Freehand, from InVision headquartered in New York, is an online whiteboard that enables teams to plan, brainstorm, and draw together. It aims to give everyone a simple way to visually represent ideas with charts, diagrams, and drawings. Whether for mind mapping, creating a customer journey map, or drafting up an org chart, Freehand can help teams make ideas and plans visual.
Cost effectiveness and while Miro is good for collaboration and sprint and PI planning, I think its too open-ended. Easy to get lost in a board. Snagit is my go-to tool but it is not a collaborative tool. If I could combine Snagits tools with Invisions look/feel...that would be …
For real-time collaboration and whiteboarding Comparable to Mural and Miro Better and more flexible than Figma For written documentation: Different features and more limited than Google Doc Similar to Notion in editing experience but more limited in features For creating …
The two other platforms that people have tried to get us to use are Figma and Miro. Since we have been using InVision Freehand it works much better for our teams and is within the InVision environment that we are familiar with. The InVision Freehand tools and user interface are …
Honestly, Zoom and Teams don't compare for their whiteboarding. Mainly because those are glitchy and unreliable. I've tried using them in meetings and especially with Zoom (maybe because they are newer) it loads and freezes up. I like to be "on it" in meetings and can't have …
We use Miro as well and I like it also but it's been a bit more complicated to learn and doesn't fit as well in situations where we need to create and update things quickly.
I didn't select Invision Freehand. I have used Miro the most in the past and I feel like you are dragging behind what they offer. From my experience, their text editing tools are easier. They provide the ability to vote on activities. Attaching emojis to things actually works. …
I chose InVision because others on my team were already using it! I still use other alternatives, but I love the simplicity of InVision and what it allows me to do.
They seem quite similar in a lot of ways but I tend to slightly prefer Invision overall. Seems like it is easier to use and offers much of the same feature set. If it were up to me I'd probably just use InVision Freehand going forward and stop using Figma altogether.
I actually have access to all three. And I use all three for different things, though truthfully, I could probably get away with just using Figma. I'm not sure how InVision Freehand is better than Miro or Figma. But we already own it, so it has made sense for me to use it in …
InVision Freehand is closing the gap and adding all the functionalities that some of these tools provide separately. In the race towards a one-stop digital design ecosystem, InVision Freehand is well poised to deliver and connect where others can't. I hope that with the news of …
The sharing/accessibility of the mocks. It’s hard for someone not on the design team to see their mocks unless the links were shared but this might be by design or license based.
Miro (formerly Realtime Board) is the original product concept for this tool and I used it for 3-4 years for product development. Invision is aesthetically a carbon copy of the tool but lacks in fine usability controls. We actually didn't choose Freehand, it just came as an …
The collaboration in a real-time manner is incredible at InVision Freehand, and arguably the best I've worked with to date. With the way work is getting done today, top-notch tools for discussion, alignment, and idea generation make a huge impact on the bottom line & the …
I have found that between freehand InVision Freehand, Miro, MURAL and FigJam, each product does certain things differently. Some of those products execute certain features better than others. One benefit to InVision freehand is that it's sometimes nice to have all of your messy …
Freehand is the least polished of the bunch. It doesn't instantly make your thoughts and design look sexy. It doesn't open up your designs to be edited live, inspected, and sliced up for export. It doesn't let you interact with flow charts, like showing or hiding long pieces of …
I used FigJam for a while and really liked it. It's been almost 9 months in size I've used it so I can't remember precise details, but at the time, I remember it being a little more 'sturdy' - it could handle more (bigger files). They are comparable products. Our organization …
