"I use Mindmap & ConceptDraw VI to extract the essential information out of the official textbooks (approx. 8000 pages) while preparing to the tax & accounting exams in Germany. ConceptDraw VI is especially useful to copy and modify official textbook diagrams. Due to the fact that German tax laws are one of the most complex in the world and are changed rather weekly than monthly, the possibility to use software and to update your own mindmaps / draw diagrams comes in very handy." - Christian Neidl, a student

  "Thanks for your excellent software, I run a software development company specialising in web applications, we are using software for planning and documenting database designs, software logic flows, web site structure planning, and interface designs." - Angus Halliday, software development company

  "MindMap is a Great Tool! The MindMap is great while talking to clients (in person or over the phone). I can easily add, subtract and edit entries right on the spot. The clients love the fact I could email them a PDF or print a copy of the flowchart after the meeting." - Ellana Brown, graphic designer, Graphixs By Design Co.

  I find MindMap an invaluable tool to explore those relationships that my subconscious constructs. MindMap speeds up the process, much the same way that word processing speeds up my ability to write. I can explore ideas more completely than I could before, and it gives me a formalized set of tools to elaborate on my process. I don't have to create secondary metaphors for my relationships when using MindMap since the software has that ready made." - John Herrin, writer, Indianapolis, Indiana

  "I have used mindmapping with 10 to 18 year old students in high school and now with my college students. It has on average raised the grades by 30% and also helps students to concentrate on the major points. I fill in some of the mind map and the students complete the rest. This enables them to learn from my mindmap and begin to be able to make their own. Making their own is the goal because when you make your own mindmap from your own experiences you can recall lectures very easily." - Joy Young, a college teacher

  "The program is used at our special school in Surrey England, which is for boys aged 7-11years who have behaviour, emotional and social difficulties. We are attempting to use ConceptDraw MINDMAP as an alternative to writing so that our pupils can experience success without the feelings of failure that often accompany writing." - Paul Sanderson, a teacher

  "I am delighted to discover I can export Mindmap to my iPod. This is really helpful, and it will mean I can do my revision on the go! I started using ConceptDraw MINDMAP a couple of years ago when I was writing a book. The software helped me to plan out the content of the book, and summarise it in an easy to use format." - Fraser Dyer, a student

  "Best Mac MindMap software I've tried out! The only mindmapping software for the Mac that I've used where there has been an obvious effort to conform to Apple's human interface guidelines. Feels like a Mac app and any Mac user will find it intuitive and a pleasure to use." - Tracy Snell

  "I think it is a superb piece of software! It is the first piece of mindmap software I have tried on the Mac. I have just had a look at Novamind and it isnt as good. The idea of exporting to iPod is forward thinking."- Dom Cal

  "The product is very good and useful! The interface is easy to learn and use. I use the program mainly for brainstorming when I am preparing sermons for the church. Also to get an overview of complex issues that I am thinking about. It really helps that everything is visible on one page and I can create relationships between the different items." - Dirk M. Boersma, Pastor

  "Thank you for your amazing efficient and personal service! A big thank you for that! You say support and you mean it!" - Wibke Hott

  "I use regularly for planning and brain-storming. For example, sometimes I just don't know what I need to do in a particular situation. I will call up your program and just 'free-flow' and most of the time I get it answered. I use it for planning my gardening...my trip(s)...a cocktail party, etc. Their isn't much that I DON'T use it for!
As to your other questions about features and add/improve, at this juncture of my life I find it to be ok. Check with me say in six months and maybe then I might have a suggestion. I like the program, it works all the time and that is important to me." - Douglas Grendahl

  "You people are smart! It is as though this was written specifically for us, well done and thank you for letting us try out such a fabulous product. I have subscribed to your products because you clearly know your market. Due to the fact that we create most of our own software, we rarely come across anything useful (apart from the standard applications). CD MINDMAP is one of those rare programs.
MINDMAP is easily one of the best programs I have come across in the past 5 or 6 years - the other would be filemaker. This program is clever. It is very hard to re-create the work flow of the mind when you are using pen and paper and apply this flow to a computer, but somehow you have managed to keep this workflow going, the applications are endless, from problem solving(Management) to logistics and warehouse flow diagrams." - Andrew Wetten, the founder, Lift Off Distribution, Red Bull Energy Drink

  "It's amazing! I'm a person who believes in visual thinking (diagrams) and mindmapping, and this is my first time to find a program where I could use my laptop in playing with what I am thinking/planning. I found also that this program is good alternative for "microsoft works".I'm involved in a research as a master student, and here in university, we are always getting a training and being encouraged to use mindmapping in planning and organizing our researh proposal and so with this program, this is really a big help." - Santiago T. Pena, Jr., DVM Master of Tropical Veterinary Science (Candidate)

  "I appreciate strongly your ConceptDraw MINDMAP program. I really feel that it is extremely useful. It even fulfills a dream I had for more than 15 years, when I was working in university and also giving teaching courses for medical students.
I am using ConceptDraw MINDMAP for collecting ideas and data about my therapeutical work with patients. I feel that organizing these complex details in mindmaps helps me to memorize the material more easily and more structured.My thanks to the developers! Thank you very much, and best regards from Hannover to Odessa." - Eckhardt Gehde, M.D., psychoanalyst and psychiatrist

  "It is a great prog! I have used it before and I found it one of the very best I had ever had. I used it as a teacher for all my lectures and for class reinforcement lessons.

  "I have just started my own company, and have used the mind mapping tool to help me to define exactly what I am doing, and the services I am offering.

My thanks and congratulations to all the team!" - Jo Komisarczuk

  "I use MindMap to lay out many projects from books and workshops to jazz festivals and musical compositions. I also use it as a tool in my workshops for students to map their future guitar playing plans. It has helped on many levels creatively, financially and organizationally. I actually look forward to planing things using it which, for a chronic procrastinator, is a major step forward. Now if you can update it to do laundry and return phone calls we will be in business! Thanks for the great tools and great customer service." - Bruce Dunlap, Musician/ Executive Director - Open Arts Foundation

  "ConceptDraw MINDMAP is the perfect tool for the creation of wonderful, individual and truly useful mindmaps. As a teacher, I have used mindmapping to develop my courses and to plan my lessons;ConceptDraw MINDMAP has been very useful for this. I even used presenter to to show MindMap to my students.At work, MindMap helps me with organising, planning and presenting positions to my staff. Mindmapping is a wonderful tool for opening the capabilities of the mind and allowing natural relationships between notions to be expressed in a practical, flowing way that itself develops the entire process. It is non-confining and free-structured, just as thought is in the brain and can be molded to fit almost any situation. The use of mindmaps is an especially good way for students to review before tests." - Christer Hellberg, a teacher and an administrator at a health care facility
