Amazing, Easy to use and quite fan 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. Grate shout out to Jane Selishcheva for being so patient and helpful. Recommended!

Conseiller pédagonumérique Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 4/1/2022 "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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is IOctopus solving and how is that benefiting you? Easy to generate a writing plan and organize the ideas of a text. I can easily export the map in text format. I use it to create a presentation plan when the idea is not clear in my head. I would have liked to test the teamwork feature but it is not possible with the free version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Text editor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/2/2021 "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. What problems is IOctopus solving and how is that benefiting you? I primarily use octopus for planning my work and for collaboration. It also helps me a lot with complex tasks, when I need to see the whole picture of small things and to choose the main thing and think about what to do next. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
