Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the free account first, but be aware that there are limits on the free account, such as a limit on the number of shapes that can be used before you have to sign up for a paid account. With a free account, you can also only have three documents in edit mode and all others have to be in view only mode. But the free version is still a good way to see how it works.
Easy to use tool that makes formatting easy
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy Lucidspark is to use. I've struggled to format my diagrams using other platforms and this was so easy! It's also great that you aren't limited to a certain page size. You can build and build your diagram and don't have to worry about moving things around to fit in an 8.5 by 11. When you want to print the diagram, it shrinks it down to make it fit on the page size you are printing on.

Lucid all the way
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of usability for the first-time users, templates, converting flow charts/process charts to jpeg or pdf with a single click.
The biggest pro has been simultaneous updates by the team. This saves a lot of time during meetings as the team doesn't have to take it away and tweak it.

What do you dislike about the product?
When you copy a process flow with text on the direction arrows between two objects, once you paste in the destination the text on these arrows gets highlighted with a line. Ie text is sent to the background and line comes front
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simultaneous brainstorming with the team, easy saving, quick creation of charts
It is a very good tool for brainstorming!
What do you like best about the product?
I like that everybody can work in the same place at the same time. Is possible that everybody can vote in real time and it gives you immeadiately the ending results. You can use it easily for sharing ideas within the team and add comments for everything. It keeps a track of whatever has been discussed and there is no need to fill in a separate meeting agenda. Is great a tool in which you can share your board with many people and set up permissions individually. Everybody can set up a collor therefore you can identify immediately who is writing something. You can also set up timers which improves in the end the speed of any meeting. Who ever administrates the board can see everybody in real time whenever they are working individualy. When the administrators wants to pressent something, can notify it trough Lucidspark and then everybody can return to the main board.
Trough Lucidspark you can add thousands of ideas on a board using sticky notes. Then you can color them individually. You can even create any kind of shapes and connect your ideas trough lines. You can design everything according to your personal style and ammend the content anytime you want it. Plus there is no need to remember by hard how to use it because you can go to Keyboard Shortcuts and see the menu. It is a very good tool for brainstorming!

internal communication
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Is a good tool to be used for internal communication.
Really intuitive tool that helps me visualise my ideas clearly 👍
What do you like best about the product?
Drag and drop functionality for nodes and links between different elements is super slick. Requires minimum prior knowledge or training to get started with it. Sharing is super simple and collaboration when working remotely is very effective. It's a tool I can see us using more and more as the business grows.
What do you dislike about the product?
Zooming in and out of the board is a bit annoying and would like a bit more freedom on the design elements but I'm only using the free account right now so I assume that would improve with paid features. Connecting arrows to nodes can be a bit glitchy too. Still finding my feet with the tool so will be able to give more feedback later down the line.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucidspark is helping me to map out my customer comms journey across multiple levels and effectively visualise it for the rest of the team and the business to see how the strategy will play out. This is a much simpler way of educating others on complex customer journeys than writing an explanation in words.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for a way to get your customer workflow ideas out of your head onto paper, Lucidspark is a great digital tool to do that. So easy to use and share with your colleagues whilst having the flexibility to have others pitch in to refine and develop your ideas. Happy I found this!
Intuitive and fun
What do you like best about the product?
I have only used it for a couple of times but Lucidspark seems to be very user friendly and easy to use.

So far I haven't noticed anything I disliked yet.
