Product Info Reviews

Description:

Watch your business start running itself as you move through each process with FlowCharter 7.0. This heavy-duty interactive diagramming utility (since upgraded to the Office 2000-compatible iGrafx Professional) is an inexpensive way to integrate your business procedures with databases, spreadsheets, and applications. You can also design Living FlowCharts to guide new employees or better visualize procedures before they are ever implemented. With a library of over 3,800 shapes and drag-and-drop functionality, you'll find creating and manipulating flow charts to be as easy as playing solitaire.

The package is compatible with Microsoft Office 97, and its interface is just as familiar and easy to use. Import and export data as needed and use the script editors to modify object behavior or to customize any step of your operation. The wizards make designing flow charts as simple as possible while still allowing great flexibility and control over the end product. Though it would be nice if there were lower-level wizards for routine maintenance and editing, they're not really necessary, and some inspired scripting should take care of your automation problems.

Of course, just like other 20th-century software packages, FlowCharter 7.0 has some compatibility problems with Office 2000--mostly importing data from newer versions. This will eventually be a problem for almost any user, but if you're still using Office 97, this version should work well for you until you decide to upgrade both. --Rob Lightner
