Matchware MindView is the software developed for organizing data and brainstorming ideas using mind-map.
Mindview is a very popular tool used in universities as it offers an easy way to create outline for written documents such as essays or research papers. The software could help student with improving reading and writing skills, note taking, designing and organizing websites, research papers, graduation projects and curriculum planning.
MindView comes with some different versions available for both Windows and Mac. Apart from the standard version, the Mindview Business includes several enhanced functions intended for professional users. However the Business edition is available only for Windows. The MindView Business Edition features some advanced features such as brainstorming project plan in a mind map, applying task information and resources, built-in Gantt chart and project timeline, integration to MS Project and tasks synchronization with Outlook. Users can also share mind map with remote team members or clients easily with the collaboration feature.
For educational purpose, the MindView Student Edition is enough for most students. You probably can’t see the link to purchase on the website because it is hidden. There are just 3 versions available on Matchware’s website, which are MindView 5 Business ($379), MindView 5 PC ($279) and MindView 4 Mac ($249).
The Student versions are now available for just $69 for standard editions and $139 for Business edition. You can purchase it though this link.
