Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Great platform to use to create flowcharts. I love that you can also share the drawing with others so they can contribute to the drawing. You can also access it with just your email instead of having to save it on your computer desktop.
  • - It's free and only requires a google account to use. - Scribble brushes automatically smoothens out your scribbles. - Easy to import images and draw over them. - The text tool is also pretty customizable. - In fact, you can write or draw on any pictures, draw your own lines, or choose from the options of simple figures to draw. - Everything is stored real-time in the cloud. - Easy to create diagrams and charts.

Cons

  • I haven't had any problems yet, but I am still new to the software.
  • - No premade templates to use. - The diagrammatic options are pretty limited, since you have to create your own shapes for flowcharts and data flow diagrams.
