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.
User friendly
What do you like best about the product?
I like the user friendly tools and features
What do you dislike about the product?
Navigating from creating the charts to managing files is not always the more intuitive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My colleagues really appreciate flowcharts to understanding requirements and Lucid enables that
Intuitive and easy to get started
What do you like best about the product?
There are simple but very helpful and thoughtful features for diagramming. For example, the arrows stay attached to shapes even when they move; building a key allows you to easily drag and drop new shapes using the same design; there are a lot of shapes and diagram templates to choose from.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be overwhelming to get started. Starting a new account with a template to demo different features would be helpful. Changing the arrow type is really confusing.

The real-time collaboration feature allows team members to work together smoothly, even from remote locations. It’s incredibly helpful for brainstorming sessions and mapping out processes visually.

What do you dislike about the product?
The interface can sometimes feel a bit laggy with larger files, which disrupts workflow during intense brainstorming sessions.
Some features feel a bit complex at first and could benefit from more onboarding resources or tutorials for new users.
Pricing could be more flexible, especially for smaller teams or freelancers who might not need the full suite of features.

Collaborative and user friendly
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to navigate and learn the ins and outs without actually requiring an in depth tutorial. It helps our team collaborate and share ideas and faciliate meeting agendas.

It helps a larger team brainstorm different topics live during meetings and then creates a clear/concise way to review answers live as well.
Amazing for marketing teams

What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a bit overwhelming to learn at first.

Visually seeing the customer journey for our complex programs. Easy to make management understand where the flow will go.
Easy to use with great features
What do you like best about the product?
This software was easy to use and feature rich. I had no issues picking it up having used some similar products in the past. I tried it since the visualization tool my company has been using didn't have the features I was looking for in a specific project. I didn't try out any of the collaboration/multi-user features, but I imagine they are pretty standard for any standard online visualization tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
While I think the features are valuable, our company already has a subscription to another visualization tool, and we don't use it frequently. The cost difference would be worth it, in my opinion, if we were using more of the features and using the software overall more regularly but that isn't the case at the moment, and I think for casual users that don't require many features, there are cheaper alternatives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lucid has a large variety of existing shapes for many visualization applications that are separated by library to avoid cluttering the workspace, and allows addition of custom shapes to easily allow even more customization. I could see Lucid being beneficial for just about any visualization need.
Lucid charts datapath
What do you like best about the product?
Begin able to visually see my data path design before creating a schematic in my computer. Helped me a lot.
What do you dislike about the product?
The amount of free shapes you get, probably would be useful to have more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am working on a project creating a processor. Our professor recommended that before wiring everything together just going by heart, we should create a schematic using lucid charts. It helped us make the design more efficient.
Easy to use and collaborate
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use
Nice collaborative functions
