"The solution is stable. It hasn't crashed, stopped or caused any issues in any way.""Visual Paradigm is super user-friendly, especially for new team members. I always have them start with it because the interface is so simple to pick up. They usually spend about six months to a year using only Visual Paradigm before moving on to other tools. We also use the cloud repository for collaborative work, but I've had some trouble with code reviewing and limitations. Sometimes, customers even request the source file or exported XML because it's easier for them to access and review.""I find it very user-friendly for my purposes, which is creating business process models that I can publish as HTML pages. It has worked flawlessly for my project, and my clients are able to utilize it as an internal web portal for their process documentation and other needs.""Stable design software with multiple functions and features. It's simple to install and easy to use.""It is easy-to-use and it helps understand its data modeling structure through the intuitive user interface.""The application is easy to use and provides informative diagrams.""The solution is the best application for data modeling. It helps to architect business processes. Its best features are pricing and functionality.""What I like best about Visual Paradigm is its simple GUI, especially since I'm a new user. In my two years of experience with this tool, I didn't find it complex because I was able to learn how to use it via YouTube videos. Visual Paradigm is enough for me. I also find the bridging feature in the tool valuable."

Cons
"The price could be more competitive.""Dragging and dropping shapes is not as user-friendly as in Visio. In Visio, it's very easy to work with shapes and in very few minutes you can plot a whole, multi swim-lane, cross-functional process.""It can be more user-friendly.""It would be helpful to be able to do more analytics and generate reports on historical documents that have already been uploaded to the server.""I would love to see a template and shapes for customer journey mapping.""The look and feel, along with the ease of use of the solution's web modeling version, is an area with certain shortcomings.""It would be nice to have a Spanish user interface available to us.""The solution could benefit from improvements to its interface. More specifically, when compared to other tools, the process modeling features lack symbols or object types that are used to represent the information or data within the process."

More iGrafx Process360 Live Platform Cons →

"For me, what needs improvement in Visual Paradigm is the limited features included in the $99 license, which is the cheapest option. If more features could be included in the cheapest licensing package, Visual Paradigm would be better, especially for businesses that have a limited budget for buying software.""Takes up a lot of resources.""It's still early for me to comment since I've only been using it for two months, but the responsiveness when diagramming needs to be improved.""Visual Paradigm could improve many aspects. The performance could be better because it can be low. When we have large and complicated models, it has a low speed and many bugs. Sometimes the solution stops and you have to restart Microsoft Windows on your PC. The larger database modeling cannot be done properly, I have to use another solution called SAP PowerDesigner.""From time to time, we experience some troubles when we work as teams.""Visual Paradigm is heavier and has more complexity than one of its competitors, e.g. Lucidchart. It could have been better if it was more simplified.""Visual Paradigm can improve by having better process mining tools and model integration.""The product's versioning capability needs improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice
