Toolkit for Teams to Think, Create, and Innovate Together.
What do you like best about the product?
The Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite is great for helping teams work together on ideas in real time with easy to use visual tools. It is simple enough for everyone technical or not to jump in and contribute, whether brainstorming, planning processes, or organizing cloud systems. With tools like Lucidchart for diagrams, Lucidspark for brainstorming, and Lucidscale for cloud planning, it covers a wide range of needs, making it easier for teams to share, develop, and bring ideas to life across projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
According to me disadvantage of the Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite is that it can be a bit difficult for new person to get used to, especially if they are not familiar with visual tools. Some features might take some time to learn. Also, the subscription fees can be expensive for smaller teams or individuals. While it works well with many other platforms, some person may experience problems with syncing when working on large projects or with many people.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite is helping my team to work together better by allowing them to create and share visual ideas like diagrams and flowcharts. It makes it easier for my team to understand and discuss complex ideas. The suite helps my team members work together in real time, even if they’re in different places, making planning and decision making faster. For individuals, it helps organize thoughts and complete tasks more easily with clear, visual tools that save time and improve productivity.
I found Lucid to be a very user friendly tool. I used it to build UML diagrams.

What do you dislike about the product?
There should be more templates and an option to change the location of diagram with mouse's scroll press.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping us collaborate and made things easier while developing UML diagrams.
Easy to use & intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
I've never had issues working with Lucid and it's been the tool of choice for 3/5 companies I worked for. I've never had a use case that I can't do with Lucid.
What do you dislike about the product?
It've had hiccups when I used it in non-Chrome browsers, but nothing significant.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's the digramming tool of choice for my team and it's an indispensable part of our work.
Very smooth, collaborative brainstorm
What do you like best about the product?
I think the experience works very smoothly when I'm jolting some thoughts on a visual form and allow others to complement. The conversation then shifts from a vague concept to something more substancial. It also allows you to shift the discussion to certain aspects of the solution instead of the last one that was discussed because without visual support not everyone feels confortable to go back to something that was discussed 20m ago.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think, based on my experience on two separate companies that use(d) Lucid was the licensing. It was always a theme of subject and some chose to switch to other products like Figma that had a easier licensing fee.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simultaneous colaboration from others on what my mind is thinking.
First time user after being asked to review a document created by an external company
What do you like best about the product?
As a first time user with no experience of the app, the user experience was extremely easy. The flow of accepting the collab request/invite, to using SSO and getting immedaite access to the document worked perfectly. The UI was easy to understand for the basic use case I had to carry out (reviewing, not creating).
What do you dislike about the product?
It wasn't immediately obvious how to move around the project, instinctively I mouse scrolled to move up and down but discovered the zoom in/out funtion. Then shift + scroll was obvious to scroll left/right, as is native to other apps/browser behaviour, but it took me some time to discover ctrl + shift + scroll to scroll up and down. From a UX perspective I would expect zoom in/out controls to be switched with the scroll up/down controlls.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to share and collaborate on diagrams
Good tool for Scrum Masters
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to create with Lucid. I'm very visual & the tools available within Lucid help me to create eye-catching whiteboard tasks, retros, and team-building events.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lucid definitely comes with a bit of a learning process. I know there are more functions available but it takes time to learn how to use them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows for my teams to actively participate without always speaking. It also is a record of meeting that everyone can always reference later. Using Lucid always causes my teams to fully particiapate.
Simple UI but quite effective
What do you like best about the product?
Lucid is intuitive and very easy to use. It does what it is supposed to do in a very straightforward manner.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI design feels kinda "old" and less fancy than some competitors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating diagrams showing business or software flows.
Reviewing Lucid: A Productive Tool
What do you like best about the product?
One of the few best things of Lucid is that it is ideal to draw diagrams, for data visualisation, and to collaborate on the same platform, that too in real-time. It maks daily frequent meetings like Scrum much easier! Interface and UI is also clean and great.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing would be that the more advanced features would take more time to learn and implement especially if you are a new user. Also, the premium subscription prices can be a little high, which may not be good for teams within a smaller budget.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucid makes it easy to solve problems like making complex ideas and projects, which is easier to share. With Lucid you can create diagrams and charts that everyone can see at the same time and work on it together thus saving time. It is also beneficial as it makes teamwork and planning smoother since anyone on the team can their input.
Nice features, centered on usecases with ample choice of different templates
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to start by chosing visual features based on task/product/project, easy to share and collaborate with the team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Could be hard to start creating new diagram if usecase does not follow one of the proposed templates, not obvious how to make team to use consistent types of visual representation (need to agree off-line to use certain subset of visuals), need more generic templates
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team collaboration is very easy with Lucid, especially for teams with remote workers and offices in different locations.
Easy to use charts to create, and what's more important to keep updated as systems change.

Modern UI for Visual Diagrams
What do you like best about the product?
Enhancements over Visio, specifically collaboaration abilities and overall UI for symbols.
What do you dislike about the product?
Exporting via PDF or Visio format sometimes has compatability issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucid solves problem with sharing diagrams with internal and external users who may not have Visio.
