Switching to draw.io

With the introduction of Linchpin, Meyer Werft also switched from Gliffy to draw.io.
Wolf Wolzenburg, the Solution Coordinator and Architect at Meyer Werft, speaks about the transition.

The decisive criterion for switching to draw.io was its ability to import Gliffy diagrams and the legal certainty for commercial use.
Diagrams that had already been created can now be used in draw.io for all kinds of publications without any restrictions.
draw.io is the highest-rated Confluence app by customers on the Atlassian Marketplace since 2013.
