Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite to build AWS architecture diagrams. I also use it to describe application flows for different stakeholders.

using Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite allows us to collaborate across multiple platforms without the need for a office 365 license. Collaborating with vendors and third parties makes it externally easy as well. Easy to use product

Likelihood to Recommend

Works very well with AWS and other cloud platform templates

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

For my department, we are primarily using Lucidchart as a process visualization tool. Wwe use it to document workflows, department, SOPs, handoffs, so that we have something we can give people rather than just a verbal training or a text document, so something visual they can look at.

Likelihood to Recommend

So I think it's well suited, particularly, for internal documentation. So for our department, for other departments, when it's less suited is probably when you're pushing out more corporate level messaging, you're probably going to kick out to a PDF or something that's more static so that people aren't in an app. That's not to say that it's not suited for that use case. I think it sort of changes based on the objective. So we're not going to send out a link to Lucidchart to the company, we're going to send them the PDF.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It helps create Sequence diagrams , component diagram, workflows etc for our product and software services. This helps to collaborate better being remote team to brainstorm and express our design and thought process, identify issues early on, get sign off from stakeholders. It also helps to get feedback from SMEs and identify corner cases or use cases missed

Likelihood to Recommend

Remote team that needs to collaborate , needs to create diagrams quickly using Azure/GCS/AWS and wants to use components from these tech stacks

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite for our clients as we are a tech company that half of us are in sales and product development, and the other half are implementors and consultants for our clients. So either we are using the tools for internal collaboration between product and sales to give potential customers the best demos we can, or as consultants we can collaborate with outside clients as to diagram their use cases and needs to demonstrate how we can improve their business processes.

Likelihood to Recommend

Helps with diagraming and project management. Works well when you need to collaborate between different departments that share similar goals, or to help collaborate with clients. I haven't seen a lot of cases where it doesn't work for us yet. Probably isn't too helpful if you don't need to integrate other softwares you are using.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

<div>I use it to diagram and collaborate on software cloud architecture. I've used it for several years, it has worked well for me when I need a mutual understanding of the cloud architecture, or when designing a new software service.</div><div>It is essential to have a diagram to ensure mutual understanding, and not just paragraphs of words.</div>

Likelihood to Recommend

<div>Lucid is great when collaborating remotely, and both people have access to a doc. Really shines in cloud architecture design, with official icons from major cloud providers.</div><div>I also enjoy being able to download a chart as a pdf, png, or any file type that I need.</div><div>Less useful for freehand drawing of random things, I prefer to not be on a laptop / use a mouse for those kinds of things. Not necessarily a shortcoming of the tool, more that an actual whiteboard is better, or at least an ipad with a pen.</div>

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite to create diagrams of customers' product flow and help visualize the connection between components in our product, both externally and internally.

When we need to help customers' "see" a plan of action, that is usually very complex to just articulate, showing them the process and how elements connect to one another is a great way to get buy-in and collaboration. Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite helps me create these visualizations that I can share with customers and make sure everyone is aligned.

Additionally, we can use the app to create org charts and dependency diagrams.

Likelihood to Recommend

When you need to create a diagram or a visual to illustrate a had topic.

When you want to show dependencies and connections between elements.

When you want to be able to share the content using google workspace.

It is less appropriate, if you do not have a vision in mind for what visual is would like to have.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite is used to collaborate and create business process diagrams along with ERDs of platforms we work with in order help explain to potential customers how systems integrate. This is a useful for those who need more visual cues while presenting on screen or within Scope of Work Documents.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is well suited to collaboaration with colleagues and customers alike, for creating flow diagrams and ERD documents. I have used it for this for a number of years now and haven't used a better tool. The ability to import draw.io documents is also useful which i recently noticed is possible.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Lucid for process mapping multiple processes at my job.

Likelihood to Recommend

It's great for structuring processes that aren't black and white. The ease of displaying "If-then" scenarios are great and visually appealing

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it to roadmap projects. This helps with our issues with knowing the road blocks, issues, and various action points that we need to address prior to actually getting into the project. We then use it as our source to ensure we are ontime and tracking towards completion. It is used across a team of approx 15 people.

Likelihood to Recommend

I htink it is well suited to being used for project mapping and collaboration within teams and across teams to get on the same page when it comes to a project plan for future. It isn't as suited for mapping out solo tasks I think.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite at work as a visual collaboration tool, both remotely and in the office in-person. We mainly it as a companion piece to Microsoft Visio to create more complete requirements gathering exercises, and also for Agile ceremonies such as retrospectives and sprint planning sessions. It's particularly great for enabling our teams to work together to understand complex problems remotely on a shared board.

Likelihood to Recommend

Very well suited to any type of Business Analysis work. Also great for project planning and portfolio reporting. Visualising problems and creating process flows also very good.

The BA team still prefer to use Visio for more detailed process mapping, so this could perhaps be improved.
