Edraw Flowchart Software 4.7

EDraw Flowchart is a program intended for people who want to create a schematic representation of a process. It helps you organize and visualize any kind of data including work flow information, network transmission, computer software and so on. Aided by this program you can create presentations, flowcharts or diagrams.

Some samples are provided by the publisher. You can use these samples as templates, to learn how to use the program. Each object from the flowchart has a color scheme and an associated style (color properties, shadow position, transparency, and so on). There are some nice looking predefined styles, and you can also define your own drawing style.

You can insert many types of objects: lines, text, pictures, symbols, or connectors. OLE objects are supported, meaning that you can insert virtually any kind of document inside your flowchart. Excel, Word, PDF documents can be used in your flowchart using this option.

The user interface looks good, and most importantly is very easy to use. All predefined objects are organized into categories, making it easy to find what you are looking for.

Pluses: There are some computer users, like myself, who feel that a printed document is more easy to read than the computer screen. This program allows you to print any flowchart for reference purposes.

Drawbacks / flaws:

In conclusion: All the features of EDraw Flowchat make it worth its price. Give it a try and see for yourself.
