ConceptDraw DIAGRAM vs. Infogram

Great for anything that you would use Microsoft Visio for. It is a great software and has a great team behind it. At the end of the day, it will do everything that you need it to and it looks like they are always expanding. I have been surprised by their product and plan to continue to use it in my nonprofit role. If you are hesitant, don't be, it is everything Visio is plus more.

Infogram is perfect for creating engaging and professional-looking infographics, data visualizations, and social media content with no technical knowledge required. I have worked with NGOs with no technical or design staff that need to get their message out there or raise awareness about something. Infogram is easy and quick to use and the results look great. Infogram is not heavyweight data visualization software, it's best for summarizing and explaining the results of data analysis to an audience or breaking down complex concepts to make them understandable to the general public.

• Keyboard shortcuts are non-intuitive
• Re-scaling can be tricky if you don't set the page up correctly at the beginning of your project

• I gave it a 10 for a reason....
• Some graphs could have more features to change their appearance (but perhaps then it wouldn’t be as simple)
• Should have a better way to copy and paste to another app

It needs a bunch of work. For the price it could be better. And even though I am using it still I find it very difficult to use but I make it work

I've never had any major problems with the ConceptDraw team. Actually, they update their software frequently. It's always small updates, but they're necessary to make sure it will work properly. I had a question one time and decided to send to them. The problem was solved in less than three hours, which I believe is a really good point to consider.

I have personally always had quick, friendly, and helpful responses from the Infogram team.

Cheaper, lower learning curve. Looked for something that would meet our needs and allow us to quickly diagram a database and process maps. I have been using this in place of Visio and the one-time purchase is much better than a Microsoft sub. Looking forward to using this software in the future and hoping to get a copy for college classes as well in Database Design.

Infogram's most unique strength is its focus on infographics, providing a great number of templates and at the same time connecting such graphics with data sources. Prezi is great for presentation, but it provides static infographics. Illustrator and Photoshop have some possible ways to integrate data into their graphics, but they are rudimentary compared to Infogram's abilities. Despite the huge power of Photoshop and Illustrator for creating specific images, Infogram is easier and more powerful in conveying data, making it the best option for infographics.

• Has a free user option and it is faster and easier to build great graphical graphs.
• Now I don’t have to ask design guys to make me a fancier graph for a presentation.
• After the first graphs are made I can reuse them for the next month's presentation.
