Support Rating	No answers on this topic	The support for draw.io is pretty decent, considering it is a free website. I had a question one time when I was trying to do something, so I sent an email to their support email and got a response fairly quickly with an answer to my question.

Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	draw.io is actually free of cost, while Miro, Visio, and Whimsical are paid or come with paid premium versions. Miro does have excellent collaboration, while Visio and Whimsical are simply basic and normal. draw.io has very limited ways to collaborate. Templates are more organized in other tools, but in draw.io they're hard to discover. One advantage draw.io has over these tools is the offline access support as well as the feature-rich UI.

Return on Investment	No answers on this topic	Draw.io has given us a free place to create basic diagrams, and more options for upgrading in the future when we need more, so it saves a bit of money in that regard. Draw.io allows us to share diagrams with our clients without the burden of making them install new software, thus increasing client happiness and making it more likely we'll get return business.
