Easy images from current diagrams for use in reports and architecture documents.
Systems Architect at a aerospace/defense firm with 51-200 employees
Easy images from diagrams for reports and docs are valuable features, but I'd like to see sharing come built-in.
What is most valuable?
How has it helped my organization?
Like any reasonable Architecture Tool, it produces standard views and allows passing a file with work in it to others.
What needs improvement?
Many missing diagram formats, incomplete support for DoDAF, ToGAF and similar, sharing should come built in to the product and not be like so many other architecture tools where any time you need some it is at additional cost.
For how long have I used the solution?
2 years.
