Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Visio

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.
  • Create and explain payment flows
  • API and system designs
  • team org chart
  • Reduce monthly fee per user
  • add animations
  • better sharing of charts externally
  • Share with MS office word and Excel
  • templates
  • process flow diagrams
  • It helps in better diagrams which explains lots of complex topic easity
  • template helps in saving time
  • It helps in training new members with knowledge base
We have used Lucid charts in the past, Lucid chart does the job well. Microsoft Visio has more templates and seamless integration with MS word and excel. Both of the software does the diagram and charting pretty well but Visio is costly in comparison to Lucid charts. If you have basic usage of charting software, I would recommend Lucid charts

It is very useful in explaining complex topics in diagrams and can be used to create org charts. We use it to create and share various flows like data flow across the system, payments trace, and ideate on API and system design. It is very user-friendly and the learning curve is quite small.
