Cacoo Pros and Cons

With Cacoo it has been better for our team to design the architecture of existing and new applications, we can collaboratively expose our ideas, we have had a better vision of what we want to develop and we have made life easier for new team members when they need to learn about our applications.

Cacoo stands out for its user-friendly interface and easy-to-use design tools, making it accessible even for those with little to no experience in creating diagrams. It supports real-time collaboration, which is perfect for teams working remotely or brainstorming together. I also appreciate the variety of templates it offers for different types of diagrams, whether you're working on flowcharts, mind maps, or network diagrams. Sharing and embedding diagrams is smooth, and integrations with other tools like Google Drive and Slack are a plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that I'm able to create custom icons and workflow elements that fit my specific needs and even save my own reusable templates.

I also love that I'm able to share view-only links with clients that still allows them to add their own comments without worrying about them "messing things up." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the new "unlimited/borderless" sheets. While it's nice to have more room to spread things out, it becomes very difficult to find your place when you come back to a diagram because there's no anchor starting point. It also makes it more difficult to export documents in a viewable format for clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cacoo has proven to be an excellent addition to my professional toolkit. Its user-friendly interface makes navigating and creating complex diagrams effortless and appealing to both beginners and seasoned users in the field of level design for software. The platform's extensive range of features, including real-time collaborative editing, and compatibility with other tools I use as a developer on my daily tasks, ensures that all diagramming needs are met precisely and efficiently. The overall quality and functionality of Cacoo, especially the high-caliber output of the diagrams, makes it a highly recommendable tool for anyone needing a reliable and effective diagramming solution.

The most notable drawback of Cacoo is the limitations imposed on the free plan. Users with basic access find themselves restricted in terms of the number of diagrams they can create and the features they can use. While this is a common practice in many SaaS platforms, it can be a downside for those who are not ready to commit to a paid plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Diagramming tools and addition of templates and addition of timer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Story map template auto prioritizing help when you drop another sticky note on top of an existing one. Need the ability to quickly re-prioritize sticky notes as we stack rank (check out MIRO's implementation) . Really helps move the discussions along quickly when the tool is able to help update drawing. Also wish Cacoo user story maps had jira integration. That'd make it easier to turn tasks or stories from the story map into backlog items. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
