How to use Visio

Visio makes turning data into visuals straightforward and accessible. It allows you to create diagrams that communicate ideas clearly, whether you’re working on a flowchart, an org chart, or a network layout. With touch-enabled drawing, you can sketch and annotate diagrams naturally on compatible devices. If you need an org chart, Visio can automatically generate one from Excel or Exchange data.

For more specialized visuals, Visio supports industry standards like BPMN 2.0 and UML 2.5. You can also link diagrams to live data sources, adding an interactive, real-time element to your work.

This license lasts for life with no recurring costs of any kind. Install it on one PC and start creating.
