As well as the basic different “styles” there’s also a multitude of templates to choose from so that you can also create not just mind maps but progress charts and breakdown graphs, using the Gantt view, which are especially helpful in an office situation so that progress of jobs or projects can easily be shown visually for all employees to access and understand.
