Microsoft Visio Overview
Microsoft Visio is the diagramming application in the Microsoft ecosystem for Windows, used to create professional flowcharts, organizational charts, network diagrams, floor plans, engineering schematics, and many other technical and business visuals. It provides extensive, industry-specific shape stencils and templates, smart connectors that keep diagrams tidy as you edit, and the ability to link diagrams to live data so shapes reflect real information. It integrates with Microsoft 365 — including co-authoring and embedding diagrams in other Office apps — and supports standards like BPMN and UML. It is widely used in business and IT for documentation and process mapping. Visio is distributed as a subscription or one-time purchase, installed via Microsoft's installer.
