    andrewbailey

    Visual Paradigm is a real modeling tool while Lucidchart is only a drawing tool. Visual Paradigm supports modeling by allowing the reusability of model elements in different diagrams. It also supports the transitioning and maintaining the traceability among models (e.g. as-is BPD to to-be BPD). Visual Paradigm supports the integration with IDEs like Eclipse, Visual Studio, NetBeans and IntelliJ IDEA.
