Fraser N.: Hi, I'm Fraser. I'm founder of a marketing consultancy, and I'd give MindMeister five out of five. I looked at a number of different mind mapping softwares, because it is quite a busy market, and there were a number of options. I used options such as FreeMind and XMind and MindManager in their time, but none of them were as professional or as good quality or compatible across devices as MindMeister. The reason that I plunked for MindMeister in the end as my mind mapping software of choice is just simply the quality and professionalism of the output. The maps look good. You can edit them. You can change the styles, and it's just an all-around professional product. And mind mapping is a very important software for my line of business, where I'm showing how ideas and concepts work, that I didn't want to have the risk of using a free software that isn't supported properly and might not be developed as well over time. I found MindMeister very easy to get going with and get onboarded with. It's very intuitive, and like all the best products, it's also simple. It does what I need, and it does it very well. If you're looking at mind map software, I've no hesitation in saying go for it with MindMeister. There's always a danger of using the free options, and some of the other options in the market are more limited and also can be quite complex at the same time. So with that, I'd recommend MindMeister as the go-to mind mapping software.
