ConceptDraw MINDMAP vs. Wondershare EdrawMax

Organising results of brainstorming session for threat and error management solutions is how we mostly use ConceptDraw MINDMAP. Another common use is for dynamic note taking while attending conferences or classes. It can also be used to prepare notes when giving classes. We also used it sometimes for accident investigation analysis, building diagrams of probable causes leading to the event.

• Flow charting
• Depict a complex process so its easily understood
• Its structure and organization are very similar to how mainstream apps work.
• Its huge and expandable feature set blows away all other apps
• I want the right tools because my time is precious. This is the right choice by far.

• Limited drawing tools with the free version
• initially seemed a bit fiddly to navigate
• the interface was a bit 'busy'

• One-click auto-export feature to a preferred format. Currently, you'd have to go through at least 3 steps to export)
• More ready-to-use Icon libraries
• API to adjust vector graphics
• AI augmentation to provide user input during complex diagramming

It is super easy to use because it works like the mainstream apps. Almost everything's familiar and easy to access

Support team is one of the best in ConceptDraw MINDMAP, the response was quick and solution for the problem is clear with best ticketing management. The right customer approach gives you hassle free interaction with support team.

Needed to contact the support team as I had lost license details. Their response was fast, professional and what's more, very helpful. All the needed data was sent to me and I was able to reinstall Wondershare EdrawMax again.

As we were already using PROJECT, it became obvious that ConceptDraw MINDMAP was the product to use. The integration between those two products is very convenient and useful. The fact that ConceptDraw MINDMAP solutions was usable on Mac OS was also a pre requisite for us. We did not use any other Mind Map software.

Obviously, Visio is considered the Gold standard, But you are locked into the MS ecosystem. Lucidchart felt less polished and cumbersome to use. ConceptDraw UI was a bit more cluttered and the learning curves were a bit step.

• More efficient brainstorming
