Great for virtual collaborations

  • May 14, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
That this connects people in our virtual world and provides a space for quick brainstorming sessions.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much buy-in from folks that had never used this product. Were overwhelmed if they were new to it so hard to start a new meeting to conduct a brainstorming session with those unfamiliar.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Outlining processes to identify 'waste'. It provides that whiteboard brainstorming session that is missing in our virtual world now.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
In our new world it's so hard to have great, productive, efficient brainstorming sessions with everyone at the table contributing. Lucidspark provides that space and allows the team to come together and converse, vote, draw out their thoughts on any project or process that is being reviewed.

Lucidchart is currently king.

What do you like best about the product?
Lucidcharts cloud based platform - Due to Lucidchard being a fully cloud based software tool, I am able to initiate diagramming projects on any operating system, using any web browser and device type of choice.

Collaboration - Lucidchart has changed the way I work together with my team, by making it possible for me to co-author charts , process maps etc, add comments on team diagrams , exchange chat-messages with team-mates whilst we are all working on a diagramming project in real time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Perhaps, I will like Lucidchart to provide me with more templates, which cut across multiple use cases. At the current time, Lucidcharts template libraries only cover an handful of use cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucidchart enable me create charts and process maps, which I use in mitigating risks and identifying gaps within my organizations existing structures and processes.

I love Lucidspark

  • May 11, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the ease of use and how similar it is to Visio yet you can use one document to include a plethora of information, like a brain dump that makes it simple to understand large complex problems in one space. I like all the options from strategic planning to swim lanes and mindmaps are features I use the most.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing that I dont like about Lucidspark is the usability on my iPad. The program works way better on my desktop. The mindmap on my ipad drives me crazy cause it isnt as easy and it doesnt look the same to me. Maybe it's user error but I have spent a lot of time and wasted a lot of time before just doing mind maps on my desktop.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Lucidspark to solve communication problems and realized thebenefits of having many different elements in one place rather than in several documents all in different places.

Intuitive and time-saver

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy how seamless the Jira integration is. It is perfect for doing story mappings. You can easily create your tasks within the tool and have a perfectly structured mapping with your epics and issues created as you go.
It is perfect for doing Design Thinking exercises online.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be beneficial to have an icon/image library or pre-defined libraries for a faster definition of ideas and layouts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem that is solved is the online collaboration nowadays, where primarily everyone is working from home, and we don't have a whiteboard we can all brainstorm together. Lucidspark is an outstanding representation of that digital whiteboard.

It just works

  • May 06, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Collaborating remotely with a dozen people is not easy, but thanks to Lucidspark, we can work together on one screen simultaneously. I have seen a lot of benefit to our sprint review meetings thanks to Lucidspark and it's ability to allow us to actually show eachother what we are thinking rather than just trying to describe it. It's ability to organize our voting and compliment a teams call has been fabulous.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user experience isn't the best; most features seem to be locked behind menus that are hard to navigate and the zoom function is tied to the scroll wheel which doesn't always function as expected on a Mac, which is a common design problem for web apps or pc apps with a mac version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With the recent world problems, many of us are working remotely now that were not before. In-office, we could crowd around a whiteboard and discuss, this style of brainstorming is much harder to do remotely, but Lucidspark has helped fix that problem by giving a virtual equivalent of that shared space. We can virtually crowd around "a whiteboard" and fill it with ideas, erase, create, replace, reason, and think about.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try it out! Nobody knows your use case as well as you do, and you can get started with Lucidspark for free! So try it out for yourself and see if it can help you brainstorm by yourself or with a team. We found it especially helpful for larger team meetings when collaborating over voice is difficult just because of the number of people. It provides another avenue to express ourselves and work together.

Best Collaboration tool in the Market Ive ever used

  • April 29, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The UI is really smooth, and The colaboration features are really great, I'm able to see my team mates share and add stuff in real time, the sticky notes feature is way cooler. It helps us a lot with brainstorming. It shows the users who are actually logged in the platform in real time so that I can keep track of the people who are actually using the platform in real time which is super great and awesome.

The collaborative feature is really great that im able to see the changes in real time while collaborating with team mates which is super cool to have as a feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its very irritating when it asks for a subscription from the free tier, It also doesnt have a dark mode, It sometimes make it difficult to stare at night for a long period of time. apart from that there isnt much that I dislike from Lucid spark because the core features and functionalities that its prvoiding is super great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to brainstorm and share ideas at work, hence we work in the sofware industry , Im able to add features and and get opinions from my team mates and seniors before actually deciding what to do, which is super cool.
We develop all sorts of work flow diagrams architecturall diagrams, client brainstorm sessions and even fun interactive sessions at screen share calls, even I have experience playing pictionary online using lucid spark, This could be a fun and interactive way for kids and corganizational instituions to use during such a pandemic and work from hoome situation,
Recommendations to others considering the product:
its really a great platform to have you organization onboarded , especially when youre working in the IT industry. THis will be a life saver for all the users in the industry.
