It's a shame and I don't necessarily want to bag on the SmartDraw organization still, I don't think they're very smart in this regard. And, of course promptly told *everyone* I knew in San Diego that certain SmartDraw folks had poor decision-making ability (well, I probably didn't put it THAT delicately!). I ended the call quickly by assuring him that Nik was doing quite well financially, that I was surprised at his demeanor given his CEO's reputation, and that I would be buying Microsoft Visio.

Uggh! This was getting too hard, then it turned downright nasty: He suggested that if Nik Software were more profitable they could surely afford a site license of SmartDraw. I tactfully suggested that if he were to trade software with me, I would gladly share the diagrams with decision-makers in those departments. After hearing my plight, he immediately suggested that I consider a site license and show the HR and Accounting departments the software (since they need to do diagrams too). not the case.ДЄfter being passed around via email, I finally was able to reach someone in their sales department.

One well-respected award-winning piece software for a copy of yours. Simple - call the other product manager (or someone in a position of authority) and offer to make an in-kind trade.

Everything was peachy until I printed the diagram with a huge 'This Page Printed by a Trial Version of SmartDraw' watermark on it. I quickly downloaded their Trial Version and drew up a diagram or two. SmartDraw seemed to be just the ticket, although being pretty good with consumer software, it did feel a little TOO 'consumer-ish.' Still, it was going to get the job done. I've seen Paul Stannard, their CEO, talk about their investment and energy around this area several times and have come away favorably impressed. SmartDraw is a local San Diego software developer and, among the cognoscenti here, widely respected for their excellent SEO (search engine optimization) programs. After a quick Google search and a quick read of the reviews on, I decided that SmartDraw (by a company of the same name) might be a good choice. I'm not a huge 'diagrammer,' and don't do it very often, but every once and awhile the drawing tools in MS PowerPoint are not enough. Recently I had the need to do some diagrams for a presentation.
