Import/Export
« on: March 30, 2010, 04:11:31 am »
We are currently evaluating Novamind for use by a group of Project Managers. I have used Novamind Pro for a couple of months and I like it. However, the import/export feature seems to be a little limited. Is this a limitation of Pro? what additional functions do you get with Platinum?

Specifically:

1.) Can you import/export with excel? Esp with the numbering in place (want to do this as part of a WBS development.)

2.) Can you import/export with PM schedule tools? MS Project, FastTrack?

If these are not part of the current product is it on your roadmap?

Thanks

Gideon

We don't have import/export with Excel - quite frankly there has been little demand for this feature - we have only had about 5 requests for it in the last 7 years. And I'm not sure how you would best represent the hierarchical data of a Mind Map in the tabular format of a spreadsheet - they seem designed for totally different purposes. If there was significant demand for it, we could look into it.

MS Project import/export is a Platinum feature.

NovaMind 5 will have importers for FreeMind, Mind Manager, NovaMind 4, Opml, MS Project, Text and XMind, and exporters for Mind Manager, Opml, PowerPoint, MS Project, Text, and MS Word.

For the complete list of imports and exports of NovaMind 4, please see http://www.novamind.com/features
