### "A dream compared to Visio"

November 10, 2023

5.0

Lucid has been a pleasure to work with, they incorporate the latest features and are constantly improving the product. They also provide excellent support with great resources and excellent training for the products.

Pros

I like the ease of building flows and drawings. All the tools are readily available and visible and intuitive to work. I especially love the templates and the breadth of areas they cover.

Cons

It takes users a little bit of time to become proficient with the interface as most are coming from tools like Power Point and are not used to moving the canvas along with moving objects. Once this is overcome the tool is a breeze to use.

Alternatives considered

[Visio](https://www.capterra.com/p/201133/Visio/)

Reason for choosing Lucidchart

Visio provided more features at a similar or lower price point than licensing Visio Professional

### "How to easily create huge diagrams"

March 2, 2023

4.0

Since I am using I have used it for many tasks, but specially for flow diagrams. I love all the shapes that have, which make easy to understand the diagram because each has a meaning. I've created huge diagrams that I wouldn't be able to create them without Lucidchat because they were so big that it was impossible to read the content of the diagram, but Lucidchat allows sharing it with just a link and to explore all the diagram with the zoom tool.On the whole, I had a good experience using this software, it's simple but useful; you can create really simple diagrams or create big ones without high complexity. Personally, I would strongly recommend it.

Pros

This software is simple to use, it has a similar interface to other well known software products of the Office package. This is an advantage because everyone can learn how to use it in a few minutes. It offers numerous shapes, arrows, and text. This great variety is extremely useful to design the diagrams because it makes easy to read them and to structure them. It's easy to paste each shape and connect each one with arrows, then you can also add colour to each shape. Diagrams are also dynamic, if shapes are connected in the right way, when one shape is moved, will find the way to keep it connected, by modifying the arrows position and shape.

Cons

has not many cons, the main one is that the free version of the product has some limitations related to the size of the diagram and the way you can export it or share it. Without the premium version, making vast diagrams is not so easy because you are limited to a maximum number of shapes in each diagram, and you can't have more than 3 documents simultaneously.

December 23, 2022

My experience with overall is okay. I love the beautiful colour representations and the easy drag and drop function. I would recommend it to anyone that loves beautiful and effective displays of flow diagrams

Pros

It has helped me to create a detailed, yet easy to understand forklift offloading process flowchart. I was even able to get real-time collaborations on this project from my colleagues which made it a very robust result

Cons

Exporting to excel was a bit of a challenge as it took a while and the flowchart did not appear complete.

### "LucidChart: The future of technical diagrams"

September 3, 2022

5.0

I really love this tool. If you are drafting ER-diagram it can provide you the query to draw build it in database.

Pros

This tool is literally user friendly. Apart from that it provides the templates to draw diagram according to platform for example you can get diagram to show aws services, google cloud services, ER diagram models and so on. Connecting the blocks is also quite easy, you just need to point line from one point to other block.

Cons

Sometimes file export facility doesn't works at all. Also you cannot export it to other online tools.

### "Business Process development/ Modeling"

May 3, 2023

4.0

Excellent tool for collaborating with team mates as well as individual. The tool also allows you to work offline after logging in and changes are automatically saved once internet connection is restored. This has been a good feature for me because I do not have to stress about saving my work now and then.

Pros

The drag and drop tool from the diagrams library, the feature to change colors of the diagrams and background in the model, the swim lanes, BPMN 2.0 features as well as the feature to select the type of model you want to design. For example, if you want to model an improved business process or facility layout, you could select that application and tools applicable for that type of model will be displayed in the tools library.

Cons

Sometimes it would take longer times to generate and export data from to a third party application.

### "Nice tool for Data visualization"

June 15, 2021

5.0

I have been working with Lucid chart from past 4 years now and love it.

Pros

The best thing about lucid chart is the ease of creating the graphs and flows. Built in templates makes it easy for the user to create the flows based on the needs.

Cons

Annual subscription. I would like a more affordable option. Also an addition to the templates will help give more flexibility to choose from.

### "It's the clear leader in this space"

May 26, 2022

4.0

Pros

just works. It's simple, obvious/intuitive, and makes communicating super simple. I love the ability to quickly make new diagrams, succinctly communicate, share, print, etc. Even training new team members to use Lucidchart is super simple - new engineers may not fully understand the value, but they quickly see it.

Cons

The look and feel of outputs is pretty generic. I wish that the look and feel could be more polished for larger audiences - there are other softwares out there that show/present similar diagrams in a more polished look/feel. That said, that's minor. Lucidchart does exactly what it says it's going to do. One big request/wish: I wish Lucidchart had an API that would build diagrams programmtically. Yes, Lucidchart has an API, but I specifically want to hand it PlantUML commands (or something similar) from RunTime code that would quickly build sequence diagrams, class diagrams, system diagrams, etc. But alas, that is entirely missing.

### "Collaboratively work on an idea to workflow to wireframe prototype all in one place"

June 12, 2023

4.0

Very positive as it was very easy to collaboratively and remotely discuss new ideas, work flows and prototypes in one hub, instead of switching tools.

Pros

The clean interface and real-time collaboration helps boost efficiency and creativity as we can quickly take an idea and break it down to iterate on together.

Cons

Performance can be slower when dealing with larger, more complex diagrams. Additionally, the learning curve can be quite steep, especially when moving beyond basic diagrams and functionality, needs better guidance.

### "It enables us to create stunning diagrams & Org charts with clear details and relationships"

March 31, 2023

5.0

has made creating diagrams of all kinds, especially workflow diagrams and organizational charts, very simple. It's great that with Lucidchart we can collaborate as a team to prepare charts, which ensures that we include all the details we need.

Pros

I like that provides a lot of collaborative features, allowing team members to participate in making workflow charts, org charts, and much more that we need, and the easy-to-customize ready-made templates help us get the job done smoothly. I particularly like how Lucidchart handles organization charts because we can specify the number of sub-levels, add all of the organization's employees, and link them to the line officials within the departments by the proper functional relationships. We can also add their photos, write their names and job titles, and add links to easily access the member's job history. It's also great that we can make more than one sub-organizational chart and connect them directly to the main one. This lets us clearly explain a lot of details. 

Cons

Everything in is structured and easy to use. I thought at the beginning that coordinating the sizes of the different components and linking them to one other on the board hard affair, but with practice, it turned out that it is pretty simple.

### "J.L. Lucidchart Review"

December 9, 2022

4.0

is the first software I look to to create any kind of document when following the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) for projects, internal assessments and otherwise. I would recommend it to anyone that is doing Information Technology, Computer Science in the secondary and tertiary system, and creatives alike.

Pros

There is an unlimited size to the size of my document when inserting multiple diagram symbols. To go along with this, when saving my file, I can choose whether to crop the content in the worksheet to the content only or otherwise.

Cons

When my account was created and I my first 3 documents, the fourth document was created but the first document was changed to view-only. That meant that I was not able to edit that document again unless I made a copy of it however the same problem did occur.

### "Lucidchart Review"

February 15, 2023

5.0

I used for my diagram and org chart projects and was impressed by its ease of use and real-time collaboration functionality. Although there are limitations on some advanced features and the pricing is relatively high, I highly recommend this platform for anyone looking for a user-friendly and professional diagram and org chart creation tool.

Pros

I used for 11 months for creative project management, diagrams, org charts, and wireframing. I was extremely impressed with how user-friendly the platform was. The diagram creation tools were intuitive and allowed for the quick creation of professional and visually appealing graphics. I also appreciated the ability to work collaboratively in real-time with colleagues, which led to increased productivity and better-quality outcomes. Integrations with other applications such as Google Drive were also very convenient.

Cons

Although I was very satisfied with the user-friendliness of the platform, I found that some advanced features were limited. For example, customization of colors and shapes was not as extensive as I would have liked, and there were limits on the number of shapes and colors that could be used. Additionally, I found that the pricing was relatively high, which can be a drawback for those on smaller budgets.

### "Visualize Your Ideas with Ease: Lucid"

February 16, 2023

5.0

Overall, i tend to find to be a very user-friendly and intuitive tool, with a clean and modern interface that is easy to navigate. The software also offers a wide range of customization options, allowing users to create diagrams that are tailored to their specific needs and preferences.

Pros

One thing I really appreciate about Lucid is how user-friendly it is. The software is easy to navigate and has a clean interface that makes it simple to create different types of documents, including diagrams, charts, and maps. I also like the fact that it offers a wide range of customization options, so you can create documents that look exactly the way you want them to.Another thing I appreciate is the collaboration features. Lucid allows multiple people to work on the same document simultaneously, which can be really helpful when you're working on a project with a team. The software also has commenting and sharing options, making it easy to get feedback and share your work with others.

Cons

One thing I find frustrating about Lucid is that some of the more advanced features are only available in the paid version.While the free version is still quite functional, you may find yourself limited if you need to create more complex documents. Also, while the interface is generally user-friendly, there are times when I've found it a bit glitchy or slow to respond.

### "Great tool for collaborative process mapping"

November 9, 2021

4.0

Very happy and have been recommending Lucid to other organizations.

Pros

Ability to share maps across team members across time zone is terrific. Acting as the central repository, we have eliminated the emailing of files between members and the attendant issues with version control. I am looking forward to trying to use "layers" which i have seen in a demo but not actually tried yet. Commenting and ability to call out team members to comment (with the "@name" feature is great. UNLIMITED collaborators is a massive WIN !

Cons

It can be difficult to easily select text inside shapes or grouped objects - this often necessitates triple clicking or multiple double-clicking. It would be nice if Team Folders was available in the basic subscription, not having this has driven us to have a single large document with multiple sheets/tabs. Large documents are slow to load and manipulate.

### "Lucidchart - the flowchart powerful tool"

February 15, 2022

5.0

My experience with from the moment we met with the sales team, through implementation of the software was positive. I would recommend Lucidchart to any Project Management team, learning team or operations team. Here is why: - great ability to write process flows and wireframes - easy way to create conversations for extensive scenario-based learning - useful collaboration with your team and reviewers - easy to manage platform - great customer support.

Pros

We started using as a tool to outline conversations our call centre agents had with customers regarding a new product that we were launching. At first, we used a free version which was sufficient enough but after seeing how much we could get with the paid version, we committed to that. The most powerful part for my team was the ability to brainstorm together on any charts we had to create. Moving parts in different places, asking questions of your colleagues and exploring our vision were the most exciting for project management. Additionally, reviews were seamless. You would share a link to the chart and then the reviewers were able to put their feedback that you could implement right away. It saved us a lot of time and effort in the process.

Cons

We use to create charts or scenario-based process flows and we did not see anything that wouldn't meet our expectations. We do not use it often enough to give any possible opportunities for improvement. Even the support that we received from Lusidchart was seamless and quick.

### "Quick and easy diagrams for more efficient work thanks to LucidChart"

May 9, 2023

5.0

Even though I didn't work with this tool very long, I liked the ease with which I can create diagrams and share them with other members of my IT software management team. As well as the ability to collaborate in real time with them and the built in templates and shapes which were very helpful and saved us a lot of time creating diagrams. In summary, I think is a valuable tool for any IT team that needs to create and share diagrams quickly and efficiently, and I would use it again without hesitation.

Pros

Throughout the time that I have worked with this tool, I must emphasize that it is an intuitive and easy-to-use tool, it gives you the facility to create an infinite number of diagrams in a matter of minutes. However, what I liked the most about working with this tool was the ease with which I was able to integrate it with other tools that I used while making diagrams in it, such as: GoogleDrive and Slack.

Cons

The only negative point that I must highlight about this tool is that it has certain functions that some new users (like me when I started) are not completely clear about and the possibility of taking full advantage of this tool may be lost.

Reason for choosing Lucidchart

I simply used this tool above all other options out there, because it's a tool I still use in college when it comes to Data Analysis and working with databases in general. So using it is already something that is very easy for me and meets the requirements I need.

I chose this one due to price and what it did as a self employed consultant. It is perfect for this as it has a good number of features for a monthly price that is affordable.

### "Lucidchart: Simple & Powerful"

August 30, 2023

5.0

Pros

I use for system diagrams, data modeling, and business process analysis/improvement. It's an excellent tool for all of these. Lucid is intuitive to use with simple drag & drop functionality. 90% of the features I'm looking for are available by sight or with a simple right-click of the mouse. The visualizations it provides helps to highlight process complexities that need to be simplified, and make collaboration with clients very straightforward.

Cons

Because is a web-based tool, its features lag in comparison to some installed options. The other thing that annoys me is how there does not seem to be any way to add a connector to a shape so that the connector will dynamically re-orient when I move the shape-- a very common occurrence when working to improve processes! I need to click the connector, hope I actually selected the right space (or else it creates a new connector), and drag it to a new connection point. Overall minor, but annoying.

April 10, 2024

Each member of my team can contribute to data visualizations in real time thanks to 's built-in collaboration features. As a team, we can create data visualizations like charts and graphs, and everyone can see each other's changes in real time. This facilitates group input, reviews and approvals, as well as detailed explanations.

Pros

One of the software tools I use at work is . It helps me draw data systems diagrams, which in turn helps me describe, organize, and convey data engineering work to my colleagues.

Cons

Despite 's diagramming templates, I've always felt that they fall short when it comes to most of the charts and data process maps we've created with Lucidchart. And that's how it's always been: many data graphs are completely hand-drawn.

### "Excellent Option for Flow Charting"

November 10, 2021

5.0

is my new favorite software for process mapping/diagraming. In the past, I have used another well known software that is basically an industry standard for process improvement so I wasn't sure if this would meet my needs in terms of mapping out our processes but it has far exceeded my expectations.

Pros

I love how easy it is to create flow charts, workflows, and diagrams in various formats. There are other software out there that accomplish this function but is really cost effective for educational institutions and meet the need very well.

Cons

It took a little bit to understand how to work the tools and formatting but once you get the hang of it, the software is pretty easy to use. It would be awesome to have some sort of training manual to refer to help those new to process mapping understand the various symbols but considering how cost effective it is, that's really a non-issue.
