Lucidchart Reviews

Lucidchart is my go-to software for making system diagrams, modeling data, and analyzing and bettering business processes. It works wonderfully for each of these purposes. Using Lucid is a breeze because of its drag-and-drop interface.

The functionality of Lucidchart are behind those of some installed alternatives because it is a web-based tool. I also find it frustrating that there appears to be no method to attach a connector to a form in such a way that the connector would automatically re-orient itself when I re-position the shape, as is often the case when trying to optimize a procedure.

I love, the cooperation portion of it. That I do not have to send out ppts or something, but rather collaborate on stuff in the tool and get the best result because of that. It saves so much time.

The welcome page is very crowded, There are all these templates popping up. I'm storing all direct links to my drawings, because I find it very hard to find them otherwise. Also I do not like, that I can get to the list of my drawings from a different page, then the drawing one.

The clean interface and real-time collaboration helps boost efficiency and creativity as we can quickly take an idea and break it down to iterate on together.

Performance can be slower when dealing with larger, more complex diagrams. Additionally, the learning curve can be quite steep, especially when moving beyond basic diagrams and functionality, needs better guidance.

Lucidchart is specifically designed to create flowcharts like business process models, data flow diagrams, organizational charts, sequence diagrams, architecture diagrams etc. I love its feature set and integrations as compared to other diagramming tools like draw.io or Microsoft Visio. As it is an online web application, it allows multiple team members to collaborate and contribute on the same diagram in real time. You can leave feedback or comments on any object and attach notes.Lucidchart has plethora of options for different flowchart shapes, objects, lines or pre-built templates, which eventually saves up a lot of your time.

I don't have many negatives about this software but one major limitation with Lucidchart is that there is no desktop app available, so you will always need to use it in the browser. Also, sometimes when I am moving the objects, the lines/connectors/links between those objects mess up completely and I end up doing a lot of readjustments.

I like Lucidchart because it's easy to use, lets people work together in real time, and can support a lot of different types of diagrams. It has a lot of templates and shape files, is accessible from anywhere in the world, works well with other tools, and has strong security features. This makes it a useful platform for making diagrams with others and for professional use.

It is little expensive. It takes time to learn how to use advanced features, and the need for better offline access.

Lucidchart has a robust set of diagramming features making it possible to design any kind of diagram with ease. It has AI design enabled features which help draft very accurate and appealing diagrams. Lucidchart also makes it possible for us to collaborate on our diagramming projects which help us achieve very productive results.

There has not been any major issues with Lucidchart whatsoever. It has given us no cons.

Lucidchart comes with flowchart templates that guided us on how to draw effective flowcharts. There is no coding instead it is dragging and dropping shapes which makes diagramming very easy. The collaboration tools makes is possible for us to work together on the same diagramming tasks.

The experience with Lucidchart has always been on the right side. Nothing negative to comment about.

I loved the intuitive interface and the vast library of shapes and templates to make every possible diagram. And the real-time collaboration functionality makes it easy to iterate with colleagues on a diagram.

A lot of the most useful diagram types are locked behind paywalls on Lucidchart, and the pricing is quite steep unless you're spending every single day diagramming. If you're on the free tier, you're extremely limited on which shapes and diagrams you can use.

User interface and functionality are amazing for a web app. It honestly feels like you are using OmniChart, OmniGraffle, or other traditional computer app. It’s hard to believe Lucid is operating wholly in a web browser.

The inability to create a shared link for a non-Lucid user to access is really bothersome. This functionality is present in Lucidspark - the “brainstorming” companion to Lucidchart. But not in the latter. I’ve recommended adding this feature to Lucidchart. It feels like a no-brainer.Also, it’s not inexpensive. Would love to see the cost lowered so that I could afford to purchase licenses for some of my external collaborators.

Lucidchart helped us come to an understanding that better work results are relevant if you have a clear visuals of the work. It offers quality diagraming tools like flowcharts which makes it easy to have typical representation on the entire work process from start to completion. With Lucidchart, we are able to understand what work is needed of us and this helps us keep focus on what we are doing. Plus there us no manual drawing of flowcharts as we can use the AI tools to the work for us.

Our great times with Lucidchart has always lasted since the start and we have not seen and flaws about it.
