SmartDraw is a web-based tool for floor planning and other scaled drawings as well as traditional diagramming. SmartDraw can be used to create floor plans, evacuation plans, accident reconstruction diagrams, wiring diagrams, fire safety diagrams, crime scene diagrams, planograms and other layouts. It can also be used to create traditional diagrams like flowcharts, organization charts, mind maps, project charts and other diagrams.[1][2]

Integration and Add-Ons

SmartDraw lets users import existing floor plan PDFS or Google Maps images to be the foundation of their scaled drawing.

Users can also create custom libraries of symbols using their own product catalog and add propriety data.

Users can add diagrams to Microsoft Office products including Word, PowerPoint, and Excel and Google Workspace applications like Google Docs and Google Sheets.

SmartDraw lets users save files to SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, and Box.

Users can also generate diagrams from data automatically through integrations with AWS, Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Entra ID, GitHub, and more.

SmartDraw has apps for Atlassian's Confluence, Jira, and Trello.
