Pros

  • Additionally, the creators are very responsive to customer support requests and actually want to know how they can improve the product to meet your needs.

  • I found it very nice to use, looks great and is by far (in my opinion) so much better than other products that try and do a similar product.

  • Overall the experience is good, and anyone can get started with minimal help. Demo site is nice addition to help the newbies to learn the tool.

  • The toolbar options are very handy to navigate between pages. Capturing screenshots was super helpful.

Cons

  • There are a couple of quirks with using the product but no deal breakers: sometimes you have to zoom in really far in order to properly select a content block. That's really the main one.

  • Difficult to list any cons, as the developers have been quick to address any issues that we've had.

  • The drag and drop function can be fiddly at times, and sometimes I wish there was a history or versioning built-in.

  • The wysiwyg editor would freeze when moving around pages and require a refresh. Autosave didn't always autosave when there was a freeze or a crash.

"Great for communicating and tweaking new website structure between stakeholders"

Overall: I mainly use Rarchy for communicating how the landing pages or microsites for new campaigns will fit into the overall structure of our large website. I create the structure, page URLs, page titles etc. in Rarchy and then share a visual map of the campaign pages with other stakeholders for their feedback. I can also provide the option for them to join my team in Rarchy and make tweaks themselves.

Pros: Super easy to use and looks great visually. Love the UX/UI.

Cons: Would love to be able to plan the content of each page. After speaking to the Rarchy team it sounds like this is on the product roadmap which is good to see.

Alternatives Considered: Octopus.do
Reasons for Choosing Rarchy: It seemed to provide the best experience for working with a large website (thousands of pages). It also looked like it had the nicest UI.

"Excellent solution for visualizing pages and workflows"

Overall: Very simple, yet feature rich. The developers have been extremely responsive to feature requests and bug fixes. It's really opened up new ways for us to communicate ideas and explain designs.

Pros: Creating user flows is quick and easy. Intuitive design, responsive developers, ability to toggle between mobile and desktop views.

Cons: Difficult to list any cons, as the developers have been quick to address any issues that we've had!

Alternatives Considered: FlowMapp, Miro, Lucidchart, Octopus.do and Figma
Reasons for Choosing Rarchy: Rarchy was the most straightforward and feature rich way to create both a site map and user flows with custom images and attachments. No other product was able to meet our specific needs so completely.

"Been promising new features for a while"

Overall: It's okay, not ideal

Pros: The ability to grab a "live" screenshot based on URL

Cons: Files have been "coming soon" for so long! When will that be released? Competitors have them and I don't want to switch if I don't have to.

Hi Heather, Many thanks for taking the time to review Rarchy. Coincidentally, we have just released our page files upload feature in Beta today! It would be great to get your feedback on this - feel free to communicate any feedback directly to me owen@rarchy.com. Apologies for the delay in releasing this feature - unfortunately other features have taken priority during Q1 this year. To alleviate some of the frustration you have experienced waiting for new features to be released, we plan on creating a dedicated roadmap page on https://rarchy.com, which will give you a clearer idea of which features are prioritised and when we expect them to be released. Best, Owen

"Simple, intuitive and robust. Rarchy brings sitemaps and Flowcharts to life!"

Overall: I found it very nice to use, looks great and is by far (in my opinion) so much better than other products that try and do a similar product. The support team go above and beyond to help with queries or issues I've faced to help me fix my issues.

Pros: The best things about Rachy to me are the auto-import tool - both from URLs and CSV imports. The Auto screen capture function impresses other colleagues who are only used to seeing the name/titles of pages in other similar software. It helps makes visualising the product so much easier.

Cons: The drag and drop function can be fiddly at times, and sometimes I wish there was a history or versioning built-in.

Switched From: PRO Sitemaps
Reasons for Switching to Rarchy: Wanted more user-friendly visuals, and the ability to share across a team for everyone to join, comment and edit.

"Great value for the price and EXTREMELY responsive customer support"

Overall: So far so great! The quirks in using the product are just something you get used to. Again: not deal breaking at all. More a matter of zooming in and aiming my mouse better. Everything else has been great: existing functionality is really cool and the developers are keen to add useful additions that help your use cases.

Pros: Where to start?? Setting up a project and scraping a website is easy-peasy with just a few clicks. Provides a comprehensive overview of a site's content/pages & captures all relevant pages, unlike some of the competitors. Creating a new/modified sitemap is super simple; the drag and drop functionality is great and the ability to add content blocks, notes, and add example wireframes really speeds up the planning process. Additionally, the creators are very responsive to customer support requests and actually want to know how they can improve the product to meet your needs.

Cons: There are a couple of quirks with using the product but no deal breakers: sometimes you have to zoom in really far in order to properly select a content block. That's really the main one.

Reasons for Switching to Rarchy: dyno mapper didn't catch all the webpages on their scan and their sitemap creator wasn't as intuitive, or as full featured as Rarchy.
