I have used StarUML in one of my previous organization, its easy to use and very light weight compare to other tool like Enterprise Architect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I user StarUML long time back that time it has limited modeling options, its a kind of basic modeling tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
StarUML is a fundamental application within our technological stack, since it allows us to model the software that we are going to build in an agile and concise way. It has a multitude of diagram types and uses the UML 2.x standard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Perhaps there are payment applications that are somewhat more attractive visually, but we prefer the simplicity of StarUML, in addition to not causing license fees to the company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

outdated UI, sometimes I wish UML team should hire another UI/UX guy who can design a better UI for a famous app like this Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Writing a code to create a diagram is a need for creating a complex diagrams,in my opinion and Star UML is the best way to do it. you create a class in your diagram by writing a simple line of code like this:
expression ::= [ '<<' stereotype `>>` ] ClassName
then you can add attributes to it as simple as this:
attribute ::= [ '<<' stereotype `>>` ] name [':' type ] [ '[' multiplicity ']' ] [ '=' defaut-value ]
and you can add relations between class by the following line :
expression ::= [ '<<' stereotype `>>` ] [ visibility ] name
that is all .
you can create the most complex diagrams by learning just those 3 simple definitions,so the learning curve of StarUML is very short. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In the main page of the starUML it is hard to find the main feature of starUML which is ability to code the diagrams.It can be more magnified.
In the page of documents there is no link to the page.some Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a very useful tool to make many diagrams. What I like most about the tool is that it is very intuitive and easy to use, it is not being an expert to be able to make any diagram that you propose. It has a very complete tool panel that facilitates the making of the diagrams. It is also free software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Although it is a very complete tool for making diagrams, it has some drawbacks such as for example that is not compatible with export of diagrams in SVG format. It does not have a Linux version, it only has a Linux version, so it's another great handicap. Also, you do not have the possibility to reverse engineer for PHP.
