Cacoo reviews

We are an agency and I like that I can set up client projects into folders and EVERYONE on our team has access to project flows, site maps, and wireframes whenever and where ever they are.

The back and forth of going between NuLabs and Cacoo when I have to add another human to the account and or administer the account. Used to now, but it is confusing for anyone coming in new.

Cacoo can be used for a wide variety of things - As a product owner, I typically use Cacoo for workflow design, user-story mapping, and architectural design/diagramming.

Our team is able to collaborate around the work within the application - and the outputs can embed straight into our Confluence pages (Atlassian software) using the Cacoo plugin.

It's incredibly easy to use and I'm able to access my work across all of my devices.

Cacoo previously had a user-driven marketplace for additional stencils, which has now been removed.

Whilst they significantly upgraded the standard libraries when they removed it - I liked to be able to browse and add additional stencils for the creative community it had.

I can make a quick diagram for my dev team. Easy to use and understand.

I wish the icons like the AWS icons displayed the name of the icon. I think it is a waste of time to have to enter AWS Cognito. Need way better mobile wireframe icons. You need to group your icons based on devices, frameworks, or operating systems.

The ease of use. It is simple and might not include all the fancy features of desktop apps like Visio and Omnigraffle but the fact that it is online and collaborative makes it perfect for sharing and collaborating across global teams.

Nothing specific comes to mind. More features are always nice but nothing specific I am missing.

Updates in real-time with collaboration features (chat, etc.). Provides local history to easily undo actions, and version control to track major changes. Basic objects are highly customizable via Inspector tab. Efficient for working by yourself or with a large group/team.

Currently unable to add new connection points to shapes. Would be helpful if compatibility with similar tools (eg. Visio) is available.

1) Easy to use
2) Make everything more efficient
3) Visualize tools, easy to understanding
4) Can be work with team

1) Not suitable for using while in slow internet connection
2) Prefer to have "Snap Tools", so that "Line" can get more accurate with others

- Multiple users can edit one diagram at the same time.
- Functionality to "play" diagrams like a presentation.
- Nice export options (pdf, png)
- easy to share with other users

In the past, Cacoo was using Flash but they've already migrated to HTML so, no Cons for me.

It is easy to use, very intuitive design

It would be fantastic if they can offer more mathematical symbols.

The variety of stencils you can use for every type of diagram

The use of tables is still weak.
Is not easy to perform all the common functions for a table like add/remove columns or rows

It has a lot of nice templates (especially for the diagrams). Mockups look clean and I have a lot of features and flexibility for using the elements and composing mockups.

Sometimes it is hard to find elements you need to use. Some of the elements for the diagrams are missing (especially when it comes to BPMN 2.0)

Cacoo allows me to organize my ideas in an easy way. It is very user friendly. The features that I like the most are the templates and the diversity of icons that I can insert in my mind-map.

Unfortunately you have to pay to print your mind map or to save it to a PDF file.

Ease of use and versality are the two main advantages. It's so quick to be mastered that it makes it the "go to" application for drawing/mapping.

I dislike the fact that you can't access the work one did during the trial period once it expires. For the rest, I dont have much cons to talk about really.

I can add my students into groups and they can collaborate with each other.

I can't create sub folder for the projects/groups. Its will be better if I can rearrange the completed projects.

It has many functions to design web pages

The cost of the program, I have no problems with buying a program, but being paid from time to time if it bothers me a little

This software is very friendly, is easy to use and it gives us a lot of alternatives to make great presentations. I do like it

I use free version, I would like that it lets print in pdf.

Ease of use, useful features for creating diagrams, layouts and mind maps

Limited exporting formats in free version.

Designing wireframe with Cacoo is very easy. Learning curve is almost 0.

Sometimes, the software lags a little but it not a big issue.

Its easy to use and learn, one can do great diagrams out of 5 mins of tutorial and tries.
Its a Software that i used in college and still use it nowadays.
Another positive thing is its 'Export' options, easy and without watermark.

The only thing i would improve is the UI as sometimes i get lost, but is not a big deal.

User friendly UI/UX
Very simple to import and export
Template

A bit of cartoon and low quality rendering/graphic
Not various icon, template and items

Easy to use, you can collaborate With other people

It is not easy Align object and i have to register again yesterday

Cacoo is easy to use and saves time making diagrams that can easily be shared with team members

Google Fonts don't display when you save as a PDF. It replaces with default system fonts. I think this might be more of an Adobe limitation than Cacoo. I have to save as a PNG file, and it works fine as PNG.

You don't need to pay to try it out. It's very easy to use and covers a lot of things to make elegant diagrams

It's not completely responsive on some mobile devices.
