“As the mind map grows, the Map Navigator can be used to easily traverse the map.”

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Kerr Smith
Consultant in Architecture & Planning

What do you like best?

“I like the ability to capture ideas, some of which I don’t have at the start of any specific session with MindGenius, and I like the product’s ability to help me summarize non-fiction books and to do so such that I can clearly identify and remember their core messages and re-read them at any later time in just a few minutes.”

“I also like the fact that the software allows me and others to work together to create a “group-intelligence’ understanding of issues and produce better questions and better answers than any one of us could do… and especially I like its ability to capture the ideas and energy when we talk and brainstorm together rather than allowing those ideas to escape into the ether and be lost.”

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
“At the moment, I am writing a book about the toxins and deficiencies that can occur in workplaces and MindGenius has, over recent years, allowed me to produce succinct mapped summaries of a great many relevant books.”

“Now having loaded these maps into MindGenius Online, I can do a global search for key words, such as “Greed”, “Animosity”, and have it point me to the text that uses those words and could be relevant.”

“This speeds up my writing process and overcomes my poor memory and the brutal fact that it is hard to hold the essence of even one book in my skull.”

“So, the benefits include: Speed, an end to forgetfulness, Completeness – as it accesses passages of books that didn’t register first time round, helping me to appear to be cleverer and better informed than I actually am and helps me to avoid misquoting other people.”

What do you like best?

“What I like best about MindGenius is that this platform enhances our understanding and knowledge about visuals. The tool is good at connecting ideas and information by maps. Another aspect of MindGenius that I like is that the tool lets you manage my projects from how I want it from the beginning to the end when the outcomes are delivered. The platform has features that help you understand what the overall project goal and scope are. The most helpful part is that they schedule tasks, have check lists, and manage the project until it’s completed to the end.”

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

“One of the business problems that we solved within our healthcare system is how to efficiently complete applications with CMS. There are multiple moving parts to this application project and this tool has helped us project manage all of the different moving parts. The benefit by using MindGenius is that we are more organized, on task, and clear about what our project scope is.”

What do you like best?

“MindGenius has struck the right balance between complexity and practicality. They have a product which facilitates effective project management from project planning through to execution and project closure. MindGenius Online allows a Project Manager to co-operatively work through the more abstract planning and definition stages bringing structure to the project, generate a baseline schedule then allow management and tracking of project tasks and deliverables through easy to manage and maintain lists.”

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

“Most project management products provide complex tools which try to do everything. MindGenius has provided a pragmatic product that maintains easy to use drag and drop and menu driven interface.”

What do you like best?

“MindGenius has been demonstrated profitable for a ton of undertakings to do and frequently used to end up putting post-it notes all over yet since moving to this piece of programming the venture the executive’s highlights take into consideration me to sit and concoct a conclusive arrangement which I would then be able to impart to others on when various errands should be finished. Particularly when in the approach GSCE’s the point at which each second of time should be used well. Likewise, being a Mac client the capacity to get to the product through an internet browser implies I can work whenever without requiring my organizer and so forth to complete stuff.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

At first, we utilized MindGenius to catch and make organized web arrangements from gatherings. We utilized the note-taking, dismantling of contemplations, and re-development of brain guides to in a real sense make outlines and wireframes not long after gathering ends. At that point utilizing the guides to move straightforwardly to costing and undertaking plans was unfathomable.

“I love MindGenius Online. It is my favourite way of managing my work and that of my team. MindGenius Online allows me to keep everything together. It is integrated into my day-to-day work. It is vitally important. I can’t imagine managing workload any other way.”

“MindGenius Online provides an excellent platform to plan all our critical tasks across my team. It is vital that we thoroughly identify everything that needs to be done and make sure nothing is missed. The mapping element within MindGenius Online allows us to quickly and visually capture everything in detail. This helps everyone see what needs to done. We can also assign ownership and timescales, again vital for ensuring we plan well to deliver against tight deadlines.”

“The big one for me is the fact that MindGenius Online is cloud based and real-time. This is an important requirement for me and provides more efficiency for myself and the team to manage our workflow.”

“MindGenius Online naturally lends itself to collaboration, and works with us to create a live workspace that manages resources and deadlines and delivers a communication trail for the tasks for all to see. It’s now the only task management tool I use.”

“To help me achieve my goals, I need a platform that is highly collaborative, visible and flexible — to allow me to work with my team, clients and different departments to ensure I deliver on my goals. For this reason I chose MindGenius Online.”

“Although thought of as an analytical structured discipline, engineering at its very heart is driven by the need to solve problems — which by its very nature means it is creative. This for me is where MindGenius Online, as a tool for making this happen, gets the balance just right.”

“The online availability really comes into play. The planning and execution of the task workflow can be interrogated and updated by the team members wherever they are — by themselves onsite in their office, in a meeting environment either onsite or remotely — even via a mobile device.”

“As soon as I sit down in the morning my first port of call is my MindGenius Online home page. I start planning my daily work based on the priorities I have set in terms of deadlines, impact and difficulty. From here I can then view the other challenges I am involved in, and look at activity changes and targets my team has for the days and weeks ahead.”

“As every user has their own home page — which is specific to the challenges they are involved in — the same approach can be taken by a team member, who can use their home page to check for activity updates, react accordingly and deliver what is needed.”

“MindGenius Online is invaluable — my ‘go to’ tool for planning and running sessions with my clients. MindGenius Online has enabled a more focused and collaborative approach to meetings and coaching sessions.”

“MindGenius Online provides an excellent platform to plan a client meeting. It is an engaging way to thoroughly capture conversations, and record the conversations – ideas evolve as you build a map.”

“The ability to share maps and access MindGenius Online via the cloud is a particularly efficient way of working, with access to client knowledge and information on an “anywhere-anytime” basis.”

“Mind mapping helped to engage the staff at every level of the organisation. They could clearly see the plan take shape and could see their own contribution rather than feeling constrained and overwhelmed by the linear format of traditional project management tools.”

“The standout benefits of MindGenius Online for me are the opportunities for real-time collaborative working and the Dashboard interface. Being able to plan, adapt, manage, monitor and report within one project management tool allows project teams to get the optimum balance between project action and project admin.”

“In the past I had experience with other mind mapping tools, and also with linear planning tools such as Microsoft Project. But following a recommendation from a colleague, I discovered that MindGenius Online provided a clearer and more engaging approach to aid clarity of purpose and manage dynamic change right from the start.”

“MindGenius Online was invaluable in helping me to quickly collate and assimilate high volumes of information from three separate colleges to identify critical activities to meet strategic objectives and set milestones and deadlines.”

“Once you get into using MindGenius Online, you actually start to realise just how much time and stress it saves you. You don’t have to worry about everything at once and have the inner battles about what work to do when, because MindGenius Online makes it all very clear for you.”

“The biggest difference is the motivation it’s given me to make sure I’m on top of everything the university is throwing at me. Staying in complete control is a lot more achievable. I can have the satisfaction of staying in control and at the same time the enjoyment of experiencing university life in the full.”

“MindGenius Online really helped us gain momentum in our brainstorming. The friendly user interface and smooth information capture allowed us to gather, structure and prioritise what needed to be done and allowed us to quickly get on with it. This allowed us to save an invaluable amount of time and gave us real focus on what our next steps were.”

“Ideas being thrashed out and agreed in meetings were being captured and actioned properly for the first time. As additional ideas came to mind in the days that followed, we could add to the task list for immediate follow up, removing the delay of having to wait until the next meeting. The ability to collaborate on issues and workload in real time has been really useful because it helps us transfer knowledge across our workforce from any device at any time.”

“We can see a real opportunity for expanding on how we use it from a sales and marketing perspective. It will help us enhance customer experience, taking them on a journey from initial engagement through to onboarding and beyond. MindGenius Online has enabled the Tech Mobile team to be more focused and collaborative in project management.”

“In MindGenius Online, it’s simple for me take notes as the lecture is going on. I use the intended learning outcomes for each lecture as the template for my map, and then as the lecturer talks I can place the key statements linked in with the learning outcomes.”

“I have used mind maps to take notes in lectures since my first day at medical school. I initially started by using pen and paper. But often, like many unorganised students, I found that I would lose them, and get tea stains all over them. My other key issue, as doctors are known for, was my horrendous handwriting. Mind mapping on my computer resolved both of these issues.”

“The workload for medical students is renowned for being excessive, but MindGenius Online has proved invaluable. From taking my lecture notes, managing my studies for an exam, collating research, completing my dissertation and collaborating on group tasks, MindGenius Online has been able to handle it all. I even managed some time to have a social life.”
