The ‘pro’ version adds some nice additional functionality, including a ‘hand-drawn’ style of map, and more editing/formatting options that will appeal to sections of our member community who like to add visual interest to their maps. Overall, the free version of Edraw MindMapper is a very capable product, and may already eclipse some of the older and weaker desktop software products in the market. It may be reasonable to expect other popular formats to be included in the future if this initial set is anything to go by. We’re often surprised to see new mind mapping products launch without any ability to import existing mind map file formats, and it’s therefore encouraging and intelligent for Edraw to have this in place from the start.

Design and format options in Edraw MindMasterĪ sign that the company knows the essentials of the market that it’s getting into is the fact that Edraw MindMaster can import both MindManager and XMind software formats, and also export back to MindManager format.
