## Reviews

### "チーム内のコミュニケーションツール" — 4.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *October 31, 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: クラス図、シーケンス図をよく使います。チーム内で設計の共通認識をとるのに最適なツールだと思います。マインドマップは、打ち合わせ時などにはメモとして残して、後から頭の整理をするのにとても重宝しています。
> 
> **Cons**: 同時に複数人でモデルの編集ができるとうれしいなと思います。また、GitHubなどで、履歴の管理ができるようになるとうれしいです。

### "設計書の標準化にツールを一本化" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *October 24, 2022* | Pharmaceuticals | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 社内（部内）での上流設計作業時のドキュメンテーションに関して、以前はエクセルベースでまとめていたので、書式、内容もバラバラでした。Astahは設計業務にかかわる多種の図表の表現に対応しているので、書式・内容を標準化するのに、非常に役立っています。
> 
> **Cons**: 細かいところでは、色々あったかもしれません。バージョンアップで結構改善されているので、今のところ不満はありません。

### "buen soporte compras y tecnico" — 5.0/5

> **teo** | *July 11, 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: la rapida respuesta en la compra y generacion de key
> 
> **Cons**: no tenemos ninguna incidencia con la compra de las licencias
> 
> buena en general

### "ＵＭＬツールのデファクタスタンダード" — 4.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *October 21, 2022* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 協力会社等、社外にUML作成を依頼した場合、astahで作成されている場合が多い。qwertyキーボードや、MS Officeと同じで、特に使い勝手が良いわけではないが、皆が使っており、互換性の問題が発生する以上、他への移行は考えづらい。
> 
> **Cons**: 単純な図を開くだけでも動作が重く時間がかかる。ライセンス情報が紙で来るため、配布が大変に面倒。時々アプリケーションがクラッシュする。
> 
> レビューのテキストボックスに半角英数を入れるとエラーになります。アプリも不具合多く、テストが不足していると思います。

### "直感的に使用可能なモデリングツール" — 4.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *May 15, 2023* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: モデリングの言語について、知識がない人でも直感的に使用ができるモデリングツールです。Microsoft社製のツールにもオブジェクトコピーすることができる機能について、資料作成時にも非常に重宝するものとなっています。
> 
> **Cons**: 同時編集の補助機能はありますが、プロジェクトファイルを複数人で同時編集ができるようになればうれしいと思います。
