ConceptDraw 7, MindMap 5
CS Odessa has announced updates for two of its most popular programs. ConceptDraw version 7.2, the newest version of the company's vector drawing and diagramming software package, has new extended user drawing capabilities and context sensitive help for any of the drawing tools selected for use. "Dynamic Help", which is a special "Inspector Pane," presents to users information about the drawing tools they are using. There are also improved HTML and Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) exports. ConceptDraw 7.2 is free for registered users of ConceptDraw 7.0 and 7.1. Owners of version 6.2 and earlier can upgrade for $150.
MindMap 5 for Mac, scheduled for shipment August 28, 2007, is the latest release of the software tool for organizing ideas and projects. It supports mind mapping, brainstorming, and personal productivity methodologies. Key changes in this version include a revised interface, visually enhanced mapping, and integration with Microsoft Office and Project compatible software. It also adds support for personal productivity methodologies, including "Getting Things Done" (GTD) by David Allen. Users may add, edit and track task information, priorities, and links in detailed project maps, or build a simple task and priority map to track progress. ConceptDraw MINDMAP 5 has a suggested retail price of $100 for Personal and $200 for Professional edition.
