    Microsoft Office Visio Standard 2007 makes it easy for IT and business professionals to visualize, explore, and communicate complex information. This software transforms complicated text and tables that are hard to understand to Visio diagrams that communicate information at a glance. When information is extremely complex, you run the risk of alienating and confusing members of your business team. That's why Visio 2007 gives you a new way to present complicated data so that everyone can absorb and understand it. Instead of static pictures, you can create data-connected Visio diagrams that display data, are easy to refresh, and dramatically increase your productivity.


    Using Office Visio 2007, create professional-looking diagrams that communicate a wealth of information you can share with a broad audience. View larger.
    Use the wide variety of available diagrams to understand, act on, and share information about organizational systems, resources, and processes throughout your enterprise. Put simply, Visio diagrams maximize the impact of important business information in ways words and numbers alone never could.

    This upgrade version of Visio Standard 2007 is available to those who have one of the following qualifying applications: Microsoft Visio Standard 2000-2002; Microsoft Office Visio Standard 2003.

    Two Stand-Alone Editions
    Visio 2007 is available in two stand-alone editions: Office Visio Professional and Office Visio Standard. Visio Standard 2007 has the same basic functionality as Visio Professional 2007 and includes a subset of its features and templates. Visio Professional 2007 offers advanced functionality, such as data connectivity and visualization features, that Visio Standard 2007 does not.

    Quickly Find and Use New Templates
    Visio 2007 includes specific tools to support the diverse diagramming needs of IT and business professionals and lets you create a broader range of diagrams with new templates, such as the ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) template and the Value Stream Mapping template. Use the predefined Microsoft SmartShapes symbols and powerful search capabilities to locate the right shape, whether it is saved on a computer or on the Web. You can also save time by quickly accessing templates you use often. In the new Getting Started window, find the template you need by browsing simplified template categories and using large template previews. Locate the templates you used recently by using the new Recent Templates view in the Getting Started window.



    Use the wide range of diagram types in Office Visio 2007 to better understand complex processes, resources, and systems. View larger.
    Get Inspired by Sample Diagrams
    If you're not sure how to best display your important data, Visio 2007 can help by making it easy to find new sample diagrams. Simply open the new Getting Started window and use the new Samples category. View sample diagrams that are integrated with data to get ideas for creating your own diagrams, to realize how data provides more context for many diagram types, and to determine which template you want to use.

    Display Data Attractively in Diagrams
    The Data Graphics feature lets you display data attractively in diagrams, and you can choose from a number of data formatting options. With a single click, display data fields as callouts next to a shape, position fields in boxes below a shape, and place fields of data directly on top or to the side of a shape. You also have the option of easily refreshing data in diagrams, thanks to the new Refresh Data feature. If data conflicts arise, easily resolve them by using the Refresh Conflicts task pane.



    Using Office Visio Professional 2007, visually explore data by using diagrams to identify issues and exceptions. View larger.
    Connect Shapes Without Drawing Connectors
    You don't have to be a professional graphic designer to build interesting diagrams--Visio 2007 gives you the tools to connect shapes without drawing connectors. The new AutoConnect functionality connects shapes, distributes them evenly, and aligns them for you--all with only one click. In fact, when you move the connected shapes, they stay connected and the connectors automatically reroute between the shapes.

    Identify Trends and Issues
    One of the benefits of creating diagrams is that you can more readily identify trends and issues and then act on them. First, you might choose to make your diagrams even smarter by linking them to data to provide a more complete picture of a process, project, or system. Then it's a snap to visually explore information to identify key trends, issues, and exceptions, and then act on them. Finally, you can analyze, drill down into, and create multiple views of business data to gain insight into it. Thanks to all these options, Visio Standard 2007 gives you the power to revolutionize the way you present information to colleagues and clients, which can positively affect productivity and your bottom line.

    4 out of 5 stars Microsoft Visio 2007   October 6, 2008

    Good product for constructing/designing flowcharts. As with all Microsoft programs it could be more user friendly. Lacks a true password protection for files...anyone can remove the protection.


    4 out of 5 stars Visio...A great specialized software product   June 27, 2007

    I own Visio versions since the very first version before Microsoft bought the company.

    Visio is a great product for makng organization charts, floor plans, diagrams, strip maps etc.

    This latest version is designed to work in Vista and with the latest office product versions.

    One thing I noticed is that this version of Visio lacks the current office 2007 interface. So it kinda of feel like it is one version behind.

    I wish that microsoft would finally go ahead and just make Visio a permanent part of the office package. Also they need to just have one version. Why do they have the profession edition that comes with a few extra templates (none of which are worth the price). I have own both versions of Visio and I find it very frustrating that if you want to do a quick electrical diagram you have to buy the professional edition. The professional edition offers very specific type templates such as electrical, electronic, architecture etc.

    The software shipped rather quickly. I had one minor installation problem where the upgrade would not install due to previous version I own.

    I had to go to the microsoft web help site. Fortunately I found why it would not install and fixed the problem. I tried upgrading from a very old version of Visio on CD ROM and the software couldnt not find the dll file to validate. I got an install error message. I went to Microsoft help and discovered I had to point the validation tool to another directory on the CD ROM. Not sure why microsoft didnt build it into the installer.
