    I have been a user of Visual Paradigm. I think Visual Paradigm is far better UML platform in the Market. Many web diagramming tools claim to support UML, but in fact, they only support diagramming but not modeling capabilities.

    Recently, the Enterprise Edition supports also automated process such as PMBOK and TOGAF, our company would like to upgrade our current license to EE edition.

    The best and feature-rich UML tool in the market! Nice supports and excellent agile development features such as Scrum /Sprint process management. , especially, the Community Edition, not like other free tools imposed with a lots of restriction and limitation. It is genuinely free & with lots of good feature

    One of the top CASE Programs up there with visio.

    Pros:

    • lots of options, ERD, DFD, ST diagram, UML, JIT, etc...
    • time saving features, not just another stupid vector diagram tool.
    • lots of import / export options.

    Cons:

    • Expensive licence ($2000 USD) for the enterprise edition which has all the good stuff, from the point of view of a small team, personal user, student.
    • Annoying water marks running diagonally all over the generated Diagrams images.
    • Community edition is really poor in features.
    • No reasonably priced option for Personal / individual use, small teams or students.
    • Really slow to launch, to be expected from a java program.
    • visio or any other free online tools are a better alternative price wise.
