Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Cacoo for Marketing process flow charts, mind mapping, and decision trees.

Pros

Flow charts with standard icons or custom visuals
Conceptual visualizations for presentations.
Drag and drop Gantt charts
Org charts
Wireframes for web development

Cons

Keyboard only functionality is just ok. There are some shortcuts but momentum can be killed if I have to constantly go back to a mouse
Import/export support for Visio
Import/export support for Omnigraffle and Sketch

Likelihood to Recommend

Particularly helpful to an organization that has Windows people who are staunch Visio users and Mac people who are die-hard Omnigraffle or Sketch users.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Cacoo for mapping, diagrams, whiteboarding online, organizational charts and similar visual support options. Many of our creative team prefer it to other similar options in the market.

Pros

Creative resource for various visual support items
The free version is robust and nice to staff who have not used it before to get to know the product
Support has been helpful when needed

Cons

The paid version is more than other products in the market for some needs.
Some on our team noticed that some of the templates and stencils disappeared in an upgrade last year ( but has not impacted me).
It's one of many in the market and our agency doesn't mandate the use of any one platform (including this).

Likelihood to Recommend

It's a great alternative to taking photos of whiteboards to save for later reference, you can just create them here. It's also the best option I've found for creating workflows and organization charts, especially complex ones. If you have just a simple workflow or chart, it's probably too robust or complicated for those needs. Save it for the trickier or messier ones!
