Good looking Online Diagram/Chart Creator

  • May 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The UI interface and ease to drag and drop objects for you project is a breeze. Line Connection are also intelligent enough to do what you expect them to do unlike draw.io wherein the end point can point to a different direction as per expectation. FInished product will look more akin to Visio.
What do you dislike about the product?
The free version can only support limited projects that you can save as well as 60 objects max. If you are planning to create a complex diagram/chart dont use this, instead use draw.io

Pricing is a bit expensive as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating charts and diagrams for documentation. Help illustrate to clients the plan or direction that the project/application/solution will be.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the free/trial version if you will just create simple 60 or less objects in your diagrams.

Easy and the best in this category

  • May 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
First and only diagram and flow chart system I have ever and will ever use! Lucidchart has a huge selection of pre-made templates for different projects from flowcharts to floorplans and everything in between. It's drag and drop interface allow for easy custom charts or modification of the premade templates. With the reasonable price plans available (including a FREE Plan) there is an option for you to get your own online storage which is great to keep all your charts and diagrams available online to access in a pinch, but if you need a chart or diagram download there are many different download options available including one of my personal favorites the .png format. It's worth mentioning that if you're a student there is a free upgraded account you can get.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you don't upgrade to a paid account you will not get much space to save documents but this isn't an issue if you just download them all, but again you won't have access to them at that point. Additionally, the site is slow loading the first time you log in but it's not too bad.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Originally as a student using it, it was simple and fast and easy to design site maps and flow charts for websites. Its easy to color code and edit so everyone stays on the same page for the idea of the design. It keeps things simple, clean, and easy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Must have for any designer looking to wireframe and site map digital designs and websites.

Excellent online tool to make diagrams

  • April 04, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is very intuitive and comfortable to work on it. I love the fact that it is based on the cloud and there is no need to install any software on my computer and I can also assign other collaborators or members of my team remotely.
What do you dislike about the product?
You need a good internet connection because sometimes I have lost the work done by unexpected failures of Lucidchart.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a very useful tool to carry everything organized at work, especially if you are a developer since it is possible to create flow diagrams and class diagrams with great ease.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I use this software a lot and I was really impressed by how easy it is to make complex diagrams. It is totally in the cloud and all jobs will always be available at any time.

A Not Complete, Yet Easy to Use and Powerful Tool

  • April 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The largest competitor of Lucid Chart requires the user to download software to get started, whereas, Lucid chart has the option to be almost entirely browser based. As a user, I find this incredibly powerful and a positive user experience. Lucid Chart's ease of access and use is perhaps its strongest trait. It is something any individual needing to build out diagrams should have in their toolkit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Compared to Visio, perhaps Lucid Chart's main competition, the look and feel of the product is lacking a bit. I find myself using Visio a little more often due to the clean look and feel of that application. With Lucid chart, the export options are also a little weak compared to alternatives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The uses of Lucid Chart span throughout most business problems, for a diagram can be created in most situations to provide visual context to a problem, idea or solution. Perhaps the most often uses I find myself going to Lucid Chart for are Entity Relationship Diagrams and Use Case Diagrams. Creating charts like these is a breeze in Lucid Chart, and businesses are provided with powerful visualizations of their needs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a light weight product that provides the tools necessary, I highly recommend Lucid Chart. It provides the user with a quick and easy way to create various business diagrams, from mock ups to ERDs, Lucid Chart is incredibly powerful. If you are an enterprise who relies heavily on Microsoft Products, then I'd consider looking at Visio as well as an alternative. Both products have their pros and cons.

Diagram to organize your projects

  • April 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The way to plan with this application is totally different, ingenious, the organization of the projects is much more visual, you clearly determine the responsibilities of each one and at what moment they must intervene during the execution of the project, an online alternative that contains a large amount of elements and ways to make your diagrams, you can also do collaborative work and it integrates well with other common applications such as Word and Excel.
What do you dislike about the product?
They could add the function of working offline, so as not to depend so much on internet connectivity
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Given that during last year we had many training projects and online presence in different cities of the country, we had to organize all our activities in a great workflow that helped us to visualize all important aspects step by step and those responsible for each of those responsible, that facilitated the dynamics of organization and implementation of training courses and saved us time, unnecessary travel of staff and money.

Great Visualizations, Easy to Use

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to pick up and immediately start creating useful, aesthetically pleasing diagrams. I am just starting to learn more of its advanced capabilities, such as hooking up to live data feeds. Incredibly useful from a operations analytics perspective
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing immediately at the moment. It would be helpful to have API connections to other data sources outside of gsheets/excel for live data feeds
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows for great visualization of process flows. It can be used to give a real-time analysis of process flows in your organizations funnel

Maps, Chart, Graphics and more

  • March 25, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the flexibility of the platform and the connectivity. Be able to share charts with other members of my team is a huge deal.
What do you dislike about the product?
Learning Curve. Although the support documents are great, it is difficult to learn if you've never used a similar platform before.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to create flowcharts, timelines, mind maps, and graphics is a great way to share information with my team. It has also made creating charts for clients easier as I can produce them during a Zoom meeting and share them with the client directly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a much easier platform to use and integrate than Visio and it costs a lot less.

easy flowchart diagrams in the cloud.

  • March 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like this application that I can create all kinds of diagrams with different structures and designs where I can express my ideas clearly, which allows me to create plans and maps of great scope and with high acceptability, the creation of this type of diagrams is made of a simple way, if you already have knowledge in basic applications of the same purpose as Visio, what I like about this tool, is the graphics it has, since they are more adaptable, and in the final diagram, graphically they look better oriented, so I can create diagrams for all kinds of projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
When creating complex diagrams that have a considerable amount of elements, the manipulation can become somewhat complex, since the software can become a bit slower, when the projects are of great proportions, possibly, the graphical engine falls short, when so many graphics and images are placed in the same plane, otherwise the software complies with what it promises, and the creation of a diagram and map, is quite good
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The planning of autumn types of projects can be created in diagrams, and maps, of different characteristics, where together with elements that are inserted in it, helps to have a better reasoning about the projects and tasks to be carried out, since they are scheming, detailed plans of the activities to be carried out.

The best I've found for architecture diagrams

  • February 27, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Generally-speaking, the snapping is good and the smart re-sizing of objects is great. I've also found the autosave to be almost bulletproof. At times, I've thought that I've almost certainly lost work and it's always there waiting for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the snapping can be a bit frustrating. I would also like to be able to tweak the size of arrowheads more specifically.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Technical architecture
- Solutions architecture
- Enterprise architecture
- Flow diagrams
- UML
- Wireframes
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Import your own shape objects to make your diagrams more tailored to your company's brand.
