Cacoo vs. Creately

Particularly helpful to an organization that has Windows people who are staunch Visio users and Mac people who are die-hard OmniGraffle or Sketch users.

The software offers simple, intuitive features for diagramming and collaboration. It has an easy-to-learn design and very responsive customer support. Availability of real-time editing features and seamless integration with other systems. Creately software does not have offline use. It depends heavily on a strong internet connection, which is expensive and sometimes unavailable.

Cacoo is web-based and OS independent. OmniGraffle is a local install and mac only. Microsoft Visio is a desktop app also and Windows only. Two strikes for me, as I use between 2-4 different computers daily where I expect my applications to be always up-to-date and files synchronized.

Creately's folder system is a novel feature that beats its competitors. It helps keep everything organized. In addition, there are many more customization possibilities, especially in the shapes and in the library of templates and drawings. It has an intelligent drawing capability superior to all the competition, allowing more customization and detail.

Incentivized

• Easier to diagram and create workflows without having to engage a designer's assistance. That means staff at lower billable hourly rates, reducing overall admin or billable hours cost.
• Less time involved in creating support documents for less robust product options. Again, reducing overall admin or billable hours cost.
• Most of our staff use the free version so no added cost until they are familiar and really embrace it = a reduction in upfront cost.

Incentivized

• Helped the team work collaboratively by sharing on the ideas on Canvas
• Boosted the client engagement whenever this tool is used
• Made the work easier by providing the predesigned templates
