LeanIX, a provider of Software-as-a-Service solutions in Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM), today announced a partnership and a product integration with Lucidchart, the leading visual workspace that combines diagramming, collaboration and data visualization.
The LeanIX-Lucidchart integration officially launches today at EA Connect Day, the leading peer conference for Enterprise Architecture. The out-of-the-box integration allows enterprise architects to choose Lucidchart as a third diagram type, to take advantage of its wide range of diagram templates and shape libraries. Enterprise and Solution Architects can now start complex diagrams in LeanIX and apply Lucidchart’s in-depth visualization feature set, allowing them to be more effective in translating strategic IT planning into action.
Starting today, the product integration will be available at no additional cost for LeanIX and Lucidchart business subscribers. This integration opens up capabilities for Enterprise Architects and now Solution Architects as they leverage the EA data more deeply and connect it to their solution architectures. Users will be able to:
- Select Lucidchart as an available Diagram type in their LeanIX workspaces.
- Import existing Lucidchart documents into LeanIX and link them directly to Fact Sheets, LeanIX’s proprietary EA data source.
- Convert LeanIX Diagrams into Lucidchart documents, applying Lucidchart’s rich features for styling visualizations.
- Preview, open, and edit LeanIX documents in Lucidchart.
- Integrate and collaborate via commonly used project management and productivity software platforms like Atlassian, Microsoft Office, G Suite, Slack, and others.
