ConceptDraw MINDMAP is proprietary mind mapping and brainstorming software developed by CS Odessa for Microsoft Windows and Apple macOS operating systems.

The mind mapping technology[1] of visual thinking was invented by Tony Buzan in the 1960s.[2] Along with the traditional practice of hand-drawn mind maps[3] there is a range of special mind mapping software, which is commonly used to create mind maps for purposes of business, project management and knowledge management.[4] The first version of ConceptDraw MINDMAP[5] was released in 2001. Since 2008 it has been a part of the ConceptDraw OFFICE[6] software package[7] for Windows and macOS platform.[8]

Cross-Platform Compatibility

ConceptDraw MINDMAP is cross-platform compatible when running on macOS and Windows operating systems: files created on a computer power by macOS can be opened and edited on a Windows computer, and vice versa.[9] The Developer's end-user license agreement allows for cross-platform installation with a single license.

Export/Import

Using a standard file format allows interchange of files between: mind maps, project files and diagrams.[10] ConceptDraw MINDMAP can import OPML files, text outlines, MS Project, MS Word[11] and MS PowerPoint files, along with some mind mapping formats,[12] such as MindManager, XMind and FreeMind. Export options include MS Project, MS Word, MS PowerPoint and MindManager as well, and also Adobe PDF, HTML, and a variety of graphics formats.[13] Through the set of plug-ins[14] ConceptDraw MINDMAP is compatible with Twitter[15] and Evernote[16] services. Since the release of version 9, it is also compatible with Outlook and OneNote from Microsoft.
