Great for visualizing/conceptualizing database designs!
What do you like best about the product?
LucidChart is very user friendly. It is very easy to create a table, add a column, draw relationships, and reorganize your project at your discretion.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you don't pay for the premium version, you will find that you can run out of space to work quickly. You can't complain, as you're using a free service, but I would have appreciated having the ability to explore deeper into what I can do with the software before having to pay
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Database design projects are made much easier with Lucidchart. It's fills a crucial step in the design phase, makes creation/implementation MUCH easier
Even a novice can do it.
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the drag and drop feature of the Lucidchart. You supply the explanation of use for each shape; you allow manual manipulation of color size and text, just to name a few, and you make it simple. I have used various graphic arts tools in my life for various projects, and find Lucidchart the best for my needs in flow chart development. It is so user friendly that and even a novice can turn an idea into a professional presentation in a snap.

The best part was being able to store multiple diagrams in my account before exporting them as well as having many saved assets i would use commonly across multiple diagrams.

When i used it, it was sometimes slow to update and save, which may have been a localised issue to myself but outside of this it was fine.

All your UML Diagrams in one place
What do you like best about the product?
Hub of creating all the UML (Unified Modelling Language) Diagrams, Networking Diagrams, ER Diagrams, Flowcharts, Business Organizational Charts, Venn Diagrams, templates for iOS & Android etc at one place is what is the basic use of Lucid-chart. It has excellent set of components which allows to combine them in a beautiful way to achieve great output as a set of large number of charts & diagrams. It's ability to denote the text annotations and various fonts and styling options is also useful. It has good integration facility with various applications like Google Drives, GSuite, Github etc. We can even export the diagrams in various file types
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it is quite un-easy to connect the two objects using the association because the placement of the objects can be an obstruction for a linear line to be drawn as the software gives a sketch on a graph paper. Diagrams sometimes can be a bit different in output when exported as a pdf or image
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All the business charts and UML diagrams can be now easily drawn with the help of Lucid-chart. They can be collaboratively made or made individually and exported as a PDF, documents, image including a transparent PNG image with custom dpi settings which is great as it helps to optimize it to fit in various business requirements and provides optimized productivity. The integration capabilities with GSuite & Github allows easy collaboration and sharing across various business partners.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The software is recommended for all who want to work with UML (Unified Modelling Language) Diagrams, Networking Diagrams, Organizational Charts, templates for iOS & Android and are working on System Analysis & Design; especially the systems analyst will find this software of much usage in their professional business work. The software developers will get a lot of help through the use of this software as it gives a better picture of the thoughts. It is free for personal usage with a set of limited features and full features can be purchased for a small amount. Similarly, good pricing options are available for teams and to suit enterprise requirements.
A great solution for businesses which can also become better.
What do you like best about the product?
For both beginners and professionals, I feel that lucid charts provide a great number of templates for all different purposes. Not only ranging from coding or programming diagram tools for flow charts and data flow diagrams. However, there are templates for many more purposes other than programming. Business, economics, science, you name it, there is a template for that. Hence, the range is wider than Lucidchart's competitors. It has all the essential tools and templates. It does not dissapoint in that aspect.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lucidchart offers editing options that anyone would expect including shapes import, text & object alignment, and object size adjustment. However the drag and drop used to bring new shapes to the canvas is something I am not that fond of to be honest. Also the biggest weakness of lucidchart against competitors is the price point. It is expensive, especially for an individual who occasionally uses it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using lucid charts for computer coding and programming. Lucid charts really provide me with the professional templates I need to create program designs easily and conveniently. It makes the process of getting flowcharts especially easy and saves me a lot of times for diagrams like data flow.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a good choice if you have money to spend on it or if your organization is funding it. However the cheapest or even free competitors are not too bad either. Hence I dont know, check what requirements you have and choose accordingly.
Makes creating workflows a breeze
What do you like best about the product?
Using Lucidchart is pretty simple, I especially enjoy the templates they have to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes selecting multiple objects to edit is challenging, and creating an arrow from one object to the next can be a little clunky.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been creating marketing email workflows, Lucidchart makes it easy to digitize thoughts into action.
Easy to collaborate
What do you like best about the product?
We frequently create diagrams that require multiple users to collaborate. With LucidChart, we can all work from the same source diagram, and make updates as necessary. This means we are always accessing the most up-to-date diagram, and don't have multiple copies of the same diagram in various stages of updates.
We can also export the diagrams as a PNG if we need to attach to our documentation, embed in an email, or add to a PowerPoint presentation.
We can also import our existing Visio diagrams so we can actively combat the issue with locally-saved source material.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the lines DO NOT want to make a straight connection and we have to increase the resolution in order to manipulate the line.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been able to avoid losing source material when someone leaves the company because the material is cloud-accessible. Any diagrams not shared with a larger audience are automatically transferred to the individual's manager in a single folder when they are removed from our licensure.
Simple to use and easy to create professional content
What do you like best about the product?
Professional finish with minimal training required
What do you dislike about the product?
Ability to not share documents simply between users within the same system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used this to tool to develop a workflow to match customer requirements and to simply state the specific processes
