Wondershare EdrawMax Reviews & Product Details

I use Wondershare EdrawMax to create floorplans and design layouts for retail stores, showrooms, and residential clients. The ability to build a library of customized icons combined with the many varients makes this program supreme. I appreciate the robust software system and the detailed and accurate tools. The tutorials make it easy to keep up with new tools and AI opportunities. The times that I have needed to contact customer service they were helpful, efficient, and worked with me to make sure the issue was resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found that some of my older floorplans (5+ years old) do not always open effectively with the newer updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used eDraw for several years. I am a home remodeler and primarily use the "floor plan" feature. It's quite easy to use but there are some very frustrating things that I'll describe in the other box. Maybe if there was just a version for floor plans. I hardly use any of the other features.

I wish there was a 3D feature in floor plans so I could turn my floor plans into nice visuals for my clients. I do not like that when you add text to a floor plan (perhaps a measurement) you create the text box and when you click away, the text gets bigger. So every single time I have to reduce the text size. I wish there was a measuring tool to do things like measure the distance between objects. Yes, I can use the dimensioning tool, but it places the measurement at the end which is typically covered up by an object. I'd like to see more updated objects.

EdrawMax is intuitive to use. It's very easy to get up and running using the App. I really like the pre-made templates that can be used for a myriad of different things from business templates and IT & Engineering to Marketing and UI/UX. The flexibility that the App allows the user is in my opinion unmatched. I use the App both for both business and personal use and is my go to App when building quick images/diagrams (I also have Adobe Illustrator but this is way easier and quicker to use). The flexibility it offers to export to a variety of different file types makes for easy workflow integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With it offering so much there could one feels that it offers everything. There are some things, pre-built images etc. that one would think would be readily available but they are not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Wondershare EdrawMax for school and in practice for my future profession, so for the most part I use this to make Genograms. I love that there are tons of premade templates and symbols to choose from, it has made it less of a brain killer to put together. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that some of the symbols are difficult to maneuver at times, the touch can be a bit finicky. There also is a lot going on all at once so at first it feels overwhelming, but this is something a user can get used to once they navigate the application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I purchased lifetime versions of EdrawMax, EdrawMind and PDF Element from Wondershare. EdrawMax is a great multi-purpose software from developing Mindmaps, to roadmaps for strategy to process workflows etc. While there are sometimes hiccups with some minor things (especially when a new version is installed) the technical support team is excellent and usually resolves issues VERY fast. My last interaction was with Nora, and again, she was very helpful and managed to sort the issue in two interaction. This is what I REALLY appreciate about their programs (I'm also very fond about PDF Elements!) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Templates are always a question of preference/taste. So, for professional purposes, to find a decent template, you have to scroll quite a bit, which is time-consuming. Maybe there should be a category "of professional templates", with subcategories like "roadmap", "Process flow", and " mindmap", so it is easier to identify a suitable template rapidly. But that is just a minor inconvenience and the usefulness of the programme as well as the excellent technical support outweigh this inconvenience by far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having switched from Microsoft's version to EdrawMax, I was very pleased with the simplicity and versatility of EdrawMax. It is a tool that is frequently used in our nonprofit organization for everything from network drawings to flow charts to mindmapping. And it is far cheaper than the Microsoft alternative.

Adding in additional drawing icons could be easier and a better array of icons would make this a far better product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's easier to create schematic drawings as it offers a wide range of icons and shapes that can be used to represent a legend in the drawing. The ease of use and the variety of design elements make it a great tool and make the drawing much more appealing to be presented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some icons and shapes are not updated and feel just stuck. There is a lack of modern technology icons, which can make it harder to represent newer concepts, for example, related to cybersecurity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Yes. It could create PnID documents more easily compared to drawing software that requires drawing every symbol of the instrument and equipment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- An error may occur when opening an Edraw document from its very old version; some connecting lines, equipment, and text may be displaced from their original position.

- The AI is not quite good. Even when we test a long and detailed prompt, the result is not appropriate and may need adjustment in 80% of its work.

- I got a double invoice for one product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of connecting shapes, its flexibility to make, for example, complex organizational charts and of course, the diversity of templates and drawings to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Even shapes can be aesthetically enhanced, for example with design themes or more curved and customizable lines. While the drawing bar is useful, it's a bit tedious at times, but it's useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The availability of a rich library of symbols for every type of activity. In my use I find the automatic management of links between objects and the possibility of creating links between pages very convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is inconvenient to modify the formats of objects by editing the properties and to find the alignment and operational commands for drawing in the menus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
