It really depends what use you want for the model. If it's use to to let you understand the domain, or communicate to the guy next to you, a pen and paper are probably the best tool.
If you want to put it in a presentation, then Visio is good enough. ( For example, some of the OMG UML specs use Visio. )
If you want to perform more complicated checking and transformation ( unusual for a Domain Model ) or link it to a later implementation model, then a fully fledged model base UML tool.
IMHO, It's ill-designed.
Unfortunately, I haven't used a UML tool that was an easy to use and intuitive as I'd like ( the closest being OmniGraffle which had the ease of use for creating diagrams, but no UML model behind it ).
Problem
Could someone please suggest a tool to create a Domain Model diagram? Some details: - I am running Windows at the moment - A tool is free - It's not a pencil and a sheet of paper - It should be easy to use, i.e. I don't want to spend more than 5 minutes for a relatively simple diagram - I hate MS Visio. IMHO, It's ill-designed.
