Unique way to collaborate creatively with a lot of people.
What do you like best about the product?
The interface is unique, how you can navigate/scroll around with 50+ people collaborating at once.
What do you dislike about the product?
We couldn't figure out how to "lock" a template, so once 50+ people were on the page, several things broke all at once.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration with 50+ people- there was no better way to do it! We have creative idea boards from various discussions to guide the direction of our company.

At times, I have trouble moving the screen to move the board to an empty spot.

Right now, I am using it to plot out a series of books. The design of Lucidspark allows me to map out the timeline easy and gives me room to brainstorm scenes. The benefits is that you are able to keep it all in one spot.

Account Planning and Org Chart
What do you like best about the product?
Organizational chart capabilities are powerful to create living docs on the dynamically changing org charts
What do you dislike about the product?
I am still trying to understand the interaction with SFDC
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mapping the roles and influences within an organization
Excellent virtual whiteboard for the remote-first team
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy how Lucidspark provides excellent and intuitive design for collaboration, with comments, emojis, and GIF images to add spark along the way. It has a helpful two-way integration with JIRA to export cards as JIRA tickets or import existing tickets for discussion and collaboration. The Google Presentations plugin is also beneficial, taking the whiteboard view and sharing it out to the broader team or stakeholders. The grouping/ungrouping and locking help preserve and organize the chart components once they've solidified based on team feedback. The "create arrow" tool helps create a quick flow based on cards already built.
What do you dislike about the product?
One export capability is CSV, but I cannot use the exported CSV from a Lucidspark board to import into a new document. Therefore, I cannot preserve the chart data offline to bring it back at a later time. Furthermore, I cannot export from Miro (or another tool) to CSV and import the contents into Lucidspark, as we have teams that prefer differing whiteboard systems. Regarding the helpful JIRA integration, I accidentally created 16 cards in JIRA because the walk-through on export was unclear as I walked through the process. I had selected multiple chart components and was surprised to see every piece of the flow chart (including single word cards) export as JIRA stories. Unfortunately, since I cannot delete JIRA stories, that was a bit of an issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am looking to have a collaboration tool for our development team and product/design teams to interact and build out workflows to capture plans for new planned development. We have seen some of this so far and look forward to continued collaboration to provide business value.
Lucidchart is applicable to any industry and any role.

Use of it makes life easy. Creates Powerful visuals of the Team and its peers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Modifications to the complex visuals at times is challenging.

LucidChart G2 Review
What do you like best about the product?
I found the simplicity and documentation of the platform the most enjoyable part.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some performance issues while using Microsoft Edge. It would make the application extremely slow, which I found odd since it worked perfectly fine on Chrome. In addition, there are at times some readability issues with the default colors, which are easily changeable, but it would be nice to have some more contrast as the default.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using the platform to detail project plans, and visually conveying business steps has been an asset to drive team productivity.
Organization and Collaboration Marvel
What do you like best about the product?
I love how simplistic and accessible the service is. I am so glad to be able to use a service that is highly graspable and emergent in terms of how it can support collaboration.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find sometimes the graphics get in the way of fluid usage - but it's mainly subjective to which computer is being used.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving several breaches in communications and scheduling - it helps with the flow of ideas between staff without being abrassive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think if you are going to use this service, it is very important to have staff understand the purpose -- which is collaboration.
