Ralph started by saying that the answer depends on the kind of diagram to draw. Ralph's team use Visual Paradigm Online (VP Online) to create UML, ERD, DFD and other diagrams to use in documentation and communication, and they are pleased with it.
VP Online is a web-based drawing tool that supports many different kinds of diagrams such as flowchart, ERD, UML, Mind Map, Venn Diagram, Organization Chart, BPMN, ArchMate etc. The drawing tool features an intuitive and powerful editor that enables user to create diagrams quickly and smoothly.
Here is a list of key features Ralph suggested:
- Clear UI for quick flowchart editing
