It's Edraw Max, and it's one of those flowchart-diagramming tools, not unlike ConceptDraw or Visio 2007. To quote one of the comments, "this is what Visio 2007 should have been". It does all kinds of diagrams and has built-in templates for software design, from the old flowcharts and Booch diagrams to UML and SQL tables.
The interface is a dead-ringer for the new Office 2007 stuff. In fact, I think it's a little smoother than Office 2007's interface. It's definitely a big step above the cheesy knockoffs like AutoCAD 2009 and Adobe's CS4 suite, although in deference to Adobe, they're still in beta and are trying to make something that also looks right on the Mac.
Note to Microsoft: If you want your shiny new Office interface to catch on and not end up with an ugly hodgepodge of imitators, you'll need to let developers hook into it. Remember how easy it was to make something with MFC that looked and worked seamlessly with Office? Nice toolbars and MDI and suchlike? That's not gonna happen again if everyone has to reinvent that wheel.
If you do any kind of software design, you should have this tool. It's normally $95 (which is still rather good), but you can get it for free today only. The magical unlock code is in the readme included with the download. Just run the program, find the "register" button and enter the unlock code.
No registrations. No spyware. Just free. Today only.
