I used it to draw diagrams and flow charts for presentations, and save them in cloud storage. It works very well as the missing piece to the Google Docs suite.

You can download an offline version of diagrams.net (formerly draw.io) from its GitHub page, making it a viable replacement for Microsoft Visio. Of course, if you're on the go, it will also work online and integrate perfectly with Google Drive and other cloud storage.

It used to be online-only, and the offline version is an Electron app (meaning it uses a lot of RAM for what it does).

In my opinion this system is formidable, it does not require the user to download any program or plugins. Another thing that makes it exceptional and more than one user able to edit the same diagram at the same time, with real-time update, this leaves much of its competitors outdated. Draw.io is a free program that offers a range of tools, which not all of its paid contributors have, besides the ease and intuitiveness it provides.

Creator of high quality online diagram, which dispenses with any kind of program installation or plugins. Great integration with other file management platforms (google drive / dropbox / one drive / github) Extensive image database to assemble and model network diagrams, uses case, database, wireframe and better has content to assemble basic pages for websites.

Awesome system, but it can still do some things. His system of groups sometimes leaves something to be desired. And the text formatting system has some issues to use too.

overall a good experience, easy to pickup. Customer service response however is poor. Takes a long time to get back. Had a few incidents of lost maps, customer service took 4-6 weeks to respond, and at times didn't even respond

Easy to use, Easy to search. Ability to have collaboration between users. Workflow enabled to have process approved

Hard to maintain from an enterprise perspective. To an extent hard in create a standard within an organization, Hard to Audit and update versions Lost maps on occasion

I used it in my first-ever job and picked it up within 20 minutes of logging in. It's super simple and straightforward to us

I don't think draw.io has commenting features yet. There are much more sophisticated tools out there today but for 2016, using this tool was considered super cool!

Draw.io is my go-to for diagramming business processes in my role as a Business Analyst. It's very useful to present a diagram rather than explain the concepts that I can easily convert to a visual in draw.io.

-I use Draw.IO weekly/monthly depending on as projects demand -Diagrams are easy to make, and the visuals are very appealing to my target audience -Various methods for saving and displaying or sharing the content -The free functionality will suit the vast majority of users and teams -Google Drive integration

-A desktop application might be nice for certain users or teams -The built-in diagrams are nice and often used, but there is a fairly limited selection for templates -A few of the print options default to printing with gridlines with no option to remove them

With draw.io I am able to quickly whip up a simple diagram with no hassle. I can easily work on them away form the office if the need arises. I like using it.

I like most about draw.io how easy it is to use. The user interface makes everything about it super simple to use. I think they did a good job to focus on making it nice to use. It is so easy, there isn't really a learning curve. Anybody can just start dragging and dropping to create a nice looking diagram. Save options are great as well. The ability to save your work on the cloud is a great feature.

The only thing I do not like about it is the lack of autosave. It is not a big deal, but it seems like a lot of online browser softwares are moving towards autosave functionality.

easy to draw architecture diagramseasy to share through girhub or google drive

nothing so far. This is a simple and powerful tool.

We don't use it a ton, but it comes in handy when we need it. It's simple to whip up a rack or network diagram, a mind-map, or a quick infographic to demonstrate a concept.

It's simple to use, quick to pull up, and most importantly for us it integrates well with Google Drive. It also has a useful rack diagram option that does a good job of snapping to Us as appropriate.

Manual save is a little weird for a modern app, and most of the rack diagram options are manufacturer specific (I'd rather just put in a generic "switch" than look at a bunch of Cisco and other brand-name switches to see which one looks most like my gear).

Convenient and effective way to draw flow diagrams with draw.io

Main positive point is it has both Windows application and also the web application which makes things sync.

It's a bit slow in the web application compared to the Windows application and it makes the user experience a bit laggy.

I have had a good experience using draw.io, and I have been able to create quite a lot of flowcharts for business processes at my organization using draw.io.

I liked the ease at which I was able to create different type of flowcharts using draw.io.

The software's capability to upload different types of files is still very limited, and it could work on their capability on the same.

I used it for about two years. It worked perfectly and was easy to use. Nevertheless, it looked stale. There wasn't any new development. Therefore, it is pretty good as a cheap alternative for drawing many kinds of schemas.

The free version of this web application allowed you to create any kind of scheme. I personally use it for drawing software architecture diagrams and it worked very well.

It wasn´t easy to share documents or team collaboration. There weren´t many updates on it. That´s why I recently changed it for Lucidcharts.

It allows me to attach drawings to projects in my custom built app.

Great for quick sketches to be attached to a project. Basic, but fast to use and easily integrates with other software.

Perhaps too basic, but it's good for simple tasks. It works well for little landscape sketches and things of this nature.

I've used this in the past, and use it occasionally. Free is great. It does lack some more advanced functionality and ease of use.

It's free and easy to start. It saves to Google Drive so your data is on your own system.

It doesn't have advanced functionality like some newer systems.

As a medical device researcher, I use diagrams.net in a variety of capacities, including brainstorming and sketching out new concepts, prototyping designs, collaborating with my team, and presenting my research. The platform's simple interface, wide range of drawing tools, real-time collaboration features, and support for exporting to various formats make it a valuable tool for my work.

These include limited customization options, a lack of advanced features, and limited integrations with other tools. While I find diagrams.net to be a useful tool for my work, these limitations may make it difficult for me to personalize the platform to suit my preferences, work on certain types of projects, or integrate it into my existing workflow.

Portable - Do you want to use it in browser? You can do it. Do you want to do it offline, well, you can do it. The compatibility difference between the browser version and the stand alone version is very minimal and the lag is almost not noticeable on an enterprise level network. It has all the required tools to create a design that is industry level. Although it doesn't have all the cross platform compatibility of Visio, it does what it does in a very minimal footprint without the hefty price tag that visio carries. It is small, fast and effective. And almost no learning curve, if you have used visio at least once in your life to create a presentation.

Not many cons for a day to day design of a minimally interactive presentation. Less powerful than the alternatives in terms of plugins or cross platform compatibility. Visual bugs on the browser version on certain slow or restricted(VPN?) networks.

Draw.io is quick and easy. I do not need to remember any credentials. It just stores the files in my cloud storage and I can pull it out any time. I love using this.

I am not sure how secure it is when it accesses one's cloud storage accounts, otherwise, there is nothing negative about using Draw.io

While I was attending some online courses, I learned about this tool. I am amazed that it is free because I had to pay for other apps that weren't so versatile and easy to use. I am working to promote this tool for my current job because it's easy to use, flexible, and platform-independent. And the incredible thing is that is free!

The app is web-based, so you don't have to worry about compatibility issues with your computer. You can save your files on your computer or allows you to keep it on multiple cloud platforms like Google Drive, Dropbox, Onedrive, which is very cool! I recently discovered the app for Windows 10, which gives me more freedom to work offline while I am traveling. The tool allows you to create your templates so you can create different types of drawings. It's free!

I can honestly find any fault with this tool. Perhaps since I only draw basic stuff like UML or flow charts, the app provides anything I need to do my work effortlessly. Even the problem that I could work online was solved several months ago with the Windows 10 app. It would be great to have the app available for my MacBook.

With draw.io I can easily develop diagrams in a short time, my experience with this software has been quite good, it has been integrated with other technologies such as Google Drive, it is excellent for collaborative projects, it has a great performance and it helps me. Do not spend so much time developing the design of the diagrams, and thinking more about the information and the workflow that will follow.

This is one of my favorites for many reasons, a very nice interface, intuitive and clean, it allows me to create all kinds of diagrams from 0, real time recording, with a great personalization, besides that it is only drag and drop so I can modify everything I want freely, besides all this also allows me to export and import files directly from popular cloud platforms such as dropbox, google drive, trello, etc. It supports a variety of formats, it also has a very wide variety of predefined shapes.

It is a very useful tool, however, it is for a basic or intermediate use, when very elaborate diagrams are needed, it is a bit short in the amount of tools and customization, however it is still a great tool.

draw.io is a web application that allowed me to create different types of diagrams, such as flowcharts, organizational diagrams, network diagrams, etc.

draw.io provides a wide variety of shapes, symbols, and connectors to create different types of diagrams. It offers a comprehensive library of elements that can be customized to fit specific diagramming needs.

draw.io is primarily a web-based application, which means it requires an internet connection to access and use. While there is an option to install draw.io as a desktop application, it still relies on an internet connection for certain features like cloud storage integration and collaboration.

I was using this platform when I was in university and it was very helpful for me to do my lost of work in very short period of time. Even now, the software company I'm currently working, they use this application. We mainly use this tool to draw UML diagrams, sequence diagrams, business diagrams, layouts etc. So far this tool was very helpful.

it is easy to use because nothing to install externally; it has drag & drop functionality; they have given very helpful training materials but in my case I never used those because they have given an intuitive interface so it was very easy for me to grab most of the functionalities in short period of time and get my works done. In this platform, they have give lots of temples. You can draw, Businesses diagrams, Engineering diagrams, Flowcharts, Software diagrams, Network diagrams, Layouts for designing web pages, UML diagrams and much more. And also they have given very rich functionalities like import and export your diagram in various formats, track and restore you changes if you have done changes offline, automatic layout, can publish and share(on google drive, one-drive) your work, can work on mobile and desktop devices etc. And the best thing is, in order to use any of those above mentioned functionalities you don't need to pay at all, in fact you don't even need to register with this platform. And you can use your diagrams for any purpose, including commercially. That's awesome right!

I don't see any major disadvantages in this platform but I suggest if they could improve their customer support bit more, that'll be great.

My overall experience with diagrams.net has been great, I did many of my college works and projects through this software. In this pricing range, a good tool to collaborate on and deliver amazing outcomes. It is simple to incorporate in the cloud and may be shared as a Google document or updated within the shared file.

The thing that I liked the most about diagrams.net is as follows, - Data access is very easy and provides flexibility for users and project collaborations with teams is easier since the data can be accessed through cloud platforms- Suitable and preferred diagrams is easier to search as they have easy diagram searching feature- Data backup and recovery is very easy- It is easily integrated with different other apps and tools so it makes user's work easier

The thing that I liked least about diagrams.net is as follows,- There are few shapes available, and the UI appears to be difficult to navigate sometimes for beginners- If the internet quality is not so good, then the downloaded file might not open properly or gets low quality - If you do not save and/or download your draft before turning off your device, it is very likely that it will be lost

My experience with this webapp has been excellent, I have not had any problems and use it almost daily, for uml diagrams and mockups.

This webapp is wonderful, it does not need download, it loads very fast, it allows me to export and import content directly to my drive in the cloud, as well as to my computer or device, it also allows the use of different formats and includes a great variety of maps, diagrams and many templates, quite customizable, is a highly recommended tool for daily use, since it can be used from any device at any time online and offline.

The least I like is that the interface is a bit full of many things, has many menus, and is somewhat complex when handling very small structures, it is easy to get lost among so many menus and options, it is easy to use but something more difficult to mastering.

I am regular user of draw.io since last 3 years. I am very satisfied with this software for making wireframe and database design. It would be more better if some changes are update and improve. draw.io makes easier to design wireframe. I highly recommend draw.io

draw.io is one of the best software for wireframe design and database design. It makes easier to every developer. Apart from this other attractive side of draw.io is listed below: - It is Simple, Fast and Free - Free templates for database design and wireframe - Can save any kind of file (jpg, png and XML file) - Well manage content (user friendly)

It would have been better if listed below drawbacks are updated: - Little bit difficult to customize size - Some time it makes slide change on size after file is save on JPG or png file - It would be more better if there is option to choose external photo or other file

As I previously mentioned, drawio was used to get my ideas down. This can be a diagram to explain current business process or a flow chart as part of a Powerpoint presenttation. I use drawio to get the idea down and paste it into email or another application. I hightly recommend this for people when they need to get their ideas shown visually.

I like it that it is very easy to setup and use. To set it up, to to their website, sign in with your google account and start using it. I signed in with my Google account so I can store the drawings on my google drive. Draw.io is also very easy to use. I previously used Visio so this is similar in concept.

There not much to not like about this app. It was free and does what I needed. I already started recommending this to my friends.
