The Standard and Professional editions both share the same interface, but the latter has additional templates for more advanced diagrams and layouts as well as unique functionality that makes it easy for users to connect their diagrams to a number of data sources and display the information graphically. The Premium edition has three additional diagram types with intelligent rules support, validation and subprocess (diagram breakdown) support. Microsoft acquired Visio Corporation in 2000. Enterprise Network Tools, an add-on product enabling automated network and directory services diagramming, and Visio Network Center, a website where users could locate the latest network documentation content and exact-replica network equipment shapes from 500 leading manufacturers, were released alongside version 2002. The former has been discontinued, while the latter's shape-finding features are now integrated into the program itself. Visio 2007 was released on November 30, 2006. |
