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.
Its authors promise that it will be " free forever" [1] although some features require a paid subscription.
Some of Coggle's notable features: [2]
- Real-time collaboration
- Sharing with organisations, individuals, or by private link
- View and copy previous versions
- Images
- Links
- Multiple root items
- Joining branches
- Comments on items
- Markdown text formatting
- LaTeX math support using MathJax [3]
- iOS support
- Android support
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]
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]
