Great for Departmental Process Mapping
What do you like best about the product?
The maps are easy to create. The maps can contain various colors to make different sections of the map stand out. In a laboratory environment, the Maps are a great way to map each process to aid with new staff training
What do you dislike about the product?
When the maps are large for quite complex processes, the formatting of the maps can take a long time and can be pretty fiddly to get right. The free version of this software should provide more freedom of app use before the user has to purchase premium. I felt like I couldn't benefit from the free version to get a good feel for the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have processed mapped laboratory processes to provide aid for internal staff training, including creating flow charts for each method within the laboratory. These maps are not only beneficial for new starters but have been beneficial for laboratory staff who don't necessarily perform the task often.
Great Tool for Diagraming Process Flows
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy and intuitive. There's little to no learning curve required. I also love how easy it is to collaborate with the team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be confusing exactly how to edit and change cetain shapes and arrows if you want to make revisions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're able to very quickly get confusing processes on paper, so our team can see the breakdowns and make improvements.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's worth trying.
Good chart tools
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to learn and using, You can place the flowchart units wherever you like
What do you dislike about the product?
If I missed a chart unit, we need an easy way to insert a new one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working so fast than using the other way to make the new flow chart
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it first, and you'll know how good it is. Please share your experience with us by reviewing it.
Lucid Chart First Impressions for Block Diagramming
What do you like best about the product?
Lucidchart is best at being able to create block diagrams quickly and accurately. Its sidebar allows quick selection of the correct shape and formatting to enhance the readability and structure of the overall diagram.
What do you dislike about the product?
As of right now, the only dislike I have with Lucidchart is its lack of mathematical support. Having the ability to insert equations and other numerical features would be great. My workaround has been sufficient. I have just been screenshotting and inserting images of the equations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I haven't had any problems with Lucidchart so far. I am using it to demonstrate to other people the flow of my programming logic for a rocket's flight computer. Without Lucidchart, it would be almost impossible to clearly show the structure of the code and the logic behind it.
The could-based Visio alternative that checks all the boxes
What do you like best about the product?
Lucidchart makes it extremely easy to visualize information quickly and effectively. I'm consistently impressed the more that I learn about the tool and have come to use it as a part of my daily work personally and professionally.
What do you dislike about the product?
Frankly , the only part of the product that I don't love is the experience of creating and using custom images / icons. I wish that a brand's core content (logos, ect) could be shared across all chart creation environments without having to manually enable that library within each new chart.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been able to get better visibility into daily processes and deveiefs from meetings. I'm certainly more productive coming out of beings as the whole group has been aligned on what actually needs to be done, in a visual format. This doesn't replace traditional project tracking, but makes brainstorming that much easier.
Excellent tool for collaborative diagramming
What do you like best about the product?
Lucid chart provides a fast, easy-to-use tool for collaborating and charting. We use it regularly for designing and mapping logic flows in our software.
What do you dislike about the product?
It begins to bog down my browser when having many tabs open.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Lucid Chart primarily for mapping out logical flows for front-end and back-end software development.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As far as charting solutions are concerned, Lucid Chart seems to tick all the boxes.

The downfalls are that as a beginner, some things and how to work around them may be complicated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

The overall experince with lucid chart have been great. It offer tons of template that can get you started with almost any project of multiple type (not only computer related) .

1. Very easy to create a design once you have watched the tutorial
2. Can share using the link, pdf, and export to Visio
3. Real-time collaboration,, whice excelllent for remote work

What do you dislike about the product?
There is definetly room for imrpovment for example some time durng the meeting and collaboration It's a bit slow sometimes when more than one person is working on the same page. It also happend whenever you are collaborating without a meeting. I have aasked my teammate to see if that was only me but they are having the same issue. Please not that it is now super slow, its just not smooth as if you were working alone on the page.
I think the worst part of the overall experience is dialing with connecting arrows to other objects. I am relative new to the program so it may be my fault but sometime it is a pain to connect arrow when you have multiple obeject in area. For example a process flow with multiple if statement can become a challenge to maintain the arrow in the righ place after you want to add a new object. Connecting arros can become a nightmare for complex diagram since thae arrows may disconnect and connect to the wrong objects changing the entire diagram.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a tools to design network diagram, process flow and that can be crossplaftform ( some of my teams members work with mac and other with linux) Threfore, Visio was not an option for us. We use the tools to quickly collaborated and explain to other team section of the proccess flow that they have to work on. Doing this have expidicte the collarobarion whitin teams. Usually we are at least two people working on the same diagram at a time while sharing the ideas over a call.
In short we use it for diagramming network interface, program process flow, and quick illustration during meetings. It helps communicate the problem and solution visually to the the customer and team memebers
