Coggle

Mind mapping application From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coggle is a freeware mind mapping web application. Coggle produces hierarchically structured documents, like a branching tree. This contrasts with other collaborative editors, like Google Docs, which provide either linear (text document), or tabular (spreadsheet) document formats.

Reception

Coggle was voted among the top-5 mind-mapping applications by the readers of Lifehacker in April 2013,[4] three months after the website was first registered.[5]

Coggle has had a strong reception among the education community, praised for its simplicity[6] and ease of use[7] compared to other mind-mapping software.

PC World has criticized the visually simple user-interface for hiding too many elements, making advanced feature discovery difficult.[8]
