  • Pros

    Inexpensive. Supports real-time collaboration. Offers Web and desktop apps.

  • Cons

    Limited template selection. Canceling or changing an account requires an email to the company.

  • Bottom Line

    If you need to create professional diagrams on a budget, Creately is a good alternative to Visio, but only if it has the templates you need.

Creating diagrams that look professional can be extremely stressful and time-consuming unless you have a dedicated flowchart and diagramming app. Microsoft Visio may be the best-known diagramming app, but it's expensive. Creately is fine alternative that costs less but still delivers on the promise of making diagram creation simple. It's available as a cloud app and desktop app for Windows, macOS, and Linux. Because it offers real-time collaboration, multiple people can work on the same diagram at once. It doesn't have the richest library of templates, but it does have an attractively low sticker price. While Creately is a fine choice for a diagramming app, it isn't as impressive as Lucidchart or SmartDraw, the PCMag Editors' Choices in this category.

Pricing and Plans

Creately is available as a desktop app and a Web app. The desktop app, called Desktop Personal, costs $75 for individuals and is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux machines. There's another option called Desktop for Teams, which is priced by the number of licenses you purchase. For example, a pack of five licenses costs $349, and a 10-license pack costs $649.

There are also two pricing options for the online app: Personal and Team Plans. The Personal online plan costs $5 per month or $49 per year. With these plans, you can make as many diagrams and projects as you want, share your projects with up to 5 reviewers, collaborate on diagrams with up to 5 people, and get priority support via email. There is also a free option, called Public, but it's not realistic to think you can use it for anything much more than trying out the service. The restrictions are too tight for anything more. For example, all diagrams you make with the Public account are (you guessed it) publicly available to anyone who goes looking for them. With the free account, you also cannot import or export any of the file types most people need, such as Visio, SVG, or XML.

The online Team Plans start at $25 per month or $249 per year for 5 users, which is a reasonable low fee. Access for a group of 10 users costs $45 per month or $449 per year, and there are other price points for other license packages. With the Team Plans, you can make as many diagrams and projects as you want, and you get unlimited sharing and collaboration support as well. Download r kelly songs mp3.

One inconvenient aspect of Creately is that to change or cancel your account, you need to email the company. There's no one-touch button in the settings or elsewhere to end your membership.

Editors' Choice SmartDraw also offers a Web app, called SmartDraw Cloud, and a desktop app, SmartDraw for Windows. SmartDraw doesn't offer a locally installed Mac app, while Creately does. SmartDraw is one of the most expensive diagramming apps. SmartDraw Cloud costs $179.40 annually. The Windows app comes in three tiers: $297 for Standard, $397 for Business, and $2,995 (starting price) for Enterprise. See my review for more details.

SmartDraw's prices are on the high end compared with the competition—except for Microsoft Visio. SmartDraw for Windows Standard is on par with Visio, when you purchase it on a disc ($299.99).

Lucidchart, the other Editors' Choice, costs $5.95 per month or $59.40 annually for a Basic single user account that includes 100MB of storage. A Pro account, which increases the storage to 1GB, costs $9.95 per month or $107.40 annually. Lucidchart is only available online, however. There is no locally installed option.

Another online-only diagramming app, called Gliffy costs $47.40 per year for a single user Standard account and $59.88 annually per user for a Business Team account. Those prices are pretty close to Creately's.

If locally installed software is what you're after, you might also consider Omnigraffle ($99.95), which is only available for macOS. If you need a totally free solution, Draw.io is the app to try.

Creately in Action

To sign up for a Creately account, you can enter an email address and create a username and password, or you can authenticate via Facebook, Google, or Twitter.

The interface is clear. On the left is a rail with a list for projects (folders), and in the center are your Creately files. You can view the available files either in a list view or with a thumbnail image. You can search, sort, and filter the files to find the one you need. Creately lets you add tags to files, giving you yet another way to find what you're looking for.

When you start a new document, Creately doesn't give you a list of available templates up front. Rather, it asks you to type a few letters into a search box describing the type of diagram you plan to draw, such as a flowchart. I don't like searching for a template without knowing my options, however. It's tricky to use, especially if you have a different vocabulary than Creately. For example, if I search for 'genealogy,' I won't find anything, because Creately only has templates tagged as 'family tree.' You can see these options if you click on a down-arrow icon on the right side of the search box. Even then, you have to scroll through a list in a small window, rather than simply seeing all your options on the full screen.

The template categories include a wide range of options, such as mind maps, organizational charts, Venn diagrams, work-breakdown structures, and storyboards, as well as technical diagrams (network diagrams, Cisco network diagrams, Android and iOS mockups, logic gates, and so on). There are also some major omissions, however, such as floor plans and emergency evacuation diagrams. Lucidchart and SmartDraw both cover those categories and many more, with SmartDraw offering the deepest selection.

When you choose a category, you see more options for specific templates, as well as an option to start a blank diagram. The blank diagram is templated, in the sense that the objects in your toolbar reflect the category.

Once you select and open a file in the diagramming editor, you see a toolbar at the top and a collapsible right rail, which has options for sharing and collaborating. You and your collaborators can add notes and comments to a file, as well as tags and a description.

It's easy enough to choose objects, move them around the page, and edit them. The site is responsive and functional, though not super speedy. To connect options with lines and arrows, you use a tiny toolbar that appears whenever you click on an object. Depending on the object, sometimes there are quick-action tools for adding not only a new object, but also its relationship (as indicated by a line or an arrow) to the selected object.

In some ways, these quick-action options are similar to SmartDraw's intuitive object selection options. Let's say you have an org chart showing an editor-in-chief, and you want to add a managing editor below. In SmartDraw, there will be options to add not only a new person to the org chart, but decide whether that person should be added via a right, left, up, or down arrow. In Creately, you have an option to add a new element from the selected object, via a pop-up toolbar, but you don't get as many choices.

Other quick action choices appear in similar pop-up toolbars depending on the context of your work. For example, when you select multiple objects on the page, the toolbar offers options for aligning and spacing. Type text into an object, and that object is automatically resized to neatly fit your text. It's simple and straightforward.

Supported File Types

As mentioned non-paying Creately members can't do much importing or exporting. You need a paid account for that. With a paid account, you can import Visio and SVG files, as well as files saved in Creately's own CDML format. You can also export to JPEG, PDF, PNG, SVG, XML, and CDML.

Creately covers the basics, but Lucidchart offers much more support for importing and exporting. Lucidchart exports to PDF, PNG, PNG with transparent background, JPEG, SVG, SVG with transparent background, and—perhaps most important of all—Visio (VDX). Not even SmartDraw offers export to one of Visio's formats. Lucidchart can also import an impressive array, supporting AWS Architecture, Gliffy, Omnigraffle, and Visio files.

Collaboration and Integration

Many diagramming apps now support collaboration, some better than others. Creately is on the better end, letting multiple people work on the same file at the same time. When you use real-time, synchronous collaboration in Creately, the app handily highlights objects whenever someone else selects them and moves them. It's also quite helpful that Creately lets you grant collaborators reviewer status, in addition to the option to make them editors. Being able to separate read and write privileges lets you easily get feedback on diagrams from people who have a stake in the project but whom you don't want mucking up your work.

Lucidchart, however, has the best collaboration support I've seen in a diagramming app. It works much the same way as it does in Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides. When more than one person has a file open, everyone can see who is in the document and what changes they make as they work because their cursor movements are color-coded to their names in a sidebar. Collaborators also have a chat box to discuss issues live, as well as commenting tools for asynchronous communication.

SmartDraw, on the other hand, is a strong diagramming app overall, but its support for collaboration is weak. You cannot use it collaborate synchronously in real time, though you can share a file (as long as you save it to a cloud storage space) so that others can work on it in their own time. If one person tries to open and work on the file while someone else is in it, that first person will see a message saying, essentially, that the file is locked. So, while collaborating is possible in SmartDraw, the functionality is definitely behind the curve.

Visio offers some collaboration options, too, but as with SmartDraw, you first have to make sure you've saved your file to the right place, which in the case of Visio means either a SharePoint or OneDrive space. Still, Visio does at least allow for synchronous collaboration among multiple people. Visio also lets two people work on the same object at once. For example, one person can change the color of an object while another person changes the text inside it.

Real-Time Collaboration, Low Cost

Creately costs a lot less than other diagramming apps, and it includes true real-time collaboration. The selection of templates isn't as rich or deep as in other diagramming apps, however. That matters, because it's often the templates that do the bulk of the work in creating the diagrams you need. All other things being equal, the right app for you is the one that has the templates you need. If Creately has what you need, it can be a very good tool, at a reasonable price.

If you can afford to spend more, however, try Editors' Choice service Lucidchart, for its ease of use, real-time collaboration, and strong template collection. Fellow winner SmartDraw is equally easy to use and has the most impressive selection of templates and objects—at a correspondingly higher price. If your budget for productivity apps is tight, the free online-only app Draw.io is also worth trying.

Creately

Bottom Line: If you need to create professional diagrams on a budget, Creately is a good alternative to Visio, but only if it has the templates you need.
