Overall useful tool with a slightly finicky UI
What do you like best about the product?
The core product and available templates are very nice.
What do you dislike about the product?
Using it for the first time is confusing. It seems certain templates only allow for certain things to be done. A template should be just a template but the user should be able to work in it like a sandbox. I remember trying to build a chart that was a bit between templates and having a difficult time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visualizing the workflow I have in front of me and portraying this information to other stakeholders. I am working through these problems right now.
LucidChart
What do you like best about the product?
I liked the ease of use, it was simple to use, but similar enough to Visio that knowing Visio made it easy to adapt
What do you dislike about the product?
What I didn't like about it was the abiltiy to save the LucidChart documents to a one drive or sharepoint. I could only do a file save, which left the document in the cloud.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is web only, so there is no deployment of the software and compatibility testing that would need to be performed. That also presents the problem of how to work offline, your documents are only online and there is no software on the laptop so you can't work off the grid on documents.
Mostly Intuitive and Solid UI
What do you like best about the product?
It's fairly intuitive and easy to jump into. Use it mostly for workflow and charting functionality and works really well for that.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difference between LucidChart and Spark aren't readily apparent for someone who is collaborating-trying to dive in and hit the ground running.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helpful for creating polished resources or documentation for business cases
Easy for the experienced, not so easy for the beginner
What do you like best about the product?
When it comes to creating and designing business processes the visual collaboration suite is unmatched. I like that I can show my team things and we can work through them together in real time.
What do you dislike about the product?
My beginner project management, business analyst team members struggle with knowing formats and content to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating processes that can be changed easily in real time with a group. This makes our team colloboration much more valuable/productive.
Good experiencing porting from Mira
What do you like best about the product?
So far, best feature was porting boards from Miro, had hesitations at first but objects were ported correctly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Haven't had any bad experience with Lucid yet
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm able to architect up solutions with ease to collab and present on with regards to data pipelines
Easy to Use Visual Documentation
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use is my favorite thing about Lucid. I also appreciate that it is collaborative and there are layers that can be added to break things down further or by who contributed to the document. I use this every day in my implementations and it's useful to visualize how certain integrations work.
What do you dislike about the product?
The arrows when moving them are WILD. If I have a complex visual I am creating and need to rearrange and there are many decision points, the arrows are a pain to fix.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucid solves the ability to explain how a process works by breaking things down visually to show a user how a system will be implemented and work
Quick visuals
What do you like best about the product?
Simple, lots of templates, makes pretty charts.
What do you dislike about the product?
UI could use a little improvement, the way arrows snap to objects needs to be more granular.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping visual learners get the most of information sharing sessions.
Good but could be better
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use and it has most of the features we are looking for.
What do you dislike about the product?
As a Windows user at work, we frequently encounter difficulty with the zoom in/out functionality on our Windows laptops. An easier method to create keyboard shortcuts or clear instructions on how to effectively utilize this feature would greatly enhance our user experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It streamlines my workflow by simplifying information management and enhancing team coordination, leading to improved efficiency and productivity.
Lucid Charts Review
What do you like best about the product?
The Lucid chart is easy to use and understand
What do you dislike about the product?
The chart has limitations in accesibility and portability to other software packages
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating complex flow charts and diagrams
Powerful diagraming software, but low on key features found free elsewhere
What do you like best about the product?
Lucid is great for providing a massive canvas for your design needs. It's helpful when trying to identify the relationship between different entities and detailing the flow of information.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unless you're prepared to pay for expensive licenses for each user, functionality is incredibly limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With many different data systems, we have to understand the flow of data from one source of truth to many systems that update in real-time.
