"I used a competitor's product for some time, but I have been a convert to SMART Ideas 4.0 software since the SMART software seminar I attended. SMART Ideas software allows students to explore topics and subject areas while understanding the direct relationship of the previous level. The visual connections have been a great support to the special-education students."

"Administratively, we use SMART Ideas software to generate education plans, taking advantage of the map levels to go from general goals to specific performance measures and strategies. We like that the map levels are all linked through one document because this is the same way that we ask teachers to do their lessons."

"SMART Ideas concept-mapping software has provided me a great platform for conceptual mapping and analysis to clarify my own understanding before committing them to prose in scholarly articles or textbooks. The developers have also been remarkably responsive to user needs – a rarity in software development these days."

"SMART Ideas software has been positively received by several of the faculty at our university. They view the capability to create multilevel diagrams to be an invaluable tool for instruction and demonstration. In addition, SMART Ideas software offers a sophisticated set of clip-art images and cliplets that enable the creation of valuable visual diagrams for students with all types of learning approaches."
