Data Flow Diagram Tool

The Data Flow Diagram tool is a visual way to represent the data processing, to model and visualize the flow of data through a computer system and functional requirements for a designed system. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a multifunctional software. Being extended with the Data Flow Diagrams solution, it became also a powerful Data Flow Diagram tool useful for drawing the Data Flow Diagrams of any complexity.

DFDs are successfully used when studying the business processes or systems involving a transfer of data. They are also a good business modeling tool to describe the business events and interactions, the physical systems involving the storage and transfer of data.
