  • Could benefit from more shine and polish, but it has been used for some big projects and performs admirably!
  • Cool software!
  • Cool mind mapper project!
  • Easy to use and compatible with Mindmapper. Well worth a look
  • This is my first time to use Freemind and I immediately became satisfied. Please keep up the good work.
  • Check out the beta release 1.0.5.0 of the very popular Authoring program, Scrivener (See YouTube videos). About a week ago, I suggested that the author incorporate *.mm file handling into Scrivener to display mindmap files as hierarchical/chapters, and it has come to pass, as if by magic. This is like dropping a 327 Chevy into a Miata... as far as a writer is concerned, and FreeMind/Scrivener is a hybrid with lots of potential. Check out Scrivener with *mm support at Scrivener's website (literatureandlatte) Beta testers are welcome and will help assure a better FM/Scrivener interface.
  • Stable, full of great features and lightweight. This software is highly recommended!
  • Thank you. It is very good application for planning and notes
  • I have been using mind mapping software for years. This is simple, uncluttered and very helpful. What I would like to see either as a function or a script (I'm sorry, I am no dev) is the ability to export specific nodes (e.g. ones with a certain icon on them) to a to do list such as Astrid or even perhaps Evernote. Anyone know if this has been/can be done?
  • A FUN and nicely flexible program! Could benefit from more shine and polish, but it has been used for some big projects and performs admirably!
  • I really like this product.
  • Thank you! Really like this programm. Don't have any complains!
  • Thanks for sharing!
  • Perfect tool, very promissing.
  • that's a great tool i was looking for forever.
  • Advertising this as a mind-mapping software is misleading. It is a good outlining tool, with a single central topic and infinite subsidiaries, but if you want to map actual thought processes, with multiple independent or interrelated key concepts, where subsidiaries fall under multiple categories in a way that looks more like a spider-web and less like an essay outline, then this software is incomplete.

    Yes, there is Freeplane (a fork of FreeMind) and there is XMind. However, existence of competition would not alone make a product rate at one star unless it has some specific defects or disadvantages that earn such a poor rating. The alternatives, whether mind mapping or other, are listed at https://freemind.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Alternatives_to_FreeMind.
  • Very easy to use and works fine.
  • thanks for this great software. it saves me so much time.
