I mainly use it for personal use since I don't want to pay for Visio, which I have access from my workplace. It is surprisingly easy to use compared to Visio and diagrams are also visually pleasing
I spent a little over 2 hours building out a diagram, which I was blissfully unaware was not saving despite all indications to the contrary. I understand it is a freemium software, so I shouldn't expect much. However, I had actually paid for a subscription to their online service and a license for their desktop app. If they're going to take my money, then my minimum expectation is that it does the thing it says it does.
As for the desktop app, it cannot be installed on 64bit linux distros without absurd effort and research because it depends on software that is no longer supported by any of the main distros. You're not safe if you're on OSX either. I installed it on Yosemite and it completely fell over; couldn't load any diagrams.
I imagine most diagram services provide a better experience than this.
Totally agree. Spent 1,5 hour to create a diagramm. Then, created an account to store it. After that, impossible to get my 1,5 h work back. My diagramm was ... deleted, corrupted, i don't know... i don't recommend this app too.

The "free" plan is a lie, the program is mostly a premium with a very limited free trial. The storage limit counts every object that you made even if you delete it, so you will inevitably run out of space and be forced to upgrade. I made 2 small E/R diagrams and it locked me out. The support page also specifies you cannot free space because it will still count. Also their customer support is unreachable and the editor is very slow.
Tried to sign in using Google which fails. Tried to demo and it asks for flash! It's 2018! Flash has been dead for a decade!
Easy and efficient tool when making mind maps, flowcharts, and even Venn diagrams.
I have been using this for last 5 years. Easy to draw and share diagram with this.
