It's also what made the company: they were originally developers of software targeting NeXT machines/OS. Their products are a better fit in the role of 'big fish in a small pond' of the NeXT and then Mac worlds. Also, the Windows world has never valued the kind of craftsmanship Omni puts into their products... it's much more of a corporate market where managers and purchasing departments decide which products win.
- wdr1 7y agoTrue, but sometimes what got you here, won't get you there.
- lonelappde 7y agoThat's fine. A 30year career doing what you love on your own terms is a winning life.
- Traster 7y agoThe flip side is that I'm never ever going to use a diagramming tool that isn't compatible with windows. Even if it were great, the fact I can't use it on my company workstation? Useless. Or even if I happened to have a mac workstation - being unable to share the source files with colleagues? It's dead on arrival. So basically it's a great diagramming tool so long as you work at a company that exclusively uses Macs. Which there really aren't many of. It's basically a diagramming tool for employees of Apple. Who, by the way, produce their own similar (less good) tools. The productivity tools? Fine, you don't need to be able to share that. But Omnigraffle is juts a bizarre decision.
