## ConceptDraw DIAGRAM Reviews
  ### 1. ConceptDraw Office helps MyNew Technologies

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Myrin N. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 04, 2018

**What do you like best about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

ConceptDraw has been an excellent suite of tools used for preparing our customers with brilliant solutions to IT projects over the years from MyNew Technologies’ first inception of Concept Draw Office 2, in 2012 as we have sought the best tool to use in a pure MacOS environment. With its current version of ConceptDraw Office 5, we are able to continue providing high quality project management layouts and IT systems drawings for our customers.



**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

Currently we do not have any dislikes for this suite. 

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

Because we are a 100% MacOS environment, we couldn't find another compatible product which met our needs in ease of use, support and upgrade path. 

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is the perfect tool for us to draw ERD (entity relationship diagrams) for design databases for our customers, network topologies for new IT enabled sites and plan a room’s layout with equipment. We can export these drawings into HTML documents and supply them on a secure web portal.

We use ConceptDraw PROJECT for our project management software because it’s the best we’ve found on a MacOS platform to use. It’s a great tool to plan our agile methodology projects.

An awesome bundled product ConceptDraw MINDMAP (part of the suite), allows our IT analysts to think outside the box with new ideas and paradigms. Using this software, our planning team sits in a co-working conference room, while projecting MINDMAP on large display panels to visualize new concepts based on words, meanings and derivatives of them. Because of this software, it actually improves the teamwork and collaboration within team members.

  ### 2. Ease of Use + Great Graphics

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daniel R. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 08, 2020

**What do you like best about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

The variety and use case examples is unparalleled.  Plus the graphics are great.  Designed from the ground up to be cross platform.  We are a Mac shop so this feature alone is a prime driver.  Constant additions to the suite are almost overwhelming.

Ease of use - intuitive is an understatement.

**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

Licensing and upgrade policy is confusing but it has gotten better over the years.

I have used Diagram where I previously used CAD to construct processs flow diagrams.  Not all templates allow cross-over or cross-under depictions.

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

Use the on line tutorials

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Generate process flow diagrams of complex processes.  The biggest benefit is cost savings over CAD and ease of use especially when compared the Visio and CAD apps.

  ### 3. ery good and feature full application for  all sort of diagrams anc drawings

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Edo M. | Owner, Building Materials, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 27, 2019

**What do you like best about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

This is a application that is full of features and add-on templates. User interface is a standard ribbon one, as is a standard today. Some features are fantastic as Presentation maker and that is a very rare feature, not to say unique to this application. Thera are lots of adjusting options for any design object on diagram.

**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

There are few main problems with this application.
1. pricing policy is one of the strangest one I saw until now, and I0m not sure if is made in that way intentionally, I don't like it.
2. additional templates are always welcomed but to pay it once more after I paid application itself. Not to speak about prices.

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

This application look solid but price policy is a serious problem. I can't recommend it.

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Neither one, as we tried it and we decided not to use it anymore.

  ### 6. My experience while using concept draw which prompted me to write this review.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

  ### 7. Best of Breed

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mark F. | Retired, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 15, 2019

**What do you like best about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

It's stable and reliable and easy to work with

**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

There are solutions that you have to pay for

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

Try it before deciding one way or the other.

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Consider it as documentation, which it is at the start of and throughout a project.  The simple truth is you can't document what you don't understand.  And your understanding deepens as you add functionality to the diagram.

I was a project manager it IT for over 25 years and have ALWAYS found it easiest to work with a group when they're all looking at a simplified picture of a complex problem.  That simplification can be a tough job, but I've always found it to be worth the effort.

If you have a series of decision trees, you could overlook the fact that a "NO" was ignored, or that you left yourself with no way out of a loop (for all of you coders out there).

It's really useful for managing change and for root-cause analysis.  And to (again) simplify a complex process so senior management can understand what's going on and why.

**Reviewed by:** Dino  M. | Designer, Design, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2018

**What do you like best about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

Conceptdraw Diagram and Mindmap are great tool for highly flexible diagramming requirements, be it business, educational or industrial diagrams. Mindmap tool on the other hand is a great accessory to capture ideas to brainstorm, organize them into structured information and notes. Integration with MS Visio, Office and Evernote is seamless. I would like to add thse key points as pros

1. Minimal wide and yet highly functional drawing canvas.
2. A large host of ready made solutions for any business and industry diagram requirements.
3. Seamless integration with MS Visio
3. Vast library of templates, themes and graphic elements.
4. Great export features including svg and eps.

**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

1. Learning curve and over whelming set of tools and options ( pro and con in one)
2. Minor high DPI scaling on my 4k monitor. Some sections looks too tiny.

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

If you are looking for a fully featured technical, info-graphics diagram making solution for business, education and industry needs , Conceptdraw diagram is the answer. With its wide library of graphical elements and solutions presets, it is a complete suite like nothing else.

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use the tool to make great info-graphics, flow charts for presentation, taking notes. Conceptdraw diagram along with Conceptdraw Mindmap helps me with gathering, organizing and presenting ideas and information. A great tool for cognitive learning and conveying information to others.

  ### 11. Concept Draw DIAGRAM the allrounder for planning

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Thomas H. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 18, 2018

**What do you like best about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

We use CDD in our small business for 2 main areas:
1) Planning and visualizing kitchen and water filtration installation
2) Process visualization in BPMN standard

For both CCD is a very useful and easy to use programm. Since the last upgrade we do much more enjoy the working, as many bugs have been fixed to the workflow is much smoother. We consider the software as easy to learn and to use. All of our team members who came either from graphics or industrial design find it easy to jump in on working.

**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

We sill find it sometimes hard to work with the software as many of the common short keys are different or do not exist. As standard we see the normal short keys of mac and Adobe. For example zoom you wanna have at cmd+ "+" So sometimes the software feels a bit like a windows software.

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use it for visualizing interior planning and BPMN.

  ### 12. Total visual communication

great support from the Vendor

**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

It would be interesting to see even more integration options with MS Excel - it's possible to play with data in cells but I hope it will be more flexible soon.

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

great value: investment vs what You get
easy to use
many updates & improvements
excellent support from the vendor
import & export options - very important IMO (PowerPoint,Visio,SWF,PDF,images,html,SVG,...)
integration with ConceptDraw Office - data exchange with MindMap & Project - different views of same data with visual development opportunity (images & diagramming options)

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

  ### 13. Your company can express itself in the best way with this software.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Harry S. | Web and Graphic Designer, Airlines/Aviation, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 29, 2018

**What do you like best about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

From my point of view it seems to me that this is an acceptable software mainly because it has a very nice interface and draws much attention from graphic designers, on the other hand, the accessories that the ConceptDraw PRO interface has are interesting. The tools and options that this software has are good, useful and professional, making all the projects I do very formal, decent and incredible.

Another point that I like a lot about this software is the great variety of templates that has this software, in addition, templates are so beautiful that it is so difficult to choose one.

I really like that through this software we can create the slides in a very easy and fast way but the best thing about this is that the slides are very nice and give a very good impression. For the exponents of the slides (which are about the future work of the companies or other topics of interest) it is easier to speak in public because the slides are very easy to handle.

**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

At the moment that you are doing a project (of any scope or type) it is usually somewhat complicated to find the function that you need to apply to that project, that is, the tools and options are disorganized and I do not like that.

I can also add here that to be able to handle this software you need to have knowledge in the area. To me it is very easy to use this software but the beginners of the company not much, they should investigate too much about ConceptDraw PRO in order to develop it well.

Finally, it has a defect when it comes to fixing any type of graphic and that is very frustrating.

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

The first recommendation I am going to do is for the owners of ConceptDraw PRO to organize the software and be much easier to use, they should also improve the support team so that they can provide us with more information when we have any questions. Similarly should create a forum where should be all the correct and specific information about the operation of this software.

I consider this software advisable because thanks to all the projects, slides and designs that can be created with ConceptDraw PRO it would be much easier for your company to express itself.

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The benefits that the company has obtained by using this software are:

a) Projects easier to express to the public and other interested parties.

b) Graphs easier to understand.

c) Faster and easier processes.

d) More dynamic and participative clients.

e) And finally, we learn more while we use this software, especially the beginners but I admit that I have learned a lot.

  ### 14. ConceptDraw provides answers to every diagrammatic requirements

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Emmanuel M. | Teaching Assistant, Higher Education, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 13, 2018

**What do you like best about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

- ConceptDraw Diagram consist of a large number of diagrammatic applications which support modelling requirements for different context, systems and settings. It is multi-functional, comprises multiple features, supports collaboration among teams, posses import and export capabilities and integrates with a gamut of widely used software and applications. ConceptDraw Diagrams brings all diagrammatic solutions into a portfolio in a pick and install format. This provides a sense of flexibility to switch between applications without affecting the model under construction.

**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

I have used ConceptDraw Diagram for several weeks and I am yet to identify any flaws yet. 

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

Check it out. It is excellent. A free trial period will convince you.

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am a researcher exploring the use of multiple modelling standards in modelling simple to complex service systems. These include information flow, system design, life cycle costing, resource utilization, end of life activity etc. I use IDEF0 and  IDEF3 frequently.

  ### 15. Diagrams Made Simple

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brian R. | Design Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 12, 2019

**What do you like best about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

The UI is user-friendly, and you can quickly sketch up diagrams for easy use on a whim. I use it for last-minute presentation boards (diagrams are always the last thing I do, so I save it for the 11th hour), and it always comes out comprehensible for the audience.

**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

It's missing a few features, when compared to Microsoft Visio, but the basic functionality that it does have works great.

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

Compare it to Visio, and see which features really stick out to you. Because if you can get away with using ConceptDraw, I would high recommend switching over.

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Quick staff and projection reports that are easily digestible at policy meetings or presentations with heavy agendas.

  ### 16. Fantastic tool. Poweful, intuitive well-serviced by company.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Media Production | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 26, 2018

**What do you like best about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

This is a fantastic tool.  Unequivocal.    In addition to the native features Conceptdraw offers "Solutions" Some of these come pre-packaged with the program while others are available to be imported via cloud into ConceptDraw.  There is a large collection of free options and there are also reasonably priced paid Solutions.  If you have a specific project that you are working on, you can easily retrieve these from the ConceptDraw Store.  The "Store" is an app you can install with its own interface or you can use their website for purchases. The store app is also where you retrieve system updates.  I think a lot of users start with programs like Visio and ConceptDraw.  I did use Visio and a few other tools but I started using ConceptDraw after first using ConceptDraw Mindmap.  These tools can be used together and with CD Project.  ConceptDraw can be used to supplement MindMap where you want an end point with much greater detail.  In the same way it can be used for a reference point in Projects.  While you use this for planning out physical space, information modeling etc, it can also be useful with clients and presentations.  While it is difficult to replace Keynote (powerpoint) presentations, this is a great option to either supplement or in some specific cases, use as an alternative.

**What do you dislike about ConceptDraw DIAGRAM?**

I would really like to be able to import structured data such as from Numbers/Excel or even csv.  Even a text list with markup or even just text with tabs or returns.  I believe this is an area where ConceptDraw has a future and if AI could be developed with it that would make it exponentially more powerful.  For example:  using one of the existing "Solutions" importing data into such a solution using intelligent associations with structure and graphics.  Minor pet peeve is that in the Store the price is not listed on paid solutions. You have to click the "Buy" button to go to their website to see the price.

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

This is probably not an entry level product based upon price but it is certainly worth the price.  If you do this type of work then this is the type of tool that is part of the cost of doing business and if you prefer an installed solution rather than cloud (or are in some situation where cloud is not always available) then the whole ConceptDraw Office is useful and can pay for itself.

**What problems is ConceptDraw DIAGRAM solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Modeling of information, processes, physical and theoretical assets and intellectual property.  Saves time presenting things graphically and integration with Project and Mindmap adds to overall usefulness for all the apps.

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM  works very well as a drafting software in designing simple industrial products. It is user friendly and easy to handle.

**Recommendations to others considering ConceptDraw DIAGRAM:**

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is  handy  if you want to present concepts of ideas.
