LONDON, June 9, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

- New Initiative to Promote Networking and Best Practice Sharing Between Members

Mindjet(R) (http://www.mindjet.com/), the leading provider of software and web-based applications for visually organising and managing information and ideas, has today announced the launch of its Customer VIP Club (http://info.mindjet.com/EU_Customer_VIP_Club.html). A new offering to its 5 plus licensed users, the Customer VIP Club will be available to join from the 7th June 2011, and provides a platform for customers to share best practice and discuss business issues with other members. Members will receive benefits including monthly best-practice webinars, an exclusive online business forum, regional congress events, business bulletins and a Priviledge Pass, giving them first access to the latest product and business-related information concerning Mindjet's business solutions.

The Customer VIP Club is launched in response to significant customer demand for a platform to share information and network with others of a similar standing. Last year Mindjet saw a 42% increase in paid users in the UK; this initiative will provide customer input and feedback that will allow the company to continue aligning its products with changing and often unique needs of its customers. At a time when making informed business decisions frequently means efficiently handling a considerable amount information from a number of sources, visualisation software such as Mindjet's MindManager can offer a valuable and simple solution.

The club is free of charge to all organisations that have a license agreement with Mindjet and will support and enhance the recent launch of the Customer Success Program in the region.

Alan Whelan, Director Custom Contracts, Design and Delivery, BT comments: "A customer membership club from Mindjet will be of great value to us. It gives us a platform through which we can network, share best practice and discuss relevant business issues with like-minded people and we can learn from some of that fresh thinking to improve our own business processes at BT."

Chris Harman, Regional Vice President for Mindjet Northern Europe, Middle East and Africa, says: "We have been listening to our customers and it has become apparent that we needed to provide an environment in which they can share their innovative solutions, processes improvements and best practices for mutual benefit. For us the investment will mean that we can get even closer to our customers and continue to understand and serve their needs. We saw strong growth in the UK last year, as well as globally, and this success is a testimony to our dedication to MindManager users as well as a strong product suite. The Customer VIP Club will also help us to provide our customers with even better support and make sure they are aware of the business benefits we can provide to them."

2010 saw record success with sales growth of 28 per cent for Mindjet(R) UK and its increase in paid users of 42% between FY09 and FY10 helped bring the total users globally to nearly 1.8 million.
