Likelihood to Recommend Ceros is fantastic for companies who can afford it. It's not ideal for startups who don't have the budget for it. If your company or agency is interested in creating interactive content, but you don't have the skill sets in-house to develop or code them properly, Ceros is for you
Read full review A solo developer or small team that wants to integrate development, feature planning and ui design in a single app can find a lot of value in using Figma, since the FigJam whiteboard and UI editor are in the same app. Business plans and software features can be mapped out on FigJam and then implemented in the UI editor, that way there is reduced context switching and teams can operate smoothly without having to toggle between multiple apps.
Read full review Pros Easy to use and adopt user interface. If you know basic Photoshop, you can use this. Encouraging roadmap - the product has gotten better every year. The company obviously listens to client feedback. Smart, dedicated client team - always checking in, comes with new ideas, generally nice people. We always love our meetings with them! Read full review As a visual designer, I spend 90% of my working time in Figma. So, as a design tool, Figma is mature and feature-rich. It covers all the basic needs and provides extras, such as simple prototyping and the ability to use external plugins. Collaboration: It’s very easy to work together on the same file in Figma. You can easily brainstorm together or use Figma as a shared screen. Smartness of components: Figma provides many adaptability options for components that allow building very flexible and scalable layouts.

I think the inverse should be the default. Sometimes it struggles to import old sketch files - no clue how to make this better, but its frustrating Read full review Likelihood to Renew It's by far the best tool and I feel delighted using it every day.
Read full review Usability It's so simple to use! I have no background in UI design but basic designing and I was able to learn this software Figma within 3-5 days. There are tons of tutorials available on Youtube from so many popular YouTubers in the space, you can just go through them and start designing.
Read full review Support Rating Our CSMs have always been 100% and their support team typically responds within an hour or two. Their design/build team also worked with us on perfecting several experiences and are always mindful of how a project is going. One of their designers didn't really understand one of our requests and the project took more rounds of revisions than in previous projects, but they rectified the issue and the project came out well in the end. That outcome probably only happened in the time it did due to our CSM consistently checking in and getting feedback throughout the project - unfortunately, not something that happens enough with all our partners.
Read full review I haven't used their support lately but in the past, they had a chat that I used often. They often responded in a few hours and were able to give a satisfactory solution. I would imagine it's less personal now but the community has expanded drastically so there are more resources out there to self serve with a bit of Google magic.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Ceros takes what would be difficult to accomplish in the Adobe suite of products and makes it easy. When it comes to user experience, user interface and customization options, Ceros is a much better alternative than Adobe. However, Adobe is the trusted name and some may be more comfortable with Adobe products
Read full review Much more intuitive,
Adobe XD fails to keep up with the newest market changes thus it did not let us stay on top of the technology. The big plus of Figma is that the majority of our clients worked with it, whereas it was not the case with
Adobe XD . You can get similar results working with both, but the process will be different in Figmas favour
Read full review Return on Investment Increased win rate during presentations. Elevated content appearance. Engaged audience more. Read full review Negative -- the Figma mirror app is quite poorly connected with Figma itself, hence when we were conducting user testing, we got some incorrect data. Positive -- time spent for discussion because we have something visual to base on discussion on Negative -- it's difficult to find files and comments, which is a lost of time Read full review ScreenShots
