MagicDraw UML: A useful utility for business process and system modelling

MagicDraw UML is a handy business process and system modelling application that lets you create UML diagrams, but also Object Oriented systems and databases. Organizations using UML diagrams can track the overall workflow of their production.

If you’re running a business that involves using invoices, receipts, orders and other formal documents, UML diagrams can be of help, when used correctly, of course. However, they can be useful in a wide array of domains like programming, development, engineering and production.

MagicDraw UML was created for programmers, software analysts, and QA engineers. It’s capable to generate code from existing classes and correlations, helping users to create quality applications much faster. This complete software solution offers support for UML2 meta-model, an implementation of the UML based on EMF, created for data storage and the most popular programming languages, such as C++, C#, .NET and Java.

Compared to other UML apps, MagicDraw has an exceptional code engineering mechanism, database schema modelling and support for reverse engineering. Also, it makes it very easy to deploy a Software Development Life Cycle envinroment, and thanks to its Teamwork integration, multiple developers can work on the same model simultaneously.

To continue, the application lets users create a variety of Use Case and activity diagrams, verify if the overall business process model is complete and correct, customize UML diagrams and retrieve specs of model elements as tables. Specific style properties can be applied to existing diagram elements, but you can also define individual styles for stereotypes and access all the UML meta-model classes, among others.
