Scapple Reviews & Product Details

Being an ESL teacher, my focus is on using the valuable time I have on creating helpful lessons for my students. What I like about Scapple is that its layout is simple and I can easyily put my thoughts anywhere on the canvas without too many restrictions. This is great because it allows my creativity to flow more naturally when I'm brainstorming new lessons for my students, which makes the whole process more enjoyable.

It lacks some of the more advanced formatting options. This is a minor issue for me, though, because it is also the lack of these features that allows me to focus more on brainstorming - I can always worry about formatting afterwards when I have a solid outline of my ESL lessons.

Scapple has a visual compartmentalization and free approach that adapts to the way I process information. I don't spend a lot of time searching for features when building my idea maps because I can use the keyboard shortcuts and its large set of shape tools to speedup navigation; plus it's easy to incorporate text documents just by dragging and dropping and editing them within the map itself.

So far Scapple has had no crashes or difficulties when exporting or saving maps so I would say it offers technical reliability and stability true to its original purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The abilities to easily create multiple unconnected bubbles have also been beneficial to my ideas, especially while using Scapple. It provides me with an easy way of capturing an idea as well as making a thought-provoking way of approaching at the idea. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Downsides of Scapple include the program’s minimal formatting features, which can make it challenging to organize and develop ideas. This can make documents appear cluttered and unstructured when writing tasks entail more organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that it is very simple, it is easy and very light. In addition, in a good platform for novice users and can be installed on Windows and Mac OS and this is a great advantage. With this product we can create labels in a few seconds and I love this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that it does not have a totally free version, it only allows you a free version for 30 days and this is a disadvantage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
