Pros and cons

It is best software for diagram and best for presentation. It does every task very efficiently and also this software is very user friendly so it is very easy to use this.
Overall it is a great tool for software development. It is a robust tool that serves experienced and novice developers, helping to transform abstract ideas into real, structured solutions.
I was quite pleased with how simple and easy it was to use. Its feature set is incredibly comprehensive, and you can perform pretty much anything you can imagine using it.
Understanding how to use the templates is very frustrating for me because they are hard to understand.
Navigating the templates can be quite a challenge, as they are quite difficult to comprehend, which did cause some frustration.
The templates can be a bit difficult to understand how to use it.

Comprehensive and Robust

Reviewed 7 months ago

Software Ideas Modeller has become my Goto tool for anything software / db engineering / design or documentation related - way better and more feature rich than visio, lucid or other tools I tried. Admittedly it took me a little while to work out how to be quick and productive with the interface, but the fact I have been using it now for over a year, and have not had to call support or seek help how to do functions is credit to the software. Good job guys!

Pros

I was looking for a software design tool that can visualise existing code and also be useful in designing new software. Software Ideas Modeller's reverse engineering of my C# code into UML class and other diagrams hit the spot perfectly. Following reverse engineering success I have used Software Ideas Modeller to present new ideas and to document and simplify complex relationships in important inner workings of code through. I've found Software Ideas Modeller to be a very Robust and Reliable product that has become essential for designing software and enabling teams to code up the concepts / designs.

Cons

It's all good, though creating notes / comments would be an area I'd like to see simplified and enhanced.

Enhance Organisation’s Data Visualisation using Software Ideas Modeler

Reviewed 7 months ago

My overall experience using this product is very positive and productive and ease my data visualisation problems for a large extent. It also helps us to gain the deep insights of organisations data and thus define future strategies accordingly by observing the customer behaviour.

Pros

I use this software since long to visualise the organisation data and provide a better presentation of datasets to the respective stakeholders. It also provides a robust platform to plan and create your customise software with this product. Its advance integration with AI and Machine Learning tools provides the predictive analysis and basic templates of software building you are working on. It also provides a simple and intuitive user interface which does not require any deep knowledge of any programming language for it’s smooth functionality which reduces the dependency on IT experts for its operation.

Cons

It is considered as a advance and huge product which might require the hiring of new personnel for its smooth implementation which might lead to additional investment to the organisation. It also does not provide a huge user community due to a new product in the market. Also, It does not provide any functionality in offline mode due to it’s huge dependency on internet connection.

A delight for fast paced engineering team

Reviewed a year ago
Pros

We started using V13 of the software ideas modeler to build the structure and implement the idea of our software. Our engineering team is async and spread across the globe where it came as a game changer and enhanced our collaboration and shipping fast.The best part is the flexibility with which it comes. Our best use-case was with the flowchart editor and wireframing capabilities it has. To all the async teams, it has my highest recommendation.

Cons

The learning curve initially was high at least when you involved product teams but I guess my engineering team has been super happy with this.

Software Ideas Modeler Review

Reviewed a year ago
Pros

The UI is user-friendly and easy to navigate. It simplifies the visualization and design of software architectures. Powerful capabilities enable it to complete even difficult jobs with ease. I was quite pleased with how simple and easy it was to use. Its feature set is incredibly comprehensive, and you can perform pretty much anything you can imagine using it. We particularly made advantage of the ability to build ER diagrams, which made it simple to represent a database with more than 50 entities. The collaborative features that are already provided (such track changes) are a plus.

Cons

At first, it might be tough to understand the features and templates as a beginner.

A complete workbench for database and use case diagrams

Reviewed a year ago

We used SIM to build the ER diagram for the databases supporting a couple of our web applications. It allowed us to produce clear, visually neat diagrams that are easy to communicate to collaborators.

Pros

The set of features it offers is particularly complete, and you will be able to do basically everything you might think of. We especially used the ER diagram drawing feature and we were easily able to model a database with >50 entities. The included collaboration tools (e.g. track changes) are a good plus.

Cons

The learning curve is somehow steep - while you can do basic models quickly, it will take some time to build and arrange complex models. Though I wonder how much easier to uwsecould a tool like that be made.

Great but overpowered for one-person business

Reviewed a year ago

I like using the software. I got used to its user interface. I use a small subset of its diagramming capabilities (mostly high-level UML schemas to describe project content: ex. database content for a joint project with other photographers). It works very well. Export capabilities for pdf files could be improved. People I collaborated with would have bought it if it would have been available on their Mac.

Pros

Richness of diagrams, graphic editing capabilities.

Cons

Export capabilities to produce reports or pdf files

Enabler of generating and containing code in/from models

Reviewed 2 years ago

Purely for theoretical usage. Most teachers I work with don't like to talk about programming but more about modelling. As a result most code written is inconsistent with the models as is my experience after almost 50 years of software development

Pros

I use it to store programming code inside the models. With the correct templates standardization can be achieved and code can be generated consistent with the actual UML models. I use it for generating Arduino sketches from UML diagrams.

Cons

The templates can be a bit difficult to understand how to use it.

The Software Ideas Modeler : A Fantastic Tool For Modeling Softwares, Uml Diagramming And More.

Reviewed 6 years ago

Ever since i started using this software it has ease my work in so many aspects, it saves me time, cost and makes everything moving smoothly for me, i really recommend this software to any software developer or IT professional.

Pros

The software ideas modeler is a great software that does so many things, out of which include, modeling softwares, Diagramming uml, flow charts, entire relationship diagrams, venn diagrams and many other cool functionalities, the part i use and what i like most is when i want to build a relationship for my database work, this tool makes it extremely easy for me as i can use the entity relationship...

Cons

The only problem with this tool is that most of the functions are not easily visible to someone who just starts using it,it's somehow complex and the learning curve of this software is steep based on my analysis, it took me quite a bit to get use to the software. it will really be appreciated if they can make things easier for users.
