Ask HN: what software you use to create UML's?

[p47]

Hi,

I'm currently with AgroUML, but it's still needs a lot of work :/. I'm working with my team remotely so important for me is easy sharing options with my teammates.

What do you use for remote work?

Visual Paradigm -

* It's cross platform (I use it at work on PC and home on a Mac).

* The pricing is very fair, particularly the single-user edition ($70).

* The community and viewer editions are free.

* It has nice support for automatically aligning/formatting/reorganizing diagrams.

On the downside the toolbar isn't that great, many common operations are in the main or context menus. Also the diagram explorer doesn't support subfolders for grouping things together.

staruml - http://staruml.sourceforge.net on windows.

just in case, you are using eclipse/netbeans, they have decent modelling capabilities.

I've found ArgoUML to be quite hard to work with. BoUML is much better.
