Mindjet for Managing Projects


Productive projects start here.

What’s the best way to juggle the hundreds of tasks that make up a project, from finances and scheduling to cost control and deadlines? You could make endless to do lists and stock up on headache remedies. Or use Mindjet to capture information, organize your tasks, and communicate with team members. Mindjet lets you visualize and sort out the thousands of details that go into a project and, at the same time, stay focused on the big picture.

Imagine your next project...

  • Everyone is operating productively

    How many times have you run a project where team members arrived at a meeting unprepared or left unclear about next steps? Using Mindjet, you can communicate the project’s objectives to the team in a way that everyone can “get” both intellectually and visually, and update the plan quickly and easily, as needed.
    • Brainstorm a visual plan for the project that clarifies team roles and responsibilities.
    • Add details such as next steps, dates, notes, comments, and links to files to fill out the overall plan.
    • Connect roles to show how each individual’s contribution relates to the project’s objectives.

  • Costs are under control

    In the confusion of a million project details, it’s easy to overspend. Using Mindjet’s JCVGantt, a powerful add-on to the MindManager software, you can track the bottom-line cost of your projects at all times. Assign an hourly rate to each resource on your map and duration to each task. JCVGantt automatically calculates your fixed and variable costs. Make hypothetical changes to your resource allocation and immediately see how each change impacts the budget. Now you can easily factor in costs when making every decision.

  • Communication flows freely

    No need to copy and paste your project information into PowerPoint presentation. Just switch into MindManager’s presentation mode. Adapt the flow of the presentation to your audience, and capture comments directly into the presentation map (rather than transcribing your scribbles later).
    • Instantly switch from map view to outline view or a fully synchronized Gantt chart.
    • Export plans to Microsoft PowerPoint, Word or Project.
    • Edit Microsoft files without ever leaving your map.
    • Share your maps as interactive PDFs or print them as handouts.

  • Offsite team members join right in

    Mindjet Connect lets teams update their status in real time, share documents in secure online workspaces and collaborate via web conferencing.
    • Deliver presentations to teams using your shared desktop, collaborate via chat or on a virtual whiteboard.
    • Publish maps as interactive PDF files or post them online in websites or blogs.
    • Share your project status and dashboards with key stakeholders even if they don’t use Mindjet software.

  • Success is yours

    Project managers need to be both creative and highly organized—two qualities that are rarely found together in equal amounts. The cool thing about Mindjet software is that it lets both sides of your brain play nicely. Project Managers from every industry are using Mindjet software every day to enhance their creativity and stay organized. Here’s what some of them are saying about their Mindjet experiences.
