout in Visio was one of the reasons I wanted to try something else). I also like the fact that it integrates with Microsoft tools such as Teams and Outlook.

Minpunten:

I don't think that I've used it enough to uncover any particular issues. The only problem I had was learning how to use it quickly enough and that was helped by the tutorials which can be accessed within MindManager itself.

Instant ROI for the Mercedes Benz of Mind Mapping Tools

5,0 4 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Education, facilitation, planning, team management, and sharing of meeting results/next steps.

Pluspunten:

The look is great and the integration with Microsoft couldn't be better. MindManager 21 even integrates with MS Teams (beyond the already tight integration with the other MS Office tools)! This tool has been something I have used for 20+ years, every version, and it has helped me tremendously for any planning, facilitation, or management project. I always recommend it highest in terms of a Mind Mapping tool.

Minpunten:

I think the Cloud channel and synchronous collaboration possibilities there need to be much better explained. Plus, live help on the MindManager site would be a big plus, as I often have questions and it can sometimes be hard to connect with them. Finally, their invoicing system is terrible and must be fundamentally upgraded.

Jumbled ideas? No need to worry anymore!

5,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Mindmanager is essential for me. It helps me to explore ideas before writing it as scientific journals or before preparing the idea for a classroom seminar.

Pluspunten:

Have you ever felt that you have lots of great ideas but they are too tangled? That instead of feeling excitement on delivering these ideas, you are feeling overwhelmed instead? Well, fear no more! Mindmanager is there for you to help with this issue! Mindmanager allows users to create a mind map of an idea. It is very easy to use and has a simple, smooth user interface which allows users to straight away delve into the business: creating pathways to explore and express their ideas. Mindmanager allows users to add icons or change colours to boxes, making it easier for users to highlight certain parts of ideas. It also allows drag-and-drop to organise ideas collected through brainstorming sessions.You can also tag ideas and present them collectively in tag view. The best part is that you can convert your mind map into presentation slides, making it easier for you to communicate your ideas to wider audience.

Minpunten:

Mindmanager is a commercial application, which requires users to pay. You can use the free, 30-days trial version to test whether the application suits your need before paying the price of the application.

Far more expensive than it needs to be

5,0 3 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: It's a great planning tool but loads of the features are completely irrelevant for my needs. The one online training event I attended was so complex I left half way through. When the current version needs updating I'll be going to a rival offering better value.

Pluspunten:

Ease of import and export to and from Microsoft Word. Basics are easy to use (but there are cheaper ways of doing the basics!)

Minpunten:

It's more expensive than rivals. It nags me for upgrades even after paying hundreds of pounds for a licence. Although it's easy to publish a map so others can view it, if you want people to collaborate and edit the map you have to pay a significant additional licence.

The best knowledge manager and planner out there

5,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: MindManager is my preferred tool for tackling the day, and it's the first program I start each day, and the last I close before bedtime.

Pluspunten:

The ease and speed of entering and visualising my information. And the ease and speed of restructurering and making sense of my information.

Minpunten:

No sync of preferences, my (daily maps) panel, etc. between my computers (office and home).

MindManager - Get your muddled-up thoughts and visualize them

5,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: It was the whiteboard to our business plan when we started our comapny and had a great friend to map out what was in my mind inorder to visualize my growth strategy

Pluspunten:

The most intuitive piece of software I have used when tryingto map business ideas into an exectable action plan. Able to add files and hyperlinks easily. Share the document with users and even print the diagram in larger formats. Great for our SWOT analysis to visually understand where we stand.

Minpunten:

Takes a bit to get used to the many ways to annotate the diagram

The relationship between value and price speak of it

4,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: In my experience the use of the SW has made the work much easier, especially to make it more visual or for a presentation of a project

Pluspunten:

I love using MindManager for mental maps and individual or group brainstorms, it is exactly like drawing on a sheet of paper with a pencil, with the great advantage of having shapes and icons to add and make the work more visual and attractive. Organize ideas in a clean way. It is relatively easy to use.

Minpunten:

Privative tool, only for windows, I have not been able to update the version since I can not pay for it, the cost is high. There are functions that I still do not learn to use and there is not enough documentation or forums in my opinion.

Kreativität und Struktur in einer Software perfekt vereint

5,0 3 maanden geleden

Opmerkingen: Ich setze die Software vor allem für Trainingskonzepte, Darstellungen von Einflussfaktoren auf bestimmte Problematiken und Projektplanungen ein. Dabei kann man, egal ob man bei der Stoffsammlung oder bei der Strukturierung ist, jederzeit weitere Ideen einfügen, Reihenfolgen verändern und verschiedene Mindmaps sogar verknüpfen. Die Art der Darstellung auf einer Seite (A4 oder Präsentation) ermöglicht es, Konzepte bei Kollegen oder Kunden zu präsentieren, ohne dass irgendwo herumgeblättert werden muss. Bei vertieftem Informationsbedarf kann dann über verlinkte Dateien oder Webseiten darauf eingegangen werden. Der perfekte One-Pager.

Pluspunten:

Am besten gefällt mir die Kombination aus Intuition und Struktur. Man kann mit dieser Methode im ersten Schritt unstrukturiert Ideen sammeln, auch über einen längeren Zeitraum, und diese Ideen dann sortieren und in Konzepte umwandeln. Das funktioniert mit Trainingskonzepten genauso wie mit Projektplanungen, Urlaubsplanungen, etc.. Dazu kann man die Zweige der MindMap auch mit allen notwendigen Dateien, Bildern und Links verknüpfen, so dass relevante Daten immer sofort zur Hand sind.

Minpunten:

Eigentlich ist es nur der hohe Preis. Man muss aber sagen, dass keine andere MindMapping-Software diesen Umfang und diese Qualität bietet.

Long time and regular user

5,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Compelling collaboration tool; powerful think-things-through tool.

Pluspunten:

It's easy to use, with largely intuitive keystrokes, and offers a pretty wide range of situations it can work in. It's also got decent readers and translators to get it out to people who don't have the software. A lot of folks I've worked with have done the 30-day trial to allow us to collaborate, and that's been pretty successful. The company also has a robust user-supplied collection of templates and guides for using it for specialized things (like ad-campaign planning, project planning, org charts, etc.) It's a powerful visual communication tool that really shines when projecting notes or idea-development progress in front of a collaborative group.

Minpunten:

They have been promising the addition of flow-charting for a couple of years; it's still promised and it's something I would use just about every day if/when it's available.

Long time user - I like it a lot. It's fairly robust. They force you to pay for upgrades.

5,0 7 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: It's helped me organize, brainstorm and present in my business for many years. It's solid and dependable.

Pluspunten:

It gets used a lot! It's very intuitive and seems to not have wasted features you wouldn't use. It's quick and not bogged down at all. The maps look really sharp and professional so can be used on screen shares and look like a champ.

Minpunten:

Price and forced upgrade expenses if you want them. It's understandable to have paid upgrades every now and then. MindJet has always NOT had their client base truly in mind. Even back with their mobile app ... they were charging a monthly price for that when all we needed was to access our maps and be able to make minor adjustments. This company puts out a good product, but their view of your client base does not show that they have our best interest in mind, but rather siphon out all the cash they can get. Not a long term customer centric leadership in my experience.

Simply the best mind mapping tool

5,0 6 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I've been using Ming Manager for more then 10 years. I even convinced my former employer (bank) to use Mind Manager throughout the corporation. Many people liked it and use it in their daily work. I even used it for my personal task management. It's great to see all your agenda on 1 page :)

Pluspunten:

I like user-friendliness of MindManager. I've tried many mind mapping tools, both online and offline and I find MM simply the best. It is visually perfect, very intuitive and offers all features you might need. There are many template and add ons for MM, e.g. we used it for project planning (task management, brainstorming, project planning, work breakdown structure, etc.).

Minpunten:

Maybe only the price compared to many free tools, but considering you use it for work, I think it's worth to buy it. If your car deserves some added feature, why not your daily work?

It's a tool that I use very much in my daily work

5,0 7 jaar geleden

Pluspunten:

Creator of mental maps. Mindmanager is an excellent project manager, with which you can have all your ideas perfectly organized through mental maps. This program allows inserting information, exercising a species of brainstorms, in which you can explore resources and alternatives, manage all the information and organize them in maps to review your objectives in a visual way. It has an infinity of templates that we can adapt to be used by Social Workers. It really is a tool that I use very much in my daily work. with the management until the daily tasks. I recommend it.

Minpunten:

I have not found something negative to this tool, I love it, I use it daily for all my tasks, with it I have managed to organize all my work.

I love this software!

5,0 5 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I use MindManager daily for brainstorming sessions, meeting minutes, project planning, scheduling, etc. The ability to branch out from a single thought in as many directions as I want to go helps me to think about the topic rather than making an orderly list. Additionally, once everything is out there in the mindmap, it is easy to move things around to reorganize thoughts, add additional thoughts/ideas or sub-points, or put things in a specific order. I cannot imagine life without this application.

Pluspunten:

It is a non-linear way of representing thoughts, lists, brainstorms, etc. Because it is non-linear, the user can utilize more of the canvas to list out points, sub-points, sub-sub-points, etc.

Minpunten:

That's a tough one! I have heard that some people have a hard time moving branches where they want them because of the snap-to feature, but it has never really been much of a problem for me.

Great Project Mgmt and Visual Organization Tool

4,0 8 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Dashboard and organizing everything visually to make me 35% more efficient on my job.

Pluspunten:

- Mind Mapping - Brainstorming - Dashboard Design - Attachments - Import/Export to MS Office - Often called the "unknown" part of MS Office - ability to map out sharepoint site as a mind map - ability to connect to sharepoint site - ease of use to organize ANYTHING

Minpunten:

- new features are only on windows - company is windows-centric and not concerned with mac or linux - mac support is 2 or 3 versions behind - linux support is non-existent - online integration with task app is powerful, but not explained or shown enough

Power User

5,0 8 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I have used just about every version of MindManager since 2002. I have been a beta tester and a MindManager trainer. The latest version of the software is excellent with a large number of advanced features including HTML 5 export which allows maps to be opened in all web browsers without having the Mindjet application. Maps are navigable and in the same resolution as original. Other new features include a timeline map type and integration with many other apps through Zappier. Mindmanager is just one of many mind mapping applications and positions itself firmly in the business market with tight integration with MS Office and other business tools such as Sharepoint. It's market positioning makes it one of the more expensive Mind Mapping tools on the market but its rich feature set and ease of use makes up for the premium pricing. Similar levelMindMapping packages are iMindMap which is unique in its rich formatting capability that most closely follows Tony Buzzan's original Mind Mapping concepts and Mind Genius with a unique project focus.

Pluspunten:

Ease of use and high resolution of text, excellent integration with MS Office apps, Zappier integration possibilities, built in browser pane for fast context based research

Minpunten:

Some advanced features are hard to find in menu structure if you are unfamiliar

Excellent Brainstorming tool and Mind Manager is the easiest to use and most powerful tool yet

5,0 5 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: Excellent experience. It is a powerful mind mapping, brainstorming tool that I recommend to anyone who has some hard thinking to do.

Pluspunten:

This tool is very intuitive to use, meaning that I can worry only about brainstorming and not about layout.

Minpunten:

The filters are very powerful as they allow you to rapidly hide branches that don't meet your search criteria. I wish you could save your favourite filters instead of remaking them each time. I wish there was a more powerful app that allowed me to edit maps on mobile devices

MindManager is my program of choice!

5,0 4 jaar geleden

Opmerkingen: I have used Mind Manager since version Pro X5 (2004). I used it for school when I was a student and for work for both project planning and brainstorming. I had tried a free mind mapping program but did not like it as much as I liked Mind Manager.

Pluspunten:

MindManager is easy to use because the interface is like to Microsoft products. It is great for project planning and brainstorming. It was easy to use from the start.

Minpunten:

The cost is a downside because they update it frequently, and the upgrade cost is expensive.
