What is iMapping?

iMapping is a visual tool that helps knowledge workers manage large amounts of information in a clear and structured way.

Topics, projects and fields of work can be visually structured in depth, without ever loosing overview.

iMaps are virtual pin-boards that provide visual space for your notes, files and ideas, so that every little thing has its place and is found without effort.

In varied areas, the iMapping Tool is used in many different ways: Managers gain a bigger picture of strategies, goals and meetings. Project managers use iMapping, to maintain an overview in larger projects. Researchers collect results, relate sources and put arguments in perspective. Students use iMapping to visually refine their learning matter for better retention.

iMapping unites the hierarchical order of mind-maps and the network structure of concept maps with the simplicity of a pin-board. And it does so in a way that allows handling thousands of objects with ease.

iMapping is different. It is hard to describe in what category the program falls exactly. It certainly does not look like your classic hierarchical Mind-Map, neither is it as simple as your average brainstorming tool. iMapping somehow combines parts of both areas into one program and it does so in a new way. But this also means, that it has a bit of a learning curve to use it. While Mind-Maps and Brainstorming tools als usually quite intuitiv, iMapping takes a bit until your brain figures out how to use it. The video on the website offers a good introduction though and watching it is really worth it.

Pros

  • combines hierarchy and openness
  • everything on "one" page
  • Intuitiv once you get the hang of it
  • All types of information can be stored (images, files, links)

Cons

  • you have to learn how to use it a bit
  • items do not position themselves (overlapping has to be solved manually)
  • Expensive if you are not a student

    Freemind and all other mind-mapping tools only support mind maps, which are limited in structure and size.
