Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Microsoft Visio 2007 makes it easy for IT and business professionals to visualize, explore, and communicate complex information. Go from complicated text and tables that are hard to understand to Visio diagrams that communicate information at a glance. Instead of static pictures, create data-connected Visio diagrams that display data, are easy to refresh, and dramatically increase your productivity. Use the wide variety of diagrams in Visio 2007 to understand, act on, and share information about organizational systems, resources, and processes throughout your enterprise.

Visio 2007 is available in two stand-alone editions: Visio Professional and Visio Standard. Visio Standard 2007 has the same basic functionality as Visio Professional 2007 and includes a subset of its features and templates. Visio Professional 2007 offers advanced functionality, such as data connectivity and visualization features, that Visio Standard 2007 does not.

Database functionality removed 3 Sep 2007
By Darcey Spears - Published on Amazon.com
I upgraded from Visio 2000 Enterprise and was dismayed to discover that the ability to generate a database from a Visio diagram has been removed. It is now only available in the Visio version through an MSDN Subscription - expensive and unreasonable for individual purchasers. Buyer beware....if you want database management functionality get something else.

The only Office 2007 product I have bothered to install 1 Feb 2010
By D. Brennan - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase
Visio 2007 Professional is the only 2007 generation Office product from Microsoft that I have bothered to install. There are genuine usability and feature upgrades in this product over previous generations that make this a must have in my line of work. I use this product extensively for:

- Cross functional work flows - charting processes across multiple departments, people, places, etc. There are a wealth of diagramming and work flow tools in Visio.

- Database design - it's a good tool for the conceptual design of databases as it allows free-form design without rules

- Home and office furniture layout - it's cheaper and easier to use than AutoCad, and has all the functionality that most average users require

- Computer network diagrams - this is my most common use of this product and it does the job very well

- Website mapping - point Visio at a website and it will map the site for you. Alternatively, you can design the hierarchy of your own website.

- Graphic creation for use in PowerPoint presentations - Graphs, charts, marketing analysis and other tools within Visio allow you to quickly create effective graphics for use in presentations without having to be a graphic artist.

- I have used Visio extensively for Project Management charts, but my company has standardized on Project.

All of these functions existed in previous versions, but the usability of each function has been improved in 2007.
Good product - except for crashes 23 Feb 2011
By jbell - Published on Amazon.com

This version of Visio is a good update and worth the money - when/if it runs.

PROS: The ability to graph a data model and reverse engineer an existing model is very handy.
The graphics are enhanced
It still has the relative simplicity of the older versions
The enhanced Gantt chart is very useful
The workflow graphs are also handy

CONS:
The only big flaw and the reason I gave it 2 stars is that this package does not run on Windows 7 very well. The program tends to crash with a non-recoverable error every 5 minutes or so. There doesn't appear to be any fixes that MS offers. I'm running 64bit W7 on a Dell Latitude E6410 with 8GB of memory.
