Lucidspark Reviews

Very easy to use, collaboration with others is easy - love the fact that it shows where participants cursors are.

More pre-configured shapes would be great.

I liked how I can use the different types of equipment in order to draw, type, and color the way I wished. I spent quite a time finding somewhere I can create great, impressive projects with everything I need to complete it. One of the other things I really enjoyed was that I can increase and decrease the zoom on the project, it helped me make the details as well as the overall picture look great at the end.

Starting from scratch has always been the most creative way to handle my projects. However, I was surprised to see that there were templates to create projects out of. The templates were great. But, there were only a limited amount. If, in the future, there could be a more diverse amount of templates.

the abilty to use the objects drag and drop feature and to be able to add text or edit as needed, made it possible to create a flow chart that was balanced for technical and non technial users.

To be honest, at this time, I would not change anything about the platform, it provided me with everything I needed and it did not require tutorials or the time that other platforms require to even get started.

Being able to do flow charts quickly and easily with the templates

User Experience as it relates to finding options on shapes and menus isn't very easy

It's simple to understand and easy enough to navigate.
I like that it tries to be a whiteboard first, and not a design tool.

Not quite as advanced as Mural or Miro.
Missing some facilitation features.

Very simplistic to use and create charts that are visually appealing.

Took some time to figure out where features were and how to manipulate different parts

Very easy to use, has really good features and my outputs adapt well to different export formats

Pricing can be a little better to improve value for money, however, the cost is still not too bad considering the ease of use and features

Easy to use, has so many additional functions, the templates are great

Additional templates would be cool to see, workflow capacities, integrations to other apps

The ability to sort cards automatically is something that was unique and useful.

There really wasn't anything I disliked - great tool.

I just started using it to have a place to document my understandings about a project I'm just starting to work with. I think it's very easy to understand, has all of the nice things I like about Lucidchart and I briefly tried to find ways to make it work during my Scrum meetings.

I could have not really grasped the price structure but at a high level it looked pretty expensive to me. I have a personal membership for Lucidchart that I use for my professional work and I don't mind paying for it. But from what I understood, Lucidspark would be far too expensive for me to get considering the size of my teams. Additionally I was not able to find any option within the tool that I could use to test the tool with a small crew or an option to use it with my whole team although with limited functionality.

Easy to use. Integration with Salesforce. Ability to share diagrams. Cloud storage. Ability to copy paste diagrams to office 365 as pictures

It is really hard to say. I think Integration with MS Teams

The ease of use for the software makes any project a relaxing, focused use of time rather than struggling to organize everything well in advance.

The options for templates seem a little limited right now.

This software is amazing for aggregating information and ideas and cataloging them in a meaningful way. I love how you can connect similar ideas and information to see connections and relationships. This has been very useful for capturing the wisdom and experience of retiring employees so it can be conveyed to personnel coming up through the ranks. Being able to catalog their different responsibilities and connect them together allows us to present a holistic view of the program so that new employees can get up to speed faster. I also love how this software is browser based so that it can be used anywhere on any device. This frees up staff from having to be in the office or worrying if they have a company computer.

I would like to see a feature where you can attach documents to different sparks. It would be helpful to enrich different ideas and sticky notes with supporting documents.

Lucidspark is very user friendly. This manner in which the drag and drop and layout makes this product ideal for people from novice to experienced users of collaboration software. There is no steep learning curve.

The only issue I found was no in regards to the software. More to do with the password reset option. Some clients I have presented this to stated this feature could be improved.

You can use it to develop data flow diagrams very easy and is more likely to drag and drop. Also you can share easily enough your projects files and in the long run saves a lot of time for updating the current state of your development.

If you are in a big group you will need more space to work and way more files to successfully get a big scope along all your files and definitions. So if you are in a small group I would say that free version is fine otherwise buy a license because you will need one but is not as expensive as other platforms.

board space, space is very convenient and you can write big text
colors
ease of use

Flexibility
inserting of pictures, text
Mathematical equation

I like how easy it is to make graphs with Lucidspark.

Sometimes with very large drawings, loading times can take a while. Make sure you have a good pc and internet if you want to collaborate live.

My whole team can get in and work on the boards to add to the "conversation." Love the templates as well.

Managing users was not very intuitive. I had to do an FAQ search to figure it out.

I like the collaboration and the customization

Always being able to see someones mouse at the same time

LucidSpark is a flexible tool, for those who are looking to replicate the versatility of a whiteboard in a virtual environment. It's easy to use and there are plenty of different choices of shapes, sticky notes, etc.

It can be a bit clunky at times, for example is not as simple as Miro.

Great product! Love the ease of use. I would highly recommend!

Nothing. Everything works well! I wouldn’t change a thing.

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!

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

The fact that it is so quick and easy to use. That it is user-friendly enough with features such as snapping to shapes and arrows staying attached to the shapes is helpful.
Quickly saving out as PDFs and sharing with colleagues and clients is brilliant.
There are enough templates to find what I was looking for.
It's quicker than setting something up with Illustrator or MS word, powerpoint etc.
1Gb storage is helpful.

Because I've only scratched the surface with its use, I haven't had the opportunity to really push it's functionality enough to comment on this area yet. I would probably say theft that it's browser based because it would be great to have it as an app on my computer. I'm not often likely to use other computers and having yet another browser window open is a bit of a pain.

The UX/UI design features along with with the web design process flow templates and beta testing flowcharts served my business well. It cut down design times, and gave my team a solid foundation to design and develop our implementation strategies!

An image library would be a great addition to the software.

Easy to collaborate with co-workers in a remote setting.

Would like to see ability to add images or icons similar to lucid-chart. Also more base templates.
