With Microsoft Visio 2019, you can draw diagrams, which is why a lot of people view it as a drawing tool. However, it is not accurate to think of it as simply a tool for drawing diagrams because it is more capable than that. Microsoft Visio 2019 is one of Microsoft’s products, but the original developer is another company named Shapeware Corporation. Microsoft decided to acquire it in 2000 and has been continuing its development since then.
