Simple & Effective - A student's perspective on Lucidspark

  • April 06, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Lucidspark is hands down the best whiteboard-like digital product that I've ever used. Easy to use, yet surprisingly powerful. Lightweight, Quick & Snappy. A breath of fresh air when contrasted against the plethora of collaboration and mind-mapping software on the market (the ones that I've actively used at least).
What do you dislike about the product?
Lucidspark is awesome (in both theory and practice), and It was a blast to use. But... I do find the price a tad too expensive (as a student on a tight budget). So, sadly, the free version of Lucidspark will have to suffice for now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I mainly used Lucidspark for mind mapping, in both personal projects and school-/work-related assignments. Lucidspark's adaptability made a project's initial workload much easier (Ideation) by giving its users the ability to work with the product in their own way. I personally loved to use Lucidspark like a notebook, noting down ideas and thoughts that related to the projects that I was working on. Later, allowing me to organize them as I pleased (often by color-coding them and categorizing them).


Need to take notes during a lecture? Say no more! You can even share a workspace with a group, allowing you to take notes collaboratively.

Working in groups? Perfect! Create a new workspace or invite your team to an already existing one. (Real-time collaboration)

Don't know where to start? Use a pre-made template... or two!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
In my opinion, Lucidspark is best used in smaller groups & in a fast-paced/iteration-focused work environment. Business Development, Design Thinking, and MVP-Ideation. Lucidspark would probably work excellently in a Lean-/Agile-based project pipeline.

The paid versions of the product all offer different perks/functions, and my advice would be to activate a trial or buy both Lucidspark (For real-time collaboration) & the closely related app "Lucidchart" (Flowcharts, mockups & simple data-based visualization).

Try it out! Lucidspark (at the moment of writing this) offers a free trial for almost all their paid plans. Brainstorm some ideas, check out their templates, and... most importantly, have fun! Because real-time collaboration and project conceptualization shouldn't be a chore.

Awesome diagramming software

  • April 06, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite feature is the tool's flexibility and the numerous options for creating successful business flow charts and use scenarios. Additionally, I can easily share this knowledge with coworkers. Lucidchart is my first choice for system design, flowchart, and business use cases.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd also like to see a larger range of graphical types. Since the majority of my graphic design is used to express details and meaning, providing a graphical representation would be helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Lucidchart to explain business theory, architectural design, and community discussions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try and a shot. I believe that seeing it first hand will be more informative then looking online.

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to use the virtual whiteboard that helps remote teams ideate and collaborate online. Also, the amazing resources such as assisted grouping, sharing customer experience, voting, and setting activity timers. Templates make me look like a rock star.
What do you dislike about the product?
Being a paid platform limits the number of people able to use it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I don't have any problems.

Great way to draw up block diagrams and mind maps

What do you like best about the product?
the lines and how you can add/remove arrows intuitively. Also like how the lines autocurve when routing between boxes
What do you dislike about the product?
need to convert to LucidChart from LucidSpark to embed in Confluence page. That is a pain. Also the interface between the two is slightly different and that leads to a little confusion.

drawing block diagrams and mind maps from brainstorming sessions

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is so easy to use. The UX is very simple and straightforward. I love the collaboration tools, like the emojis and the whiteboards, and how simple it is to create a lead funnel or a customer life cycle.
What do you dislike about the product?
At first, I was confused about the difference between lucid spark and lucid chart and wasn't sure which one I needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can have a conversation with a client about their lead's lifecycle and then swiftly sketch it up in Lucidspark to share with them and confirm or add things.

Keeps me organized

  • April 06, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Time management and never missing a deadline. This is the only product that I have been using to keep me on track of all the task at work. I use it almost everyday and this has been so helpful. I never found a product that helps you stay organized. I have been using a lot of sticky notes and I feel like I waste a lot of paper, havinga digital notes really do help me stay focused but also I can go back and check what all task I did compared to a physical sticky that you throw once you are done with the task.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it little tricky to navigate the website, but other than that, this product is super helpful. If the website could provide a tutorial on how to use the product, this will be a 10/10.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Definitely Task management and also group collaboration. This has helped me and my coworkers to stay on track also share our yearly goals and progress. This has been a very useful tool for the team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think everyone should give it a try. This is a straightforward tool to use and can be used with the team. Also, help you keep track of your progress, which helps me keep organized and never miss a deadline. I definitely recommend this to everyone This is the best tool out in the market, and I would rate this product 10/10. I highly recommended it.
