Himanshu B
Sr. Quality Analyst
4.0

Himanshu B.: I'm Himanshu. I work as an analyst. I give this tool, Comindware Tracker, a rating of between four and five. For more reviews, click below. Before Comindware Tracker, we were using Creatio. It wasn't working as good as we expected it to be, because there was so many extensive features in that, that we were not able to integrate it with other tools, but Comindware Tracker solved that issues for us. And it was really, really helpful. There are many reasons I decided to go for this tool. First of all, it was easy to integrate with other Microsoft tools, such as Word, or SharePoint, especially I would say. And it was easy to make presentation or workflow diagrams for the business leaders. It was easy to interpret our ideas in form of graphs and charts, which was not possible as effectively as with the other tools, so that was one of the main reason. It was pretty easy to get started. We were initially getting some go-to training or to-do training from the vendor. And once set up, we were able to manage and customize it a little bit as per our need internally. And I would say it was pretty easy to set up and then go from the beginning. I would recommend this tool highly for anyone, especially a business analyst who is involved into so many meetings and presentation with different stakeholders at their workplace. This is a great tool in terms of representing your idea very effectively. It's easy for others to understand the documents and the diagrams that you would make with this tool. I would highly recommend for anyone at that level of organization.

5.0

Jawad K.: Hi, my name is Jawad. I'm the owner of A&A's General Retail Store, and I give Visio a five star rating. I attempted to make organizational charts and office plans on my own by creating them on my own. With Visio, it already comes together. So I chose to use Visio instead of trying to develop my own charts. The reason why I chose Visio is because it came with my school. Microsoft 365, it's already paid for. It comes with the whole thing. You can make organizational charts, office plans, and it's already free with Microsoft 365. And that's one of the reasons, plus the quality of the software is why I chose Visio. Getting started with Visio is easy. Go to Microsoft 365, it has all the apps, such as PowerPoint, Visio, Office, and it was free. It's easy just to pull up online, and plus you can have an app with your Windows software. It took me a few minutes and it wasn't hard at all. I recommend that you choose Visio. If you have a school or a business account with Microsoft 365, it's already free. You can just download the app or use it online. It's a great organizational tool, and it'll help you save time.
