Coggle is a freeware mind-mapping web application. Like other mind-mapping software, Coggle produces hierarchically structured documents, like a branching tree. This contrasts with conventional collaborative editors, like Google Docs, which provide either linear (text document), or tabular (spreadsheet) document formats.
Features
Some of Coggle's notable features:[2]
Supported file formats
Coggle supports export to PNG image and vector PDF formats, and import from plain-text outlines. There is also support for importing or exporting to the common FreeMind file format.[2]
Reception
Coggle was voted amongst 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 amongst 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]
