Microsoft Visio

Microsoft Visio is very convenient because it allows us to make prototypes of software before the design is finalised. It is good as we can make several prototypes and see which works the best. The ease of making them is what makes it a lifesaver as one can see the entire process documented and changes can be recommended. Getting a visual representation via the prototype allows for better feedback. Microsoft Visio is a timesaver because different looks can be tried before it goes into the next stage.

One of the things we needed to do in the company was to have a better management of developing the maps and diagrams, not only of the company's processes but also processes that we were going to do with the clients. Previously we had used other tools to do this, but always we felt that something was missing, maybe more ease of use and integration with other technologies that we already used

I use Microsoft Visio as a tool to visualize processes through diagrams and flows. It is a very useful and creative tool to display all the parts that take part in any kind of process, and it helps to understand it better and create solutions for any opportunity area. I use this software in my school projects to innovate and improve processes, where I get to visualize all the actions and improvements through the diagrams I create in Microsoft Visio.

We use Microsoft Visio for all kinds of mapping and visualization needs. I was introduced to it by a new hire who “sketched” out a basic plan for an event were were planning, and since then we’ve adopted it company wide. It serves as a sort of "AutoCAD lite” for simple drafting, makes great org charts, flow charts and has been useful for mind-maps and brainstorming sessions.

Microsoft Visio is used by our organization to diagram out workflow. We operate in many countries and trade on various exchanges. Microsoft Visio is used by our programing team to understand process and workflow and ensure we are routing all trades and orders to the correct venue specified in our workflow.

Microsoft Visio is a program that saves a lot of time since it makes it simple to build shapes and link them using connectors. We can quickly change the diagram, search for specific shapes, and verify the accessibility options. If necessary, we may add a comment. Additionally, we have the option of accessing already-created diagrams and adding images from our desktops or the internet. This tool works well for taking notes, especially for students learning to code who can quickly generate flowcharts.

Microsoft Visio is made free of charge to all our university's teaching teams, students and researchers. The use we make of it varies according to our daily needs. However, being a versatile tool allows us to use it for different purposes, even very different from each other. For example, we use it a lot both in organizing the activities of researcher working groups and in complex research. We also use it in courses with our students to help them manage their business processes.

We use Microsoft Visio to draw up overall org charts.
We also use it to in IT to create network diagrams, data and work flows.

We use Microsoft Visio to design various internal operational processes ranging from creating visual workflows to customizing user interfaces. I play a role of a proxy product owner along with my other designated duties. Particularly in product management; Microsoft Visio makes it a lot easier for us to diagram and show the processes and journey step by step. Additionally, Microsoft Visio also plays a crucial role in training and workshops where brainstorming becomes quite easy for the team members using Microsoft Visio's intuitive charts and flows.

We use it as part of our Window's package, to create information visualization in the form of easy-to-follow flow charts. The teachers in our institution use Visio as part of the content creation process for class. We enjoy how easy it is to set it up to work with Teams and the Template selection.

We currently use Microsoft Visio as a tool for process control and understanding. All of the departments within our organization require precise workflows in order to operate at the highest level. That's where Visio comes into play, allowing us to see working processes visually and make adjustments to eliminate redundant and unnecessary steps.

Visio is our go to solution for creating diagrams and documentation. We have found no other tool that matches the scope and flexibility of Visio, and now with the free basic web app that is included in Microsoft 365 business plans, we can use it across the organisation without needing to purchase addition licences.

Microsoft Visio came in with Office 365 bundle. While the app was rarely used before, we started using it as an alternative to sketching process flows and flow charts on PowerPoint. It offers handy tools and templates to design shapes and object-based drawings. Although we mainly use it for process flow designs, it certainly has the potential to be used as any layout designing tool, based on users' creativity and expertise. I have seen event and marketing teams using Visio to design floor plans etc.

I use MS Visio for designing / updating / Modifying the network topology. MS Visio make simple to demonstrate the design of the network flow.

I use Visio to create flow charts of business processes and org charts. Visio is a wonderfully easy-to-use industry-standard tool.

Working in Marketing in a client-facing position, data visualization is a must. Not only for pitching our own products and services, but also to help my clients do the same in their own organization. I've been working in the Microsoft ecosystem ever since I was first in business, so it's nice to have an easy to use program like this under the Microsoft umbrella.

I use it to create and ideate payment flows, diagrams for presentations, and API designs. It helps in creating a great visual explanation of complex problems which we use to train and present internally and externally.

Microsoft Visio is used to create process maps and outline the flow of a process within the company. Visio helps to identify key controls within a process and helps to explain how certain systems or processes are related to one another. This gives team members and other people a visual idea of the flow of a process that may be examined. I have been using Visio for two years, and I love the visual representation that the final product leaves you.

We are documenting our MarTech stack and all associated interactions, integrations, and workflows.

Visio works for us in a variety of ways, from handling organizational charts to developing process flow charts, office layouts, IT network diagramming, and complex relational database query visualization. Different departments use the product for different purposes, and it really does very nicely in handling a variety of user needs.

I used it to quickly make floor plans where we detail, facilities, furniture, lights, company assets, parking, etc. On the floor plans, we tend to manipulate a large extension of the gallery tools to find office equipment, decoration, and key parts of the floor plan like elevators, escalators, parking, doors and toilet facilities. During the quality management systems implementation as AS9100 and ISO 9001 we have to develop or recreate processes and procedures that take a good amount of time, thanks to Visio we are able to keep the files safe, and always available for further editing and improvement. Once we are done creating all these very complicated processes, it is a must to have a full company process mapping, MS Visio is very good for this task recreating graphically what otherwise will be a very lengthy text, this is a birds-eye view of the company's process and a whole including the full organizational chart. The competitor Lucidchart does not feature all the amazing tools Visio does, I like much better the customer interface of MS Visio and the compatibility with other MS software. Overall MS Visio is a very strong communication tool, that extends to frontiers that we didn't use yet but I know exist, like the electric circuit. Thanks for the opportunity to share this information, I hope is somehow useful. Saul Tarazona

The company I currently work for has very extensive and complicated processes that we use to market big data, and because of this, it is sometimes a challenge to explain what we do to new clients or employees. We have successfully used Visio to explain these intricate processes in a way that anyone can understand by easily creating clear and concise infographics and charts.

We as UI/UX designers do a lot of research and testing, and for that, we make a lot of diagrams and flowcharts that help us to find the user's pain points and stuff. And for that, we regularly use Microsoft Visio and so far we are more than happy. Earlier we were using wireframe and photoshop tools, but it was way more time-consuming and hard to make complex diagrams. With Visio, it became a really easy process and with its templates and pre-made shapes, it made our process much faster and more efficient. It also makes 3D map diagrams which are helpful in a lot of cases and you can pull data from external sources, so really easy to map user testing data for us.

I use Visio to create organization charts, map out business processes, and design financial system diagrams. I often link it to presentations in powerpoint, have underlying excel models to support some of the quantitative analysis, and post it to the Team when sharing with coworkers. I also convert it to Lucid when working with teams that are not on as familiar with the application.
