Lucid has been a pleasure to work with, they incorporate the latest features and are constantly improving the product. They also provide excellent support with great resources and excellent training for the products.

Pros

I like the ease of building flows and drawings. All the tools are readily available and visible and intuitive to work. I especially love the templates and the breadth of areas they cover.

Cons

It takes users a little bit of time to become proficient with the interface as most are coming from tools like Power Point and are not used to moving the canvas along with moving objects. Once this is overcome the tool is a breeze to use.

Generally really good product with useful tools for a wide range of IT professionals, including Business Analysts, Project Managers and Developers. However, it's user experience can be made frustrating when trying to do some simple diagram tasks.

Pros

Easy tool for creating process flows and creative images for a variety of business needs including system architecture and business policies.

Cons

The use of lucid as a planning tool isn't great. It's gantt charts are fiddly, and I found it easier to use other tools rather than lucid. Moreover, often when trying to connect and make a chart lines look uniform it can be difficult to quickly do.
