Easy Online Charts that get the job done
What do you like best about the product?
I love that it is online, and we can share the charts with other people even if they are not in our company. With the previous chart software, we could not do that. Lucid charts have revolutionized our IT department and the way we document things.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not a downside to Lucid charts. If I were to name one thing it would be that sometimes when Importing from Visio it does not quite get the formatting correctly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our phone system is mainly text-based and Lucid charts helps us document the flow of calls coming into our system. It helps us at a glance know how the system works and were we need to make changes it
Valuable product--UI/UX has room for improvement for newcomers
What do you like best about the product?
It does the job and has been helpful in diagramming out software systems and data flows. It is the biggest tool we use in our company, and collaborating and sharing Lucidcharts has been easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
No dealbreakers, just suggestions: as a junior dev, they could add some useful templates and guides that are easy to understand for specific use cases--including styling guidelines for your use case. Maybe that was there, but I wasn't 100% satisfied after using it. But if you were to ask ChatGPT 4 to provide a mock for your use case using styling standards, it would probably be able to do so, or at least describe what you might want to do with high accuracy--so why can't Lucid do that?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For me as a junior dev, it provides the most value in mapping systems. It has been easier to onboard myself to a large company with many interacting software systems thanks to Lucid.
Very intuitive and simple way to create flow charts and org charts
What do you like best about the product?
The software is very intuitive. It knows what you are trying to do and anticipates it. It completes lines, boxes, objects that it believes you are working on. In my case, it's almost always correct. There are many options and colors to choose from and it's a very user friendly program. I was able to use without any training and just figure it out for the basic functions.
What do you dislike about the product?
I was creating an org chart and it was pretty straight forward. The only thing I couldn't figure out was splitting a box into 2 colors. But I think some training could help that. I was able to figure it out using a work around. I would like to utilize this even more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows team members (especially new employees) to see the org chart and how the company reports into each other. It helps to see what the different teams look like and helps understand the hierarchy of the org.
Simple Flowchart Creation with Power
What do you like best about the product?
I've tried to create flow charts within Google Docs and hacked together flow charts in other products, but Lucidchart makes it much easier and straightforward to create them.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly there's not much that I dislike. It wasn't difficult to learn, nor was it difficult to use. If there's anything, it would be the cost. I can use it for my work - as they pay for it - but for personal use, it's a bit costly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to quickly create charts, whether flow charts, diagrams for my code bases, or best practices for a process/QA. It has been very useful in letting me quickly create all these documents.
Lucidchart is incredibly accessible and easy to use.
What do you like best about the product?
I like that there is a large assortment of bullet points and templates.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one thing I dislike is that sometimes the text doesn't disappear when you delete letters or words until you move to a different text bubble.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucidchart helps create professional-looking and organized charts and diagrams.

To properly document the application flow in a readable format that everyone can understand.
