Lucid Chart - review
What do you like best about the product?
I love that you can collaborate on files in real time
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the arrows come out of the text box too quickly - might be my sensitive click
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Large strategic issues but in my previous role wireframing and system design
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If there is a pen tool to be able to draw custom shapes
Lucidchart works great
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of creating things like flowcharts. They look neat and clean and require little effort. I was able to tailor it exactly the way I wanted it to look without making any compromises
What do you dislike about the product?
The only dislike is the formatting of the grid, but I'm able to work around that easily so it's not really much of a disadvantage.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed to create flow charts and everything Google Drive has to offer and Word are not capable of making these in a seamless and easy way.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It took no training or tutorial &I am no expert in using computer programs, just an average user
Really handy tool to make diagrams
What do you like best about the product?
The most valuable thing about Lucid to my team and me is it easy to use to make a diagram quickly out of basic shapes and share it with a team. All created or shared charts will be shown in my documents. So it's easy to find them. Auto saving is great as well - you won't lose it.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is annoying to wait several seconds when lucid charts open in the new browser's tab. But overall, I don't see it has any other issues. Probably I'll find them later on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is difficult to explain the process or high-level vision of what is happening on the project while you and your team are working remotely. You do not have a whiteboard to draw things, but you have Lucid charts. In this case, while we have a zoom call, we can quickly share our understanding in simple diagrams.
Otherway, to do knowledge transfer or keep an overall understanding of basic things/processes, I still need an opportunity to check and share them with others. It can be workflows, an architect view of a developing platform for the project, process diagrams, and org charts for the whole company.

Industrial Engineer at GLS-US
What do you like best about the product?
There are a lot of tools available and easy drag and drop options. Collaborating on the same project is very convenient. It also has a lot of export options. A lot better than making flow charts in MS PowerPoint.
What do you dislike about the product?
The grid lines do not extend when I make the diagram outside the sheet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy to make Value Stream Map and Process flow maps. This helps in identifying the bottlenecks and explaining the process during presentations.
Excellent Diagramming Software
What do you like best about the product?
LucidChart strikes an outstanding balance between allowing less formal "whiteboard" diagramming but providing more strict and precise architectures when needed. I use LucidChart on every project.
What do you dislike about the product?
The free tier is pretty limited, and $10 a month does seem high for personal usage. However, nothing else really does what LucidChart does as well! The only area I could see improvements would be adding more than 3 documents to the free tier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving collaborative architectural problems, working through and demonstrating complex software issues and possible resolutions and creating a presentable artifact to share with others.
Seamless and intuitive visualisation tool
What do you like best about the product?
The tool allows you to navigate seamlessly. The help tool whilst there is almost not needed due to its intuitive design and ease of use. The variations of tools shapes and templates in Lucidchart I find allows you to visualise any possibility within your business.
What do you dislike about the product?
The margin where alternative shapes and tools are displayed I would like to see on a separate popup box. This is to prevent scrolling and enables the user to widen their search when looking for that ideal shape. That being said, the search function is also very useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Modern businesses throw many dichotomies at you and being able to visualise them makes it easy to convey and communicate. Personally, I use Lucidchart for org structure, process flows, decision trees and a host of other applications.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try using both templates and freehand, I found using both enabled me to widen my capabilities within Lucidchart.
Lucidchart is great for planning
What do you like best about the product?
Lucidchart is a great tool that I have been using for years in marketing roles to map out my ideas, plan, document workflows, processes, etc. It is also straightforward to use; anyone can do it!
What do you dislike about the product?
I am not sure what I don't like about Lucidchart. I have been using it for years now, but I can't think of one thing at the moment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Lucidchart for planning with our marketing team and other colleagues. The benefit I realized is an entire team can work on the chart at the same time from different computers and locations since our company is remote.
Great tool, especially for Org Charts!
What do you like best about the product?
The templates that were available and easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not being able to use full functionality on certain templates without paying for the top membership.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helped us get organized, and visibility is excellent.
Lucid Chart Diagramming Applications
What do you like best about the product?
I like the lucid chart templates that provide so many options to quick-start your essential diagrams and charts. Daily, I utilize Lucid Charts to develop process and product flow charts, create timelines, decision structures, value streams, mind mapping, root-cause, and more. I also referred other departments in my organization to utilize lucid charts for basic wire diagrams and develop high-level electrical/mechanical layouts.
What do you dislike about the product?
I suggest that Lucid Chart should add a template library of shapes as well such as engineering, design, etc in the more shapes or import your shape area. It is tedious and time consuming to find shapes that would match Lucid Chart programs requirements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
diagramming for engineering, production, process control, concept development, high-level drawings, value-streams, team-task optimization, shift optimization, PLM systems, etc
