How to Use the Database Design Templates in Creately

  • Choose a template that suits your needs

    Pick a database design template that fits your project, such as an ER diagram, a relational schema, or a data model for an online store, school, or hospital. Click 'Edit This Template' to open it and start designing your database.

  • Sign in or create a free Creately account

    Create a free account or sign in to open the template in the editor. This lets you save your database design, return to it later, and keep every change synced to your workspace.

  • Open the template and customize it

    Replace the placeholder content with your own tables and show how they relate to each other.

  • Collaborate with your team

    Give others view or edit access, gather inline comments, and resolve them without leaving the canvas. This works well for developers, database administrators, and analysts reviewing a design together.

  • Export, share, or present

    Export your database design as PDF, PNG, JPEG, or SVG, present it live, or embed or link it in your technical documentation and project specs.
