MindMup
About MindMup
MindMup is a web-based conceptual mapping application connected to Google Drive. The application is designed to capture user’s ideas instantly and creatively. The user can store the ideas in the cloud for a limited time, but can also save them to the Google Drive account or export them for long-term storage.
With MindMup, users can create and store mind maps for a range of purposes, such as document outlines, storyboards, and projects. Notes and attachments allow users to capture contextual information alongside their mind map, and comments can easily be converted into Markdown or Microsoft Word documents. The ability to add measures to nodes enables visualization of values including time, money, and effort for use when planning and budgeting. MindMup also supports the assignment of contextual statuses to nodes, allowing users to monitor the progress of projects with hierarchical tasks.
Users can collaborate on mind maps stored in MindMup through the concurrent editing functionality, which instantly updates maps with changes made by any contributor. Mind maps can be published directly to social media accounts, and MindMup Atlas automatically attaches contextual information and images to provide an engaging experience for audiences.
Key benefits of MindMup
• Concurrent editing is supported by MindMup Cloud storage, allowing multiple users to collaborate on mind maps with real-time updates.
• Icons and images can be added to mind maps to provide viewers with context, in addition to text, spreadsheets, and videos.
• The progress sidebar enables monitoring of hierarchical tasks through the assignment of contextual statuses to nodes on mind maps.
• Mind maps can be published to social media sites with a single click, and added to websites or blogs through an iframe.
• Contextual information and images are automatically added to mind maps by MindMup Atlas when shared on social media to provide audiences with engaging content.

My experience with mindmup was mindblowing. In the beginning I thought this is a very simple program but actually that simplicity has become a positive experience.
Pros
easy to use, I can conveniently send a link to my colleagues to watch.
You can change the colors of the text clouds. Support responds super fast and the mindmups are stored in your account so you can always access them.
Cons
I miss something like a straightline 'mindmap'. With the straightlines I want to indicate goals.

The ability to provide MindMaps easily to customers to under processes, and then to modify those on the fly.
Pros
The ability to access it anywhere, the ability to share your maps with colleagues, the ability to manage the Teams contributions and you can work on a map together.
Cons
The logging-in process was a little tedious in terms of you must log in each time and its not connected to O365 so there is no SSO available.

MindMup is great if you just need to do "mindmapping", which is its primary goal. Now if you want to present it in a board meeting, or if you are really picky and want to be following trends in terms of "visual appeal", we can say UX/UI is not hitting points.
Pros
It is super, like SO easy to use. It's like creating a text document, with boxes and joining lines. It helps when you need some kind of visualization.
Cons
The visual part is crucial I believe when presenting or sharing information. It's very easy to use but I think the options people can use to make "design" are just not hitting points. It all end up looking very childish to me. If I want something that creates a "WOW" effect, I clearly won't go for this. It's good for "mindmapping" as it should though.

Was up and running really quickly once I got past a few learning curve issues. But at $25 for the year, was more function than I could hope for at that price.
Pros
It was pretty easy to figure out how to use. Very intuitive interface for the most part. I like that I can add notes & graphics & attachments to the nodes of my map. I serves many purposes for me.
Cons
There were a few functions that weren't as intuitive to use. A few more help videos or explanations would have helped in the learning curve. Also, still trying to figure out how to drag nodes to a different location to make them stick... Lastly, an integrated legend would be nice to document meanings of color for example.

I really enjoyed using Mindmup. I think it is overall the second-best mapping program on the market with Mindmeister being the first. This is because I am shallow and love the look and interface of Mindmeister more. At the end of the day, Mindmup has almost everything I could want in mapping software. It is just missing a bit of polish.
Pros
It allows you to begin mapping right away. You can change it up with the help of various features and the program has a lot of potential. I love that you can share and work with another individual along the way.
Cons
I wish the user interface was a bit more smooth and user friendly. It currently looks a little dated but perhaps not for business standards. I use it for creativity so I wish it was more creative looking in the design and finished product.
