Incentivized Helpful? GH Genie Huff-Forkner Co-Owner, Executive Director of Marketing & Public Relations Chose SmartDraw SmartDraw is NEXT LEVEL!

MF Michael Florant Owner and Head Instructor Chose SmartDraw Better priced and easier to work with. Incentivized Helpful? BH Brad Holliday, PHR, SHRM-CP, CBM, MBA Chief People Officer Chose SmartDraw As noted in first question, SmartDraw has them beat in every category I can think of (except for price; but need to keep in mind the old adage "you get what you pay for"!). This product allows for VASTLY-improved uploading of data than the Lucidchart product, and customer … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose SmartDraw We haven't selected other tools, SmartDraw was our test product and we are in the middle of determining if we will go with them long term. Incentivized Helpful? CR Cyndi Recker System Engineer and Architect Chose SmartDraw Indigo Studio and Visio were other products used in my department. We chose SmartDraw over Visio on both features and cost. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose SmartDraw We have used Corel Draw and Adobe Acrobat. Both of those tools were good when they came out but the abilities of SmartDraw far outweigh both those tools. Corel Draw was also more complex to operate and do tasks, as was Adobe Acrobat in which some basic tasks took additional … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Cloudairy	SmartDraw
Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	As a developer i use it extensively for sharing ideas specially related for system design and application flows. Entire team finds it comfortable to use it, understand it and make changes swiftly. We use it for High Level System design. While discussing the only missing thing we find about it is the integration of an ide for Low Level Design but in my opinion this tool isn't made for that purpose. Incentivized MK Mukul Kumar Software Engineer Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	Provides examples to work off of--these are helpful when you don't know exactly where to start. Provides a number of stylistic options without making things too complex, so you can be creative without getting overwhelmed. Provides a wide variety of templates, meets a wide variety of needs. Incentivized KH Kimberly Higgins Paralegal Assistant Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	A month-to-month plan would be ideal for users that don't have a need to create many projects The sidebar navigation can be a little confusing with all of the tools listed. Offering customizable plans with only the feature you need would simplify navigation Incentivized Genie Huff-Forkner Co-Owner, Executive Director of Marketing & Public Relations Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	They are always very helpful, we get computers every two years and I have to call them to move the license from one computer to another and they do it with a smile in their voice! Incentivized Trish Kootstra Office Manager Read full review
Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	As noted in first question, SmartDraw has them beat in every category I can think of (except for price; but need to keep in mind the old adage "you get what you pay for"!). This product allows for VASTLY-improved uploading of data than the Lucidchart product, and customer service is real, tangible service... they understand that when you have a question and need an answer, waiting 2 or 3 days for an email response is not acceptable.

Return on Investment	No answers on this topic	SmartDraw has provided good return for our internal purposes. Using it to understand an organization's structure and inner workings has been valuable. On the client side, creating steps and businesses processes has also been a big plus. It has helped decrease confusing reporting structures and has provided a detailed map for individuals to understand where they fit within their organization. Unfortunately, SmartDraw has been somewhat inefficient with some of the more complex projects on our plate and has really deterred certain employees from even wanting to use it.
