Good performance, user-friendly, easy to create flowcharts and documentation
Pros and Cons
  • "Creating flowcharts and documentation is easy to do and the results are very nice."
  • "I would like to have access to more colorful and more vibrant icons."

What is our primary use case?

I primarily use Lucidchart for mobile app development.

How has it helped my organization?

Creating flowcharts and documentation is easy to do and the results are very nice.

I think that this solution is good in terms of its visualizations and it helps to understand process flows and workflows. The flowcharts and wireframes are very nice and easy to use.

The features for creating database schemas and modifying existing data structures are things that I have used a little bit. I find that this is a good tool when working with databases and it helps with strategy planning, ideation, and project planning. 

It is definitely important to use that Lucidchart accommodates both Mac and PC users. We have work that is done collaboratively in teams and we need to be able to share between team members. This is important regardless of platform.

Lucidchart allows for real-time collaboration, where multiple users can access the same version of a document. It has improved our project development process because we can discuss a journey map and a flowchart with developers in real-time. Using this tool, we are able to better interact with developers.

This ability to collaborate efficiently and in parallel has saved us time because it makes the job easier for our colleagues and teammates. I would estimate that it saves between three and four hours a day.

What is most valuable?

The entire tool is very good. The wireframing and flowchart are very nice features.

The interface is very user-friendly and supports drag and drop. You don't need to have technology or design knowledge in order to use it. Anybody can work with it.

What needs improvement?

I would like to have access to more colorful and more vibrant icons. Otherwise, the experience is very good.

For how long have I used the solution?

I am new to Lucidchart and have only been using it for a short time.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The performance is very nice. Even when the internet speed is low, it is stable and performs well.

How are customer service and support?

I have not been in contact with technical support.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Prior to implementing Lucidchart, I used SketchUp and SigmaNEST. I switched to Lucidchart because of the user-friendliness. The drag and drop functionality makes it very easy to use.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The price and licensing are good.

What other advice do I have?

We do not currently use the integration with other products but it is something that we are planning to do in the future. Similarly, we do not yet use the functionality that allows us to compare versions of documents.

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

Offers ease of deployment and good integration capabilities
Pros and Cons
  • "It is a scalable solution."
  • "The product's installation phase can be a difficult process if you don't have the deployment script with you since it is very important to know what you are doing when you are dealing with the setup process."

What is our primary use case?

I use the solution in my company for Microsoft Active Directory and for monitoring purposes.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features of the solution revolve around the ease of deployment it offers. It is also easy to understand about the product and its deployment process. I enjoy the fact that since Visio is a Microsoft product, everything is linked and synchronized in our company's environment.

What needs improvement?

From an improvement perspective, the setup process needs to be made easy.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have experience with Visio. My company is a customer of Microsoft.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is a stable solution.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is a scalable solution.

In my company, 48 people use the product.

How are customer service and support?

I haven't interacted much with the solution's technical support. I contacted the solution's technical support to deal with an issue with the offline products.

How was the initial setup?

The product's installation phase was okay. The product's installation phase can be a difficult process if you don't have the deployment script with you since it is very important to know what you are doing when you are dealing with the setup process. Visio's setup process is the same as Oracle's installation phase. If Visio is being installed in some company, it is important to have the script to help you know what you need to do since you can't install it on your own and make it work. In general, you need to know what to select to install the product properly.

The solution is deployed using Azure's cloud services.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The product is expensive, but it is cheaper if you buy it as a part of a bundle or an enterprise-level agreement.

What other advice do I have?

I recommend the product to those who plan to use it. As an IT professional, we don't like to confuse people by giving them multiple options. It is better for people to explore different products, and later on, if, as IT professionals, we find the products are not compatible with the users' requirements, then we might suggest some tool with better features to such users.

It is neither too difficult nor too easy to learn to use Visio.

The product's integration capabilities with other platforms have helped improve our company's overall workflow.

I rate the overall tool an eight out of ten.

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Microsoft Azure
