About

Astah Professional is an all-in-one modeling tool for software and system design, developed by Change Vision, Inc. It supports UML 2.x, ER diagrams, data flow diagrams (DFD), flowcharts, requirement diagrams, CRUD, and mind maps in a single tool. Unlike drawing tools, Astah creates models: a change to a model element is reflected in every diagram that uses it, so your diagrams stay consistent. AI features include AI Chat Copilot and AI-assisted code reverse engineering, which use your own API key for OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, or an OpenAI-compatible service. A local MCP server lets external AI agents work with your Astah models. Conventional reverse engineering of Java, C#, and C++ code is also included. Astah Professional is a desktop application for Windows, macOS, and Linux, with a bundled Java runtime, so no separate Java installation is required. A 20-day free trial is available. Latest version: 12.0 (released July 15, 2026).

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Nothing - software download wasn't working for days. Had contacted customer support, finally got it installed only to find out it is not compatible with OSX 10.15. Fails to launch. Emailed customer support to see if the system requirements are for Big Sur or not.
  • Short learning curve and easy to understand steps. Great practical starter templates and the ability to create your own.
  • I own an IT services company and need to create network maps and floorplans for our network installs documentation. I had been using another product (initials SD) for many years, but it was getting dated, and not always the easiest to use. This year I discovered MyDraw and found it to be a superior product in every aspect for my needs. The learning curve is pretty quick, but the power and flexibility is almost unlimited. Creating and modifying network diagrams was much faster, and it's also very easy to import your own artwork or photos to really customize the equipment. My clients have commented how professional our network documentation packages are, and MyDraw helps us create the visuals quickly and cost-effectively. One of the HUGE features that MyDraw offers, which I will be using on a regular basis, is the floor plan library. If I had to add one major feature to that other app, this would have been it! Super helpful for my usage.
  • Superior Customization. Easy User face. Variety of Templates.
  • This offline solution have plenty of templates to start with, clean user interface, plenty of design options and fantastic set of libraries with design elements. Import and export works perfectly. Just to explain, for example, a line tool options You need 30 minutes or more.

Cons

  • Won't run on OSX 10.15. Have to modify the launch settings ini file in the resource directory to disable Mac fonts. It feels like ported and patch-job here.
  • I don't see anything negative about MyDraw. Please keep improving it as you go forward.
  • Being that this is primarily a business app, I was surprised to not find any type of basic business rooms in the floor plan library. The other major omission in the floor plan area is basic architectural objects, e.g. doors, windows, electric outlets, data and phone ports. I am basically having to create these myself, which makes this a little more time-consuming until I build up my own library of those types of shapes.
  • A lot to take in right away. Almost overwhelming if you don't go step by step.
  • User interface is an excellent one, but gear icon, for more option, is really unnecessary. Loading time should be shorter.
