What do you like best about the product?
I like the simplicity of being able to use Lucidchart. I never knew that making charts in one simple place could be so easy.

I am solving issues with creating graphs and charts. We were just simply using Google for this before, and now it is so much easier and much better looking.

There isn't really anything I dislike about lucidchart. Its a great product. Period.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a marketer, I get a lot of internal questions from different departments asking what are email nurtures look like and what content we share with customers. With Lucidchart I can easily create a flow chart to show the emails and send dates and on top of that, I can hyperlink a shape in the chart and take someone to a sample of the actual customer email.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very easy to use! Excellent for organizing your thoughts on paper to create a seamless, easy to read flowchart. After I started using this product in Marketing, other teams like Sales, Customer Service and Prodcut teams really liked how easy it was to read my charts, that they decided to get a license of lucidchart themselves. Its a great product for any team/department.

Awesome online graphing tool.
What do you like best about the product?
First of all is very easy to get started drawing awesome looking graphs. No matter its complexity you have at hand all the tools needed, from drawing simple flowcharts to complex UML graphs, database relations, etc. The ability to import your graphs from other software is also a big plus. There is also a huge library of symbols and charts available. Also, hotspots and layers, gives a lot of control on what is displayed, so you can somehow animate your chart to turn on/off parts of the graph.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a while to get a grip on drawing connectors with custom paths, especially when adding more than one right angle turn, I had to play a bit with the different options under the page settings menu to finally have control of their positioning. I also, recommend having snap to grid enabled.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The fact that is web based, really help us share and facilitate contributing, from remote users. You can just go to any customer and open your graph in the browser, getting rid of carrying around pen drives with the information. Moreover, it is possible in most cases, to import graphs from customers data. You can have a layer where the customer can make their recommendations to the project without the need for additional meetings. At the end, this saves a lot of time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Fully recommend having a list of keyboard shortcuts, although I didn' t find one, you can build one yourself.
Design your flow easier than ever
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use on the canvas, how easy it is to place the objects and follow the suggestions that makes you
What do you dislike about the product?
At times it is too slow to process, probably due to the servers
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
BPMN 2.0, we can build together and sharing the material
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Improve the speed of processing
