Pros

“It also offers a wide range of templates for flowcharts, organizational charts, project workflows, and floor plans, making it easy to start designing without building everything from scratch.”

Savya S.

Manager

“The software automatically aligns and formats shapes as they are added, which saves a lot of time compared to manually arranging elements in other tools.”

Savya S.

Manager

“However, when compared to professional design tools like AutoCAD, SmartDraw feels limited in terms of precision drafting, advanced customization, and handling complex technical drawings.”

Savya S.

Manager

Pros

“This is amazing at charting/ mapping rooms, placing furniture, and making it colorful so that people who live in the home (especially those with disabilities) can quickly see where they are and which route to take in case of an emergency.”

Betsy S.

OFFICE MANAGER

“Look no further, this is the tool for you, it really combines efficiency and beautifully crafted diagrams for everyone's need, from processes to building mind maps, it never let me down, although I don't use everything it has to offer, but I'm really pleased with it as I can show off the stunning visuals in my presentations, what's more, my creations can be easily shared with my colleagues and clients.”

Amy A.

IT Business Analyst

“Price can b slightly more economical.”

Amit K.

Sr. Manager

Cons

“User interface could be more streamlined, I constantly have to hit other tabs to use tools/options that I feel should be lumped together (like editing text, all text editing and formatting options should be together, not under separate tabs).”

Jensen H.

Crime scene technician

“The only thing I had difficulty with was making symbols display at a specific dimension.”

Gerald H.

Owner

“I also found navigating between the lbrary and selections a bit of a pain, wish what I use the most would stay in my selections.”

NANCY L.

Owner

Cons

“Then I was not able to Cancel the Service within the 20 Days of test. Before the periode ended I've requested the support to terminate my service because on my interface it was grayed out.”

Stefan W.

CISO

“The grafics are not as dynamic as it looks like.”

Stefan W.

CISO

“I immediately Uninstalled and reached out to customer service and have gotten the same one-around response that other users describe.”
