The largest con with Microsoft Visio is that it does come in the traditional Microsoft Office Standard set of tools. Furthermore, various vendors make symbol packages so that specific types of diagrams are easy to build. The idea is to make the diagram look as closely to real life as possible. Since hardware vendors want free advertising, they often release their own Microsoft Visio symbols. This allows you to re-organize your drawing without having to completely re-make all the interconnecting lines.Īnother pro to Microsoft Visio is that the amount of images to use is mind boggling. Furthermore, as you need to move these images around, any lines already anchored will be re-drawn. The tool helps complete that for you by setting up red square "anchors". You don't have to draw perfectly straight lines.

Microsoft Visio has a number of pros and cons that I will now discuss. Microsoft Visio is a software tool that allows a person to diagram networks and other systems.
