Comments from those who selected MindManager as one of their Top 10 Tools in 2008

  • "If like me you need to capture and organise project related items or, you just need to capture and organise thoughts, projects or, scribbled plans this intuitive tool is for you. Commercial software." Jack Chapman
  • "One of my workhorses. It’s indispensable for anyone who thinks visually and needs to capture and organise their thoughts, notes, and plans. MindManager integrates very well with the Microsoft suite of products including Project, Word and PowerPoint. It also outputs in PDF and HTML. We have the free viewer on our corporate intranet so team members who don’t have MindManager can still view the native files."  Charles Jennings
  • "I use this to make notes of meetings and to map out the architecture of solutions I am designing for clients. Empowering and easy to use. There are no doubt free/open source alternatives, but this is what is on offer through my employer. If someone had told me 3 years ago that I would become a mindmapping-type, I would have laughed in their face, but, blow me down, I have - and I don't regret it for a moment! "  Karyn Romeis
  • "productive meetings"  Eric Daimler
  • "This has to be the best tool for personal productivity. It is also fundamental in project management tasks and processes. During meetings it is integral to brainstorming, creativity and minute-taking processes and is loved by each person in the company"  Rebecca Jones
  • "This tool has become  an excellent multi-object catcher, and is great for creating dashboards linking to disparate files. It works well with my tablet PC"  Patrick Mayfield
  • "I built the framework for my Master's thesis in Mind Manager. A powerful intermediary in developing ideas, concepts, and course design."  Michael Hanley
  • "I started to use it not long ago, and it’s a great mind mapping tool, that I am using for brainstorming and project management."  Juan Antonio Ortiz

Comments from those who selected MindManager as one of their Top 10 Tools in 2007

  • "Another one of those tools that is so well developed that I'm happy to spend money on it. Although FreeMind comes a very close second as an open source alternative. They both allow you to create, edit and publish Mind Maps. Where MindManager wins is its integration with other tools like Word, Outlook and MS Project. It also comes with a number of very usable HTML templates for publishing. You can, very quickly, produce a structured information resource with dozens of pages and a coherent navigation structure." Mark Berthelemy
  • " Our most important business tool. I use it to mindmap pretty much everything - research, interviews, analysis. Anyone that's worked with Elearnity will recognise this!"  David Wilson
  • "I use this to plan the structure of online learning resources. It's easy to move bits around and I can work on content at the same time. Sadly, not many of my clients "get" it, so I have to export to Word document when submitting structure and content for review."  Karyn Romeis
  • "I use MindManager 7 to create interactive mindmap diagrams.  I include interactive mindmaps in my online course materials.  The program is very inexpensive and is available at an educator’s discount.  Tech Support is outstanding.  While there are various free, open-source mindmap and diagramming software tools  available, I prefer MindManger.  It is stable and includes design features that the open-source tools do not include."  Rick Lillie
  • "Most feature rich, link-all-tools mind managing s/w, I use it as my dashboard."  Anol Bhattacharya
  • "One of my workhorses. It’s indispensable for anyone who thinks visually and needs to capture and organise their thoughts, notes, and plans.  MindManager integrates very well with the Microsoft suite of products including Project, Word, and PowerPoint.  It also outputs in PDF and HTML.  We have the free viewer on our corporate intranet so team members who don’t have MindManager can still view the native files."  Charles Jennings
  • "This where my brain lives – I draft and organise everything here and then export to any office application - fantastic"  Phil Green
  • "useful for ordering thoughts, ideas and projects"  Lisa Valentine
  • "Whenever I need an overview of a complex issue, I create a mindmap using the MindManager. Unfortunately MindManager it’s getting more and more complex, but it’s still one of my favourite tools."  Michael Prophet
  • "for my knowledge representation and I teach their use to teachers and students"  Gianni Marconato
  • "Cool tool with many data-related facilities to create data and other mindmaps." Seaghan Moriarty
