    TiddlyMap vs Mindmup Comments
    Guest
    Positive
    0

    Even though this app is kind of hard to get the hang of, there are some screencast on youtube that helps a lot. Once you figure it out, you'll notice how cool and complete this tool is, and since you have the file saved on disk or virtual drives, you won't run in problems with freemium and no export policies for free users.
