About

An online whiteboard for teams to collaborate. Ideate, share, discover. Build and riff on ideas together. Communicate more ideas with sticky notes. Dot vote, stamp, emote, draw, or chat to react with soul. Use markers, shapes, and connecters to organize your thoughts and show how they work together. Document journeys and systems with out-of-the box shapes and connectors that snap to the grid. Easy to learn and intuitive to use, FigJam keeps you and your team flowing and jamming. FigJam and Figma live side-by-side, so all design work, from ideation to execution, can be found in one place. And, teammates can leverage design libraries in FigJam to create artifacts that are consistent and on-brand. Emote with quick expressions without cluttering your FigJam workspace. Use stamps to vote for ideas, share the love, or note where follow-up is needed. Cursor chat gives you a quick way to share thoughts when jamming live. Use default library assets or your own components to customize your work.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Integration into Figma ecosystem is great: possibility to use Figma designs and components. You can leverage Figma community for templates and plugins. Also it's possible to invite unlimited free editors for 24h sessions! Surprisingly, it's cheaper than other whiteboarding tools.
  • FigJam is a great way to stay in touch and communicate with co-workers across the country and world.

Cons

  • No real downside about this tool... The only limitation is that it's sometimes viewed as a "designer tool" whereas it's great for non-designers too : you can draw org charts for HR, accounts plan for sales, workflows for engineers & Software architects.
  • Little difficult to understand, not as smooth running as I had hoped.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Lucid makes building mind maps and systems charts easy and you can get things looking decent with a little elbow grease.
  • * Many technical templates built in * Integration with BambooHR org chart * Additional integrations / ability to easily import from outside sources
  • Browser based UI easy to operate from any device. Multiple templates in free version making it possible to complete what you need. Easy sharing making collaboration smooth.
  • You can customize and make your own graphics from scratch, but what I really liked about Lucidchart is the amount of default templates they had to work with, and the wide range of subject/themes for them. So much professionally software is very heavily designed around a corporate office environment. It's nice to see some educational related templates in there!
  • It's cloud-based and very easy to use. You can get started with your diagram right away. The virtual tour in the beginning is helpful. There are hundreds of templates to choose from, which really saves you time. The automatic alignment of lines and arrows is really helpful. Collaboration is easy. You can also easily create and save custom shapes and designs and use them in future works. My favorite part is the export with transparent background option.

Cons

  • It's not the best on design side as far as choice of colors, fonts and custom shapes.
  • * Expensive * Renewal was a mess * Admin portal was buggy for awhile
  • Plotting is sometimes clumsy. Should have offline working and sync later on.
  • If you had the know how, you can definitely make charts and graphics much nicer than this in other programs, so this is very much designed for someone who only needs the basics for whatever they're doing. It can also be cumbersome at times when editing one of their templates.
  • The same automatic alignment of lines and arrows has caused me trouble when working with smaller shapes, as it gets difficult to get it to point where you want. The user interface is not that intuitive either.
