Dec 07, 2008  SmartDraw offers a powerful and easy-to-use solution for those looking for a Visio ® alternative on a Mac. SmartDraw offers more templates, better tools, industry-leading automation — all while being more affordable and available on any platform, Mac or Windows.

Visio is the most conspicuous example of a program that I found useful on Windows for which I have not identified a Mac-compatible replacement. Visio's primary function is as a flowchart diagramming tool.

It allows the user to construct complex information flows with smart objects and interconnect graphics that snap and bend as the user moves things around on the page. It's morphed over the years to support other diagram and information flow views like IT diagrams and UI mockups. What's out there that can replace Visio on the Mac?

Surprised to see that isn't on here. • HTML5 based • Supports all the IT libraries I want • Import and export any Visio files • It has a visio viewer that allows you to edit and view visio files.

This is because its integrated with your google drive so it is easy for Lucidchart to allow you to work on those files and export it. • Lucid chart has a collaborative interface that allows to easily work with small teams editing rather than having to send a diagram back and forth.

• Its free for a single user. (there are other options which do have prices attached which isn't too bad) • It has a drag and drop feature which makes it easy to use and is very intuitive.

An alternative viewer to the one mentioned in Donald B's answer is: A smart file viewing tool to support the use of Visio files by Mac OS users, enabling them to view, save and print Microsoft Visio drawings and diagrams on Mac OS X 10.7 and higher. • View Microsoft Visio Drawings in VSD format easily on Mac. Free • Convert Visio to PDF with original elements retained. • Support multi-tab viewing to switch between multiple Visio files easily.

It is a 'Paid-For' product however it is available as a 'Free Trial', to allow you to try before you buy (if so desired).

What is the alternative of ms Visio for Mac? You can try something called Lucidchart. It is a design diagram tool. You can subscribe for Lucidchart at $9.95 / month for personal use and $2.00-$5.00 user / month for team use. Also, you can use OmniGraffle for Mac. It has features similar to MS Visio and works well with Mac.

It is available for download from Mac Apple Store. The trial mode is available for 14 days without a license. Upon expiry you will have to purchase a license version from the App Store. Mac OS X v10.6.8 or higher version should be available for installation of OmniGraffle.
