The Journal wrote that, "Our reviewers were impressed with MindFit's assessment tools and the variety of exercises. You had to do task-switching, and had to change your concentration. It really felt like I was using part of my brain that I don't use very much." The article went on to say that the MindFit brain training software "clearly outlines the benefits of each exercise, which I found the strongest motivation for using the program." Another reviewer quoted in the brain gym software review said, "This one was based the most solidly in cognitive science and what we think stimulates the brain" and "Our users also liked MindFit's instant feedback. They found the program's assessment of their individual capabilities, rather than a single number tagging their 'brain age' more satisfying and reality-based."

Bruce Robinson, CEO of MindWeavers said "We are very pleased that the benefits of MindFit brain training software have been recognized by such a prestigious popular journal. A great deal of effort has been made to balance the scientifically proven benefits of this brain training software with the fun factor, ensuring that as people are motivated by enjoyment of the brain exercise games, they are also achieving the maximum cognitive training benefit.”
