Jump-start diagramming with templates : With modern, pre-drawn shapes, intelligent templates, and sample drawings, Visio 2007 offers a wide variety of options to meet your diagramming needs for IT, business, process management, and more.

- Find and access the tools you need quickly: Every step in creating a diagram is more intuitive, with the logical groupings of features in Ribbon tabs, an enhanced Shapes window for easy access to shapes and stencils, and a new status bar that helps you move more efficiently within and between your diagrams.

- Draw diagrams faster with improved automatic features: Whether you are creating a diagram from scratch, or modifying an existing diagram, Visio 2010 helps you add and align shapes easily and accurately with features such as the Quick Shapes Mini Toolbar, enhanced dynamic grid, page Auto Size, and automatic alignment and layout adjustment.

- Simplify large and complex diagrams: Add clarity to diagrams using Subprocesses and Containers to group related shapes visually and logically. As a diagram grows larger or becomes more complex, Subprocesses and Containers help you to keep information more organized and understandable.
