I’m always happy to pay for good software, I just don’t like paying through the nose. Support ‘infinite’ scale canvases - or rather, be not bound by “create new A3 mind map” style limits.I didn’t care if it also supported a cloud-based option, but I wanted to keep everything local.

The requirements I set out with were pretty loose: My new role has a lot more planning in it, and so after the first few weeks of endless bullet-point notes with crazy levels of indentation I decided it was time to look again at mind mapping - but this time, seeing if there was any software I could use to tackle it. I’d see examples of people using them for a variety of reasons - study, work, planning, etc., and then make a half-hearted stab at doing one but start to get bogged down in hesitency when drawing them on paper.

I’ve always been one of those people who has been a bit leery of mind maps.
