all the shapes and preloaded templates, minimize the time to diagram any solution

Not much, iit's great. Some shapes I haven't found , once I did not find a shape for windows server failover cluster concept, but 99% of the shapes I have looked for are there.

Quick and easy to get started with. Transition to using Visio was seamless. Easy to work with.

Getting to know the navigation and scrolling too a little bit of time.

Didn't have to wait for IT to set me up with Visio.

The interface is easy to learn and has a suitable structure to be able to store and collaborate with teams effectively. Intergrations with other collaborative tools, like slack, Sharepoint/Onedrive etc make it even more compelling to adopt and use.

Um, not much really, maybe some more fonts?

Central place for our business to create the documentation required for technical projects. Centralised place for us to create templates to keep our work at a high consistency level.

The templates are great and an easy start to creating flowcharts

There isnt much I dont like. I personally expense this and use it for work- thats how much I like using this.

Its helping me map out processes.

Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite is definitely ahead of its time. I am a novice and just wanted to see what it can offer. This is an amazing product for individuals with an inquisitive mindset. Still understanding the templates and research

Lucid Visuals Collaboration Suite offer templates and ideas. There are still many steps to fully understand the product. Will definitely need time and patience to understand all the capabilities.

With certain personality types in my office they are visual learners so this product helps them understand in a much simpler and quicker way.

The drag and drop interface is mostly intuitive, and there are plenty of templates to get started quickly. Real-time collaboration works fine for small teams - I could see changes made by coworkers almost instantly. It integrates well with other products like Google Drive and Slack, which was handy for our remote setup. The presentation mode was surprisingly useful during meetups.

The shape search often pulls up unrelated icons, making it slower to build specific workflows.

It's helping our team visualize workflows and system designs that are hard to explain over chat or email. We use it to map out user journeys, and org charts. It makes remote collaboration a bit easier since we can all edit and comment in one shared space instead of emailing PDFs back and forth.

Sometimes I need to collaborate with a couple of colleagues on a complex flowchart, and having them right beside me working on the same chart, definitely boosts productivity.

Sometimes when some charts are so big, it takes a lot to render, but that might be just my PC…

Collaborating with several team members can sometimes get messy, especially when you're also responsible for reviewing and improving multiple documents, diagrams, and more. This is exactly where Lucid shines, making the collaboration smoother.

It integrates with slack , jira and confluence and having version control system.

With complex diagrams , the software sometimes lag and doesn't perform better.

Drawing the workflow and execution task helps me more.

There were a lot of options, and Lucid makes it pretty easy to get started with all of their template options. Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty simple to edit the shapes, colors, and connections to your liking.

While it was pretty easy to get started, it wasn't the most user friendly for a beginner. It took me a while to figure out how to navigate the page without zooming in and out. I also couldn't really figure out binning or grouping parts of the page. I also wish there was a way to easily change all of the figures on the page (change all arrows to 2x, for example). Figuring out how to create a rule was also not very intuitive, although I love the idea of it.

Lucid helped me to organize processes in a way that is easily shareable and editable. This was a great help in identifying process gaps, bottlenecks, and areas for improvement. Targeting these areas for improvement helps to maximize the efficiency of the business.

Its intuitive interface for creating a wide variety of diagrams, real-time collaboration capabilities, and extensive template library, making it easy to visualize complex ideas and work together.

The pricing structure can be a concern for some, especially for smaller teams or individual users needing advanced features. Occasionally, performance can be an issue with extremely large or complex diagrams.

Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite tackles the challenge of making complex ideas, processes, and systems easy to visualize and collaboratively develop. This benefits users by providing enhanced clarity, fostering better team alignment, and increasing overall efficiency in planning and execution.
