    The product is great for creating and managing UML models, it has the necessary diagrams for the requirements gathering, analysis and validation phase of software development process. It also has database modeling with export options, which is a great feature.

    Pros:
    The product is easy to install, learn to use, manage. It has a very friendly user interface and is portable to different operating systems.

    I hope that in the future the product will have more options for exports to other programming languages, such as PHP and Python.

    Reasons for choosing Astah UML

    Cost and ease of installation, deployment and training.

    Vendor Response

    Thank you for your review, Vinicius! Code generations in more languages are available via free plug-ins. There's one to export PHP and M+ plugin enables you to export to Python! https://astah.net/product-plugins/php-export/ https://sites.google.com/view/m-plus-plugin/home

    Pros:
    I like the way he manages to lay out the diagrams.
    Cons:
    The insertion of information in diagrams will be rigid, having to resort many times to the settings bar for insertion.

    Reasons for switching to Astah UML

    Although the use of the tool can be used for "free", Astah manages to bring better ways of working with projects, where it organizes diagrams better and manages to bring a more interesting look, despite being less intuitive than its competitor.

    Flexible Yet Robust

    This software has been valuable in helping me understand how coding accomplishes design. With Astah, as a student, I moved from writing hacky code that seldom met all requirements to having a structured approach with a strong modeling tool. Great for planning testing too!

    思考に集中しやすいツール

    UMLの各機能については、開発者じゃ無いこともあり、折角の機能を私が使いこなせていないと感じています。マインドマップは先代から使っていますが、相変わらず使いやすいです。

    Pros:
    レイアウトの整理・美化といった重要度の低いポイントを気にせずに、本来の思考表現に集中できる操作性の高さと割り切り。
    Cons:
    作画ツールという面では、UMLから外れたことを表現する際の表現力はあまり期待できない。これは私の利用目的・方法が邪道なだけですが。

    Cons:
    プロジェクトのマージはできるが、プロジェクトの比較ができない点。複数人でそれぞれに開発をすすめるような場合には、プロジェクトの比較ができるprofessionalの購入を検討することも考えられる。
