Great tool for work!
What do you like best about the product?
The templates that are available are great. The templates are a real time saver if you don't need to use a more free flowing board or chart. I really like that it is easy to collaborate with other and share ideas quickly. The feature that allows for strategy mapping has been very helpful to my team and I. We are currently trying to improve an already existing program and potentially design our own software, so this has been a really great tool. Additionally, all of the hints and tips have proven useful when first starting on Lucidspark and Lucidchart. I tend to watch the helpful "how to" videos when I need exxtra help!
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't currently have any complaints about Lucidspark or Lucidchart. All of the versatile features have been helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making flowcharts helps me to visualize projects and show others my ideas. It makes it very simple for team emebers to create their own proposals and then be able to share it with everyone and decide which makes the most sense. We use this a lot for proritizing new projects and optimzing our efficiency as a team. Also, we like to use the collaborative whiteboard in meetings to visualize what we are discussing and easily take notes, so we don't forget what was talked about. The collaborative whiteboards are user-friendly and have polling features which makes it very simple for teams to decide on their next project.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think adding more of the "how to" videos would be helpful. Instead of waiting for a customer to ask questions about specific features, maybe have videos that show the more advanced features and common uses for them.
Lucidspark Review
What do you like best about the product?
Intuitive to use and well laid out platform
What do you dislike about the product?
Tutorials are short and quick, need more in depth tutorials
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating a flow-chart and seeing where cracks appear in the process
Easy to create and collaborate with colleagues
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to collaborate diagrams with my collegues
What do you dislike about the product?
When I started, I could not see the lucidcharts right away even though I was logged in with the same domain as my coworkers. They had to give me read permission explicitly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently, we are using it to domain model our new feature. It has multiple levels of abstractions, and it helps to visualize it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd love it if there were a text version, e.g., PlantUML. It would be mainly for engineering to have versioning.
Lucid Spark Review
What do you like best about the product?
I like how simple it is to use because I do not have to train my team. I really love how user friendly it is, especially I do not have that the most tech savy cowokers, so it reduces the time taken out for questions and help.We like that we can share practically anything on the software. Voting is also a big bonus for us. The software just saves so much time compared to other interactive business software (zoom).
What do you dislike about the product?
I use more than one lucid software; it would be nice to have all the different softwares in one place. I just do not like having several different tabs open when I can easily navigate through one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us to meet within social distance guidlines, it ensures that everyone has a voice and everyone is being heard. I like that ensures fairness among my team. It also helps us stay focus, there are no real distractions when using the softwares, it increases our effienciency.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is very easy to use. There are not too many softwares that are actually user friendly.
My team does not feel like there is a lack of communication
Great for a team of more than 5 people
The software is not time consuming at all. you will probably save time and actually be able able to do your work.
We save time when it comes to voting.

Unexpectedly pretty neat!
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use compared to others. We demoed 3 collaboration software packages and this was by far the easiest to use!
What do you dislike about the product?
Mural had a cooler feature where one could pan over to different slides... if you wanted a neater way to transition slides on a presentation...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It turns out that my role doesn't need to host a bunch of large brainstorming meetings, so many of the templates didn't apply to me. The Lucid Chart was a quicker version of VISIO that came in handy for my role/job. With some refining and work I think it could be more relevant to my job.
It opened up new ways to work for my company.
What do you like best about the product?
Lucidspark helped me to build a full chart workflow for my soon to be open factory. The app is easy to understand and work on. I didn't need any additional walktroughs or anything. If you are in business apps regularly you'd understand and see what you need to do when you want it. Being able to watch and see what has been done is perfect.
What do you dislike about the product?
Altough I don't need it I'd like to have this app in Turkish Language aswell. Generally I do like to have the app for my team because we are able to communicate and see what to do unfortunately my team is unable to understand the app because they don't know English well. That's what you should improve as I believe you'd get more people on board from Turkey.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helped me to build a check-list like chart so I don't miss any important step on my work. It also let me watch over my collagues. I can see whoever did what and that's a great thing for the amount of money we pay!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It will definetly help you in a lot of ways. You'd be able to work as one with your team, without any hassle. I wish I knew this app before. Just give it a go, try to plan a chart for your company and think about your steps. After then you visualise it and try to show it on the screen. You would see that it is easy to print out.
Lucid is very useful
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to deploy new cards to the board and that when using Lucid you have a "actual meeting room experiene" which is limited during COVID times.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard to follow the presenter all over the board. Sometimes people get distracted and fail to follow the flow of the meeting and then have troubles to find what is being discussed currently. It'd be great to have a feature allowing to summon all people to a certain place on the board.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving the problem of not being able to meet face to face with the team in COVID times. Lucid is a great tool to emulate the whiteboard experience on-line. Without it we were stuck with simple shared text document. Now we can deploy cards, draw and feel as though we are in the same meeting room.
Great collaboration tool
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to do virtual brainstorms. The default templates provided are useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not very easy to transfer the lucid spark content into nice presentable power points afterwards - there is a lot of copy pasting to do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is an excellent tool for virtual facilitation, especially in these times when it is not possible to be together in a room to brainstorm
fast and easy
What do you like best about the product?
i can ceate fast and easy relationship charts with colours and symbols. it is easy to let everyone to can work together in the cloud from their home or office, because you only need internet and almosts everyone, now a days , has internet and their office and almost everyone at their wotk, if nto you can always use the internet of your personal phone , or from the work phone to create a hotsot and connect to the internet.
also, the price is not too high, specially for business where you have to manage databeses and you need a sw that is easy to use and that everyone can have access. is sw engineering is common that people work distributed in the world, which is a modern trend these days, so having a sw that allows to share an organization of a sw with its funtionality to everyone with a few steps is great help.

What do you dislike about the product?
i could not find good libraries for engineering prototyping and hw and electric concept design:
i missed a library for hw and electric, a lib for PID process diagrams, alib for timing and sequencing diagrams, a lib for pneumatic and hydraulic schematics

if you are starting to orgnise a sw or any uther system with functional requieremnts, lucid helps visualisy all the info involved.
Simple and fast collaboration tool
What do you like best about the product?
How easy it is to start working with it with no knowledge of the tool.
How fast and responsive it is, even when theres a ton of people doing their thing at the same time

What do you dislike about the product?
When I tried to do something different from the "basic stuff", it was hard to find a proper template.
Sharing the projects has been generating issues all the time. People always try to just copy the link as it is (as in most web apps) and forget that they have to generate an ad-hoc sharing url.

Feedback sessions of different purposes is our main use, though I've been using it to work on some system networks
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't be shy and try different stuff. There's more to Lucid than just post-its. If you are going to be using it with some regularity, learn the basic shortcuts, it will save you a lot fo time
