Simulates a whiteboard where all the data is stored and all the ideas are managed. Includes support for graphics and various elements that help you create the best mind map for brainstorming. Supports drag-and-drop elements to arrange the data how you see fit.
Mindjet MindManager is a program designed to transform ideas into organized charts, thus improving the productivity level, either individually or inside a team.
The app can be installed with ease by any type of user and can be completed in less than a minute. Once it's done and you start the application, you get in touch with its carefully designed interface. The working area is very well organized and the buttons are nicely crafted. The app does, however, require a decent end-system in order to cope with the average consumption of system resources.
Its functionalities are centered around mind-mapping and consist of a rich canvas area, multiple customizable tools and various built-in templates. There is also the option to share large amounts of information with team members in order to achieve daily tasks easier. The projects can be exported either in Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Keynote or Pages. Also, it supports integration with macOS applications like Calendar, Reminder, or Contacts.
To summarize, Mindjet MindManager is an innovative solution for mapping ideas into charts. It embeds many useful features and has an intuitive user interface. Yet, it comes with a pretty high price tag.
