Review on StarUML by Larry Daniels

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great product paired well w/ solid dev teams

The ability to quickly produce visual diagrams of complex business models, which makes it easier to communicate with stakeholders who may not be familiar with technical terms or programming languages. Some functions are difficult to learn (e.g., creating reusable components). I recommend using this tool if you're looking at rapid prototyping in order to create quick-and easy documentation that can then later evolve into full UML class diagramming in more detail. It's also helpful when communicating about design decisions because many people do not have formal training as engineers. This allows me to effectively convey my ideas without ambiguity since our team primarily consists of nontechnical employees from different backgrounds. We use it daily within our organization so there isn't much room here for improvement. Our internal project management system has become clearer thanks to its clear structure and hierarchy view; we've been able to better track progress through each phase by documenting what tasks need completed next.

Pros
  • The ability to create UML diagrams quickly
Cons
