Virtual Standup Board Adds Value for Remote Work
What do you like best about the product?
Love the ease of use, simple interface and flexible options for creating boards to meet different business unit needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at all at this time based on my experience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a virtual board to monitor projects managed by various team members and can organize work in the various pipeline stages. This supports a twice weekly virtual standup with other company team members. It helps to enable collaboration, aligning priorities and transparency on backlog items.
Really helped my team create the perfect mind map!
What do you like best about the product?
I like that we can ideate and create in real-time, and truly see how our ideas connect.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have yet to best figure out overlaying ideas to see how well they fit with each other. I'm unclear if this feature is actually offered.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working on a framework for a city-wide campaign. LucidSpark helps connect all the dots.
Great platform for mass collaboration and idea sketching
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to create, resize, connect ideas together and collaborate in real time really draws the line between using LucidSpark and other platforms such as Google Drawing. LucidSpark's fast server response times allow for quick collaboration. I also enjoy the fact that users export the resulting project as a pdf of vector image (no blurry objects). This allows for an expansive mindmap that is easily enjoyable by both users and also readers. My team and I also enjoy using LucidSpark's "snap on" features with certain objects as well as locking allowing for designing tasks to easily be overcome.
What do you dislike about the product?
LucidSpark does at time lag when big projects load, which is reasonable. However, to improve user experience with LucidSpark, this problem should be easily fixed. As a new user to LucidSpark, I would also value the ability to "rebind" my keys which allow me to adapt to the platform to much stronger degree since I am effectively "lowering" the skill curve needed to transition from another platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our company values customer insights and the ability to mindmap them / organize them on a platform is extremely important to ensure that we maintain the standards and solve problems that clients are expecting. The ability to see real time and have all the different objects that you can create (sticky notes, arrows ... etc.), allows for many creative and insightful ways to organize the information to then further analyze and pull those insights. This adds much value to my company and a direct benefit that was derived from using LucidSpark.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely experiment around a bit before demonstrating it to your team. This will allow you to guide them to complete the tasks that you require of them. In doing so, you really are creating value through using the platform.
Very nice tool for comp sci state diagram etc
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and easy access. intuitive ui etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
The service is very nice however more templates could be used in order to help with quicker work completion especially in common cases such as different state diagrams
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easier program planning and higher quality execution. It actually makes planning software development easy
Great brainstorming tool - but LucidChart checks most of the boxes for me.
What do you like best about the product?
It's great for brainstorming sessions; the team collaboration works really well. I also like the infinite canvas. I like the tagging feature, which is one thing that I could NOT do in Lucidchart. I like that there are so many options for shapes and colors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall I feel that there's not a lot of value added if you already use Lucidchart, which seems to have more options and functionality. A few features that especially stand out here that I wish Lucidspark had...
- Needs more hotkeys for faster node creation (like the mind mapping feature in LucidChart)
- Reorganize by hierarchy
- Multiple pages

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great way to organize thoughts, brainstorm, think through problems. Some people think in excel sheets, some in paragraphs/prose, some in pictures. I personally think mind maps are the best way to corral scattered thoughts, jump around between ideas, and work on multiple problems at the same time. It's also a good way to represent that thinking for other people (especially if you reorganize it a little bit :)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I don't think it would be worth it to pay for subscriptions to BOTH Lucidchart and Lucidspark. I don't well enough understand the difference between the two, to be honest. It seems Lucidchart has almost everything I need, though the tagging & commenting features in Spark are especially nice for categorizing ideas and getting feedback.
The team collaboration and organization of the program reflected positively in my experience.
What do you like best about the product?
The team collaboration, organization, and assistance in displaying my project plans are good qualities in the program.
What do you dislike about the product?
Having to use a business email since small businesses just starting may not get the opportunity of Lucidspark. It’s hard to share photos on the website which would really help explain things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using it for projects when I work with my students or coworkers. Before, we had to communicate without being able to see what each other was talking about. This really helped me draw out any ideas I had and the other people could see it easily. This is really one of the greatest benefits.
Helpful collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite parts of Lucidspark are the templates and frameworks they provide to get brainstorming sessions started. They save so much time and allow us to stay focused on the task at hand, instead of getting bogged down creating structure.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike is the number of comparable options on the market. It seems everyone I work with has a different tool they want to use for the same collaborative purposes. So, we have little consistency and share-ability between us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use LucidSpark for mapping out strategic ideas for clients with other members of my creative team. The ability to jump right in and get to collaborating is a great benefit. Being able to export or share what we have created outside of Lucidspark is another valuable benefit because we are not usually collaborating with clients on these issues.
Lucidspark helped for my Data Modeling requirement
What do you like best about the product?
Flow chart, Picture Object and Web Based quick response
What do you dislike about the product?
For Data Model script generation feature and reverse engineering feature I guess not available for use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Building Logical and Physical Data Model for new data store requirement
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good online tool very useful for Flow Chart, Data Modeling, Block Diagram and list go on...
Easy and efficient to use!
What do you like best about the product?
The simple process of importing an existing file to create an org chart without the tedious process of manually creating the org chart.
What do you dislike about the product?
The image url didn't quite work so I had to manually upload the pictures.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating and updating the company businesss organizational charts. It helps me understand my company and team members, know their roles.
Extremely useful, creative, easy to use and very dinamic
What do you like best about the product?
I love the way it is so simple and yet so useful, you can organize and make a really good job here, it's so easy ti get use to it and you will be using it more than you expected. It actually has helped me a lot because I usually am not a very creative person, but when I found LucidSpark it really helped me go through this without making to much of an effort, because by the look iteslf, it already seems like you're a very designer and creative person.
That is probably the thing I like the most about LucidSpark when it comes to make a presentation or maybe just to have some information well organized in order to study better, read better or just have it clear for yourself.

What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe the low number of forms that you can use for the table, but that's not even a big deal to complain about, the forms that it already has are really useful, they can be all that you need. Another thing that I think it may be a low point is the fact that you probably need to take a good amount of time to understand the way to make the maps. It does have a guide but it just isn't enough to understand at all, so you will need to navigate for your own a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
First of all, organizing information, creating maps that I can understand easily and faster than other maps. The most valuable benefit is that you can share it, either to edit or just to view, that's a really very important spec nowdays.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
LucidSpark is clearly a very good option to take if you just need to have a good, simple option to make a map, organizing information or to take a dinamic point of view of things.
