When used effectively, Visio can accelerate decision-making, optimise management at a service or organisational level and aid communication.
Visio is actually quite an old application, initially released by Shapeware Corporation in 1992. It enjoyed a rapid rise to success. As its popularity increased, it went through a series of upgrades to meet ever-growing user requirements before finally being bought by Microsoft in the 2000s.
At this point, it became “Microsoft Visio 2000”, a Windows application used for creating flowcharts and diagrams to provide visual representations of systems, processes or services. Its popularity continued to grow thanks to additional features integrating it with Excel and PowerPoint, as well as the ability to connect diagrams directly to data sources and generate graphical representations of the data.
These days, Visio is used for statistics and to generate reports, as well as:
These many and varied uses make Visio a comprehensive, feature-rich application that can be used by sales teams, comms departments and project managers.
According to Microsoft, Visio has a clear purpose: “Organise complex ideas visually.” To achieve this, the application provides users with over a hundred diagrams and templates, such as:
Apart from these features, Visio also has some built-in functional models, including:
Visio is an application for professional use and it’s more suitable for advanced users. Despite its simple and intuitive interface, it’s still essential to learn to use Visio if you want to get the most out of its features.
In addition to the wide selection of diagrams and templates, Visio also includes a range of features that make it a genuine productivity tool.
Any Visio diagram can be automatically inserted into a Word document. In just a few clicks, you can create professional-quality reports, plans or user manuals.
You can share your Visio creations in PowerPoint slideshows in exactly the same way. Flowcharts, bar graphs and infographics can quickly provide visual representations of the information you’re presenting.
In the desktop version, Visio can be connected to data from:
Our Microsoft Visio training will teach you how to create all kinds of diagrams using data from these different sources, to be displayed from any device.
Visio 365 and Visio Web App are part of the Office 365 suite, hosted in the Cloud and accessible from any web browser. This cloud-hosted version gives access to the software from any device and location and also allows several people to work together on the same diagram.
With our online or in-person Visio course, your teams will learn to view and edit their diagrams in a collaborative way using Teams. With the Web App version, they’ll also be able to export diagrams to Microsoft Flow, Word, PowerPoint or the Excel Visio Data Visualiser.
Our Microsoft Visio training will teach you and your teams how to use the features of this Microsoft application to help you achieve your goals, whatever they may be.
Our courses are completely modular and customised. Our trainers are experts in IT, professional social networks and office application suites. Depending on your business needs, you could combine the Visio training with other Microsoft applications, such as PowerPoint, Excel or the whole Office 365 suite. We can also provide training in Microsoft Access or other tools that allow you to store and organise data and then display it in your Visio diagrams.
Our teams can come to your workplace to train your staff in these different applications. They can also explain how the tools interface with each other if needed. You might prefer to opt for a Microsoft Visio course in our training rooms in Brussels. We have all the equipment needed to provide you with a seamless training experience. Quality Training also provides online Visio training. This isn’t just a series of videos, but genuine webinars and interactive virtual classes where you’ll receive the same quality of training as you would if you were attending in person.
