Overall Satisfaction with MindManager

We mainly use MindManager to monitor the status of project documents and for the graphical networking of system architectures. We also display information about locations with SharePoint documents on a map.

Pros

  • Link to SharePoint.
  • Graphical representation of information.
  • SmartRules are the best way to support the visualisation.

Cons

  • The sorting is in some cases not provided.
  • It should be able to open a map from SharePoint without installing the MindManager App (many IT departments do not allow that).
  • Possibility to show documents linked from SharePoint and filter them which helps in Project Meetings.
  • Export to HTML.
  • Export to Excel from where further work can be done.
  • Make data available represented as if in a Wiki-page.
  • Knowledge Management
  • Meeting Management
  • Task and Project Management
  • Project Planning
The graphical representation of SharePoint documents, their dependency on each other, and the possibilities with SmarRules are very much used and helpful, especially during meetings where data can be found without having to search numerous SharePoint libraries. To keep it simple, we also use roll-up maps, which can be used in several other maps and scenarios.
We have not tested other tools.

Do you think MindManager delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with MindManager's feature set?

Yes

Did MindManager live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of MindManager go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy MindManager again?

Yes

All parts of project management fields offer a lot of possibilities with resource planning, costs etc. However, the graphical functions are something a little bit lacking; the nodes can not exactly be placed on a map, which is frustrating.
