Lucidchart vs Mindjet MindManager comparison

"The ability to look at things in real time makes it a whole different experience, making work a little bit faster, helping you to more quickly finish stuff, making it easier for a team, and making projects easier to do."

"It does everything I need it to do."

"The ability for people to look at the diagram rather than reading through written documents saved time, and as a result, money."

"Lucidchart is a 10 out of 10 when it comes to documenting things such as processes, systems, and new teams. It's just so user-friendly. The fact that even if you've never used Lucidchart, if you take a template and adapt it, you'll inevitably find something to fit your needs, but it's also perfect for building from scratch. It's the ease of use, clarity, and the different functionalities that make it incredibly useful."

"Based on my experience, Lucidchart is better in terms of functionality and ease of use, and it is the tool to go for."

"Its real-time collaboration saves time; now, we can complete our discussions within 15 minutes rather than an hour or an hour and a half, and the ability for people to look at the diagram created in Lucidchart rather than reading through written documents has saved one to two hours daily."

"We are using Lucidchart a lot for documenting things, such as processes, systems, new teams, etc., and its ability to document processes is great, with major pluses being the sheer number of templates and the flexibility in the types of things that you can document, which lets us structure content in whatever format we want and simply modify templates for our purposes instead of creating them from scratch."

"In general, this product has improved our organization because it makes accessing up-to-date processes and planning a lot easier."

"The most valuable feature is being able to export to Microsoft Project."

"My advice to others is to get it, and use it! It's very good and useful."

"The metadata map provides operational navigation to complete business processes."

"The UML diagram that it gave me initially was a huge flow with a bunch of UML tables, and I wasn't going to need that many."

"I am not quite sure what different functionalities it provides as well as the difficulties other people are facing."

"The flowcharting feature would be improved if it had some kind of prediction capability that helped to create the diagrams, such as the ability to automatically join components with my database."

"As far as I know, LucidChart can’t be automated with Visual Basic .Net like Visio."

"Some of the things that were very frustrating for me were that I couldn't adjust the distance between each box."

"I don't know if I will be able to add some animations if I want to. I believe the problem may be the program's process flows but if I want to transfer it into a PPP or any other document, I can only do image transfer."

"In terms of improvement, there can be more templates. There are good templates but there could still be more."

"One downside is that you can only modify things online, but when you download work, you download it as an image."

"I don't know what the pricing is at now, but at the time the price hike upset me to the point that I stopped upgrading."

"The SQL based database connectivity and data access for analysis and reporting, both need some attention."

"Since I have been using such an old version, most of the improvements have already been made, but I would suggest moving forward with the times and creating a cloud-based solution for universal access."

"I had a quick glimpse of it. It was about 100 Canadian Dollars a year for just me. I don't know if there are any additional costs."

"I'm happy with the pricing of Lucidchart but I can't say I'm completely happy with it. It could be cheaper for what it offers, about $5 cheaper, or Lucid could charge $5 more and add more features, like automation. Right now, it's $15 per user per month... On the other hand, they have made their billing super-easy for users, such as for people who have to do expense reports. It is probably the easiest platform I'm using when it comes to billing for software as a service."

"At €167 per user per year, the pricing is slightly higher than Visio, but it's worth it."

"Pricing-wise, it is pretty fair. I don't really know what group pricing looks like, but right now, I pay $10 a month for my Lucid subscription. One thing I would say is that I do worry about my bosses being okay with paying $10 a month for every single employee because we would have around 20 people. It makes me a little nervous about whether they are going to pay $200 a month for people to be able to use this software. At the same time, from where I'm sitting, it's totally worth it. We save a thousand dollars from using this software. It's still a no-brainer."

"Its pricing is very affordable and reasonable for the features that it provides. I am using its basic plan, and for my usage, it is perfectly reasonable. It suits perfectly."

"The price and licensing are good."

"I was using the paid version, but at $12 USD per month, I canceled the plan because it was a little bit too expensive for me."

"We signed up for the month-to-month and it charged us all at once for the whole year. I believe we signed up for the $7.99 one. I think that was the price."

"The price was very good in the beginning, then the price increased from USD $99.00 to USD $249.00, then I stopped upgrading because what I needed was already there."
