"I plan and structure ideas to achieve extraordinary results – MindMup."

5/5

What do you like best about MindMup?

MindMup has enormous customization capabilities that encompass numerous ways to design and organize mind maps. Makes possible to incorporate contextual graphics and attach files to transform each map into a pedagogical dashboard. It provides the ease of having all my maps automatically stored in my account and the ease of using shortcuts to quickly edit and navigate the maps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MindMup?

The simplicity and minimalist essence of MindMup far from being a limitation acts as a catalyst to think, structure and share ideas and didactic routes in a clear way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MindMup solving and how is that benefiting you?

MindMup helps me to visualize, organize and facilitate the architecture of my training contents (inductions and itineraries in general), and of collective ideas. Offers the added bonus of being able to simultaneously edit and incorporate comments at different stages of the design and export the results quickly to PDF or presentations.

"Great Visualization Tool with LOTS of Applications"

5/5

What do you like best about MindMup?

Fairly intuitive to use. I'm a very visual person and I like that I can add color, icons & images to the mind map to further enhance the presentation. Also, at $25/year is it 1/10th the price of my last purchase of visualization software. I also like that I can share these maps with clients via printing or access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MindMup?

Layout control is a little less intuitive. It would be nice if there were a way to lock nodes or lines. The default usually works but there are a few cases where a little more control would be nice. A few more video tutorials would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MindMup solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use it to do project planning, outline coursework, and present concepts to clients. I'm sure there are other applications I have not yet discovered yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intutitive Software for an Enhanced Client Experience"

4.5/5

What do you like best about MindMup?

Templates can be created to use when doing client fact finds. Client fact finds can be saved online for later, and it's easy to pick up where I left off by opening an already started fact find back up at the next meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MindMup?

Shortcut keys aren't very intuitive; default color schemes could use a 20th century revision. More font choices would be nice. Also, more output customization, including branding, would be nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MindMup:

Don't hesitate to give it a shot - there's a free trial. After that, it's $2.99 per month - some of the cheapest software you can get for your business! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MindMup solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a financial advisor, getting to know my clients is pretty important. The best way to get to know them is by being very attentive throughout our conversations. For this reason, pen and paper note taking just doesn't cut it. I need something that will allow me to makes note from our conversation, no matter where it goes, and no matter what order in which it goes there. Mindmup allows me to do this. Using a pre-created template for developing a client profile, we're able to keep notes in an organized fashion, while listening actively. We're also able to have our clients follow along by sharing our screens with the conference room television, so they can see that we are hearing them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An excellent tool to digitize Mind Mapping! "

5/5

What do you like best about MindMup?

I am constantly encouraging my students to make mind maps as it is imperative for cognitive ability. However, a lot of them have gotten frustrated at times on how to structure the maps but MINDMUP solves this issue and I can embed it into our GOOGLE Classroom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MindMup?

There are some additionally features that are best used when you have the subscriptions and I would love if it were free so that I could encourage my students to continue to use it after they leave the district. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MindMup:

Make sure that you watch tutorials and ask for help so you can figure out to best make use of the product! It will only be as effective as you allow it to be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MindMup solving and how is that benefiting you?

It definitely saves the district having to buy an extensive amount of paper as students can not access this from a laptop or even their phones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple but powerful for Mind Map / node charts. Samples/tutorials lacking"

4.5/5

What do you like best about MindMup?

It was easy to get going since I already have Google Drive. I was able to choose using it Individually without enabling it for an entire Google Apps domain. It has an undo already mapped to Ctrl-Z. Dragging nodes around and onto each other intuitively attaches them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MindMup?

The "recommended" get started button attempted to install MindMup for our entire G Suite domain. End users may not have this issue, but G Suite admins should be aware of the security implications and vet the product appropriately. The process to add it as an Individual as a Google App is less intuitive but was not difficult. The app starts you out with no tutorial, quick start, introduction, just a blank new project as if you were an expert user. I could find no samples to open to play with in order to help learn the controls and GUI. The help and tutorials that are there, buried in the Help menu, "Tips and Tricks", are sparse and static. Clicking the link to see how to "Manage projects and tasks using the Progress sidebar", takes you to a long html page with a few pictures. You can figure it out, but there is no guided illustrated walk through, no step by step video, just a long documentation page reminiscent of linux man pages.

What problems is MindMup solving and how is that benefiting you?

We can use this product to create charts in node/child-node format, such as for projects, progress, organizational, etc. It is easy to implement without Windows installers and permissions. It integrates with Google Drive and supports single or multi-user collaboration. It can be used free or paid. The organizational price of $100/year all users included seems very reasonable and even cheap for large organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
