Innovation in diagramming has streamlined complex UML tasks
Visual Paradigm allowed me to create UML diagrams efficiently. The tool was smarter than other tools in terms of remembering the connections between components on the screen. For example, in other drawing programs, if I moved a box, I had to move the arrow, but Visual Paradigm handled those tasks automatically. This made it much quicker than using other tools like Visio or MagicDoor.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Flexibility of development; the developer can use various JavaScript APIs for development and most or all of the components are plug and play, so customization is easily achievable most of the time."
"Using the Component Diagram, Visual Paradigm helps with design and control, reusing components."
"I like the fact that this solution is complete."
"Visual Paradigm is the best product I've used."
"I find it very user-friendly for my purposes, which is creating business process models that I can publish as HTML pages. It has worked flawlessly for my project, and my clients are able to utilize it as an internal web portal for their process documentation and other needs."
"I love Visual Paradigm because it has many different types of diagrams. For any field of engineering, we can find a diagram."
"The Visual Paradigm business process forms for designing were good, and there was not a lot of configuration for the process diagram."
"The solution is the best application for data modeling. It helps to architect business processes. Its best features are pricing and functionality."
"I guess the most valuable feature is that I find it easy-to-use and understand its data modeling structure and user interface."
 

Cons

"Yes, the servers are not as efficient as required."
"The product's versioning capability needs improvement."
"For me, what needs improvement in Visual Paradigm is the limited features included in the $99 license, which is the cheapest option. If more features could be included in the cheapest licensing package, Visual Paradigm would be better, especially for businesses that have a limited budget for buying software."
"Online support is very lacking and appears to be an entre' for paid support."
"The solution can be heavy on resource usage."
"The other thing that needs improvement is pricing."
"I would like to see the ability to easily export to groupware, such as Atlassian Confluence."
"The solution is not user-friendly. It uses a lot of memory and CPU. You have to have a good computer to use it."
"I would suggest the shortening and/or hiding some of the information when working on Visual Paradigm, especially when translating from code to UML."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I rate Visual Paradigm's pricing a five out of ten."
"Visual Paradigm has two models available. One of them is the educational edition, and another is the business edition. For my personal usage, I use the educational version mostly. In a project, my customers have to purchase a license."
"Pricing for Visual Paradigm is a four out of five for me. I'm happy with its pricing."
"Visual Paradigm costs $99 per license. I chose the cheapest option from the pricing list."
"The pricing of Visual Paradigm is very appropriate and affordable. There are no hidden costs involved."
"This product is fairly cheap, but if you want more complex features, e.g. integration with other products, it does require an additional cost."
"You can use Paradigm on a subscription basis and you can choose from different tiers of subscription."
"This is an open-sourced solution, it is free to use."
