Honestly not a whole lot. I'm not very familiar with how its pricing model compares with competitors, but feature-wise, I have no complaints at all.

We're working on a software activity that can be quite non-linear, and we realized a traditional spreadsheet wouldn't work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There's a free trial so you can't lose; try it out and see if it doesn't completely blow you away.
It is a great tool to do diagramming, super user friendly! And also can be convert to other format!
What do you like best about the product?
Lucidchart is a brand new tool to me, a professor from the college of businees introduced me. I use this for data management for decision-makers class. It is straightforward to use, even for someone who doesn't have any business backgroud. I use this to draw ERD; it is an excellent tool to edit the entities and relationships, and when you need to re-arrange the location of your entities, or you need to move the relationship, the other relationships move with it at the same time. Thus, it won't hurt the rest of your diagram.
What's more, I like how you can invite your team member to the lucid chat, and they can edit at the same time. Or you can send invitations to people just review but not edit.
Meanwhile, It saves every step you do immediately so that you won't lose any of your work. I like to draw a draft first; then, I use the template that Lucidchart has to make my diagram looks prettier and more professional. After I finish my work, I can export it into whatever format I like.

What do you dislike about the product?
The only con is there is no difference if other team members make changes to the diagram. If lucid chat can give each user a different color when they make changes, that will be great. Just like the team member's name on the right upper part, they have a different color for their name initial. Then we can quickly tell who made the change and who hasn't commented. Thus there should be a button to delete the color by pressing it to submit our final version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using the lucid chart for ERD editing, which has been beneficial for this product. It is productive and saves lots of time. And hopefully it can help us get a good score.
Extremely pleased with Lucidchart!!!
What do you like best about the product?
Lucidchart has made my work life a million times easier. It is incredibly straightforward to use and has had a positive impact on the amount of work I can get done in a day.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'll be honest; I haven't found anything in Lucidchart that I dislike. Everything is easy to use, and it provides all the templates I need, as well as valuable training on how to use those templates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucidchart has helped out tremendously with tracking the growth cycle of my company's plants. Lucidchart allows everyone in my company to understand what is going on daily.
Easy to use for all our charting needs
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to use with just a browser to create org charts & process flows
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at this point. Most of my uses are fairly simple.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Documenting our business process & organization structure
A good competitor to Visio
What do you like best about the product?
The massive amount of templates available: decreases time-to-delivery for new charts. As a developer, it's a lot like never having to deal w/ boilerplate code again.
What do you dislike about the product?
The amount of templates available can be thought of similar to low-code/no-code platforms, where your satisfaction is proportionate to how much of your use case is satisfied by out-of-box templates. To that end, using LucidChart for complex, non-templated diagramming is a bit tough.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Diagramming of biz processes; diagramming of software data and logic flow. We're saving time through using the aforementioned templates. It's also easy to pick up, so we save on onboarding time.
Product Manager
What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy using Lucidchart to wireframe product design, features, and prototyping. I also use Lucidchart to illustrate data structure and server-side infrastructure.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish Lucidchart could provide me with a better onboarding experience where I would have a more thorough guidance on setting up everything on my account and getting started.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a product manager, I mainly use Lucidchart to wireframe product design that reflects my vision and strategy for the feature. Lucidchart is a great intermediary tool that I use to wireframe my idea as part of the product requirement document that I submit for designers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend using Lucidchart's learning center better learn about all the tools available before getting started.
Great functionality for charts and P&IDs and easy to collaborate
What do you like best about the product?
How multiple people can work on a chart a once and how it predicts where you want connecting lines well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes certain illustrations can not be moved to an exact area of the screen. You must delete and redraw to get it where you want. Rare but it happens.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are collaborating with a team to create flow diagrams
Fits the needs perfectly for collaborative work
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can actively work on mapping and show the value in showing the current and possible future states of our projects. Being able to convey this visually is key to gaining an understanding to what should be done.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that I am unable to give more editing permissions if working with custom objects to the people whom I share with and are not yet active users in Lucidchart.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am doing workflow and business process mapping for software tools and integrations. Lucidchart helps in mapping step by step the process that needs to be built and how it ties back together with high level view that is easy to edit and see what it can effect.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do what you can to be collaborative.
