### "Simple to learn, polished result"

October 30, 2019

5.0

I use this software to diagram business processes.

Pros

So easy to use. Much easier than other tools I've learned. Has a good mix of useful features without bogging down the user with too many options. The results look like it took hours to make, but it's quite quick.

Cons

No complaints, currently at using the free version and the paid version has features worth upgrading for.

### "Good looking charts. Needs improvements on ease of use"

March 28, 2019

4.0

Pros

Produced diagram and charts have a fine touch look. Ability to start working from a template. No invasive watermarks.

Cons

Lacks variety of basic shapes. Search process for a specific shape is tedious. If elements are not properly aligned, pixelated output results. Manipulation of elements could be done easier.

### "Creatively"

December 5, 2020

4.0

I have been using this app a lot and I haven't seen any other app that has the same features as thing one has.

Pros

What I liked the most about this software is that I am able to create different diagrams or tables for different purposes.

Cons

I think that the only bad thing about it is the fact that you have to pay to create more works and save them for later.

### "Concept mapping"

October 30, 2019

5.0

I have trouble with software like this whenever I’ve used it but Creately was by far the best option.

Pros

The software was pretty easy to manipulate without a lot of direction. I felt like I could open it up and get started right away.

Cons

Sometimes the lines between connections didn’t land where I wanted them or changed shape and that was frustrating.
