Lucidspark

Gut für Ideenfindung und Whitboarddarstellung

Vorteile:

Die Software ist einfach und intuitiv zu bedienen, man kann gute Echtzeitdaten teilen und damit perfekt im Team arbeiten

Nachteile:

Das Berechtigungsmanagent ist etwas schwierig, teils muss die Freigabe mehrfach auf verschiedene Weise erfolgen.

Great product with Jira and Microsoft Integrations

Kommentare: This is a great product from visual design and can improve visualization of the product backlog while having automation of the Jira Integration that will save product leaders time in administrative work.

Vorteile:

The Jira integration helps my team see the product backlog while the integration prevents a product leader from doing redundant work by having to add cards in two sets of software.

Nachteile:

The one opportunity for this software is the navigation in the vertical and horizontal axis. There is a tab on the left hand side that lets the user switch between the functionality of grabbing an object and scrolling in the diagram. This can be frustrating for first time users. My recommendation to Lucid is to make the navigation more like Lucidchart by combining that functionality.

Great for Catching Sparks (Ideas), But Not the Tool to Fuel a Bonfire. (Entire Project)

Kommentare: In my opinion, the pros, and cons are pretty evenly balanced, making Lucidspark a no-go for me. At least it would have been for me had I been evaluating integration for the whole company. Fortunately, all I did was collect and tally votes, including my own "Maybe," in the engineering team opinion poll after trialing the product. While I occasionally still use Lucidspark, other programs remain my go-to.

Vorteile:

The virtual whiteboard, idea collection and organization, and remote-first approach are among Lucidspark's top attributes.

Nachteile:

Onboarding/learning to use the software effectively and efficiently was a bit of a challenge, and without prior Lucidchart experience might be a dealbreaker.

Interesting alternative to Microsoft Visio

Kommentare: Good

Vorteile:

Easy of use, web based and usable from anywhere ,The content to work with is new and drag and drop is king.

Nachteile:

Seems to have limited shapes in comparision to technology vendors , if I compare it to Visio then you could download packs but it was slow and cumbersome, If Lucid could broaden templates and shapes for architecture that would be great.

Must have for all Solopreneurs!

Kommentare: I love the ease of use! I have previously featured Lucidspark as part of a 'Best Platforms' series I did on LinkedIn and I would add it a hundred times over :)

Vorteile:

I am an operations consultant so I spend a lot of time thinking about, creating and documenting efficient processes for my clients. Lucidspark makes it possible to clearly map out the customer journey and contextualize their systems design. If a picture is worth a thousand word, a Lucidspark flowchart is worth two thousand! There is no better way to demonstrate how you can bring value to the most important stakeholders for your business- your amazing customers!

Nachteile:

When you are on the free trial, you can only retain/update 3 documents at a time.

Excellent tool to go for across the other options

Vorteile:

Team collaboration in Lucidspark makes is extremely seamless. This tool is a must for enterprises and teams who would need collaboration across other members. The ability of the tool to operate through browser makes it very easy and intuitive to learn for the new team members. Lucidspark also comes with many pre-defined templates making the job easier for people who would work on multiple style of documents. Its ability to sync with Jira is also an important feature that I would recommend this tool for. All the teams who work on Jira can leverage Lucidspark to link their artefacts into the Jira issues/tasks, making the management of documents agile and simple.

Nachteile:

The design styling of the objects and auto-alignment features can be improved. Also, the presentation feature can be integrated with meeting notes in order to capture the ongoing workshop notes.

Developing a process flow seamlessly

Vorteile:

The ease of use. There are variety of features to choose from. Legend and Symbol come with a mini display for its uses and function. And pieces by pieces were connected even if the component or the element that we input might not seem to feel right, the outcome of the whole process flow being put together makes the work look tidy and clean. Extremely satisfied but still not to the budget im hunting for.

Nachteile:

the price. I guess the price can be more of on a competitive range

Excellent software for diagramming

Kommentare: This software has help me prepared diagrams and relations that I would not have had the ability to create with other products.

Vorteile:

I have created a few diagrams and presentations with this software. They were very well received and look very professional. It's much easier to use than Visio. I appreciate the wide variety of templates. I purchased this software on my own dime because it's so helpful for me.

Nachteile:

I have no complaints. The software has been very helpful.

LucidSpark is a must have for Remote work

Kommentare: Love it, great addition to the other tools we use and really great team product.

Vorteile:

I love the collaborative aspect of the tool, being able to follow others and all work simultaneously on one sheet and not have to save and wait to see updates others have made, it's a game changer, also lots of extra functionality that makes it incredibly useful for presentations...etc.

Nachteile:

I think it's a bit tricky to learn how to use to start, there is SO much functionality it can be a bit overwhelming, I also think it can get a bit silly on the chats and team messaging stuff.

Overall, a good experience with the tools and functionalities of Lucid Spark

Kommentare: A good experience in the past few months as we use to track the project status.

Vorteile:

The ease of Development and the main reason that we use this is as part of our development is to track the project status.

Nachteile:

We can improve the functions which we use to create a workflow and all, and can also include more icons to make a better UI

Lucidspark JIRA integration makes software project planning/management feel sane

Kommentare: I've been able to communicate project statuses and blockers way more easily than before.

Vorteile:

It's the JIRA integration. It provides interactive JIRA cards you can place on a diagram that automatically update when JIRA updates are made like card status changes. Also, you can update the card status right from the diagram card too!

Nachteile:

I think I would like to see a few more shapes/widgets for technical diagramming. Because there are other features about Lucidspark that make it way more attractive for technical project diagramming as opposed to Lucidchart.

A great tool with great templatees

Kommentare: Very smooth and helpful.

Vorteile:

Lucidspark is a great tool to use because of its great templates and its convenient, easy to use interface. The templates featured give a lot of detail and help a lot with knowing how to start your own projects. This especially makes it a great tool to use for brainstorming sessions.

Nachteile:

It's a little difficult to share your project with coworkers outside lucid. Some more editable options for exporting would be nice.

Good software to express your ideas with schematics

Kommentare: I started to use it for wireframes, but then I started to use it for flow charts and other schemes

Vorteile:

Really intuitive and fairly full of features. It helps me from mind maps to website wireframes

Nachteile:

Not really, it does what it has to do in an easy way

Lucidspark Review

Kommentare: Overall I think Lucidspark is a really solid tool with minor drawbacks and it's really good for brainstorming.

Vorteile:

Lucidspark is really good for whiteboarding and is really easy to use interface. For real time collaboration I think lucidspark is powerful too.

Nachteile:

Limited free tier version. And for some features we need to learn and dig deep to understand them properly.

Lucidspark - a window between worlds.

Vorteile:

Lucidspark is easy for everyone to pick up, the best part about it is that I can have people in design sessions that and they can pick it up within 3 minutes. Its easy to use implement and get different departments together and give some visibility on projects.

Nachteile:

I wish is had just a few more tools that are in offered in Lucidchart but that is why we have both I guess.

Great Visual Aid Tool To Use In Your Business

Kommentare: As a Business & Marketing Coach it is crucial that I have strategic plans and steps for clients to go through and complete so they can reach their goals. Lucidspark helps me achieve this as well as helps me to continue to develop programs, webinars, courses and more for future revenue sources. I began using Lucidspark because I was introduced through Lucid Mindmapping (I was a paid subscriber to this). When they created their Lucidspark software they introduced to their audience. I was immediately taken in by it and loved it. Their post-it boards are customizable from templates to colors and more. I began using it even more than their mindmapping tool. This became my visual aid go to tool.

Vorteile:

I love how easy it is to use. You can jump right in and begin without needing training.

Nachteile:

The one con would probably be cost, although fair it not affordable for many micro businesses.

Lucid spark is very easy to use and install

Kommentare: The only one I have tried and is suitable for my self employed business and clients to keep track of my projected progress

Vorteile:

The easily assessable usage for data makes my job very easy with lucidspark

Nachteile:

My company is about 65 percent adaptable with this product and is still very useful

Huge Upgrade from Viso

Kommentare: Creating illustrations is a nearly daily part of our job and the ability to outline clear projections for our projects is foundational to our client experience and Lucid Charts allows us to convey that information clearly while also being very intuitive on the backend. Truly a win-win.

Vorteile:

I haven't had to use Lucid Charts for long to know it was an upgrade from the Visio software we were using. Visio was clunky and difficult to move around and Lucid Charts is much more smooth and easier to work with. With Visio I had to save individual files and send them to coworkers for projects, but with Lucid Charts we are able to work simultaneously and know that we are working on the most up to date files.

Nachteile:

I don't think I have been able to use the software long enough to determine if there are any elements I would change. I would love the ability to group charts into one file, but I imagine that is a solution that already exists and I simply have yet to learn.

Great piece of software.

Vorteile:

The software is easy to get up and running in, in no time. The software has a pretty deep selection of recognized icons for Cisco and other pieces of hardware. Easy export to several different formats.

Nachteile:

Kind of old school, I like a local install. If for whatever reason my internet was down, I wouldn't be able to work on my items, unless I had exported to Visio.

Great tool, especially for remote work and collaboration

Kommentare: The overall experience has been great.

Vorteile:

I like that is extremely easy to dive in and start using right away. It is very simple to find quick wins and 100s of ways to use the product. It's been a great tool for our team

Nachteile:

I don't have anything that is a deterrent for this product. It works well and is easy to use. I do notice that when I use it for client calls, we have others that seem to "look" better but that's not a make it or break it.

See your ideas come to life

Kommentare: Exciting, inspiring, and such fun to use.

Vorteile:

So easy to get started without any training. Very intuitive and the templates make it possible to produce something very professional looking and useful in a short space of time. Loved seeing my ideas come to life in colour and being able to share them with my coach immediately for feedback. Fab piece of software - love it!

Nachteile:

Too early to say. Didn't like the arrows between the bubbles at first but then got the hang of that.

Simply the best flowcharting and wireframing tool

Vorteile:

It's very easy to build flowcharts and process flows with this browser-based tool. I use it mostly for creating marketing automation workflows.

Nachteile:

The color coding process could be a bit clunky. Once you get the hang of it you're fine.

Best Whiteboard Solution

Vorteile:

Lucidspark is easily the best whiteboarding solution out there. I regularly use the software to pump out and organize a mess of sticky notes, conduct brainstorming sessions, map out customer journeys, or collaborate strategically with a team on next quarter's goals.

Nachteile:

There isn't currently anything I dislike about this software.

Lucidchart makes engineers lives easier

Kommentare: Lucidchart removes needless busywork from the process of getting a diagram done and delivered to the business in a visually appealing manner.

Vorteile:

It isn't Visio. It's refined, it's usable, and it's friendly.

Nachteile:

Likely lack of user knowledge, but I feel as though the ability to align objects and connectors in a logical manner could be improved.

Great software to fill in the visual gap

Vorteile:

Easy intuitive UI, great features. Really has added an edge to client proposals

Nachteile:

Takes a couple of uses to get used to, there are a few idiosyncrasies to familiarize yourself with
