swimlanes.io Pros and Cons

A very good online tool for creating sequence diagrams. Nice to see the diagrams as you build it. It works very similar to PlantUML Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not easy to integrate with Confluence and GitHub. I understand that future realeases will be making this process easier Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Seems to be getting sequence diagrams done easily and fast without extra hassle or complicated system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not sure yet, haven't used for a very long time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

swimlanes.io is an easy-to-use tool to create sequence diagrams by providing text-based instructions. Instructions can be provided by the simple flow syntax which are instantly reflected in the diagram. We can download created charts as image or PDF file. Diagrams are easy to share with others using the URL and accessibility can be set as public or password-protected to increase security. The great part is that, as of this writing, the tool is free to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool should include a few most used templates so that we don't need to write the flow instructions manually every time. As of now, there is nothing that I don't like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Was user friendly and easy to use without any hickups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Should have been working on the Interface a little more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use swimlanes.io almost weekly to create flowcharts for my business. They're incredibly useful for creating the troubleshooting guides I need for my on-site IT techs. It's super simple to create and then share them as images or urls depending on my need at the moment. I highly recommend! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I feel is missing is an easy way to beautify the design - maybe some easy to integrate stylish templates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
