Overall Satisfaction with Lucidchart

Just works fine, you can draw every diagram that you need.
For us it helps to draw architectural diagrams (sequence, use-cases etc.) for different services and ERDs for databases.

Pros

  • ERD import for MS SQL server database works quickly and easily, you just run a query in your DB, save results as *.csv file, then import file and drag needed tables to Lucidchart editor.

Cons

  • For ERD import it would be great to have "select all" and/or "select multiple" (CTRL + mouse click) selection options when you choose which tables relations to draw. Because if you have a DB with 20+ tables and you want just draw ERD for the whole DB, it takes some time to drag all the tables one by one.
  • It saves onboarding time for newcomers.
Never had trouble, which needs to contact support, it is even better than quick help from support. :)
