Best free diagramming software out there. UML/Flowcharts/Modelling is fast and intuitive. Adding or changing colours of each node is simple and efficient. It would be nice if we could set default font size, type, stroke size/colour too.

Doesn't add much functionality to the already existing interfaces (website / offline app), but there is one critical one. The ability to "embed" diagrams into your Google Doc. Now you can go and edit the original diagram and merely refresh the diagrams in your doc. Very nice - avoids having to export diagrams to PNG and re-import them to GDocs again and agian.

I like this a lot; but sharing functionality for real-time collaboration would be ideal. Could this be done?

Does this add-on have anything to do with using 'Google Drawing' or is it a completely separate drawing environment? Thx, I do love it.

Helpful in creating workflow diagrams but it has extremely poor interoperability with Google products (Docs and Slides). Every time I open up Draw.io I am prompted to sign in and re-authorize my Google account. Likewise every time I try to save, I am prompted to reauthorize. In addition to that, there is no direct integration to Google slides which means the diagram has to be saved elsewhere and then imported. TL/DR: good tool for creating diagrams/workflows, poor integration with Google products.
