Way better than visio!

Reviewed on 29/9/2019

Love it. I was able to make complex flow charts on my first time using the software.

Love it. I was able to make complex flow charts on my first time using the software.

Pros

Lucidchart is a far superior product to the more traditional flowchart software Visio. The simple layout, easy sharing and the ability to build complex flow charts make Lucidchart the best out there. Additionally, I find the templates for other projects, that are not flow chart related, very useful.

Cons

My only issue with Lucid is that, at certain points, where the details of lines and boxes can get very cluttered, I find it hard to navigate the layers and often end up dragging out boxes and lines that I do not wish to, even though they are not selected originally. This is very rarely an issue and it just takes a few minutes to fix, but it is an issue.

Reasons for Choosing Lucidchart

Lucid is much easier to use and more in line with the other platforms we use.

Basic Software For Ease

Reviewed on 5/10/2021

Pros

This is a basic flowchart software that we used in lieu of Microsoft Visio. It was easy to use and to learn, with easy to follow help online for flowchart creation. The main benefit we found with this software was it's integration with Google Suites. With our company using Google Suites, this software easily integrates with other Google software and email.

Cons

It is a very basic software with limited features that we used, which was flowchart management. We used it for a short while as our company transitioned to Google-based software, however we've since gone back to Visio for it's better features and functionality.

Lucidchart exceed my expectations and nowadays it is an indispensable tool in my daily life

Pros

The UI is very intuitive and allows me to create a lot of differents diagrams (UML, flowcharts, mental maps...)

Cons

It is required to have a connection to the internet, so maybe an offline version could be a good idea.
