Talk:List of concept mapping software

message: I think that we should separate free and commercial software, as it will help viewers distinguish between the different concept mapping software. Computerwiz908 21:44, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Freemind is not concept mapping tool, it is mindmapping tool. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.196.149.226 (talk • contribs) 20:57, May 24, 2007 (UTC) 
:If you're going to list mapping software, please make a clear distiction between concept mapping and mind mapping software.
Mind mapping: a single central concept gives way to multiple branches.
Concept mapping: different concepts linked together. 
:It is not possible in a mindmap to have 2 or more central concepts side by side. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.157.149.63 (talk • contribs) 13:59, June 16, 2007 (UTC)
I think this is an important point - but I am not sure that freemind should be removed, as mind mapping seems to be a tree-restricted subset of concept mapping.StephenDeGabrielle 22:32, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I have added the OS each one supports. I really think this should be implemented like the table at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Mind_Mapping_software  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Renich (talk • contribs) 22:33, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

message: I feel the link between Argument mapping and concept mapping is relevant and should probably be added in its own right. – StephenDeGabrielle 22:58, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Because of the overlap between concept and mind mapping software, both types should be included under different headings. Then each section should be subdivided into FOSS and Commercial solutions.Ryan (talk) 04:31, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

message: I'd like to suggest adding Buzan's iMindMap to the software list. Does anyone have any objections to this. It's a desktop application that provides organic Mind Mapping methods to create Maps for brainstorming, organising, creative thinking, project management and planning.Rhodri Harries (talk) 10:00, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

message: I am trying to figure out the rationale for removing both the Diagramming_software and Online_diagramming pages and merging them here? The software listed here should be  Mindmapping and concept mapping tools, and rightly so. But with the removal of the above mentioned pages, where does one include more general purpose diagramming tools like Creately, Gliffy and Visio?
