Microsoft Office Visio is the perfect tool for IT and business professionals that allows them to deal with complex information more easily. Office Visio is a powerful program to create professional-looking and very handy diagrams that enable you to communicate information to a broad audience at a glance. Unlike static pictures or complicated tables, Visio diagrams display data in a clear way and allows you to easily visualize and share information about organizational systems, resources, and processes throughout your entire enterprise. Among the wide range of templates available you can find business process flowcharts, network diagrams, workflow diagrams, database models, and software diagrams. There is a new Getting Started window where you can search for the template you need by browsing simplified template categories and using large template previews. Office Visio 2007 is available in two stand-alone editions: Office Visio Standard and Office Visio Professional , which offers advanced functionality, such as data connectivity, visualization features and a wider range of templates.
