License: Freemium (Paid plan starts at $15/month, offers 30 days free trial) However, the pricing plans are quite affordable, and if you’re ever looking for a Visio alternative (not just for Mac), do check Cacoo out. There are powerful collaboration features, ability to import/export in different formats, and an installable “Cacoo ninja” that makes using this tool even better than it is already.Ĭacoo also operates under the freemium model, with the free version being more limited than what Lucidchart offers. Cacoo offers a rather cartoonish interface when compared to the likes of Lucidchart and some others, but don’t let that fool you – in all the web-based graphing tools that I have experimented with, Cacoo has the largest selection of templates for all imaginable categories, supplemented by an additional collection in the Cacoo store. Consider this as Lucidchart on steroids, with the downside that the average user might not need as many options as this tool has on offer. License: Freemium (Paid plan starts at $8.95/month for single user, offers free trial)Īvailability: Dia Diagramming Editor ( OS X)Ĭacoo is an extremely powerful web-based diagramming and graphing tool, and it packs a mean punch. This online tool packs a really powerful punch, is cost effective, can be used across a variety of platforms (including mobile devices and tablets), and totally deserves the first place in our list beyond question. Lucidchart works on the freemium model, with a free, limited version being able to cater to most of an average user’s needs, while pricier paid versions can cater to business and high-end users. Also, when you’re done working on a project, you can export it in a number of formats, including Visio-c0mpatible VDX files.
In itself, Lucidchart allows you to either begin with a blank canvas, or select from many available templates to quickly get you off the ground. The online tool also supports importing Visio files (alongside the likes of Gliffy and Omnigraffe), ensuring that if you favour two different platforms, you still have cross compatibility. Lucidchart packs a really powerful feature set, being enough to meet needs of both amateurs and professionals alike.
Lucidchart is one of the most favoured choices not just for Mac systems, but pretty much any platform, since this capable diagramming tool is web-based and can be used wherever you are.
