Lucidchart is a wonderful tool for business and personal concept mapping

  • March 24, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the simple and intuitive content creation tools that allow me to create process workflows in a way that naturally makes sense to myself and my clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
I believe that the text entry tools for labeling objects and processes could be a little more legible or the experience could be more aesthetically pleasing. In particular the mid-arrow text never looks clean.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Lucidcharts to describe technological workflows in great detail to avoid catastrophic miscommunication. This software has helped me create bulletproof workflow documentation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Lucidcharts is a powerful but intuitive tool to help organize thoughts and people around a particular idea or workflow

Intuitive and visually appealing!

  • March 24, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's easy- all of the buttons function as expected, so even when I'm not sure exactly how to accomplish what I'm trying to do, it only takes a small amount of tinkering to make it happen! The smart lines are great for aligning, and I love that connecting lines move along with their preceeding shapes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not too much! There could be more color themes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
So much easier to use to document process flows than Excel!

Lucidchart. Everything you need, nothing you don't!

  • March 24, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
So easy to use and intuitive. Eons beyond Visio in that it doesn't try to be all things to all people. It's somewhat minimalist but you spend more time getting your work done and less time fiddling with shape and flow issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes that minimalism can be a bit of a fault. Also, I haven't been able to figure out how to set defaults, like the arrow behavior, for instance. Sometimes I'd like some extra shape add-ons. Also, it's hard to use the tool for data development. I usually work out the issue outside the tool and use Lucidchart to document the final product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Documenting processes, business workflows, decision trees, visualizing all kinds of data. Once I know what I need to visualize, putting it together is a snap.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it, you will love it!

Indispensable Tool

  • March 24, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Multiple tabs, easy to use/intuitive. Great libraries once you learn how to use them
What do you dislike about the product?
The random pop-up to move your mouse. Small complaint but annoying
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Document business process on a weekly basis. This tool helps to make that easy to do
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I haven't used this product for wireframing, only process flows/swim lanes/etc. Give it a shot

Lucidchart is great!

  • March 24, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that changes are propagated on all documents and wiki entries I make.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how slow it loads. I'd rather it show a generated image on my documents v.s. showing the actual document. That should make it faster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The original issue was due to us having outdated documentation graphs. This solves the issue since it propagates all changes to all documents.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a great product.

Essential for my job as a Technical Writer

  • March 24, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It makes it so easy to make nice professional looking flowcharts.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has a little bit of a learning curve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a Technical Writer for a BioTech company and one of my main duties is to write SOPs that include a flowchart. After struggling to make nice flowcharts in word (and taking up a lot of time) I went in search of something better and I found Lucid Charts that allows me to make flowcharts that are better looking and easier in a fraction of the time it would take me in word.

Easy alternative to Visio

  • March 24, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easier to use than Visio. No local software to install.
What do you dislike about the product?
Using the lines can be a bit odd. Sometimes, it is not easy to move items around that are already connected by lines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Process flow mapping.

Decent Usage with issues regarding Google Drive

  • March 24, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that I can easily make charts for myself and others to edit.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've had a lot of issues with adding it to a team shared chrome drive. Anytime someone shares it within the drive I can never navigate to that particular document.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I haven't solved any business problem, but I have solved charts I needed to make for my classes.

Great substitute for Visio

  • March 24, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I think the ease of use is LucidChart's best feature. I can create any process diagram or org chart in just minutes with templates and easy to use controls. The new presentation mode is a very interesting feature that I need to use more. I like the fact that the product consistently sees updates and improvements.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of customization and visual options. The limited design capabilities is difficult for someone who is specializes in graphic design. I get by in Lucidchart but there needs to be more formatting options and more options to customize process maps with pictures or other visual content. The photo uploader and cloud is also difficult, crashing sometimes and not uploading files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In most cases, I use LucidChart to specifically design processes, before and after diagrams, and org charts. While most colleagues cannot show simple process diagrams, I can easily update or build a diagram that is both informative and tailored to the audience.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want a inexpensive option compared to Visio, this is an excellent program that is simple to use and easy to learn.

Amazing academic writing tool!

  • March 24, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the flexibility this program has to offer.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish I could copy a figure and past it into a word document without having to first download it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I create figures, diagrams, and statistical model displays using this software. It is much quicker and more flexible than diagraming in PowerPoint. Have, and continue to recommend this to all my academic peers!
