Cool tool for ER and Cloud Architecture Diagrams

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Creately from other similar products?

I've used Creately extensively to create ER diagrams, flow charts, and cloud architecture diagrams. When it comes to differentiating Creately from other similar products the following points attracted me towards it. The comprehensive collection of shapes and icons, makes diagramming easy. The User Interface which is intuitive and doesn't need a big learning curve. The search option is fast and useful to quickly search for templates or shapes that we want and include them.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The export option provides options to export diagrams to .JPG, .PNG or .PDF formats. Mostly I export to .JPG and include them in my powerpoint presentations. This tool also has the option to import custom images in case we want to use logos and other images of our choice.

What do you dislike most about this product?

When I was working on ER diagrams, I couldn't quite link exact columns between tables. The crowfoot arrows would link just above or below columns. The web tool used to crash sometimes, so saving more often was key to preserving changes.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

This tool is great for anyone wanting to create quick, eye pleasing diagrams and charts. The advantage of the cloud version is, it makes it easier to access and utilize them, irrespective of where we are or when we want to. It helps me to create my diagrams with minimal effort due to the ease of use.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity

What differentiates Creately from other similar products?

Creately provides users with multiple unique features. The flowcharts and diagrams features differentiates this product similar to others because its very cost efficient which allowed me to finish my work without any issue.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect of this product is the functionality and the features which Creately provides at a very low cost. There are other products which provide similar features but cost way more than its worth. Creately is affordable and well worth the cost. It is also very easy to use and is very user friendly.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Time functionality. Some of the features take too long to process, for example, whilst creating a flow diagram the diagram gets a little buggy and lags at times which slows down the whole process. In addition, the dragging and dropping is also a little buggy at times.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would say this app allows people to increase work proficiency at a low cost. Allows people to keep their data organized and also allows you to create visual representation in a clear manner.

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Enables Productivity
  • Efficient Service
  • Caring
