MindManager is the most sophisticated tool I've been working with so far, but the most expensive one, as well. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User General Manager Chose MindManager The primary reason for the switch was that I needed a lighter, no-frills tool. I saved big time on the licensing cost. A major need was the cross-OS platform, and this tool works irrespective of MacOS and Windows. I could not have found a better tool. Lucidchart is the next … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Account Manager Chose MindManager The choice missing in the above is Lucidchart and Lucispark. These are powerful tools to brainstorm and map processes.

User Testimonials
	MindManager
Likelihood to Recommend	Alludo It is well suited for a quick prototype of product/development planning to show relationships amongst the APIs used. This helps developers understand the impact of the product changes and identifies the need to update integration components to avoid erroneous deployments. I have not personally experienced a less appropriate scenario at the moment. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Alludo Allows me to learn by organizing notes. Enables me to create and present strategic plans. Empowers me to present complex concepts in a different and straightforward way. Captivates my audience when I prepare and present a conference, a class, or a seminar in MindManager. Allows me to share mind maps in a variety of formats like JPG, PDF, and HTML. Incentivized Manu Mejías Founder. CEO. R&D. Engineering. Innovation. Read full review
Cons	Alludo There should be some more functionality in the Notes window, such as a "Paste Special " Icon in the notes area to maintain format control. Although I create many of my own Web export templates, an add-on for web export design would be great, as I regularly create Interactive Electronic Technical Publications (IETP) in HTML export format. The ability to sync Map shortcuts between devices would also be welcome. I use MM on three devices, and I have to add or amend the Map list individually. My maps are on OneDrive, so using them should not be that hard if they are cloud-based. Incentivized Shane Layt ILS Manager QTEC Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Alludo I feel the main issues of the old Mindjet seem to be gone with the Corel purchase. With the huge advance of sharing via browser HTML even 1 user can affect many. And, actually, using MM kind of forced my rigid brain to rethink how I categorize and classify information/projects. The idea of paying $69USD for an annual cost is more than fair and a great model for Corel/Mindjet to keep rolling out improvements! Incentivized Thomas Kleinschmidt, CIM(R) Manager, Private Client; CCO Read full review
Usability	Alludo MindManager is very intuitive. The user interface is not cluttered and the ribbon icons are easy to understand. Several excellent "how-to" videos are available on the MindManager site as well as on YouTube. MindManager starts quickly and the user interface is very responsive. Launching other programs from MindManager such as Excel is very fast and issue free. The browsing feature is lightning fast. The drag-and-drop capability is also very fast and reliable. Incentivized RG Robert Gates Cloud Architect Read full review
Reliability and Availability	Alludo We have had no issues with the application's availability Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Performance	Alludo The application is quick and responsive. We are able to produce mindmaps and reports with ease. The program is not complicated at all and integrates well with software and programs like Microsoft Outlook and Teams, which we truly appreciate. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	Alludo I have called technical support a few times. During the COVID Crisis, I called a few times repeatedly due to a rush request. The technical support guy called me back in minutes. He somehow knew that I had called repeatedly and wanted to make sure my issue was resolved immediately Incentivized Scott E. Miller Owner / President Read full review
Online Training	Alludo The videos are not well categorized...I had to do a bit of digging to get what I wanted and many videos on older versions. If Mindjet was to improve the titles used that would help. Incentivized Thomas Kleinschmidt, CIM(R) Manager, Private Client; CCO Read full review
Implementation Rating	Alludo You need a lot of time and training. Incentivized José M. Guerrero Consultant Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Alludo MindManager stands out for its wide range of export options, customization and how they have enriched the format over time. As a constantly evolving tool, and having tried others, I consider it superior for the abovementioned reasons. Its cross-platform nature has been decisive, and although there are many alternatives in the form of web applications or the like, MindManager presents itself as a more complete and robust option. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Scalability	Alludo A team can collaborate on the same project but cannot create a shared project file. It would be helpful for that feature to be added. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Alludo For a single person business presentation it is a plus. Project difficulty is well assessed using the map. Giving away a paper version of a map is a positive gesture. People like the map, the look, and what it says, and it may also be a way to promote MindManager to them. Keep the PDF or JPEG saving capabilities for small customers like me. It's important.
