I'm looking for a list of mind-map/brainstorming software that are easy to use, intuitive and practically applicable across a wide range of projects.

Thus far I have been using IHMC CmapTools software, which is pretty good in most cases but not quite right for some. I'm looking for alternative programs similar to this, that may be better suited to other projects.

Please suggest some brainstorming and mind-mapping software that you have found useful, and if you wish to, give a brief description of what makes it useful.

Preferably open-source and Windows compatible, though this list is for everyone so feel free to suggest software for other operating systems, and include paid software if it's suitable.

I will suggest taking a look at www.wisemapping.com. It's a web app for mindmap software collaboration. You can use the cloud version or install it locally.

By using the term 'Concept Mapping Software' I found an awesome list on Wikipedia.

A few in particular that stand out to me on first viewing are:


Coggle - Appears to be a web app that allows collaboration on mindmaps across the internet
MindMup - Another web app that appears to be very easy to use
Visual Understanding Environment - A desktop app that looks very graphical
XMind - Another interesting looking desktop app


These are all free! I'm going to try out a few and improve my descriptions if I can.
