MindUp groups all the parts of a conversation in a comfortable visual map, and provides all the professional tools to manage it and lead it to a decision. MindUp makes conversation spaces available in any site of the host collaboration platform (SharePoint...), where people can efficiently exchange ideas, problems, opinions, proposals and solutions in a visual, structured and efficient way.
