[InVision] provides the ability to iterate really quickly, in fact, it is so intuitive that can be applied on live wireframe designing, while the ideas are being scratched and stormed from the team in a single discovery session, as well as allowing and giving access to the whole organization to the final outcome

We went with InVision because we were already bought into that ecosystem. We have since decided to move to Figma, as we were not receiving the features we needed from InVision and the associated tools (Whimsical, Sketch, Abstract, and Zeplin). The ROI of Figma allows us to free up budget, reduce onboarding time, and focus design workflows into a single tool rather than multiple tools and workflows.

InVision can be a powerful tool when paired with Sketch and other platforms like Freehand. However, Figma is currently the industry leader in terms of functionality and usability for collaborative UI design and prototyping. Invision's sharing and prototyping features are its strength, but Figma's design capabilities are a little bit better.

Main difference is InVision's easy to use prototyping capability. When it is compared to Marvel and Axure RP, while it has less capabilities on tools it is more robust than both. I believe Figma is just a new and upgraded version of InVision where you could do everything online (wireframes, prototypes, etc.).

InVision is a bit limited overall compared to other programs like Figma, Photoshop, Illustrator and XD. At the time we selected InVision they were one of the leaders and introduced a lot of new features that were beneficial. However now we've moved back to many of the Adobe platforms as they have updated their capabilities and have a more robust system.

We only tested out using Adobe XD for similar uses and found it to be more challenging to fit within our processes. It didn't have as robust a set of capabilities as InVision and wasn't as easy to use enterprise wide. I recall also having issues with working with Sketch.

InVision was the best tool for our team. It has the features that best fit our process but is also flexible enough for make it work in various situations where visuals are a core component. We've been using InVision for over 5 years and we're not likely to move to another solution anytime soon. Some of the other tools evaluated at the time had to many other features that we were solving with other platforms. InVision was just the right fit for us and our work style. The team has found a great flow with the tool and can work efficiently to make sure work is moved quickly, feedback is addressed and the client is happy.

InVision is a great tool to use and well worth the price. However, if you're looking for some variety, UXPin and Figma are worth looking into too. While UXPin may be a tad simplistic in the design ability, Figma is a great competitor to InVision. Both tools are worth looking into when looking for the next tool for your design team to use.

InVision's design is much more polished and seamless due to its apps on mobile and web. They are very easy to learn and gather feedback compared to Sketch or Principle. Although these features are quickly coming to the other apps, InVision has an upper hand at the moment with their new tool InVision studio.

Truthfully, while we have looked at others, InVision has the name recognition in the web design community and a tight integration with Sketch which is what was important to us. We have not seriously considered others, but may in the future as our needs change. This is our first prototyping tool, so we wanted to go with an industry leader.

Compared to other tools, InVision is a very solid tool with a great reputation and prototyping functionalities to back it up. InVision was the first prototyping tool we purchased, and it’s served us really well. However, more and more design tools are now also providing prototyping functionalities, which makes using InVision less and less attractive. It’s rather convenient and time-saving to use the same tool for creating designs and prototypes, rather than two separate tools. We are aware that InVision has started to provide some design tools—however, they are below par compared to other apps, such as Sketch.

Balsamiq is a better tool for interactive prototyping and dynamic transition. InVision is definitely better for handling various designs, separated by projects and shared with different access levels across multiple organizations.

Other design tools have been creating their own prototyping functionality, which has made InVision less valuable over time. It is much more convenient to use the same tool for both design and prototyping, because it removes the unnecessary steps of exporting, importing, and syncing. InVision has tried to solve this by creating their own design tools. However, their design tools just aren't up to par with other design tools.

InVision works seamlessly and easily when sharing and requesting comments from others. Other products I've used like Balsamiq and Dropbox (earlier versions) provided online displays of work, but no easy way to collect feedback or quickly update. InVision provides enterprise level options that allows everyone in our organization to be involved as needed without separate licenses and software downloads on individual machines.

I actually haven't used anything that's similar to InVision, so can't compare. I'm not even sure there is anything out there that can actually compare to InVision. It's an ideal tool for any designer that wants to improve client/team feedback. I highly recommend it and look forward to seeing new features added.

As the industry leader, XD and Figma have had some catching up to do. I think now InVision will have to innovate to hold these products off. Several are doing what made InVision famous, and in some instances do it even better. There is an insane amount of competition and saturation in this sector.
