The right tool for diagramming
What do you like best about the product?
There are other common software tools that people can use to build flowcharts and diagrams. But who wants to spend all their time getting lines and figures to connect properly, align, or have to build shapes, figures, or groups from scratch? Or spend time rebranding templates? With Lucidchart, I was able to create what I wanted in one hour what would have taken at least 4 hours with common presentation or publishing software. Having the right tool for the job helped me meet a tight timeline without stress. It's as simple as drag and drop the shapes you want, watch connectors "snap into place," and type in the text you want where you want it, while things resize automatically. It's all on a grid which makes spacing and alignment a breeze. Sharing the file for getting feedback from others was easy. This tool was well worth the price, which was very affordable. Whether you do this kind of work a lot, or just need something handy in a pinch, you'll love having Lucidchart at your disposal.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you are going to do a lot of collaboration with others, then you'll need a group license for others to fully work with the documents you create. You can export to PDF, but the editable files primarily reside in cloud storage that can only be accessed via the Lucid webpage or app. Therefore the files you create don't really feel like they completely belong to you.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Process flowcharts and swimlane diagrams are an amazing tool for not only understanding how we conduct business but for uncovering the opportunities for improvement that are almost always being masked by "workarounds" and extra effort being put in by our stakeholders to make the current process work. Some things only become evident when we put them on paper. When we do that, we have the ability to share, resolve, and improve the process. We save money, time. and headaches, and we can make recurring problems "go away for good."
