What do you like best about Gliffy?

Very simple and easy to use diagram tool. You can easy create flow charts and diagrams for stuff without experience using the tool. Generally it is pretty intuitive and within a few minutes, you'll be creating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gliffy?

The user interface could be better - when you first login, you jump right into a canvas versus starting at a dashboard. It would be really nice to have a desktop version that could be installed and used - I don't always love using the web interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gliffy solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helps with the visualization of processes or the hierarchy of a complicated system. The ability to see a process laid out, step by step, is incredibly beneficial and Gliffy allows you to quick and easily create these visualizations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Gliffy?

I like the fact that the user interface is not cluttered. Everything is easy to find and it's very simple to start creating a diagram. There are many ways to also customise everything to suit your needs (i.e arrow shapes, size, type etc) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gliffy?

I initially disliked how to arrow function was very fiddly but then realised I was not using the correct type. It takes a bit getting used to but eventually got there. The editing property icons are not self explanatory so you have to fiddle around a little bit to find things you want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gliffy solving and how is that benefiting you?

A simple way to create diagrams and be able to export it so that it can be linked or applied externally in documentation. It also keeps track of various versions which is important as sometimes we need to access some older versions to restore it or for historical purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No option to export selected areas directly as PNG or JPEG. Also, there is no setting to have few colors selected as a group to re-use. I would love to have brand colors and fonts set to re-use whenever I am creating new charts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
