Download trial or free versions of Mimosa -

On this page you find two different versions of Mimosa Scheduling Software:

  • the trial version which provides you time-limited file saves (for 30 days) with full capacity and
  • the free version which has limited functionality and capacity but no time limits.

Neither of these versions contain the local context-sensitive help that is only provided with the commercial version of Mimosa.

Files created with these versions are fully compatible with the commercial version.

We hope these versions help you to learn all the possiblities of the commercial version of Mimosa Scheduling Software. When you are ready to purchase, please go to Purchase page, fill the form and send it.

All Mimosa versions, including the commercial version are by default installed in separate folders and they create automatically the subfolder "data" containing Mimosa sample files. If you later on like to uninstall these applications, select "Uninstall" from the created Mimosa menu selection. All Mimosa versions store files, web reports and used settings in "[User name]\Documents\Mimosa" folder, which is automatically created when the application is invoked.

  • Mimosa Trial Version -

    Mimosa Trial Version provides the full capacity and almost all functions of the commercial version of Mimosa Scheduling Software, and it allows you to save your files on disk for 30 days. It is intended to be used for your trial purposes with files, that cannot be fit into Mimosa Small School Edition. The files created with both of these versions are fully compatible with the commercial version.

    For instance, you might like to take a look at the attached sample file "sample_personalised_timetables.mfw" (in the data subfolder), containing individual and weekly timetables for 1000 students.

    Mimosa Small School Edition (Freeware) -

    Mimosa Small School Edition allows you to create, maintain and save up to 100 entries. It contains almost a subset of the functionality of the commercial version of Mimosa Scheduling Software. You can freely use it for scheduling in schools of small or moderate size, or use it for trial purposes only. The files created with this version are fully compatible with the commercial version of Mimosa, which enables you to manage over 8000 entries (approximately 300,000 timetables).

    Mimosa Small School Edition contains both real and trunctated files from our customers from several countries. You may like to study them as examples or modify them freely for your purposes. If you open a Mimosa file which does not fit its limitations, all excess entries are automatically truncated to the limit of 100 entries.

    Installation steps for the trial and free versions:

    You may see warnings "An unidentified program wants to access your computer" or "Do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer?". These messages are part of UAC (User Account Control), and are designed to inform you that a program requires elevated administrative privileges to run. Click Yes or Allow to continue.

    If you download a Mimosa update within a few days of its release you may find that your antivirus software gives a warning that very few other internet users have downloaded the file and, for that reason, it might be suspicious. Some antivirus software products will even recommend you abort the download. These warnings can be ignored. If you feel uneasy about doing so, just wait a few days and try again. The warnings will disappear after enough of our users have been brave enough to download the file!
