![]() First, it takes time and effort to move projects. Migration for a design team, just like IT teams, can be painful for several reasons. No wonder, eventually we were disappointed with such flow of using million extra tools next to Sketch and decided to start looking for a new bride. These small things were taking designers’ precious time off from the creative process. After you do design in Sketch you push to the cloud, later on going to Invision to look for comments while jumping back and forth and when you solve issues again pushing to Sympli. The entire flow was also tedious since you have to go through all your services supporting Sketch and again a time-consuming issue. The app-to-cloud upload time from was unbearable, sometimes you had to wait 10 minutes before the program saves docs to the cloud properly as it doesn’t have conflict management designs would even go missing the next day. Recently Sketch had raised high hopes for correcting their essential shortcoming by releasing Sketch cloud and Sketch for Teams was released. When a design tool requires so many other services to be functional, it is obvious it is not functional. Sometimes also Anima to create smart adaptive layouts. While the tool itself was great for initial design work, it was really coming short on collaboration and sharing side.Ī bunch of additional external services to support sharing and collaboration were needed to make a flow reasonable: we hosted designs in our laptops or inside Dropbox to make sharing working files better for sharing spec and handing designs to developers we used Sympli for file versioning Abstract and for collaborating on designs – Invision. However, after weeks of consideration, our team chose Figma and in this article, I will tell why we thought Figma is a far better option than any other UI/UX Design tool in the market.Ĭoming right after the era of Photoshop, Sketch became the ultimate UI Designers’ tool. This time, our choice fluctuated between Framer X, Figma, Adobe XD and Sketch. ![]() ![]() We saw this even before, but especially as the pandemic kicked in with rising remote collaboration needs, we decided to look for another tool. Sketch has been the industry standard for a long time but the reality is that competition has caught up to them, considering their lack of convenient collaboration and sharing features. It impacts the workflow, the overall experience and the collaboration with the whole team and the clients – it is the most important tool designers work with. Choosing a new tool for product designers is a big deal.
