SimpleMind Pro - Mind Mapping 4+

Best MindMapping Software Around! THANK YOU

I’m a devoted and longtime mindmapper. I use them for everything.

For many years, I used MindMeister and loved it. I brought them dozens of customers as well… as I had all my private students and coworkers use it too. Then something changed. Their software stopped working well and their customer service plummeted. Hundreds of maps in, I had to find a replacement.

And THANK GOODNESS I found SimpleMind!

Sooooooo MUCH BETTER!

First of all… no subscription. I’d rather pay big once than monthly. And the cost isn’t even big.

Second, it runs locally… using the power of my computer, iPhone, or iPad… rather than running on browser. With all that power, it remains smooth like butter… never glitchy at all.

Also, it’s quite powerful. You can do lots to customize your maps and interconnections.

Also, maps save in your own personal cloud accounts so they aren’t owned by the company. MindMeister has all my maps and I have to pay a 6 month subscription just to get them.

The SimpleMind online tutorials are great and they are always adding new useful features.

Once you get used to it, the workflow is intuitive… but since there are so many features, I recommend spending some time in tutorials. Worth the effort.

Grateful to the developers.

Great job.

I already sending you lots of new customers and shall continue to do so.

Amor y Paz, TOA

Developer Response ,

Thank you!

I love it! But wish I could do organic mind mapping

It works great, it’s easy to add pictures and drawings, and it syncs well. One of the things I really like is that I can buy it rather than pay a subscription! I may be old school but I remember a time when we could buy software rather than rent it. I wish users would boycott apps that require subscriptions.

Here is my only problem with it. You can’t do organic mind mapping. Free style is close but it doesn’t allow the words to follow the lines like if you were drawing on pen and paper. Instead it uses the fishbone style. (If you don’t know what I mean see the book “Mind Mapping for Dummies")

Imindmap is the only one I can find that does organic mind mapping but they charge a ridiculous price for a subscription. Please update to allow organic mind mapping. Your app is already great but it would be the absolute best if we could do organic mind mapping on it!

Incredibly good mind mapping

I’ve been using mind maps as a way to research things for work for years. The problem has always been the flexibility of the tool. The software I’ve used in the past has been essentially graphical outlining. It worked, and allowed for some rearranging a grouping of content. But it was overall pretty difficult to move branches around.

SimpleMind gets it right! Long press on any node, and it highlights all of its subordinate nodes so you can drag and drop the whole thing on another branch. Easily drag out handles to create new nodes or connections between nodes. Wrap nodes in an expandable border. The software has so many excellent, well designed features l can’t list them all here. (No, I have no relationship with the developers. I’m just really this happy to have found this app.) Even better, the software is availble for both iPad and Mac, and they work seamlessly together.

Bravo, highly recommended.
