Sketch works in a similar way to programs like Figma and InVision. Sketch is a mac only program so it works well in a mac environment. Tools like Figma and InVision have better collaboration tools and are both cross-platform. Sketch is easier to use and more intuitive for most …
I would say that it's different enough from the others that it has its place right alongside them. Nothing beats Sketch in terms of its ability to quickly wireframe.
I think Sketch it better than Illustrator in a lot of respects. I feel like Sketch allows for more accuracy and precision. I do think it lacks in its collaboration. Unlike Figma it doesn't allow live collaboration.
Sketch's approachable UI allowed those using outdated technologies to transition efficiently. Among its peers, Sketch performs comparably with most prototyping tools. It falls behind compared to those that can better handle movement, like InVision Studio, which combines …

Chose Sketch
The interfaces of Adobe and Figma are very similar, but I would say that Figma's collaboration tool is great with onboard live collaboration. For Sketch, that is a separate payment. XD is great for free usage and for Windows collaboration, but some parts of the collaboration …

Sketch works well against any UI design apps and the pricing is also affordable.
We went from designing websites in Photoshop to designing in Sketch, and it is certainly much quicker and easier to design in Sketch, and you're more easily able to make sure that our designs are exact in Sketch, as far as spacing exact pixels. I have never used AdobeXD and …
Sketch is great for creating digital assets quickly and easily. It is simple to figure out and easy to use. It has a very clean user interface and isn't a resource hog like Adobe products tend to be. Its export feature is fantastic, generating multiple asset sizes/resolutions …
At the time of evaluation, Sketch provided a full feature design tool at the cost we needed. We also had required integration with Abstract, Zeplin, and InVision. Our design team already had familiarity with the Sketch interface. these considerations made it an easy decision to …
Sketch works perfectly well with Adobe Illustrator, you can seamlessly copy and paste vector artworks and open PDF files. It also [works] very well with prototyping tools such as proto.io and Bravo App. At ExMachina we also selected Sketch for its handover capabilities and …
Sketch is much better for web design than Adobe products. It's easier to learn and use, and it's a much more efficient way to hand off design files to developers. However, given a choice between Figma and Sketch, I'd choose Figma because of its cloud file storage and …
We use Sketch for its clarity. While Figma and InVision Studio have some "google-doc-escrow" collaboration tools, I've found them hard to make pixel-perfect designs, which is necessary while working with IT and clients.
Illustrator may have been the first of these vector-based …
Sketch eliminates all the complexity of Photoshop and it simplifies the screen design process for web, UI, UX designers. It is also much faster software with capabilities to make responsive design quickly.

Chose Sketch
I was a big Fireworks user when it was discontinued by Adobe. At the time most people used Photoshop, but I've never liked Photoshop for web designs because it was built for photo editing, not vector graphics. I've heard Illustrator might be a pretty good alternative now, but …
Sketch is the industry leader when it comes to visual design for mobile apps and websites. However, its competitors are catching up very quickly and starting to offer features that Sketch doesn't have. While I think Sketch is still the best visual design software out there for …
At the time of purchase, Sketch was the industry standard. It's affordable and we liked it wasn't tied to a subscription model. We're on Macs so it being an OSX exclusive wasn't a deterrent. Sketch has set the bar high, but there is a massive amount of competition in this …
Again, I would say that Sketch stacks up very well against similar Adobe products in the field. I get the sense, just from the little bit I've used it, that It may not be as robust as some of the Adobe products. However, for my needs (fundamental to the middle of the road use), …
I think they are both similar and different. I can generally choose an Adobe product when I'm looking for a specific end result. I use Sketch a lot for layout, UI and UX design cause it just takes all the frills out of the equation while giving me an equal end product. They are …
Figma is great in a team setting, but Sketch seems to have far more tools that are aligned to the fast-iteration work we do. It also lacks a number of the plugins that make our work with Sketch so ideal. If we decided on Figma, we would definitely have to create more …
Although there's a lot of overlap, we use these different platforms for different purposes. InVision allows us to create more robust prototypes, Zeplin is a better tool for design/dev handoffs, and Marvel is great for basic wireframes. None of these tools beat Sketch when it …
Sketch had been great and improved a lot in the past, but so has Adobe. If you are going to start new, it's better to plan long term and based on needs see what suits more. Figma is relying a lot on new technologies which are not bug-free, but that may be the future of design.
Ultimately I did not select Sketch, but for a while, it was the software of choice over Photoshop or Illustrator. Photoshop was never a good fit for prototyping, as it's made for intense photo editing and has a lot of UI debt that's built up. It also facilitated a particular …
