Overall Satisfaction with MindManager
We have used it for multiple use cases - the main one is to map information into defined "buckets" hierarchically organized. The best thing about the tool is its ability to add notes for the components of the map as well as its pdf export functionality. Awesome! The departments that I worked after did not have the tool so I tried using some other solutions unsuccessfully. None out there is as great as MindManager.

I’m not sure
- Saved time in tracking requirements
- Improved speed in accessing project related information in an organized manner
- Improved the quality of requirements gathering by showing visually appealing maps
We have collected requirements and documented them using the notes feature. We have organized functional specs dynamically and updated them as new specs were coming in, we have used it to structure the information in a way that is easy to digest and visualize.
- MURAL (formerly Mural.ly) and Microsoft Powerpoint
Mural mapping is more colorful and easy to flash but the notes are missing and that is a big one for me. Microsoft Powerpoint is just a baby... no noting, difficult to maneuver the "buckets".
