So many feature, so little time

Information Mapping and More

This software is no longer about simple mind mapping and brainstorming. It has moved to a whole new level, with Lay out goals, tasks, schedules, and strategic alternatives, information maps, outlines, Gantt charts, 2x2 analysis views, organisation charts, and indexed content lists.

Add Content and Context

Add multiple hyperlinks, attachments, notes, images, and spreadsheets to provide additional levels of details for your information map. Quickly drag and drop content to reorganise it and provide structure. Use icons, tags, topic shapes, callouts, boundaries, colors, topic sorting and numbering to provide additional context.

Create Ideas

Use an integrated brainstorming process to enhance the quality and quantity of ideas your team generates. Start the process by clearly defining the challenge you face using a set of challenge questions and images. Generate new ideas by using a set of words images and questions cards that spark innovative thinking. Finally, categorize, sort, and refine your ideas to quickly proceed to a defined action plan.

Analyze Alternatives

Make better decisions by prioritizing and categorizing your mapped topics using the 2x2 analysis charts. You simply drag and drop topics into the Analysis View. Standard charts include Cost vs. Opportunity, Urgent vs. Important, SWOT and others. Charts can be saved in MindManager or exported to Microsoft Excel.

Project and Task Management

Define projects by easily entering tasks and assigning key criteria, such as priority, assigned resource, duration and percent complete. The results can be viewed either as an information map or a Gantt chart with all of the key dependencies highlighted. Use task filters to highlight task due dates or other critical milestones. Take advantage of built-in templates for both strategic planning and project management available inside MindManager and through the Mindjet Online Gallery.

Information Map Presentations

Showcase your ideas and increase engagement using MindManager's automated presentation view and customizable slide shows. With MindManager's dynamic presentations, you'll easily tailor the level of details presented for each audience and capture critical feedback right in the presentation. You can also easily export slides to Microsoft PowerPoint.
