Microsoft Visio remains the best tool for designing diagrams in companies in the Standard 2021 edition, based on widely used industry standards such as IEEE. In addition, Microsoft has made thousands of detailed improvements and introduced new features to make it easier to work on projects in larger teams. The software is therefore explicitly aimed at professional users. Nevertheless, the program remains easy to learn, thanks in particular to countless templates and the familiar Microsoft Office interface. Every purchaser continues to receive 2 GB of free storage space with Microsoft's own cloud solution, OneDrive.
Diagrams can be generated in Microsoft Visio Standard 2021 immediately after the program is launched: hundreds of templates based on a selection of more than 250,000 shapes ensure this. Since the desktop application also updates itself continuously, new templates are added regularly. Users can then share finished diagrams not only as Microsoft Visio data sets, but also via the Internet: Microsoft Visio Standard 2021 supports web-based displays of diagrams or output as PDF files for users who do not have Microsoft Visio on their device. Comments that other users then add to the diagram are immediately visible to the creator of the project, who thus receives feedback.
Specifically for Microsoft Visio Standard 2021 and Microsoft Windows 10 or 11, Microsoft has also improved support for finger input and pens such as the Microsoft Surface Pen. Diagrams can be refined using natural input methods, using virtual ink or even your fingers to color shapes, move them around, and rearrange diagrams. This also makes it easier to use the program on a tablet such as the iPad Pro, for which a separate app is available in the official Apple Store. To improve collaboration with others, the annotation features have been enhanced and the integration of Skype for Business into the program interface has been expanded.
New data is imported directly from popular programs such as Excel into Microsoft Visio Standard 2021. This saves time when editing diagrams, as manual entries are less frequent. To then bring these diagrams to life and clearly present even large amounts of information, countless colors, shapes, and graphics are available to focus attention on the data that is really important to the viewer. In addition, the program supports the integration of drawings created in the popular AutoCAD software. This also significantly expands the range of functions, as even complex shapes become possible.
As soon as any data that has already been integrated into the diagram changes, Microsoft Visio Standard 2021 will immediately update the project display. To do this, the program continuously scans the integrated data—regardless of where it comes from and whether it is available locally or on the network—and then immediately passes on any changes to the current diagram. This ensures that everyone working on the project always has an overview and can collaborate on a single version of the diagram. Eliminating the need for manual updates also simplifies the work process and saves a lot of time in the long run.
Microsoft has developed Microsoft Visio Standard 2021 to be compatible exclusively with one of the editions of Microsoft Windows 10 or 11 and Microsoft Windows 10S. It is not possible to run the software with an older version of Microsoft Windows. Furthermore, this offer is a product key for a desktop PC or notebook. There are no additional subscription costs. Microsoft guarantees to provide updates for this software for at least five years.
