    "tested free version. very good, except for export"

    December 20, 2010  |   By thamcore

    Version: XMIND 3.2.1

    Pros

    even the free version has most bells and whistles you'll ever need

    Cons

    export is extremely poor. when you export the map looses all its structure, no tabs, no indents, just a long list of all the items. It is so bad that I don't dare buying the paying version

    Summary

    Normally, if a like a free program, even if the paying version is not different from the free version, I pay or donate for it so that the makers can keep up their good work.

    But in the case of Xmind the export is so bad I would not dare buying the pro version.
    It is possible that exporting with the paying version is much better, but then Xmind is shooting in its own foot, by not giving the potential buyer a better idea of what the program really looks like.
    It is OK for me if Xmind keeps most exporting choices for the pro version, but their should be at least one that gives at least an impression of what it can do.

    I contacted XMIND.
    EXTREMELY POSITIVE POINT: their customer service is EXCELLENT and very FAST! This is so rare nowadays that I'd like to add a star for this.
    They offered me a one month trial of the PRO (= paying version).
    I tried it out.
    I can export the map perfectly now to pdf and jpg etc...
    However, when I want to export the content it puts it all in one huge list. The map looses all its structure, no tabs, no indents, just a long list of all the items.
    Since a mindmap's goal is to structure your ideas it is a pity that the structure is lost when you want to export the outline.

    conclusion:
    good program
    1. if you do not to export the content in an ordered way other than the map itself
    2. if you use it intensively enough to pay for a yearly subscription instead of buying the software
