Great tool!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how you are easy to create flow charts and organize thoughts through this tool
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe adding a screenshot feature into the application would be better?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since our business requires creating progressions in tasks, we use lucid chart to create flowcharts.
I use LucidChart daily. Love that it's cloud based. Wish it were a little cleaner, like Visio
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that LucidChart is cloud based and saves in real time.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not as clean as Visio is. For instance, I create a lot of business process diagrams with swim lanes. In Visio, the swim lanes are very clean, it's easy to add additional lanes, and modify existing ones. I feel like Lucid hasn't implemented swim lanes as well. I also wish that it had the line functionality so it's easier to line elements up on the screen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LucidChart for business process diagrams. I like that it's cloud based and easy to share diagrams with others
Easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
I was completely new to lucidchart two months ago and it was very easy to pick up and use immediately.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the controls can be a little finicky. It can be hard to select exactly the line or box that you want sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are mapping process flows to easily share with others at our company.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is very easy to pick up and use with little to no training.
Easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
It was intuitive to use. I use LucidChart to plan email nurturing workflows. It helps me come up with a plan before I start designing and coding an email series.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have only used the free version, so I can't comment on the full version. But the only thing that bugs me is sometimes when I put text inside another shape, it is hard to select the text. It only selects the outer shape a good portion of the time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As I saidabove, I use it to plan email workflows that I can then share with my colleagues to get their feedback.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
They give a free trial for the paid version, so I would recommend trying that out to see if it will be worth it for you and your company.
Orgcharts
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use in creating org maps is incredible helpful
What do you dislike about the product?
Templates are not great, they require me to make a lot of customization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mapping an organizational hieararchy
Great for making flowcharts and diagrams
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easily you can choose shapes and arrows to rapidly make charts. It takes no time at all.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don’t like how you can’t make arrows that originate or sync with existing arrows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Flowcharting for user flows and annotating app views
Easy and intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
Nearly every application has a learning curve that requires at least some googling to figure out. LucidChart is so easy to learn, with such an intuitive interface, that I jumped right in and began creating diagrams without any prior experience with the app.
What do you dislike about the product?
I usually have at least 1 or 2 things to mention that could be improved, but LucidChart just nails it. No complaints.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been able to avoid purchasing (and constantly upgrading/updating) Visio. LucidChart is web-based, so updates happen on their side, and we can add new users anytime.
Best Web App for Charts and Diagrams
What do you like best about the product?
At the time I tried Lucidchart, I was testing the ability to work solely on a Chromebook. I stumbled across Lucidchart, and I love that it seamlessly connects to Google Drive and that you can work within the browser. And, for a fee, you can import your VSDs. Outstanding.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost. It isn't that bad, but I am not a fan of the software subscription model that most web applications have adopted. I understand that for smaller companies, the subscription model is the best for them. It's a personal preference.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Wireframing websites and flowcharts--like Visio, it allows me to visualize the creation process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Prepare to be pleasantly surprised. Lucidchart packs a lot of powerful features into a lightweight, easy-to-use package,
Easy and efficient
What do you like best about the product?
I needed something to make charts. Lucidchart makes it easy to make charts. It's a no-brainer.
What do you dislike about the product?
Every once in a while the arrows will try to connect with pieces of my chart I don't want them to. Other than that, it's great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visualizing a process is so helpful - no one wants to read paragraphs of text to figure out what you're talking about. Lucidchart makes it easy to create and share charts with my team.
Kind of easy to use but not intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
It is great to have this tool as a possibility to use and can get the job done.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is extremely slow and nitpicky - hard to understand what buttons do which thing. Definitely not user friendly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I made organizational charts with this product.
