## Reviews

### "Diagramming that just works" — 5.0/5

> **Richard** | *27 October 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's fast to load, easy to work with, takes minutes to learn and provides excellent value for money for us. Plenty of shapes are provided via the template library, from room layouts to process mapping.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing really - it does everything we need it to do and more\! Hard to see a con in this tool to be honest.
> 
> We use it extensively during project / task planning, whether that's making decisions on Azure infrastructure or traditional flowcharts.

### "Draw.io - a simple-to-use and high-quality flowchart designer" — 5.0/5

> **Antony** | *17 December 2024* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Simple to use flowchart maker with visually-pleasing results
> 
> **Cons**: Could potentially have more options for visuals - but this is a minor point

-----

### "Draw.io made flow chat easily accessible" — 5.0/5

> **Joshua** | *6 July 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy of use and ability to pick up where you stop.&#10;One of the most amazing things is that you can export as a PDF for presentation purposes for free.
> 
> **Cons**: One of the limitations of draw.io is the lack of accessible to a mobile app.

-----

### "Diagramming Tool for Network Projects" — 4.0/5

> **Hein Htet** | *10 April 2025* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Open Source Software, Rich Template and Shape Library , Offline access
> 
> **Cons**: Auto-layout and snapping features can be finicky, especially with complex diagrams.
> 
> It's a powerful and flexible tool for creating network diagrams, technical visuals. I appreciate that it's free to use, integrates well with Google Drive, and offers a wide variety of stencils for network architecture, cloud environments, and system designs.

### "Basic Diagramming Tool, But Lacks Modern Appeal" — 3.0/5

> **Parveen Kaur** | *1 November 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Draw.io offers some solid templates for beginners, making it a decent choice for simple diagramming. It’s functional and straightforward for users new to diagram tools.
> 
> **Cons**: The website feels outdated and hard to navigate. Templates lack visual appeal, and the AI for creating diagrams doesn’t work as smoothly as expected. Additionally, having to save the file to your PC before starting can be inconvenient, especially if you decide to switch templates mid-way.
> 
> Overall, while draw.io provides useful templates for beginners, it doesn’t match the features or ease of newer platforms. Saving files before editing can feel tedious, and the interface isn’t as intuitive as other tools. This tool is functional, but I would recommend other options for a smoother experience.
