Older Version but Still Good: Mindjet MindManager Pro 7

Just because a program is a bit older and there is a newer version on the market does not necessarily mean that the old software program is completely outdated. New software versions are released quite periodically because it draws in new customers. There are some exceptions to this rule but those are usually found more in software programs that have been updated to fix bugs or other functions. Mind mapping software is continuously updated. Mindjet MindManager Pro 7 is a good example of an older version of a software that still holds its own in terms of functioning and use.

Mindjet MindManager 8 is a very new product on the market that is targeted towards faster, more updated computers. Mindjet MindManager Pro 7 is a little easier on older systems than 8. This is important because not everyone has upgraded to the Windows Vista operating system yet. Mindjet Pro 7 is compatible with Windows 2003 Server, XP Home Edition, XP Tablet PC Edition, Vista and XP Professional. That is definitely appealing because it means that more people can access and utilize the software.

Mindjet MindManager 7 is a unique software. It allows you to organize your thoughts and export those thoughts, once created into a mind map, into a variety of applications. One of the best features of this software program is the ability to work in a group setting. Many other mind mapping software programs on the market are more geared towards one on one work than group. And since many professionals are now being instructed on the benefits of mind mapping to creatively brainstorm ideas, the right software is instrumental in giving those thoughts an artistic medium to be conveyed. Users, on the most part, are very happy with the program and find that the user interface is extremely easy. That can make or break a program.

Mindjet MindManager Pro 7 is not a great early education learning tool for students. It is geared more towards professional use than it is a classroom setting where younger children are being taught the process of mind mapping. The price for the program is definitely much cheaper than the version 8 so that is something else that you should keep in mind. At $275.58 it is much cheaper.
