Great Aesthetically and Productively
What do you like best about the product?
Have been using Lucid for a little over a year now and love using it for any kind of diagram or visual I need to produce for either work or for personal use. As stated in the title, I am in LOVE with the visual look of the tools and the website in general, and using the tool simply feels great. I cannot stress how much I appreciate the visual appeal compared to alternative tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
If there was a tour feature or a more straightforward method for learning all the little tricks and settings that almost always improve my workflow, this tool would be more clear for a lack of a better word. It's hard to get into the rhythm of using Lucid but once you do, it's really enjoyable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Finding a great collaborative charting tool that makes things simple and fluid for me and my team make it the undeniable choice for me.
Intuitive UX - Org Chart Templates Lacking
What do you like best about the product?
I like the intuitive nature between elements. I used Lucid to generate my company's complex org chart, and I liked that once linked via lines, I could move boxes freely without the lines breaking. I liked that I could organize my document into different tabs and I liked the overall clean and professional aesthetic of the diagram. I also liked that there was a number of export options, however I encountered some problems with that.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest thing for me was that the org chart templates did not fulfill the complex needs of my organization. The variance in hierarchies and the breadth of employees meant that the standard org chart came out looking not right. I had to manually build the org chart out block-by-block, but would have much preferred to use the org chart templates that allowed you to collapse and expand sections and were easily updated by HR, if necessary.
When exporting my diagram as SVG, the plan was to import into a Canva presentation deck. The SVG didn't export correctly and I had to open the document in Adobe Illustrator, fix the fill of some elements (even though on Lucid it all looked fine), and re-upload to Canva. Perhaps some kind of preflight or Canva integration would work well.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem was our org charts were outdated, ugly, didn't fully present the true hierarchies of our organization. Essentially, they weren't professional. In addition, they were static. We needed something that solved all of that, plus was able to be digital so we could embed into a private page on our website that could be sent to stakeholders to ease through navigation.
Good tool to manage diagrams
What do you like best about the product?
I had different kind of graphs to design and the tool was great because it is so easy to use and offers a wide variety of boxes and charts.
What do you dislike about the product?
The free version is too limiting and sometimes it is difficult to move objects if there are arrows linked to them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am creating org-charts and it was so time consuming with powerpoint, especially when you remove or add roles and you have to align everything every time, Lucid solves all these issues.
fantastic tool
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Lucid Visual makes teamwork seamless with real-time editing, intuitive diagramming, and smooth integration with other tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
One downside of Lucid Visual is that it can feel overwhelming due to its many features, which may slow down performance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The Suite solves problems related to remote teamwork, process visualization, and project alignment. It helps by providing real-time collaboration, clear workflow mapping, and easy idea sharing, improving efficiency and communication.

There should be more examples to inspire design. The templates are good but basic - would be cool to see other users projects.

Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite Review
What do you like best about the product?
The visual mapping tools are easy to use
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is not aesthetically appealing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucid is providing a means of connecting multiple departments on a single project and providing a good solution to conveying project structure and management.
Seamless experience for brainstorming ideas for my startup.
What do you like best about the product?
I like how seamless of an experience it provides to the user. The tools and the website are easy to navigate, even for those like myself who have little to no experience in using design tools. I think my favourite part is also the simple layout, despite all of the numerous features it provides to the user.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are no ai agents to help execute multiple tasks at once, this would enable things to get done quicker and with less "fiddling" by the user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I signed up for Lucid when i was brainstorming for my startup and needed to add a compelling diagram to my slide deck, but other apps that i had used were not able to provide me with what i needed, however i found Lucid and it fulfilled all of my expectations. I believe it is a good product in an over-crowded market, that allows users to seamlessly navigate and create what they need.
Diagrams that are clear, understandable and easily created
What do you like best about the product?
Instructions found on YouTube were most helpful to me in using the charts needed for a project. I was tasked with creating an engineering/technical flow - something I haven't done in many years. I tried Microsoft Visio first - and found it completely incompatible with Word, PPT and excel. Implementation was greatly improved by using the Lucid products.
What do you dislike about the product?
I disliked the few number of symbols that could be used during the trial period. Other than that - I found the product a good fit for the assignment that I had. I attempted to make contact with the representative in order to personally purchase the product, but found this interaction to be lacking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was writing a grant to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting with dollars earmarked by FEMA for the replacement of transmitters for our EAS Early Warning system for the state. Our organization was requested to provide additional RFI and that included a flowchart (technical) of the steps that would be involved if we were awarded the grant.
Lucid Suite has helped me a lot in creating neat, clear, and organized diagrams and projects.
What do you like best about the product?
Once you get adjusted to the tools and accessibility of the Suite, making projects, charts, and diagrams become second nature. It's organized and to be frank, a lot easier than other CADs or software to really get something going. It's pretty much my go to every time. I use it multiple times a week.
What do you dislike about the product?
For me personally, it's counter intuitive sometimes when you're working with another program or CAD and then transferring to Lucid Suites. It took a bit of time to adjust but once I did, it was simple and easy to get something working.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gives me an effective, clear, and organized way to present solutions to clients.
