An example of a great use of the prototyping feature is that you can all be in a meeting room, share the url and all click through the mobile app prototype on your phone. This creates a much more natural way of experiencing how a product is going to behave in the real world, rather than on a big screen.

InVision is well suited for design reviews and immersing yourself in the experience of an app-to-be. As a Product Manager, it's difficult to take abstract concepts, user pain points, and business needs, and produce a vision for an app without a visual aid to communicate a vision. InVIsion offers PMs, designers, and developers the opportunity to sketch a vision, communicate about it with inline commenting, and shareable with other stakeholders.

InVision is best suited for when you need a simple prototype for quick feedback. It is also useful for wireframing, creating user flows, and collaborating with non-designers. It is less appropriate when needing a robust prototype with animation/complex transitions.

InVision is great for copy pasting screenshots of logo variations and reacting to them. InVision is not great for designing the logos, or designing anything with a lot of detail. Freehand is also great for assembling low fidelity wireframes/sketches, but not appropriate for creating high fidelity mockups. When you need any quick, rough designs, freehand is great. The more detail you need, the less appropriate freehand becomes.

When the main focus is to provide support on how discoveries are performed and translated into actual raw flows and wireframes, that is a great experience and really quick when needed to be performed on the fly and helps to validate ideas quite quickly. On the other hand, when it comes to final flows, based on its lack of shapes, I reckon other tools perform better

InVision has low-friction and easy-to-use features for basic design workflows. Most teams could get up to speed with InVision quite easily, but the problems start when the features run out and you realize you're paying for more users than you had budgeted for. InVision's access and billing structure makes it hard to get out of if you decide to use other tools instead. After basic usage, you will be wanting more, but InVision's product has had slow release over the last six years. New products are promised and rarely delivered. The people at InVision are great and the tool is good enough, but you end up filling the gaps with other paid-for tools.

It's great for when you need to share a design vision with a large group of individuals and it makes collaborating virtually a lot easier. It is also good for user testing prototypes in person and virtually. I have not used the InVision freehand feature often but it seems more limited than other platforms like it.

Figma is currently the leader in collaborative designing and prototyping, in my opinion. InVision, Sketch, and other tools can get the job done but are lagging behind in terms of ease of use and capabilities. InVision works well for sharing links to mockups with clients without internal conversation and comments being visible.

Rapid prototyping and user testing for ideas are so easy things with InVision. You may speed up discovery process with the prototyping while use the same tool for finalized designs an design specs to guide engineering team. It enables team to scale asynchronous communication through instant collaboration on the designs and prototypes.

All in all it is a really good tool for creatives and marketers. It can be used to get in the weeds and do all of the work that needs to get done across all phases of the work, but also to share the work and solicit feedback across internal and external teams.

InVision is a great tool for marketing agencies that need a robust tool that is easier for the team and client to use. It's great for showing work, especially for complex projects like building websites. It uses boards to keep work organized across multiple projects and clients. It's an incredibly helpful tools for teams that work collaboratively on projects.

InVision is great if you have a relatively small design team. It can get quite expensive with larger teams as there is a monthly plan with a limit on team members. However, the tool is definitely worth it. In addition to this, InVision has a great design blog that provides helpful tips to teams with any kind of expertise.

Useful to demonstrate the flows and how the user interacts with an interface. Quickly design either wireframes or high fidelity designs and import them into InVision and share with others. It helps the entire team play with it and feel the experience rather than listening to a designer narrating the experience.

InVision is well suited for creating clickable prototypes. It is very easy to wire up and add complexity to the prototype. These prototypes can be used for review and approvals, user experience testing and validation designs.

InVision allows you to collaborate, experiment, and test much more effectively and efficiently. When updates need to be made, it is quick and seamless.

InVision seems to be an industry standard and works reasonably well. It's at least worth evaluating during your research for that reason. I haven't searched the landscape, but there are plenty of ways the interaction between designers and developers can be improved, and InVision doesn't seem to be taking advantage of them. I'd love to see if there's a better tool out there.

One of the best tools around for prototyping for non-technical users. Designers love InVision, especially those who design for screens. A responsive (web) app or website can be easily demoed by a graphic designer in InVision. It makes it possible to gather feedback quickly from managers and improve on that after that.

If you need a helpful way to share web designs with clients, as well as internal stakeholders and are looking to capture feedback, InVision is a great tool for that. It also has more advanced features to go deeper with animations as well. The platform can definitely scale as your needs change and you don't have to use all of the features to get your value from the expense.

InVision is well-suited for many design scenarios where someone needs to portray a realistic user workflow through a clickable prototype using a solid, reliable, web-based platform. It’s an excellent tool to use for collaboration with stakeholders, as it includes commenting and tagging features that enable targeted conversations to occur. It is less useful in situations where it is necessary to include many types of animations and transitions in the prototype (limited functionality here), when there is a limited budget (it is rather pricey), and when you want to use one tool for creating mockups and prototypes (you must upload your own designs to the app from another app, then prototype).

InVision freehand is a great tool for brainstorming. It is great for collaboration in general. For example: I give permission to a number of people to access the prototype - they can then access it when it is convenient for them. When they make a comment - I get notified so nothings gets missed.

Useful for creating a design and sharing them with peers, creating several different projects with sets of designs, and quickly accessing your projects archive. Less useful for showing the functionality of several screens with heavy connection and particular actions needed to transition from one to another.
