### "A tool to make your diagrams look attractive"

January 10, 2020

5.0

The overall experience of using Creately is very much favorable as It helped me to create very informative diagrams for my projects. It is a well-equipped tool on which you can rely to get a satisfying output.

Pros

Creately is a great tool to design concise diagrams for various purposes such as mind maps, use case diagrams etc. It provides you an easy-to-adapt designing environment together with relevant designing objects for your diagrams. Creately gives you the ability to add collaborators for your projects which makes it easier to communicate while working. Even when you are offline, you can continue your work with Creately which can boost your productivity as well.

Cons

Downloading the diagrams as PDF files is not possible in the free version of Creately. You have to upgrade your account for that. The capacity of the free version of the tool is limited to maximum of 3 collaborators and one folder with five public documents.

### "Smooth, effective diagramming - Used it for more than 6 years!"

March 28, 2019

5.0

Amazing experience. I have managed to impress many a peer and organization leadership with beautiful diagrams created using Creately.

Pros

Creately provides an amazing number of pre-built templates and objects for use. The controls are intuitive and performance of the application is quite fluid. I've used it across teams and alone for a very long time and have always found the end result of my diagramming efforts to be quite beautiful while also effectively getting the message across.

Cons

Creately can sometimes be a bit clunky to handle, but most of these issues have been ironed out over time.

### "Online flowchart maker."

December 30, 2019

4.0

Create is a very good alternative for desktop flowchart and mind application. The only problem is with its workflow. Workflow is really a strong feature and creating a flow chart is very easy.

Pros

Online diagram making is really good for several reasons and accessing through any device connected through the internet is one of them. The signup process is really very easy with google login. After creating a new flowchart it is very simple to create and with collaboration tool sharing is easy. With an inbuild collaboration tool, any member can update so I don't need to open and update myself, it solves a lot repeating and time-consuming work for me.

Cons

Add document is under the folder and not available from the dashboard? I found this very unusual. No private project so I don't invite too many users to see what is the performance.

We're glad you cut down the repeating and time-consuming tasks using Creately. Add document button appears in any folder where you have the edit access. If you meant the "Recent" documents section we will consider adding a button there as well.

### "Very good product for teachers"

March 18, 2022

5.0

Overall, my experience is very positive. It is very colorful and is very good for kids but also good for business applications

Pros

Creately is very intuitive. The important features are Drag and Drop, it is easy to represent the relationships between different concepts and create hierarchies. Also very good for flowcharts, diagrams and organizational structures. It is visually appealing and more colorful compared with say Visio. It integrates well with other applications

Cons

I did not experience any issues. It does not have a free version as far as I know

### "Most easiest online diagramming tool"

March 17, 2019

4.0

I like most the simplicity interface and ease of use of that tool. This online diagramming tool is very suitable for students and office employee both. I more prefer to complete small project with this tool and I used that tool several times for my different projects. They have also a downloadable desktop and mobile app version for diagramming. And another essential thing is that tool supports integration with Jira.

Pros

Very easy to create a diagram, you can draw UML, Flowchart, DFD, ER, BPMN, Venn, Network, Wireframe diagram, Gantt chart, and many more diagram, chart and map using this tool. The interface and features is very user friendly and simple. Have option for import and export your diagram with multiple format. That online tool has a vast collection of diagram template that help you to find your suitable design. Also has many important diagramming element and color effect. You can edit, modify & change your diagram at any time.

Cons

Sometimes the online server could hang for few times and slowly loading the diagram. This tool can not work properly sometimes when you load a previously saved working diagram.

Pros

This software it's really easy to use and have differents technologies that you use in this software to understand in a easy way, this software it's amazing and useful.

### "Not very intuitive, poor UI/UX, and extremely limited design functionality"

February 7, 2018

2.0

Some pre-made shapes/templates can get your diagrams created fairly quickly

Pros

It seems to be a bit more complicated than it needs to be, yet, there is an excellent support community with help desk articles on pretty much anything question you may have.

Cons

Very frustrating to see that they require you to pay for some basic 'premium' features that are available for free on hundreds of more intuitive platforms like Google Draw.

### "Nice diagrams for free"

April 4, 2018

5.0

Pros

I liked how nice and smooth the diagrams created with Creately look. Though UML charts look pretty dull, with Creately you can make them look modern. Basically, it offers option for plenty types of charts, but using it for customer journeys and flowcharts is the best.

Cons

I wish free version wouldn't have limitation by the amount of charts. Besides, sometimes style is not applied to all objects and management of arrows attached to objects can be a pain.

### "I love creately"

February 27, 2023

5.0

When I was an undergraduate, I had to create different types of diagrams and I was able to overcome those with the help of creatley.

Pros

I never create a diagram from the first step. What I do is, I go through the tons of templates and find a similar diagram that matches to my scenario and then edit it. I'm still doing the exact thing and that really saves my time. If I feel like I need help, then I share my diagram with someone else and get their help.

Cons

One day app was refreshed and I lost everything . That was the only bad thing happened to me.

I use creately as it is the only app I know that is complete enough for all kinds of diagrams. Plus it's free <3 There are still some bugs, but there are always workarounds. Overall really great experience

Pros

\- number of features - free plan - copy/paste - symbols databases - sticky links between elements - export as image

Cons

\- no private project for free plan - bugs with links labels - bugs with copy/paste of large amount of elements - bugs with styling

### "Great for generating diagrams for publication"

March 29, 2019

5.0

I've had a great experience over the past several years with Creately and it's an important tool for my journal article publication development process for describing my tools pipeline, how patients move throughout my study, etc. Also useful for prototyping user interface designs and quickly iterating through various options.

Pros

This is the quickest way to generate great looking, high quality business process (BPMN) diagram images suitable for publication . I've published several diagrams over the past several years that I create with Creately and they look great in print. Usability and ease of use are excellent.

Cons

There's always more complicated diagrams that could be added that I may or may not use, but I wouldn't want to add to the complexity, as its already at the right complexity for my current needs.

### "Super Easy Diagrams and Flowcharts"

December 3, 2019

5.0

Creately has made it easy to quickly put together diagrams to show instead of tell - always the best way to make your point when working with a public that has a short attention span.

Pros

Though Creately is easy to use from scratch, the number of templates they have available is fantastic and it is rare to have to start with bare bones. Fabulous template variety.

Cons

No real cons, using the public version, which has limitations for collaboration (limited to 3) it really hasn't been a detriment as this is a tool that is often used by one of us to create a map or process flow that has already been vetted by several collaborators.

Switched from

[draw.io](https://www.capterra.com/p/166985/draw-io/)

Creately is much easier to learn and use than the Draw.io tool, with greater image capacity - diagrams can be more infographic in style than Draw.io allows for

### "Great tool but let down by Flash"

March 28, 2019

4.0

We were able to use it to create various types of diagrams for IT projects.

Pros

Creately is easy to use and a beginner can start creating useful diagrams within minutes of getting started. There is a ton of variety of shapes and tools, and the diagrams/process flows created will often look better than other competitors.

Cons

\- Flash. We had to install adobe flash just for Creately. - No integrated with gapps. Compared to a tool like draw.io, the integration with gapps is really poor. - UI could be improved as well.

### "Great for a free product and some useful templates, but not as user friendly as it could be!"

February 18, 2019

3.0

Easy to use for very simple diagrams and charts. Free version is nice if you don't mind your flow-charts being public. However, I wouldn't recommend it for any flowcharts that are more complex, or likely to be modified after the initial design.

Pros

This was a great product if you're looking for something to do very simple flows and charts in. Price point is great, and the free version still allows to use most features.

Cons

It was very difficult to keep flow-charts looking nice and showing clear connections between shapes once they became more complex. Although it was easy to design them, modifying them after was a challenge and was hard to keep them looking nice.

### "The best tool for AWS architecture diagrams"

October 30, 2019

5.0

Pros

Having used other tools in the past, I’m think that Creately is the best option in the market to create AWS architecture diagrams. It has most of the icons for AWS services, and is pretty easy to learn to use. One of the main pros is that it focuses on having good drawing tools instead of AWS API integration (like Cloudcraft)

Cons

I have not found any cons about it (at least for our use case)

Pros

Creately is a great app to use It has a lot of useful features. It comes packed with a lot of shapes and icons which one can use to create flowcharts, structure charts and any other type of diagram one may want to create. It is not difficult to use, as a novice user can start using it off the bat.

### "Great Product With One Major Flaw"

April 1, 2019

4.0

Pros

It does exactly what I need it to do - create org charts. It's easy to use with great functionality, and looks great.

Cons

The save/save as functionality is atrocious. I often lose past work because it'll save a current project over a previous one. When this happens I lose the opportunity to use a past chart as a template that would save me a ton of time. Then I'm forced to do it over again. If this was fixed it would be huge.

We found the perfect solution to our business because before Creately we used Microsoft Visio (which is so complicated to use). Also, the learning curve (how to use it) it's really good.

### "No Customer Support and Software Being Sold on the Website is Not the Current Version "

August 13, 2019

1.0

I would have like to have created some amazing graphics/diagrams, but I wasn't able to use the features I thought would be included.

Pros

I paid for the software and then I tried multiple times to download the software. The link sent to me in my email with my license did not work. So then I tried to download from the software from the Creately website. Some links on the website didn't work. Finally, after on one of the pages I was able to download the software but is a much older version from 2017. It lack some of the features, and did not have the updates of the advertised newest version. I have sent several emails. I received two responses, the last response stating they were going to help get me the right version, then nothing. No customer service and the software is not what I thought I was receiving.

Cons

Lack of features advertised would be included. Lack of tutorials in the software. Lack of support with issues.

It is a great place to build a site map and encourage the team involved in the site to all contribute ideas and add comments to the various aspects of the site map. These site maps with their comments provide key info for the developers to work from when building the back end of the site. The site maps are also then used for meetings with copywriters, designers, marketing team to help clarify the look, feel and wording of the site.

Pros

Easy to use. Easy to share ideas or suggestions. Easy to build understandable diagrams for all members of project's team to use for their various responsibilities. The comments feature is one that I find the most helpful.

Cons

You cannot copy text from a comment to paste on a different document. Unfortunately comments can only be created or deleted not edited.

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re glad to hear that Creately made it easy to create diagrams, find objects, print your work, and present proposed network changes to clients visually. Just to clarify, Creately’s workspace privacy options have changed over time, and workspaces are now private by default unless users choose to share them. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us understand how important privacy, sharing, and client-facing presentation workflows are for users. Best regards, The Creately Team
