    Question Visio alternatives?

    Is there a decent open source alternative to Visio, specifically for flowcharing?
    Got to look the business tho.

    Re: Visio alternatives?

    Yeah, that's where I found Dia, which does the job, it's just a bit too basic. Smart Draw would be ideal, if it was free. There is a very resricted 7 day demo, but it's too restricted.
