Find out in this report how the two Mind Mapping Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is being able to export to Microsoft Project."
"The most valuable feature is that it is integrated with other tools in the Microsoft Office suite, as well as at the backend with products like SharePoint and Microsoft Teams."
"The solution is easy to scale."
"A good designation feature."
"Architecture modeling software with satisfactory standard features. It's also stable and effective in facilitating communication with others."
"Putting details into the process flow and being able to link other objects into the diagrams are very helpful features."
"The valuable feature about Visio is it has all the basic tools for creating processes."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to draw models quickly."
"I think the best part of Visio is that you can import drawings very well into Microsoft Word. For example, if you put the Visio drawing into Word, you can double click on it and it opens in Visio. It is a very useful feature and something which I miss switching to Enterprise Architect. In Enterprise Architect, if I import a drawing into Word it does not open the diagram in Enterprise Architect. This is one of the strongest features and the ability to create your own stencils."
"Since I have been using such an old version, most of the improvements have already been made, but I would suggest moving forward with the times and creating a cloud-based solution for universal access."
"Integration with other software would be an area of improvement, so that it's not just used to document but also as a center plane for information sharing."
"System architecture could be improved."
"There are too many features."
"I think that it feels a bit outside with respect to the icons that are available."
"Extremely large complex drawings need to be saved on the cloud for access."
"I would like to be able to present diagrams in multiple ways, such as a Swimlane diagram."
"One thing that I always felt was missing was the ability to integrate with other Microsoft products, particularly with things like SharePoint or other Excel Office tools. It may be available, but it is not as good as it could be."
"The improvement I want to see in Visio is being able to edit it more quickly, particularly when pulling it out of another software and then editing it on that non-Visio software. Currently, the process affects the overall performance because it's not as quick as I want it to be."
