3 visio
Visio is a professional comprehensive drawing software launched by Microsoft. It is powerful and has a high degree of freedom, but it also has a lot of criticism.
- Genuine visio is very expensive, but non-genuine is usually enough, and it is easy to obtain the genuine by other ways
- Does not support Mac
- The operating environment has certain requirements and takes up storage space
400 million chart icon
The appearance of this software feels like visio, but the complete (PJ) version is not very easy to find, just reply "Yitu" in the background
- Support windows, mac, Linux
- Many drawing types with 1w+ drawing symbols and 1k+ templates
- Support pen tool, screenshot
- Compatible with vsd and vsdx formats, that is to say you can use visio to open everywhere

5 Nut cloud drawing
I estimate that this tool is mainly used as cloud storage in many ways, but it actually provides a lot of white prostitution functions. Do not believe you Google, most of Google came out to say that it is safe storage, cross-platform network disk and so on. In fact, it is also an excellent flowchart tool. But you need to register and log in
- Can store tens of thousands of flow charts, just by creating a new -> drawing file -> editing
- Cloud storage
