Lucidchart Integrates with Google Hangouts Chat to Extend Collaboration with G Suite

SOUTH JORDAN, Utah, Feb. 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Lucidchart, the visual productivity platform that drives innovation and collaboration, today announced a new product integration with Hangouts Chat, the collaboration tool in G Suite built to bring teams together. This announcement extends Lucidchart's robust offering within the G Suite environment and provides even more opportunities for users to utilize Lucidchart seamlessly as they work.

"For years now, we've integrated tightly with G Suite, making it easy for people to think and communicate with clarity," said Karl Sun, co-founder and CEO of Lucidchart. "The addition of Chat takes this a step further, merging Lucidchart's real-time collaboration features with Google's intelligent chat tool. Together, we make it easier than ever for individuals and teams to innovate faster."

Lucidchart's integration with Chat enhances the centralized team communication platform by providing a virtual whiteboard where teams can work in real time to brainstorm ideas and map out processes and ideas clearly. An existing G Suite and Lucidchart account is all that's required to utilize this feature.

This new integration follows a long line of Lucidchart add-ons in G Suite. The company's platform also offers the following compatibility with Google: 

• Google Docs: Allows users to access the Lucidchart editor from Docs, embed existing diagrams, and update inserted diagrams in one click.
• Google Sheets: Allows users to add explanatory diagrams directly into spreadsheets.
• Google Slides: Allows users to insert visuals and diagrams directly into presentations without leaving Slides and build slides in Lucidchart with presentation mode and then export them to Slides.
• Google Drive: Allows users to store and access diagrams alongside other files in Drive and set up automatic file syncing, backups, and doc sharing from Drive.
• G Suite: For admins who want to manage Lucidchart across their enterprise teams, this integration places Lucidchart in the "Apps Launcher" menu and automatically provisions accounts for new users.
