"Easy to pick up and get ideas onto the page"
5/5
What do you like best about IOctopus?

The overall ease of use - they have made it really simple to get started with capturing thoughts and arranging them in an actionable way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IOctopus?

The biggest opportunity right now is around data exporting and portability. I would love to have easier ways to share robust mind maps without having to save a large image or get people to join the service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"10 out of 10! Amazing, Easy to use and quite fun to work with!"
5/5
What do you like best about IOctopus?

The smart search is out of this world.

I was looking for an io that will recognize the search results as I wanted: meaning if a bubble contains multiple matches to search, the result will show all of them, but count as one.

IOctopus is the only one that has this, besides, the navigation from one result to the next is so smooth, that you don't get dizzy after jumping from one to another.

The customer support team is so helpful, answering all the emails fast and giving all the information needed.

Great shout out to Jane Selishcheva for being so patient and helpful.

Recommended! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"For an organic mind map!!!"
5/5
What do you like best about IOctopus?

I discovered iOctopus a few months ago and I finally found a digital mind mapping tool that develops in an organic form. In my opinion, it is the best representation of the development of an idea. Very few tools are able to do it as well as iOctopus.

The icon bank and image import options are easy to use. The icons greatly facilitate memory recall.

Finally, it is easy to retrieve a writing plan directly from the mind map by simply copying and pasting the central theme. It's magical! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IOctopus?

I would have liked the free version to allow the use of all tools - even if it means limiting the number of cards to create. Add the possibility to group similar themes in a frame (cloud - bubble). Allow modifying the thickness of the branches. Allow activating or deactivating the automatic organization of the branches. Let me decide the placement of the branches.

"Mindmapping without hassles"
4/5
What do you like best about IOctopus?

One of the important features for me was to share mindmaps with my team and exchange updates accordingly. This tool lets me do that without any hassles. The visualization of the whole idea is pretty good; I can clearly see the relationship between different branches and move forward accordingly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IOctopus?

There are not a lot of features offered yet; there is no file finding support or API support. Cannot place a branch as it is; need to connect it at all times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integration with other products, there are a lot of different product which can be integrated with this one but there is no such support available Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Finally a nice way to mindmapping!"
5/5
What do you like best about IOctopus?

I like the fact that I found a nice-looking program, the others I tried were ugly and I just couldn't use them for a long time. It's also good for me that it's an online service and I can show my maps to friends and collaborators without having to install the program on my computer first. And if I have to change computer, I can easily continue my work without being distracted by recovery and other things, you know. The current functionality is generally satisfactory to me, and I'm even glad that there are not many functions because usually mind mapping programs are cluttered with buttons, which I get lost in. In general, for those who like me like minimalism is a great solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IOctopus?

I can't stick a branch anywhere, like away from the others. They align left and right. This is not critical for me because it makes the map look neater in the end. I want to have that option as well :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
