Abstract vs. Honey

• Large teams with dedicated design operations support
• UX managers that want a facilitated workflow for their teams
• Disciplined teams of individual contributors that want to adopt a process in their UI workflow
• Cross-discipline teams that want a central collaboration space for reviewing and critiquing UI artifacts
• If your files are named "FOR-REALS_FINAL_FINAL_FINAL_Super-Important-Project (copy).sketch"
• If you're managing multiple pattern libraries

If you are buying online, Honey may be able to save you money. By using it as a Chrome extension, this can happen automatically. In recent months some new coupon searching services have arrived (Capital One), but to me, Honey is the "gold standard" by which others are compared.

• It is always there on the Chrome bar, which makes sure I use it even if i don't think about it
• It does the searching for discount codes for me, which can save time and stress when digging through emails or trying to google for codes.

• Asset exports are not as great as Zeplin and others.
• Filtering within files.

• I have trouble turning it off - its too automatic
• Sometimes the competitor's product (Capital One) finds other discounts
• Could offer to find discounts on more online purchases.

as already explained this software only does branching... the rest is really poor and basic

Abstract has a difficult learning curve. If a feature-branch workflow is new to you, then it will take some getting used to. They make a lot of updates to the interface and these feature releases get ahead of their documentation. They rely heavily on an excellent customer support team and are present on various Slack channels to help design professionals with issues.

Abstract by nature is complex and has to respond to whatever changes in Sketch. So there are frequent issues. Support can be slow to respond and are not always helpful, but they are quick to find and patch the bugs. Overall, it's not the best support, but it hasn't been detrimental.

I purchased and administer Abstract. It was requested by our design department who evaluated it.
