MarvelApp
Marvel is a very strong tool in scenarios where designers seek to quickly create simple prototypes on their desktops using a simple, intuitive interface. It offers “just enough” functionality to create somewhat realistic designs to present to stakeholders and other designers. However, there’s a limit to how “realistic” those designs can be, given that Marvel has somewhat limited functionality around animations. Marvel is not a strong option for those who want to create very complex prototypes with many animations, or for those who want to edit prototypes on their tablet or phone. Marvel is a jewel for simplicity but starts to be difficult to use when creating complicated designs. For creating more complicated prototypes, I would recommend a more robust tool, such as Axure.

I only use UXPressia for my journey maps, personas, and empathy maps. I have been using this tool for years and I see no reason to go elsewhere.

Cons
MarvelApp
  • I really miss being able to duplicate, make a copy of the prototype I'm working on. Sometimes, I want to make a comparison with detail changes and without being able to duplicate it is difficult.
  • Compared to other similar services, I feel the animations could be more fluid and smoother.
  • It could have more free sophisticated icons and images.

  • The only issue I sometimes face is that they are in a different time zone, so personalized replies sometimes take longer; however, they do have very helpful articles that usually answer my questions without having to direct me to someone

Alternatives Considered
MarvelApp
Ultimately, InVision was just a better fit for our company's needs. It's probably faster to create prototypes using Marvel, but InVision's collaboration features (comments, notes, etc.) are much more robust, which was helpful for our large team spread across multiple continents. InVision also offers more advanced features, and Marvel felt a little too limited for our overall business needs.

UXPressia delivers a very visually appealing product and I like that we can brand our work. Everything we have created looks professional, it's easy to read and understand, and we're proud to pass it around the office.

Return on Investment
MarvelApp
  • It helped me improve my productivity. It took me lot of time to manually design mockups earlier when I used Adobe Photoshop to do it.
  • Because of quickly creating mockups, now I provide my clients with more than 4-5 options which is welcomed by clients and make them happy.
  • Definitely the ROI and improved, because of time saved and happy clients.
