I notice that Bits du Jour have a one-day special on Flowbreeze shortly.

Links are: http://www.bitsdujour.com and http://breezetree.com

The software intrigues me as it uses MS Excel as its base and seems fairly intuitive and speedy - unlike some other flowcharters I've seen which require just about a degree in graphic art.

Because of its links with MS Office apps, I imagine it would also work in translating outlining-type text into a flowchart.

Does anyone here have any user experience with Flowbreeze? Comments would be appreciated.

TIA

Jack suggested that FlowBreeze probably could create a flowchart from an outline.

Inspiration definitely can do this.

As can MindManager no doubt. I have both.


My Crimp got the better of me for a moment. It's back under control.

It's an interesting thought, but No I wouldn't use it for outlining.

I've been asked a number of times whether FlowBreeze was suitable for mind mapping, org charting, and a few other diagramming styles. Really, FlowBreeze is just a flowcharting tool. I like to think that it's a fast and easy to use flowcharting tool, but I wouldn't recommend it for anything beyond that*.

Thanks for your honest feedback Nick.

I'm sure people here appreciate it.

Nicholas,

I appreciate very much your honest reply!

I have just bought a licence of FlowBreeze and I am impressed of the simplicity of use.
Further, I can't wait to see the FlowBreeze Pro Version for Business Process Mapping (BPM) coming in 2007.

All the best,
Dominik
