ConceptDraw DIAGRAM has been praised by users for its intuitive diagram creation capabilities, making it a valuable tool for both students and professionals. Many reviewers have found the software to be highly useful in creating PowerPoint slide presentations, as well as developing slides, graphics, and illustrations. Users appreciate the convenience of being able to seamlessly open Visio files with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM, making it a preferred alternative. The program is commonly used for diagramming system architecture, conveying requirements and specifications to development teams, and creating status updates and timelines for meetings and marketing materials. Additionally, ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a cost-effective solution for producing documentation such as rack diagrams, network maps, and website wireframes. Its extra solutions libraries allow users to create professional diagrams that can be shared in multiple formats. Overall, users find ConceptDraw DIAGRAM easier to use than Visio, especially with the addition of the cropping tool in version 6. The software's ability to create flowcharts is particularly valued in the design process for projects involving embedded processors and Assembler language.

Nice Collections of Images and Shapes: Several users have mentioned that they appreciate the extensive collections of images and shapes provided by the software. This feature has allowed them to easily create visually appealing diagrams in just seconds.

Intuitive Interface and Low Learning Curve: Many reviewers have found the arrangement of commands in the software to be intuitive, which greatly reduces the learning curve. This user-friendly interface has made it easy for them to quickly and efficiently create various types of diagrams.

These resources have been helpful in understanding the usage of different diagram types. Additionally, with drag and drop creation available for dozens of different diagram types, this software is praised for its user-friendliness.

Pricing Structure: Many users have expressed disappointment with the pricing structure, feeling that they have been charged for additional shapes and images. This approach detracts from the overall value of the software.

Functionality Quirks: Several reviewers have found the overall functionality of the software to be quirky and difficult to use. They specifically mentioned issues with imprecise item movement, making it challenging to position elements accurately. Additionally, working with layers was described as being done in a strange way, further complicating the design process.

Graphics Loading Issues: A significant number of users experienced problems with graphics not loading properly within the software. This issue added frustration to an already complex drag and drop system, making it difficult to create and edit designs seamlessly.

Users have made several recommendations based on their experience with ConceptDraw.

  1. Many users recommend comparing ConceptDraw to Visio to identify the standout features. This comparison can help users determine if ConceptDraw is a better fit for their needs.

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.

Likelihood to recommend? Overall, absolutely. I'm very satisfied with ConceptDraw and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. I found it very easy to get up and running producing flow chart diagrams. I find it intuitive, flexible and it does what it says. Moreover it's very much an "alive" product with regular updates.

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is well suited to quickly draw different types of unrelated diagrams. If you are looking for a tool for a specific type of diagram that might have multiple pages and need advanced drawing control, then this is not that suitable.

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a great all-around drawing, mapping, and visualization product. We bought it as a cheaper option to Visio, but have been consistently impressed with the large set of features and capabilities. To be able to easily create complicated charts and diagrams and then be able to export them straight into HTML for our website has been one of the coolest, and most unexpected, discoveries in purchasing this software.

I can't tell a lot about all the usages of CDDiagram, since my main focus is on Chemical Engineering and P&ID application, but they have an enormous variety of libraries. If you are able to find the kind of work you're looking for, I believe you're good to download it and start to improve your Diagrams.

Eh, this is a kind of a sitting on the fence answer. On one hand, I can't recommend it but on the other, I can. If they fixed the resource-hogging and the weird quirky menus/actions then I would recommend it more. I can not overlook the beautiful and clean layouts and graphics that this software does spit out though...it is just a bumpy ride to get there.
