Lucidchart vs Mindjet MindManager comparison

"The wireframe and mock-up features have been the most useful so far. It's easy to create the mock-ups and then communicate to our development team what they need to look like. Lucidchart's capabilities for visualizing and understanding process flows or workflows is very good as well. I'm able to easily use any style of box that I need to create on a flowchart, to effectively communicate to our development team."

"Real-time collaboration has definitely saved us time; I haven't had to call people back and forth and make changes like that, whereas we're both just editing in a single document and it saves around an hour or two a day."

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

"The biggest lesson that I have learned from using this product is that I don't need to struggle with creating org charts; it's quick and easy to use."

"Using this platform has helped me to realize efficiencies because I can visualize what I'm trying to tell the person."

"Ever since I have discovered Lucidchart, I've been kind of an evangelist for it because I've been doing a lot of work in it, and I really enjoy working in it."

"Lucidchart helped us to realize efficiencies in the projects we use it for. I can show people pictures, and I can change things in a meeting and then email it by the end of the meeting. Because most places we go, especially now with everybody in-home office, I'm going to have great internet access, and that just makes it easier to be able to change things quickly while we're in a meeting and go, "Oh, you changed this. Oh, okay.", and then send it to them as a proof and send it as a PDF or send them a link. That works great. That saves time and accelerates a sale."

"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."

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

"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 system is a bit clumsy when it comes to stylizing to match corporate imaging styles."

"A couple of times when I tried to move a line, connecting two shapes on an organizational chart, occasionally the line doesn't move as intuitively as I think it should."

"A couple of times when I tried to move a line, connecting two shapes on an organizational chart, occasionally the line doesn't move as intuitively as I think it should. I have to fiddle around with it a few times to get it to do what I want it to do."

"The main improvement I would like to see is for them to improve the help section on the flow charts or on the formatting."

"One of the things that I find frustrating is that all of our Tableau information is on a server, so when I send that out people can't open it and use it."

"When I download a flowchart as a PDF file, it breaks it up. I would like to see the continuous display of flow charts, even if they are larger than one page."

"There were some things I wish were a little bit more user-friendly. For instance, when you're putting all the stuff onto a document or PDF, there's a set limit of width and height. It would have been very nice in certain situations to be able to drag people on the far edges and move them back up so that everything fits nicely onto the page."

"The layering is something that can be improved because sometimes, it is confusing for me when I'm trying to get to the layer that I want to edit."

"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 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."

"One of the reasons we were able to get approval within two hours from our management was that it was cheap enough. We have a 3% or 10% collaboration package, which comes out to be 70 bucks a year. It was very cheap, and we had no issues actually getting the full version. It was very affordable for a business."

"I pay $95 a year for it. It seems like a reasonable price."

"I was using the free version of Lucidchart, which was very helpful."

"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."

"The price and licensing are good."

"There is a nominal charge for the paid version of the product. They have a free version available and from what I could see, there was not much difference between it and the pro version."

"The pricing and licensing are fine, though I wish they didn't require you to buy the licenses in batches of five."

"Lucidchart's pricing model is not excessive, as compared to similar products. It is pretty much in line with everyone else."

"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."
