FigJam vs. Nuclino

If you're working in small product teams, like triads, and already using Figma, this is a no brainer for white boarding, quick/fast sketches, wireframing, collaborative doodling ... it gets less appropriate with large teams, infrequent. IMO, due to the way in which they price, it's better to keep the inner circle small-ish.

it is best for game development, it has good product development features and workflow management. you shouldn't use it for heavy database keeping,

• One file, auto updated, no need to get latest
• Easy to preview
• Lack of client is benefit to some (not me)

• Nuclino is very easy to write and edit on - the text editor functions are simple yet effective
• Nuclino is very simple to understand - there aren't pages and pages of menus and endless functions. It cuts down a knowledge base to what is required
• Nuclino is reasonably priced
• The graph view is a great piece of design

• It misses easy-to-use pre sets of diagrams. The ones presented seem to be not native and hard to use. Miro is a good benchmark.
• Navegating throught projects in the main page is confusing, specially when people are not admin users.
• It should suggest ways of organizing the pages designers do, specially when the project is big and have many pages and sections.
• It could have, for example, a draft version for every page, so that one can hide it when they finish the work, but can open it whenever something needs to be modified, versioning the job.

• switching overe workspaces is bit tedious at the moment
• more granular control over what users can edit inside workspace -> specific items or any item under a specific collection
• currently its not clear who edited an item last -> footer that updates each time item has been edited and by whom
• support for smartsheets. only because we use them ;)
• on prem version? (easier to sell this to my boss)

I don't use it often, because the organization I work in uses a different environment on a commo basis. This is rather used between the designers, who prototype the solutions in Figma - they just have it as a workbook/notebook for their ideas. However, if those need to be shared with stakeholders or other organization members, the designers are expected to use a different environment.

I love Nuclino's usability. The layout is clean, simple, easy to follow, and bright. I like that there is a read-only account option so that less-tech savvy people can still use it and they won't need to worry about deleting key information from the database. Similarly, I like the features that allow multiple contributors to have the same features to edit.

The Nuclino knowledge base is good. Most answers to your questions can be found there. I didn't need to contact support at all.

FigJam works best in pair with Figma, as it allows you to keep track of your project in one place, supporting all phases of the process. The functionality is more intuitive, quick, and efficient. Visually, I also prefer it more —it’s more enjoyable and playful, making the experience much more engaging.

Nuclino is a great software. We have not really used anything like it so there is nothing to compare it to, but it has been awesome.

• FigJam saves a lot of time ... it's nice to have all my visual notes/sketches within Figma itself where a lot of design work lives
• The project organization and other features contribute to the ease of answering that age old question ... "where can I find that mockup?"
• Dev Mode is pretty cool. Not many use it, so some designers may spend unnecessary time spec'ing out things that no one will appreciate, let alone look at.

Incentivized

• We're able to more quickly develop processes and try things out
• Our internal how-to guides are a real time saver, especially when paired with AI search
• It's easier to collaborate on lightweight documents
• Software architectures are easier to find and document
