"Incredible Program"
Pros
Stunning, helpful templates with awesome library icons that work no matter your industry or business. Incredibly user-friendly. Clear concise navigation that makes using the program fun and intuitive. This program has no peer. It's the best on the market of its kiind and the newest version, unbelievably, improves on what was already an AMAZING program. Highly recommend this program!The naysayers are "completely" wrong. This is the best out there!
Cons
Not really a con, because the program continues to evolve, but we're hopeful future editions will include more concert and special event templates, coupled with libary graphics.
Summary
Not sure where these naysayers are coming from. Our firm represents popular entertainers and producers which requires us to produce everything from Film Funding Proposals, Strategic Career Plans, Stage plots, organizational charts, etc. Prior to using SmartDraw, it was onerous to create and insert professional, yet visually stunning graphics. This program has it all. Templates, the ability to create your own templates, and a graphics library to create these templates that is awesome. What we like best is that whether we're creating a hard-nosed financial proposal which requires clear to-the-point graphics and charts, or creating a television, film or record company business plan, we can do so easily, effortlessly and with aplomb. We've used Visio and several other programs over the years and SmartDraw, hands-down, is without peer.
