Table of Contents

What is Cacoo?

Cacoo is an online diagram and collaboration tool for businesses to create sitemaps, flowcharts, mind maps, wireframes, mockups, and more. By utilizing and customizing a wide range of in-built templates, or building from scratch, users can create diagrams individually or as a team for brainstorming, workflow management, and project planning.

Using Cacoo’s multi-user workspace, teams of employees can collaborate in real time with features including synchronous editing, version tracking and feedback commenting. Multiple versions of diagrams can be saved by team members in order to retain and track a history of changes, and comments can be added directly to diagrams for actionable feedback or recommendations.

In order to assist users with diagram creation, Cacoo offers a wide range of templates and shapes for a variety of purposes including business process flowcharts, iOS wireframes, brainstorm mind maps, timeline Gantt charts, sales funnels, sitemaps, floor plans, and more. Once created, diagrams can be shared with teammates, management, or clients by sending an entire folder or individual diagram in either read-only or editable format. Diagrams can also be shared via social media, email, or links, and can be exported or embedded into web pages.

Benefits of using Cacoo

Integrate with various apps including Google Drive for storage and sharing, Visio for file upload, Atlassian Confluence to insert diagrams into wiki pages, and more.

Collaborate in real-time with team members thanks to synchronous editing, commenting, revision history, and versioning.

Keep team assets organized with shared project folders saved directly in Cacoo so that all team members can create, edit, and share diagrams online.

Track when a diagram was last edited, and save diagram versions to compare changes over time with a complete revision history.

Export diagrams with SVG, PDF, PowerPoint, and PostScript file exporting options, and share on social media, via email, or by embedding into a website.

Pros

Intuitive interface with useful templates. Cost is great - free for universities.

Elizabeth L.

Research Manager

Very good, I use it for my team meeting, brainstorming session. I find it very helpful transferring thought processes to diagrams or swim lane charts.

Charles Y.

Digital Marketing Executive

I've used Cacoo for years and I love it's simplicity and diversity. I can always find a chart or a diagram to help me solve problems we faced.

Aaron W.

Sr. Web Developer

Cons

The line tool sucks, it is not intuitive to use.

D'Mitri S.

Business Analyst

Nothing that I can think of. But my usage is limited.

Verified reviewer

Anonymity request

Some features may need a more tweaking, e.g. it's very difficult to move cells up and down, and also it's a lot of efforts trying to select and move an element inside a group.
