- Document notes
Critical for getting and staying ahead
- Clean and easy to navigate on a desktop
- Symbols and shapes are simple & easy to edit
- Group work features allows free thinking as well as focused collaboration
- The software is intuitive for new people while remaining powerful for more experienced folks
- As always with these kinds of software's, there is opportunity to allow for connections to other software's like excel or Smartsheet
- I would like to see some sort of earmarking for certain symbols to allow for pulling something like (in our case) all 'communications sent' from multiple boards into one view
- I think video/ written tutorials to help guide a user to a useful template along with how to use/facilitate a session with it would be helpful.
A competent whiteboard and visio replacement
I use it to visualize workflows with business teams. Having a common visual representation helps everyone stay on the same page.
I also use the board to elicit feedback during online brainstorming sessions on those same workflows.
With developers, it helps to have them also witness the workflow defined and refined. We then collaborate on solution design together to ensure that the solution matches the business requirements.
- Organizing content with frames
- creating quick workflows
- brainstorming as a team
- More meeting management such as music during voting session
- Simpler copy/paste from external clipboards
- Ability to download entire boards as a flat file for backup and portability
Not so good for ad hoc design or working directly on mock-ups. Even PowerPoint does a better job if one wants to "hack" a quick visualization for a user interface.
Also the lack of ability to export as a flat file gives less portability as such.
I Love Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite
- Flow chart creation
- Easily collaborating across teams
- More templates for varied use cases
Lucidchart Use
- Building charts from scratch
- The choice of templates
- The ease of transfer from Lucidchart to a number of types of files (PDF, PENG, etc.)
- The format of the text is not very user-friendly
- The colors available for the boxes (format)
- Being able to open a chart and work on it directly from Teams (which I cannot do now)
Best all-round free drawing diagram tool.
- Solutioning the custom solutions where we want to get clear understanding of how the tech stacks are being used
- Process flow diagrams
- Structure based designs and architecture
- Branded logos like AWS S3, SFTP etc.
- The AI generation is too basic. May be needs training with detailed data
- The chart when shared is sharing all the tabs. Can we limit to 1 tab
Amazing Tool to Collaborate Ideas
2) Share and collect ideas, comments and advices
3) seek endoresment and approval for progressive results and record milestone suucesses
4) One-stop collaboration platform can integrate with Zoom and Teams
Conclusively, it is a very helpful tools for project design and management
- Mind Map
- Roadmap
- ERD
- hand drawn diagram conversion
- hand drawn notes conversion
- Voice to text conversion
- Workflow action, reminder and approval alertness
Not good for AI conversion
Fantastic Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite

- Improve whiteboard
Excellence collaboration software

Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite is great for designers!
- User flows
- Charting
- Note Taking
- Setting up Jira seems confusing
- Dynamic Table is confusing I go back to the old one
- More tutorials would be helpful
Love this product!
- Housing brain storming sessions
- Clear project guidelines
- User stories and workflows

Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite Lucidchart is a breeze
- Database import
- Charting simplified
- As complex as needed
- To be honest, is hard to say ibe are of improvement. Maybe website load times could be improved?
The less appropriate scenario would be the Org Chart of our company, where another tool is used.
Lucid Software - easy to use - beginner friendly
- website mapping
- brainstorming
- organizational charts
- Advanced/AI features
- interactivity
- additional templates
- Ease of Use
- Variety of tools
- Collaborative function
- Hotkeys
- User customization
- System suggestions
- Full-on AI integration
- Flowcharts
- Collaboration
- User-friendly UI / UX
- Flowcharts pasted to powerpoints and Google Slides can be improved further - a bit low quality imo (either distorted etc)
- Looking to have a smart AI functionality where it can guide user on potential breaks on process flows and suggest alternatives.
Another example is through Lucidchart our T&Q was able to effectively conduct process trainings. Agents are able to effectively appreciate learning through visuals and not through lengthy documents.

Hooray for Lucidchart
- Easily creating flowcharts and process maps

- It can take users a bit to get used to the zoom and scroll interface but I wouldn't change it.
Visualization made easy!
- Intuitive user interface
- Adequate shapes and templates
- Integrates well with other apps and services
- Real-Time Collaboration
- Pricing - No options for a one-time purchase like Microsoft's Visio

New to Lucid and Very Impressed

We have been using LucidChart at INTERTEL for the last 4 years, and it is a really excellent chart and diagram solution. We are using it to map out all our processes across the whole company, from sales and marketing to operations and support. Even our programming department uses it for their internal processes, and they have been using SCRUM internally. Having all our processes mapped out really help us to understand if there are any roadblocks in our organization, and the correct flow of information from one department to the other. But the main use we have for it is that it allows us to assign responsibilities for each part of the process to the correct person/department, and in our industry having this information is key. Also, it is a plus that the cost of the license is not that expensive compared to other similar solutions, and even the free version has enough features and options to help out everyone. We recommend LucidChart to everyone that asks us about it.
- Mapping out processes and workflows
- Allowing the whole enterprise to see how each process interacts with the other departments
- Pointing out areas of opportunity between each process
- Eliminating unneeded steps in each process
- Helping the new hires to understand the process and areas that they are going to help with
- Printing each chart out and having them in every department helps when trying to change or update a process
- The free version offers a lot of functionality but you cannot print the complete chart
- Translate between languages, our company is in Mexico but we have a lot of people coming from the USA
- Add the option to import or make our own shapes and chart types
It is not so well suited for companies that only have one process that they follow all day long, or that they cannot change or update because of company policies of requirements. Also, if your industry is regulated by the government, it does not make sense to have all your processes in LucidChart, since you are probably getting a lot of them from the government and cannot make any updates to them, or change them in any way shape or form.
- Good collection of icons from various cloud providers
- Smooth drawing capability making job easier
- Web storage of diagrams
- Better user interface - simple and useful
- More support for standard industry icons
A lucid review of an awesomely useful tool
I also used it to chart a big portion of our CI/CD ecosystem, which contains tens of services communicating with each other by RPC and message queues. This mapping was a life saver to make sense of current and legacy flows, and I come back to tis diagram often to understand or remember how services talk to each other.
- Creation of diagrams and charts is easy, intuitive and rich with editing and customization options
- Collaboration with team members is a breeze and is a powerful ability
- Integration with google docs works well and saves the need of exporting and importing manually on every change
- There is no native application, only SaaS
There is a history of modifications by users, and the ability to comment on components of the chart, similar to Google Docs.
Also, having all diagrams "in the cloud" is very convenient and enhances the collaborative easiness of the tool.
But even when the rest of the team does not use it, Lucidchart is still a good solution for individual productiveness, which is how I started out my work with it.
