Can't really think of anything I don't like about using lucidchart.

Project management, transparency to clients
Easy to use, intuitive

I use lucidchart on my mobile device. Is easy to use in both creation and viewing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Shapes Library could be better, as could connecting shapes on a touchscreen
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quick relationship diagramming or simple architecture mapping sketches. Simple figures 4 reports or documents that are much more cumbersome using any Microsoft product.
Best alternative to Gliffy
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to use, stable software without errors and no weird behaviours.
What do you dislike about the product?
The import tool from fluffy could be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Diagrams and drawings for manuals and documents to share with the customer.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If gliffy does not work as expected, try this one.
Lucidchart is flexible, detailed, and has a great free version!
What do you like best about the product?
Variety of shapes and items you can add, flexibility in styling and connecting them. The standard shapes are default, but you can choose from a wide variety of well chosen shape presets based on the type of project you're working on. Even for complex charts with lots of items, little lag or network issues when moving items or making changes. The free version is great for even complex charts that 50+ shapes, but only allows a small number of charts. But if you do need to use it regularly, DEFINITELY worth the premium subscription!
What do you dislike about the product?
It can sometimes be hard to select the right item when you have several items stacked together. Zooming in and out can be cumbersome - the zoom steps are wider apart than I'd like.Otherwise, I have had no issues with the Lucidchart software as I've used it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating complex flow charts, organizational charts, workflow charts, value webs, and other diagrams. I've been able to more clearly illustrate complex website functions, large organizational systems, reporting chains with several "what if" cases, and more!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't miss the individual shape options - arrow directions for lines, shape and text colors and patterns, rounded corners, etc. These can help your diagrams look more professional, but also make them clearer for your audience at a glance. Also, the layers option isn't always obvious, but is really helpful in locking one set of shapes so you don't move them by accident!
Lucidchart
What do you like best about the product?
one platform for a variety of uses: product maps, thought maps, project organization, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
can't save to a google drive folder... everything is saved within lucidcharts and is difficult to share with others
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
risk mitigation
A great free tool for simpler flows
What do you like best about the product?
Being about to share diagrams is a great part of LucidChart. It's a great alternative to Visio.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you have the free version, you definitely need to keep your diagrams fairly simple, or else you'll run out of objects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used to LucidChart to communicate our business processes.
Gets the job done
What do you like best about the product?
Lucidchart is simple, easy to use and easy to learn. It's a good way to take something you did on a whiteboard and make digital. I'm just starting to use it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Interface is a little outdated, but again, that isn't a big deal. This makes flow charts and diagrams, it gets the job done but it's not exciting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mapping out user flows and product happy paths.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's worth a try.
LucidChart Review
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that it has ASHRAE and ANSI library of symbols ready to be loaded at my own convenience
What do you dislike about the product?
The PDF conversion from the lucidchart platform isn't the best and does require a lot of fiddling around to get it right finally
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
process flow diagram for a platen press machinery
Recommendations to others considering the product:
works well for PFD and P & IDs, please check in with the ISA website and cross-reference to see if latest symbols are what you see in the library
LucidChart provides EVERYTHING you need for developing and sharing project documents
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to collaborate with fellow team members on projects. We utilize it with our designers putting the project together with drawings, floor plans, etc. and then sharing with our sales team to confirm locations and details, and then with our install team to have the info they need on site.
What do you dislike about the product?
LucidChart is an incredible product, for all that we've used it for over the last year plus, we haven't run into any issues or dislikes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing project drawings, archiving drawings for future reference, and the ability to remove paper documents from our workflow and share everything through the app.
Very Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
This has a very intuitive user interface and everything is very easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing really I can complain about for this software. As before, it is very easy to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it for basic diagram creation. It is easier to use to make diagrams in this rather than in Google Slides or powerpoint
