Process Mapping Software

Any suggestions for software tools to capture process mapping information. Visio is soooo cumbersome!

There's some discussion of flow charting software in this thread you might want to take a read through.

Actually, I want to do more than just flowchart. I want to capture impacts, resources, functional departments (we have redundancies that need shown), and software tools being used. I have heard of corporate modeler, but didn't know if anyone on the forum had used it, or something similar.

Try "IGrafx Process" - it contains everything you need in process mapping, including simulation of the process effectiveness (time,number of employees etc.)

Hi Piotr,
Would you please inform where to get information on the software you mentioned?

Hi guys

I'm just about to start using flowbiz. Seems to me that the main advantage is a single information source for your flowcharts and written procedures.

You're describing project management software or process management software - expensive, though very useful to some companies.
