1000minds Decision-Making

Specify your criterion weighting method and preferred terminology for this decision.

Understand the difference between costs & other considerations and your criteria, and learn how to enter these other considerations.

Enter any combinations of criteria and their levels that are unrealistic, so that these may be omitted from the trade-offs, thereby minimizing confusion in the decision-making process.

Add and edit the options you are prioritizing or choosing between.

Import a list of alternatives from a Microsoft Excel workbook into 1000minds.

Tell 1000minds what your preferences are by answering a series of questions involving trade-offs.

Understand the general overview of your results, including your preference values, ranked alternatives, trade-off statistics, and a sneak-peek of the value-for-money chart.

View your alternative rankings, compare alternatives to each other in more detail, and understand why your alternatives scored the way they did.

Learn how to use the value-for-money chart to factor in costs and other considerations into your final decision – the highest ranked alternative is not necessarily the best option!

Learn how to select the best alternative, and apply a budget to your decision.

Kick your decision-making up a notch by scaling your scores to set the minimum score to something other than zero. This may help you view the scores more realistically and change your view on what the best alternatives really are.
