I recently discovered a mind-mapping tool that redefines the limitations set by many tools before. Traditional mind-mapping tools limit you to simple shapes (circles, squares, and ovals) to represent your ideas but these may not enable you to share your ideas in the most effective way possible. Insert Sketchboard.io, a newer online tool that widens the horizons of what you can do in a mind map. With over 50 icons and an interface that is very similar to working on a sheet of paper, Sketchboard.io enables users to produce something in a familiar environment with a wide array of tools. If you cannot find an icon that accurately represents what you are describing, there is a freehand tool option to create one that is more suitable to your needs.
Additionally, the application enables you to collaborate with others on the same document, add unlimited items to the map and shift the separate items around as needed. Collaboration may take form as individuals in the same room or from different parts of the world. Users can connect with each other through Google Drive and they can all access their Sketchboard.io products from there. Sketchboard.io is a browser-based application that functions on all computer interfaces (Mac, Windows and Linux).
There are a variety of pricing options available and those can be found here: https://sketchboard.io/pricing
