    Frontify AG
    Well suited to organization starting their journey of design system creation. It provides a ready to go foundation that requires minimum effort to set up and get going. It may be limited if scaling into thousands of design elements and multiple users - we have not tried at scale of more that 10's of users.

    Frontify AG
    • I believe having an agency option would be great so that one could manage and build multiple brands for multiple clients.
    • Having sections for voice and personality would be great.

    We've invested time building our own hosted interface, and recently begun exploring Figma for design system management too. The benefit of Frontify is it's easy public access. The downfall is integration with other systems required in the UX, Design, Product Management, and Development processes - something Figma supports well.

    Plytix might be the small dog, but it has big fight! The above solutions were too big, expensive and too entrenched in their specific workflows. Plytix is super nimble and you can tailor it to meet your specific needs.
