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. ----- ### "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. ----- ### "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 **Cons**: The website feels outdated and hard to navigate.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. ----- ### "Simple yet powerful" — 5.0/5 > **Shreyash** | *23 August 2025* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simple, effective and has all most of the basics narrowed down. It is able to handle the basics decently well > > **Cons**: It is a little too simple for what it can do. There are other alternatives that are better with doing all the simple stuff like connections. Sometimes moving an item derails all arrows > > Decently intuitive and simple app to use. It has all shapes you would need to create system designs and flow shafts pretty easily ----- ### "Diagramming is wonderful to do in Draw.io" — 5.0/5 > **Bernie** | *24 April 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: oFree oOpen source oDark Mode oCan import Visio diagrams oMany templates to choose from oCustomizable oLocal \& Online versions > > **Cons**: oCannot dock layers panel oMissing some features of other paid software oCan be a bit finicky in some areas > > My overall experience with Draw.io has been wonderful. It is free and open-source and is quite powerful compared to its paid counterparts. I used to use LucidChart for my diagramming and it was not the most fun to use and did not have a local installation version. The price was also expensive for my needs. Draw.io has many of the similar features of LucidChart such as templates and connecting lines. It is also much more customizable in the user interface as well. It supports importing Microsoft Visio files too if you want to switch. The only thing that is annoying is the “Layers” panel cannot be docked to a sidebar which means you have to open it every time you open a file and resize it which becomes annoying. Draw.io also doesn’t have some of the features as other paid software but considering it is free, I am not too upset. I have enjoyed my experience with it overall. ----- Page: 1 / 32\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/166985/draw-io?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/166985/draw-io) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | ko | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
