The adjustability of this tool enables lots of efficiency
What do you like best about the product?
The quick templates to best fit most common needs make the bones quick to build off of.
What do you dislike about the product?
They could have more options when it comes to drawing, outside of the given shapes and lines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When trying to make dynamic flow charts in a microsoft suite , it can get out of hand with adding separate shapes and lines. This makes it easy and scalable for multiple departments.
Lucid Charts great for collaboration but still not as robust as Visio
What do you like best about the product?
As a cloud platform it is very easy to share diagrams and allow collaboration. The user interface is reasonably intuitive and the pricing is reasonable.
What do you dislike about the product?
After using Visio for a long time there just is not enough in terms of formats available. Some of this could be a learning curve or a higher subscription but I have not found current future state formats amongst others. I also find Visio more intuitive, but the inability to easily share drove me to Lucid Charts
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use flow charts to visualize integration scenarios on a regular basis with my clients. This said Visio is not a great option requiring a viewer that most clients won't have. The ability to simply share Lucid Diagrams with a client that they can view from a browser has improved communication and collaboration,
Recommendations to others considering the product:
While lacking some of the features of visio, Lucid Charts does deliver on collaboration.
Good but need improvement

It has so many versatile features. Free for students.

Usually draw program flow chart. Looping system looks good.
Easy workflow diagramming and wireframes
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use. You do not need to be an expert to use this software to make great looking documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd like easier ways to print. Some of the user help isn't that helpful
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
After a reorg, we've centralized most departments and understanding and documenting what the best practices are has been a lifesaver

Lucid Chart is a functional solution that creates highly-usable flow charts
What do you like best about the product?
It's pretty quick to learn how to use LucidChart. The features grow with you so that you can use just the basics after a few minutes of clicking around. But if you want to become a power user, you'll need to put in a bit more time.
What do you dislike about the product?
The end result feels like a mechanical drawing or an engineering chart. They're just not aesthetically pleasing. If you're just trying to communicate information, then it's all you need. If you need to communicate information in an elegant way, then you may need a different solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Explaining multi-stage processes to clients in an onboarding course. We've been able to help our clients understand the need to complete certain tasks in a specific order and identify decision points and criteria for making those decisions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Check it out. It may well check all your boxes. Just don't think that it will be useful for client-facing information. It's more for creating internal docs.

Lucidchart for Process Flows
What do you like best about the product?
There are a lot a similar functionality to Visio so the learning curve was short. It is web based so there was I could access it with any computer. Also there was no need to install on laptop and also not having to provide proof of purchase for our IT Support team.
What do you dislike about the product?
With connecting line there is not functionality to make them straight or angled, so that took a bit of time when creating complex diagrams. However I was told by them that this was to be fixed in the future.

The user has access to their work folder from any computer with internet connections.

Simple but fussy

Sometimes getting the arrows to position properly is a pain, and I’d like the ability to shrink everything down to fit a letter or tabloid size paper
