Lucidworks is very intuitive platform
What do you like best about the product?
It helps to visualize the project start, timeline planning and implementation with a streamlined flow definition. Furthermore, all team players can virtually plan the mind-mapping activity at concurrent time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have recently started exploring Lucidworks and find it an intuitive and great tool, however as all devices need to enhance further. So it might be a good idea to expand in terms of messaging tools plugins installed like Zoom, Team meeting inside the tool and scheduling tools where meetings can be scheduled at a single step.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is solving the product planning stage and making it easy, simplified and collaborative simultaneously; Furthermore, when the team needs to plan any big project, it's an excellent option to break it into small modules and implement them.
Great for flowcharts
What do you like best about the product?
flowcharts and sorting the boxes in different colors
What do you dislike about the product?
zoom in and zoom out feature needs to be on the mouse
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
explaining workflow in the form of simple charts
Group idea prioritisation made easy
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the versatility and organised layout of Lucidspark, which allows me to take notes using whiteboards or visual sticky notes. In addition, its easy-to-use format makes it easy for team members to collaborate remotely while still tracking project progress. I also like how Post-it notes can be sorted into categories so that individual ideas don't get lost in the clutter, while vivid colours make it easier for visually stimulated people like me to understand where we are in our brainstorming sessions! To keep abreast of any changes made during these meetings, which are even further apart physically, teams can share their boards online and update them instantly, which is a fantastic advantage when it comes to uploading files without losing any information, thanks once again to its wide range of features, including spell-checking and so on.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find Lucidspark quite useful, but my only issue with it is the way connectors can be reset to arrowheads. It's common practice when creating databases or icons in general to use a number of repeating components that require minor modifications; however, these changes don't seem to stick as they seem to be overwritten by default settings after certain actions are performed on them. I'd like to see some sort of persistence mechanism implemented so that users don't have to manually adjust their line configurations every time an action is performed on their connection points.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucidspark is a digital collaborative workspace that enables teams to brainstorm and collaborate. By providing an interactive space where everyone can share their ideas, it eliminates the need for traditional whiteboards or sticky notes and makes collaboration more efficient.
great tool for technical diagrams
What do you like best about the product?
Able to share diagrams and collaborate with others on them aswell.
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes diagram shapes are hard to find, so have to go find them from some library package. would be great if they had common generic shapes for similar items between different packages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Able to create architectural flow diagrams and share/collaborate with others on them easily.
Good to use
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Lucidchart will expand more space if you run out of room. It helps when the diagram or chart I am creating is larger than I expected. When it automatically extends more workspace, I do not need to reorganize or resize my whole chart.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think it is challenging to find the shapes I need. The basic shapes also have rounded corners which could affect the presentation, if sharp corners are needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucidchart helps create a space to create diagrams. Trying to create charts on Word or PowerPoint is difficult, so Lucidchart makes it easier to create charts and ensure they look nice.
Lucid Chart Enterprise review
What do you like best about the product?
I think the usability and ease of access are most helpful!
I appreciate the extensive image library the most; one of the best things is the numerous templates available!

What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, nothing much! I'd say if the layout was a bit more condensed, that might help those newer to the app. Or, perhaps, there might be some tutorials readily available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping me solve visualizing the software development workflow, benefiting me in getting my projects done in a more structured and organized manner. Overall, extremely helpful.
Tons of capability and easy to learn
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using it for about three weeks and have created three fairly detailed diagrams. I have found it easy to learn and have gained some efficiencies in my work by using some of the Diagramming Foundations online training from Lucid's Learning Campus. For me, what makes Lucidchart stand out from other diagraming tools I've used is the Layers feature. I use Layers to toggle some details that make complex diagrams easier to digest for some viewers.
What do you dislike about the product?
The tool is heavily biased towards easily drawing connecting lines from just about any shape/object, to its own detriment, in my opinion. Details: when I click on a shape/object, the bounds of the shape/object and "handles" to resize the object appear. It's incredibly difficult to select a handle on the side of a shape/object to resize it in one vector only; instead, it always wants to draw a connector from the shape/object. I find myself repeatedly undoing the creation of connectors. It's vexing at times!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The Layers festure allows me to manage detail on my diagrams.
Consistently easy to use - Sharing features could do with improvement
What do you like best about the product?
The multitude of iconography available makes it easy to build relevant diragrams without scouring the internet for images.
The flexibility of the controls and speed at which you can draw and rearrange items is superb.
The flexibility of the controls and speed at which you can draw and rearrange items is superb.
What do you dislike about the product?
A lack of pen suport and free flow drawing means it can't be used as a whiteboarding tool.
Sequence diagrams can be modelled with PlantUml syntax, but it is severely limited with only the minimal features added.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication and collaboration is key for a team to function. Lucidcharts allows the team to use one tool for collaboaration, ideation, and modelling or architecture and solutions. This improves discussion and understanding greatly for a remote based workforce.
Organise and share ideas
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can collaborate with others in real-time, so I can quickly get feedback on my ideas.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't used it enough to find some cons. It's been helpful for my purpose so far.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping me reorganise and better visualise the org chart.
Confusing at first, good templates
What do you like best about the product?
The templates and data input features are advanced. I like how organized everything looks in Lucidspark and the way a lot of information can be displayed in a way that is easily understood.
What do you dislike about the product?
I was overwhelmed when opening up and using Lucidspark for the first time. There are many cool features but the data input files and inability to quickly customize a template proved to be more time-consuming than expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Similarly to how we used Miro previously, Lucidspark offers a lot of collaboration tools and workshop templates. It is great for organizing thoughts and quickly putting together a user flow.
