TechEdology Reviews 200

Love it for brainstorming, planning and shaping a product.

Inspiration is a great way to get all of my thoughts down on paper, thoughts do not come logically and sometimes rather quite random, with this software you can just create a new branch for those thoughts, and keep adding new branches or bubbles at different times then when your ready they can be structured at a later date.

Easy to enter items, and reconstruction can be done as expected.

Great program along with strong support. Inspiration 10 can be used for many purposes.

This is my review. I explain what happened and why I'm happy with the product

I find it easier to use the inspiration mind maps as I cannot write notes out very well. Since using this software, I have had high scores in the 90's in my Tests which I am very please being as I am dyslexic and I enjoy making essay plans etc with it

Firstly, I began using Inspiration 6 long ago. From the beginning it was the program that I needed to get my thoughts organized. I gave my copy to a nurse while in the hospital and never saw her again.

So I got another disk copy, only to find that I couldn't use it on Windows 10.

This current copy has even more features and can be downloaded to 5 computers. That means a lot to me.

* Both my old version 7.5 and now version 10 freeze often on my Win7u box. Must save work often.
* When opening and closing the 'note' window, the animation slowly flashes multiple sized blank boxes. Intel 64b i7-3.4Ghz HW
* Syncing the arrow symbols with the outline writes 'right array' or 'left arrow' onto the diagram symbols when they had no text.
* Wish the text import feature could append the current outline.
* The app is still one of my favorite tools.

Terrific program ... Have used it for years in both an academic environment and a business environment. The program dazzles clients by illustrating and explaining often complicated information.

Hi,

I'm a 56 years old man who struggled all of his life to communicate ideas with the world. That is the burden of a gifted, ASD, ADD and Asperger brain.

But one day, everything became so clear when I started using Inspiration 7.0 (now at version 10). In about one hour, I was able to draft my first diagram! The learning curve is so simple and fast! Now 15 years later, I still use it and my kids too!

Being able to express ideas in concept map, mind map, outline and presentation with only one app help me focus to share knowledge with my co-workers and everybody in the world.

As an example, I was able to summarize three conferences on stress in a one page mind map. I can now share it with anyone who feel stressed and they can learn about how to cope with it in less than 7 minutes instead of attending 5 hours of conferences...

And if I need support from TechEd, they gladly respond to my emails. Over time, I tried many other softwares that were really good, but I always come back rapidly to Inspiration.

With Inspiration, I created simple web sites, wrote 3 books, studied complex knowledges, managed all my tasks from today to this year and even made simple games to be played right in the app!

Please, don't waste your time searching for better apps because no one beats Inspiration 10.

The programme is great for helping you put
Your ideas to paper. It’s great to start off essays when your struggling to construct them.
It’s pretty easy to use and you can convert your mind maps into a word document

I have used Inspiration for years. Many people use visio or microsoft products to plod through flowcharts, but with Inspiration I can do 10 times the work in half the time it takes them to do one. The new Inspiration 10 is a real step up and the pricing is reasonable. I use Inspiration to architect networks, manage projects, communicate responsibilities to staff and information to clients.

I would like to complement the technical staff for getting me up and going on inspiration, with their assistance the program has become very useful - Thanks Mike

VERY DIAPOINTED: I HAVE A PAID SUBSCRIPTION
THERE IS NO WAY TO ACTIVATE THE PRODUCT WITH OUT SEARCHING THE WEB TO ACTIVATE A NEW DOWN LOAD

TRAINING VIDEOS ARE IMPOSIBLE TO FIND
CAN'T OPEN THE PROGRAM, ONLY WAY IS TO OPEN AN EXISTING DOCUMENT IS TO SEARCH FOR SAVED DOCUMENTS - BUT THIS IS NOT A NEW DOCUMENT TEMPLAT ITS MY EXISTING DCOUMENT I CREATED

ONLY INSTSTRUCTION ARE FROM YOUR ADVERTISING PAGE.

I really like Inspiration but it would help to have templates to work from so EVERYTHING did not need to be built from scratch.

Love the simplicity of the menus where the features you need are easily at hand without selecting different tabs.
Love the easy transfer to Word or PowerPoint that doesn't create complicated over formatted documents.
Love the free style options of Diagram mode.

I guess I started using inspiration more than 10 years ago. I’ve tried so many other things, this one is so easy to keep coming back to it. Thank goodness you are continuing to serve clients and improve the product.

I am Japanese user.
I like to have Japanese version. I was a user of Inspiration, when it is only runs on the Mac. Since it is so powerful software to help to crystalize an idea, indispensable tool for my work.
I believe there are many Japanese funs for the Inspiration, please do consider to release Japanese version again.
I am looking forward to hearing a good news!
Thank you for your attention in this matter.
