What's New in Mimosa?

Download free and demonstration versions of Mimosa

On this page you find two free Mimosa versions, which share the same features as the commercial production version of Mimosa, except the restrictions mentioned below.

Note that if you have already installed an older version of Mimosa, and you want to install the current version,

• you do NOT need to Uninstall the previous version of Mimosa
• your current Mimosa files are NOT deleted or modified (except files named "sample*.mfw")
• your Mimosa files are compatible with the new version
• your Mimosa files created with the free versions are compatible with the Mimosa production version
• you can upgrade from ANY previous Mimosa version directly to the current version

All Mimosa versions, including the production version are 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 appropriate menu selection.

Note: if you have already purchased the production version of Mimosa, you should always upgrade it from the download address we have emailed to you. The Mimosa versions on this page cannot be used as upgrades to the production version.

Mimosa Small School Edition (Freeware)

Mimosa Small School Edition allows you to create, maintain and save up to 100 codes (components + courses) indefinitely. You can freely use it for timetabling in schools of small or moderate size, or use it for evaluation purposes only. The created and accessed file(s) are fully compatible with the production version of Mimosa, enabling to manage over 8000 codes (approximately 300,000 timetables) and continue working with your current file uninterrupted. Mimosa files are compatible with all versions, except the volume restriction mentioned above.

This application 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 read in this application a file which does not fit its limitations, all excess codes are automatically truncated to the limit of 100 codes.

Mimosa Demonstration Version

Mimosa Demonstration Version provides the full capacity and functionality of Mimosa, but it does NOT permit file saves. It is intended to be used mainly for evaluation purposes with larger files, that are not supported with the Freeware version. With the attached sample files you can test the performance and capabilities of Mimosa Production version, which has the same capacity limit.

For instance, you might like to take a look at the attached sample file "sample0.mfw" (in data subfolder), containing individual and weekly timetables of 1000 students.
