Draw.io
Reviewed on 07/09/2023
Pros
Draw.io is a gem when it comes to creating diagrams and flowcharts. Here are a few things I love about it: ease of use, versatility, integration, collaboration, cost. Working on the same screen with my teammates provides both speed and convenience.
Cons
Honestly, it's tough to find major faults with draw.io, but if I had to nitpick: offline access, advanced features.For extremely complex and technical diagrams, I've found that some specialized diagramming tools offer slightly more advanced features. However, for the majority of my needs, draw.io is more than sufficient.

Draw.io for web developers
Reviewed on 09/11/2023
Pros
It's very easy to use. With the basic and simple shapes, you can customise and create a variety of diagrams. And if you don't want to start from scratch, it offers so many templates according to the type of diagram you want to create.
Cons
Overall it's very good. I started using it when I was a student. The only negative aspect I see is that sometimes the interface isn't precise to the way you want to move your arrows while creating diagrams.

Pros
This software is free, has online and app versions, and is extremely easy to use. I highly recommend using this as it is much easier than Powerpoint diagrams.
Cons
The locations blocks in diagrams are connected can be difficult to setup so the diagram is readable. This only applies to small blocks.
