Creately Benefits

Benefits

The main benefits of Creately are diagram templates and tools, data import and export, and real-time collaboration. Here are more details on Creately’s benefits:

Diagram Templates and Tools

Creately has over a thousand templates to choose from. Templates are useful because it means that those who have no experience in graphic design can still create aesthetically pleasing diagrams. If you need to create diagrams quickly, being able to choose a template is also beneficial. The design structure is already generated and all you have to do is add text and connect one object to another. There is also a toolbar that shows you all actions that you can do when you select an object or text. You can easily transfer objects using the app’s drag-and-drop interface. Alternatively, you can start with a blank page and create your diagram from scratch.

Data Import and Export

When you’re done creating your diagram, you can export it into PNG, SVG, JPEG, or PDF then share it with your colleagues. You can also import data to the app. Creately supports PNG, SVG, JPEG, and VISIO file formats. What is notable with the app is that it supports SVG and VISIO files. The benefit of SVG is that you can scale your diagrams up or down without losing image quality. The benefit of VISIO files is that you can continue to edit the files that you created in Microsoft Visio (another diagramming software) directly in Creately without losing any of your formatting or elements.

Real-time Collaboration

Collaborating in real-time is an important feature to look for in from the various robust tools in a list of mind mapping software solutions. You can invite anyone to collaborate with you in Creately by sending an invite to their email addresses. You can also copy the file links then send them to other members of your team. For security purposes, the links are divided into two types: view and edit links. This means that people whom you have not authorized to edit files can only view them.
