SmartDraw
SmartDraw makes professional drawings and diagrams accessible to everyone. Non-technical users can quickly create floor plans, while professionals get the precision and scale they require. With industry-leading floor planning tools and an intuitive interface for traditional diagramming like flowcharts and organizational charts, SmartDraw delivers enterprise-ready power without unnecessary complexity.
SmartDraw includes a large collection of symbols and templates to help users get started quickly and easily without extensive training. In addition to floor plans, site plans, landscapes, and other layouts, users can create flowcharts, organizational charts, mind maps, project charts, technical engineering diagrams, IT diagrams, and more. SmartDraw also allows users to create custom shapes using their own product catalog or other existing assets. Users can import PDFs, images, Google Maps, Visio files, and Visio stencils to build on existing plans and workflows. Drawings can be created to any scale, ensuring accuracy for every use case.
SmartDraw makes it easy to enrich drawings with data, enabling more informative and dynamic visuals. Users can also generate manifests and bills of materials directly from their diagrams to support planning , procurement, oversight, and compliance. The app can automatically generate diagrams from data, including organizational charts, AWS and Azure architectures, PI Boards, class diagrams, ERDs, and more. In addition, users can use natural language prompts to instantly generate diagrams like flowcharts and mind maps with AI.
Files can be saved directly to SmartDraw or the user's preferred storage provider like OneDrive, SharePoint, or Google Drive for better data security. SmartDraw also integrates with the Microsoft and Google enterprise tech stacks, as well as tools like Confluence and Jira. SmartDraw works hand in glove with your existing IT infrastructure without disruption to maximize what you've already invested in.
