Blog Post #8 Selected Technology

As I mentioned in a previous post I've chosen to research and learn more about Lucidchart. Lucidchart can be used to share information in a visual form. Having Lucidchart available will allow different types of learners to pick up information in a simplified way. This will make it easier to comprehend information which is unorganized and extremely detailed.

Lucidchart allows users to pick from a variety of different templates which best suits their needs. Lucidchart also gives users the ability to simply create their own template if they can't find one that suits their needs. Their templates include but are not limited to flowcharts and organizational charts.

The one thing I learned that disappointed me is a user can sign up for the basic/basic plan for free. However, one needs to pay a monthly fee to have access to more options such as team collaborations. Although the team plan only costs $21 per month it's still a cost to students wanting to use this technology to the fullest capabilities.
