KnowledgeBase Builder

Great design, Very decent user interface. Smooth navigation. What I like most is the visualization of tags, notes, and pop-up description on the nodes. This should be the standard of application if Microsoft wants more users to use modern app in Win8. Great work, developers.

Ok, I've read the first review and bought it anyway because the screen shots looked cool. It takes a little time to figure it out, but you can create unlimited items with unlimited relationships. You can mark each relationship and each item and, unlike so many mindmapping apps, you can link any item to any other item by going to "new relationship" and selecting that item from the list. At first I got scared when I thought that some of my project items disappeared, but they reappeared when I zoomed in. I think I went to "navigate to items." This prevents your project map from being too cluttered. The app is amazing. You just need to spend some time playing around with it (i.e. building new and reverse relationship, navigating to items from a control panel, saving it. etc), but it took me about 5 minutes to figure out how everything works. Best tool for planning ridiculously large projects, which is what I needed and this is the ONLY app that could do what I wanted. Five stars!!!

Very easy to get started doing a basic map. Read the developers website for additional tools that may not be readily obvious.

KnowledgeBase Builder is great. I hate all things linear. This app lets me mind map my to do list.

Wired but simple. Little traditional documentation beside some example videos, but with a few minutes of experimentation along with the videos, you will be making mind maps easily. Doesn't get in the way like Visio and other more general software. For my purposes (personal GTD, project structure and management, it's quite helpful. And so very easy to use and powerful. Selection-dependent Item and relation category filters are so easy to use it's funny. And the highlighter auto node creation is astonishing. A useful range of import and export options too. And there is a free desktop version.

After installing KnowledgeBase Builder, I was initially excited and spent a number of hours working on a chapter for my finance class; however, the next morning when I tried to access that file from my SkyDrive, the data was gone. Apparently I had not pressed the save button. One would think there might be an autosave feature that would have bailed me out of that mess. No warning appeared telling me that I might lose my data. And, so, the program is a bit unforgiving. Also, I lost data while I was building my map: each time I would add a new item, it would transfer my notes from the last item along with it. But, when I deleted the notes, it removed them from the previous item, as well. Some trial-and-error allowed me to figure some of it out, but it was really frustrating. I like the idea of this program and, so I recommend it because of its price as a nice way to get an intro to the genre of mind-mapping software.

I like using this app I have a ton of uses for it so far. Helping to separate and reorganize projects. I just tried the quiz aspect of the app and was disappointed by the memorize and quiz aspects. I typed in a lot of information mostly to learn to write code for software. I don't understand how the information is used for this part of the program and this was why I bought this app to help me memorize info. It be so helpful to include examples of how to use the memorizing and quiz tools so I can give you 5 stars for this great program. I need to know whats the best way to enter information to use this. A tutorial, examples, beter descriptions, something so we all know how to use this app better. Ways to breakdown information (ie. Name field: String; description field a string is used to tie objects together. category field: house hold items) something along that line so users will know how information can be entered that will improve performance of the quiz and memorizing tools. ty

A bit hard to work with. for ex: every time I push enter it saves the content and takes me out although I was looking to continue to write in a new row
