"Excellent to make image layout"

5/5

What do you like best about OmniGraffle?

OmniGraffle is straightforward to use, and its interface can make anyone very comfortable with making insightful image collages, templates or complex image layouts. The built-in tools are intuitive and work perfectly in an Apple Mac OSX environment. Finally, there are many format options available for exporting the jobs, which enables template sharing across different software chains. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OmniGraffle?

OmniGraffle can be a bit pricey for personal use, and I recommend the developers make an affordable plan for students that do not need to use the platform very often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OmniGraffle solving and how is that benefiting you?

Everyone in my office uses Apple Mac OSX hardware, and we were looking for software that could work perfectly on this platform. Our search finished when we discovered this beautiful software called OmniGraffle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for product concept and ux work"

4.5/5

What do you like best about OmniGraffle?

I like that it's incredibly intuitive. I didn't need any training to use. It was very easy to get my idea across with simple shapes and export to share the flows. I mock up here quickly as it's useful for remote work when I used to do low-fi wires and journey mapping on a whiteboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OmniGraffle?

It's not as "pretty". It's good for UX designers but not for UI or dual designers. It's functional but not visually pleasing. App crashed like 5 times on my computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering OmniGraffle:

Yes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OmniGraffle solving and how is that benefiting you?

Creating quick wires, user flows, brainstorming quick ideas, any remote work collaboration, and build site maps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Option For Diagrams For A Mac"

5/5

What do you like best about OmniGraffle?

Easy to use for basic needs, but extremely powerful for more advanced uses. Extensive image libraries available, and easy to create your own that you can share within your team or group. Near endless formatting and styling options. Some automation capabilities, but we haven't yet found a use case for them. By far the best graphing/diagramming tool available for MacOS or iOS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OmniGraffle?

Sometimes adding lines to a graffle cause the lines to snap to other objects unintentionally. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a setting to control this behavior, but it hasn't been a big enough issue to try and find out. Other than that, nothing comes to mind that I dislike about OmniGraffle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OmniGraffle solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use OmniGraffle to diagram process flows and entity relationships. OmniGraffle allows to quickly model these, and once final designs are done, create images suitable for insertion into our documentation. The stencil library allows us to save our most used object types, and easily share them among the entire team. It's also very simple to add custom objects to a stencil library.

"Solid alternative to Visio"

4.5/5

What do you like best about OmniGraffle?

Omnigraffle has been my go-to tool of choice for many years. It is a solid tool to allow me, as an Enterprise Architect to document IT systems, Business Processes and process flows. If I was to campare with the Microsoft offering, I would say that Omnigraffle is the product that Microsoft should have created.

The best feature is clearly the way it allows multiple canvases within the one document, where one canvas can be duplicated and modified to show a different scenario, all being achieved quickly. Additionaly, if the existing stencils are not enough, the community supported repository of stencils are accessable directly from the software. It truely a joy to find and load new stencils with a single click. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OmniGraffle?

Mac only, but really this is not a big issue for me. If it was available on Windows, the uptake of the product would be garanteed. Beyond that, the only other issue is that some Visio files import with strange artifacts, but can easily reeditied to resolve the problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering OmniGraffle:

Omnigraffle is the tool that makes Visio users jealous. I certainly recommend it for all those Mac users out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is OmniGraffle solving and how is that benefiting you?

In my day to day activities, I need a tool that allows me to capture and document the processes of the clients I work for, Omnigraffle is a tool that easily solves the problem, has the ability to store files in native Omnigraffle format and to export them into Microsoft Visio file format, if I need to share an editable version.
