I have been building diagrams
What do you like best about the product?
Super easy to navigate. I didn't have training completed and i was able to build diagrams right away
What do you dislike about the product?
Would consider adding more interactions and UI/UX features. Meaning I want to make sure it is not only easy to navigate but also it is engaging, interactive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping me to build diagrams and wireframes
Almost every diagram can be created here!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the variety of different objects you can place in each sheet. So many options that it can really make your sheet look a lot nicer.
What do you dislike about the product?
You have to pay for some objects, but it makes sense.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me organize my thoughts on how i'd like to create my projects.
Great for Workflow Mapping
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to customize my charts to meet my needs. It's great that I can start with a template and build my own group of icons from the premade sets to utilize for my design.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it's a little annoying how easy it is to accidentally add flow arrows from points, when I am only trying to click and move my icons around on the chart.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucidchart allows me to create on-brand diagrams and workflow maps that are easily readable to our clients and internal org. I love that when I have to create a new chart from scratch that I can duplicate one of my old ones and use it as a template.
Lucidchart is the best tool for helping me put my thoughts to "paper"
What do you like best about the product?
Lucidchart is the best tool for helping me put my thoughts to "paper" when I'm attempting to explain plans to team members. Being able to draw out and diagram procedures, functionality, etc quickly makes life so much easier for calls with remote employees
What do you dislike about the product?
Since everything in Lucidchart is done on graph-style pages, sometimes it can be hard to get things to line up exactly if I'm trying to line words with an image, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows me to present thoughts, ideas, and designs to remote employees where I would usually use a whiteboard, etc.
Architecting collaboration made easy
What do you like best about the product?
Architecting applications are simple with available templates also easy to collaborate with colleagues on design improvements.
What do you dislike about the product?
Conversion of free accounts to corporate accounts was painful, and I lost a few diagrams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The critical problem it solved was interactive collaboration during the design phase.
Great Software for Organizing Data
What do you like best about the product?
Lucidchart has been pivotal in helping me organize rules, statutes, key ideas, and more into a comprehensive format to present to others, easily share, and reference quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much! I think some of the logistics mechanics for moving around and formatting the boxes could be a bit more intuitive, but it's not too difficult to figure out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucidchart helps me take what would otherwise be a very complicated few paragraphs or complicated table on Word/Google Documents and synthesize it into an easily reference-able chart.
Easy Online Charts that get the job done
What do you like best about the product?
I love that it is online, and we can share the charts with other people even if they are not in our company. With the previous chart software, we could not do that. Lucid charts have revolutionized our IT department and the way we document things.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not a downside to Lucid charts. If I were to name one thing it would be that sometimes when Importing from Visio it does not quite get the formatting correctly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our phone system is mainly text-based and Lucid charts helps us document the flow of calls coming into our system. It helps us at a glance know how the system works and were we need to make changes it
Valuable product--UI/UX has room for improvement for newcomers
What do you like best about the product?
It does the job and has been helpful in diagramming out software systems and data flows. It is the biggest tool we use in our company, and collaborating and sharing Lucidcharts has been easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
No dealbreakers, just suggestions: as a junior dev, they could add some useful templates and guides that are easy to understand for specific use cases--including styling guidelines for your use case. Maybe that was there, but I wasn't 100% satisfied after using it. But if you were to ask ChatGPT 4 to provide a mock for your use case using styling standards, it would probably be able to do so, or at least describe what you might want to do with high accuracy--so why can't Lucid do that?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For me as a junior dev, it provides the most value in mapping systems. It has been easier to onboard myself to a large company with many interacting software systems thanks to Lucid.
Very intuitive and simple way to create flow charts and org charts
What do you like best about the product?
The software is very intuitive. It knows what you are trying to do and anticipates it. It completes lines, boxes, objects that it believes you are working on. In my case, it's almost always correct. There are many options and colors to choose from and it's a very user friendly program. I was able to use without any training and just figure it out for the basic functions.
What do you dislike about the product?
I was creating an org chart and it was pretty straight forward. The only thing I couldn't figure out was splitting a box into 2 colors. But I think some training could help that. I was able to figure it out using a work around. I would like to utilize this even more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows team members (especially new employees) to see the org chart and how the company reports into each other. It helps to see what the different teams look like and helps understand the hierarchy of the org.
Simple Flowchart Creation with Power
What do you like best about the product?
I've tried to create flow charts within Google Docs and hacked together flow charts in other products, but Lucidchart makes it much easier and straightforward to create them.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly there's not much that I dislike. It wasn't difficult to learn, nor was it difficult to use. If there's anything, it would be the cost. I can use it for my work - as they pay for it - but for personal use, it's a bit costly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to quickly create charts, whether flow charts, diagrams for my code bases, or best practices for a process/QA. It has been very useful in letting me quickly create all these documents.
