Effortless Remote Collaboration, Seamless Jira Integration
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite for over three years, primarily for team collaboration, planning, capacity estimation, story breakdown, and project planning. I really appreciate the whiteboarding, story estimation, and diagramming features, which we've come to like a lot more over time. The suite's ability to surface practical templates out of the box was particularly valuable, making the initial setup easy and helping us find the best templates for our specific use case. This tool has significantly simplified collaboration for my largely remote team, allowing everyone to gather in a single place for planning, capacity estimation, and retrospectives, effectively solving problems associated with distributed collaboration. I particularly value creating stories and tasks directly within Lucid and am looking forward to using the Jira integration more extensively. Identifying dependencies and charting out project plans has become much easier, significantly benefiting our workflow. The templates and the potential for integration with tools like Jira are incredibly useful, supporting our Scrum processes and weekly life cycles seamlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like more features around Jira integration. The current functionality feels limited and enhancing it could improve our workflow efficiency.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use the Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite to facilitate remote collaboration, enabling my team to effectively engage in planning, capacity estimation, retrospectives, and project management. It helps us identify dependencies and chart project plans better, streamlining our distributed collaboration efforts.
Excellent for collaboration with easy controls

The variety of shapes and flowchart symbols make creating any flowcharts or data flow diagrams simple and quick. The UI is also very intuitive and easy to learn, with a very useful follow feature to check what others are contributing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Under stress, it can struggle slightly with many collaborators, but under 25 users it is perfectly fine.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are no other, even partially free, options for a large number of users to collaborate simultaneously on large mindmaps or diagrams without significant lag or unintuitive UI.
Effortless Collaboration on User Journeys and Workflows

Powerful Visualization and Data Linking for 24/7 Clarity with Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite allows me to create flowcharts and org charts which help me visualize my company for 24/7.
Data linking and conditional formatting is another advantage that I realize with this tool which help me connect spreadsheets to any shape to allow me visualize data from other sources as shapes to better understand them.

What do you dislike about the product?
It is too unfortunate that I wasn’t able to use both Lucidchart and Lucidspark Android applications when I hadn’t upgraded since they only allowed Team and Enterprise users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
UML sequencing allows me to seamlessly to generate diagrams with builtin or my own code with the help of LVCS.

Excellent Templates & Real-Time Collaboration, But Needs Mermaid Code and Dark Mode
What do you like best about the product?
The templates are great and serve as a very useful base. I love that people can work together on projects in real-time. Very convenient for remote teams. The ease of copying and pasting the work onto documents also makes me inclined to use Lucid.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wouldn't call it a downside, but would have loved the feature of adding mermaid chart code to the flowcharts. This helps with ease of editing. Also the ability to visualize the work in both light and dark mode would've helped.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping my remote team work together to create flowcharts that are essential for work.
LucidSpark: Powerful Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
LucidSpark is the tool that I like the best. I use it almost every day. It provides simple, yet powerful collaboration tools and visual activities that allow me to easily brainstorm and refine ideas with my team in real time. The integration with Jira is also super helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing that I've found difficult about using Lucid is the lack of availability of some features with different license tiers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaborative software design, facilitating retrospectives, building shared understanding, creating and maintaining feature delivery plans, creating and maintaining longer-term feature roadmaps, visualizing and presenting information
Intuitive Collaboration, Powerful Features—But Watch for Learning Curve and Pricing
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite is its intuitive and user-friendly interface, which makes it easy to quickly visualize ideas and collaborate in real time with team members. The suite offers robust integration with other productivity tools, and its wide range of templates and flexible diagramming options streamline complex workflows, boosting overall productivity.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite is that some advanced features can be difficult to discover without thorough exploration, which means new users may face a steeper learning curve. Additionally, occasional performance lag when working on large, complex diagrams can slow down workflow, and the pricing for premium features might be a barrier for smaller teams or individual users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite helps solve the challenge of communicating complex ideas across distributed teams by providing a central platform for real-time diagramming, brainstorming, and architectural planning. This greatly enhances team alignment, reduces misunderstandings, and speeds up decision-making. For my workflow, its integrations with productivity and cloud tools make system design, process mapping, and collaborative documentation seamless, ultimately improving project outcomes and developer efficiency.
