### "Mon avis sur Visio"

October 20, 2024

4.0

J’utilise visio pour mapper des processus d’entreprises simplement et rapidement. C’est dans le cadre de mon rôle de consultant que j’utilise l’outil.

Pros

Visio est inclus en version Web dans la suite Microsoft 365 ce qui fait de cette application un outil accessible de tous. Il est extrêmement simple à utiliser.

Cons

Je trouve que le visuel de Visio pour faire le schéma ou autre sont vétustes. Il manque à l’application un petit coup de jeune.

### "An efficient tool for diagrams"

October 9, 2024

5.0

I use Visio often when looking to communicate a technical process with non-technical co-workers or clients. Sometimes it's difficult to fit everything into a PowerPoint slide, so I rely on Visio when needing to create something much more detailed. Visio is also easier to create flows than you can with objects on PowerPoint.

Pros

Visio is a great tool for creating diagrams and other types of visuals to communicate technical processes in ways that other Microsoft products like Word and PowerPoint can't quite offer.

Cons

The number of features can be overwhelming, I recommend consulting professionals or online tutorials to get a complete understanding of the possibilities.

### "Visio - Takes a little getting used to at first"

August 23, 2024

4.0

Overall, it's still a great app that I will continue to use. I like the layout of the software and the overall function of it. It has helped me multiple times with the ideas that I have had for the company I work for, and I'm sure it will continue to do so.

Pros

Great tool for visualizing complex ideas. Can draw on mobile version. You can collaborate with teammates and coworkers which I enjoy. Wireframes can help all involved arrive at a team consensus.

Cons

The cost. It can be a little expensive for what you get out of it. It can be difficult to learn at first as well.

### "Clear and Practical for Critical Path Planning"

December 5, 2024

4.0

Visio works well for visualising processes in buying. It provides clarity and keeps teams organised, but it could be more intuitive for fast-paced environments.

Pros

Visio is great for mapping the critical path in buying. It clearly lays out each stage, making it easier to identify delays and stay on schedule.

Cons

Some of the tools feel clunky and take too long to use. This slows things down, which isn’t ideal when working under retail deadlines.
