    "In it's infancy"

    March 29, 2008  |   By jmatch83

    Pros

    + HUGE plus, the lines are COMPLETELY manipulatable! It doesn't assume you want the line to go where you don't want it to, you draw it, it goes there!

    + Simple to use, almost too simple.

    + Could be used for a wide range of flowcharting needs.

    + Could get the job done (I might use it to get my CIS assignments done), but very basic.

    Cons

    - It is VERY VERY basic, it only has (in the UML section) an actor, class, use case task (oval), note, and the lines.

    - Activity diagrams would have to be made using its basic shapes and lines, not sure that would really suffice.

    - Attributes and Methods (Operations) are basically edited via the VB-esque property of a multi-line text box. Meaning you will have to type the plus or minus to show privacy and the parentheses to show method/operation.
