  • Does creately have any plans to create a standards-based product, for example using HTML5? Using Adobe is a show-stopper for a large number of potential users. Frankly I’d be happy to buy a less-capable product, rather than use a free Adobe-based product.

  • Hi Scott,
    Thanks for the comment and sorry for the slow reply. We do not have any immediate plans to create a HTML5 version of Creately, although we do have a Creately Diagram Viewer that is HTML and Javascript based. We have used Adobe Flash as our platform of choice due to it’s maturity, feature richness and consistency across platforms. I know that HTML 5 has come on a long way but it still isn’t quite as good as Flash for doing some really cool things in the web browser. Flash has allowed us to make Creately available to a very wide audience with minimal changes to support so many browsers and operating systems. In the future this might change substantially and we will continue to watch HTML5, conduct our experiments and listen to our users needs. Please stay tuned.
    Thanks
    Nick
