Yes, thanks, I did try it in the past. The underlying idea is good but I didn’t find it a usable software in the end. It feels like an abandoned beta.

Thanks, interesting… There is not all that much info on the website though (a single screenshot), which makes the price tag a bit off-putting. It seems similar to what Freeplane can do, which is free… At least TheBrain has got loads of videos and tutorials to help evaluate the software.

Not really sure about XMind. It is very intriguing and has features that make it unique, but for large mind maps it has not been stable for me (Windows 7 Pro). Apparently I am not alone as others have reported this on the XMind website. It may be Java related, but much larger mind maps are no problem with either FreePlane or TheBrain.

I’ve never used XMind long enough to run into these problems, but just like with MindGenius (which I’ve only just looked at on its website) and other business-orientated mind mappers, what puts me off is the interface. They just seem unnecessarily busy with colour and features. When I discovered Freemind, and then Freeplane, the minimalist interface was such a relief!
