Mind-mapping software and apps are rapidly expanding in their features. There are even some that are free with high capabilities. They allow for real-time virtual collaboration, brainstorming and discussion; map revision by other users; whiteboard, free-form drawing during meetings or presentations; personal use on your cellphone; management of complex projects from the ground up, scheduling, etc.  They range from  simple-to-use to probably requires training to realize the program’s potential. A couple of the top-rated programs are free. Others range from $4.99/month on up depending upon the features. They’re easy to modify, update and are orderly in appearance. You can often upload your own images. Generally, you can download them as a PDF, if not in a number of other formats. Their features vary, which can limit the free-flowing nature of mind mapping. So, for example, one program might allow you to insert an arrow from one sub-category to another while another doesn’t offer this option. The ability to make those types of visual links is quite important in mind mapping.  Most don’t allow you to draw with anything other than your mouse. They can also take time to learn and be expensive. and handwriting enhances cognition and memory. Test the waters by creating mind maps in free software programs. This will give you a baseline idea of their capabilities. It will also help you determine if you think they’re useful enough to upgrade to those that aren’t free but offer more functions. Also read reviews online to see which programs people like for what types of issues. One program or app might be great for collaborating with co-workers but not very useful for keeping track of a project’s progress. Some free mind mapping software you can try includes Coggle, MindMapple, and NovaMind.
