Mindmap Software Suggestions

I use a Gantt chart maker alongside my mind mapping tool to track task timelines visually. It's been helpful for linking big-picture ideas from the mind map directly into scheduled steps. This helps me see how everything connects time-wise and breaks the project into chunks I can actually work on. Sometimes I even color-code tasks the same way in both to keep things clear.
 
i have explored many of the mind mapping programs and access them as a trainer/ assessor etc.
Personal fav is Mind View. It helps me because it looks like office and is straightforward with good features.
 
I will echo some the same recommendation from others for MindManager by MindJet. It's quite good and a piece of software that I tried out many years ago but didn't quite see how great it was until about a couple of years ago. It's definitely geared toward the business'y market but the old version and new version are all very good. I don't use a lot of the advanced features, however, I have been very happy with it and couldn't really function without it.

A personal favorite aspect is that it has an option to purchase a lifetime license for a major version, something I really appreciate in the age of everyone and their brother trying to gouge customers with unnecessary subscriptions.

I haven't tried or heard of MindView before now, and that also looks good too.

A few good options for anyone interested.

The perpetual license is very good. I still prefer Mind View 's simplicity and functionality with Dragon (another tool for productivity etc for me).
 
Another vote for MindNode (or MindNode Next the new version). It integrates nicely with OmniFocus and Things3 if you use either of those.
