A mature one-time-purchase mind mapper with a rich set of layouts and support for non-linear connections. Valued for no subscription and fast performance. Main pain points are the absence of iCloud Drive and unreliable sync through third-party services. The select tool is awkward for bulk node selection.
Points forts : Support for non-linear connections (not just parent-child). Many layout options. Fast even on large maps. Available on iOS, macOS, and Windows with a shared file format. No monthly subscription.
Reproches : No native iCloud Drive support, only Dropbox and Google Drive. Sync between devices fails periodically. Selecting multiple nodes requires deselecting before each new one, which is frustrating for bulk formatting. Images are automatically compressed to low quality.
Pour qui : Writers, researchers, or students who need a serious mind map tool without a subscription and with cross-platform support.
