Ideogramic UML™
Modeling is an essential activity in modern software
development. Using the standardized Unified Modeling Language (UML),
analysts can document large domains, software architects can design
complex software architectures, and developers can document their code
efficiently. Using Ideogramic UML™ you can start to exploit these
benefits in new and powerful ways.
Lightweight, but Fast and Powerful
Ideogramic UML™ is a powerful but lightweight tool for creating
UML diagrams. Unlike general drawing programs, Ideogramic UML™ has
been designed specifically for UML diagramming, and thus offers an interaction that is
much more intelligent and much faster. And unlike heavyweight CASE
tools with bloated, hard-to-learn interfaces Ideogramic UML™ offers
just the features that
you need resulting in a tool that stimulates creativity instead of
hindering it.
Process-Free
Gone are the days of strict development processes that degrade
developers to machines, and new agile development
processes are booming. Ideogramic UML™ has been designed to be
process-free, so that you can use the tool with any process that you
like.
Flexible
Modeling is never an entirely formal endeavor. Modelers need to
have a firm understanding of the domain they are modeling, and this
understanding needs to be documented. In Ideogramic UML™, this
knowledge can be captured, and displayed, directly in the diagrams as
freehand drawings, and textual annotations etc. This gives you the
possibility to document your design and store your domain knowledge
leading to models with higher quality.

Pervasive and Adaptive UML Modeling
Ideogramic UML™ is not only the premier choice for lightweight
and creative UML modeling -- Ideogramic UML™ is also unique in its
support for pervasive and adaptive use of UML. For a deeper
explanation and for video clips demonstrating how Ideogramic UML™
supports collaboration between stakeholders and mobility in your
workplace, check our section on pervasive modeling.
