We use InVision for multiple applications. We share our initial mockups with our clients and we mainly use it to prototype and demo our dynamic prototypes to our customers. The most beneficial feature for us is that clickable interactive prototype. Another helpful thing is for our developers, there is a way to display what styling has been used in the design that is easily copied to code.

We use InVision as a solution for UX artifacts, including journey maps, mockups, and interactive wireframes. Specifically, our UX designers take the lead with designs and share these designs with relevant stakeholders. We review designs among UX and Product folks as well as embed InVision artifacts into user stories. Often, after concepts are validated internally, we share InVision assets directly with customers for their review. Our work spans various enterprise apps in the business.

We used InVision for prototypes in user testing, wireframing concepts, DSM, collaboration, and design handoff. It helps address usability issues, makes inspecting design files easy for engineering, and has a well-organized DSM that can be auto-updated through Sketch. Freehand makes collaborating/brainstorming remotely easy and files can be shared with a public link.

We use InVision for clickable prototyping, high and low-fidelity wireframing, as well as brand development. We address problems surrounding branding, design, usability, and function in mostly web-based products. Our goals include improving customer satisfaction and loyalty by researching, building, or redesigning products that meet business requirements and are both easy to learn and use, while simultaneously pleasing the users.

It is currently used in plenty of different ways, but the main focus it has within the product area is to provide support on how discoveries are performed and translated into actual flows and wireframes. That support comes from its different tools to diagram ideas on the fly, as well as it provides a set of multiple focused shapes that are a great match to draw wireframes and validate ideas

InVision is used by our product, design, and engineering teams. It is also used by key stakeholders. InVision provides basic prototyping, project communication, collaboration (Freehand), and handoff (Inspect) capabilities. It fills the communication gaps at the project level between designers and stakeholders. It also extends the capabilities of product mangers and promotes real-time collaboration.

We use InVision with Sketch to prototype the software we are developing. We use it to share with different stakeholders across many different teams across the whole company. The development team also uses the InVision inspect feature to get design details and content of the design when they are writing the code.

We use InVision on occasion to share mockups and prototypes with clients, as well as to review and provide comments and feedback on design mockups. Our design team often uses it to share wireframes with the rest of the team and include comments about their thought process. We will go back and forth in an internal round of feedback this way before sharing with client. We can easily choose to hide comments before sharing so that our internal discussion is not visible to outside parties.

InVision is positioned to be a main tool for wireframes and final designs of the features that we develop. As a product manager, it is key to have an easy to use tool that enables you to communicate with engineering and collaborate with design easily.

We use InVision to house so much of our creative process and assets. This is done at various steps throughout the internal creative process. We use the freehand function for ideation and sketching out plans and then the boards and prototypes are used to house more work in process and finished products. We also use it to manage work internal as well as sharing with our clients. Finally, it also serves as a repository for all final, approved assets across a number of different clients and projects.

InVision is a key piece of software for our marketing agency and is used for any visual work we produce. We use InVision to present creative to clients that includes websites, marketing collateral, digital advertising. It's an essential tool for any service offering where creative needs to be shown to the team and clients for approval. We also use InVision to house brand assets like logos, colors, fonts, etc.

InVision has been a great tool for our company. It has allowed our UI/UX team to quickly translate designs for concepts to usable prototypes. Being able to build clickable designs that envision user experiences has helped us create beautiful interfaces for our users while easily collaborating within our team to collect feedback and improve upon every iteration of the created designs.

InVision is used as a quick prototyping tool to demonstrate the user experience design to the development teams and help them understand. We usually create the InVision prototypes to also use as a part of usability testing with users on new features for the software. This helps us get early feedback on the design and correct them before spending too many resources on developing bad products. In terms of business value, it saves us a lot of money to use InVision over developing the entire application, then realizing that the design was not the most optimal. Its very simple interface allows anyone to use it with minimal learning.

InVision is being used by my organization as a prototype platform. Designers use it to create prototypes that can be utilized for client review and approval. These prototypes are also used for demos and user experience feedback.

InVision prototypes allow for quick creation of very impressive, rich, and editable prototypes that increase agile development and project efficiency. This in turn, allows my team to iterate quickly, elevate quality, and ship fast.

Designers at Calendly use InVision to hand off feature designs to developers. User stories that are defined and ready for implementation typically include InVision links. They also use InVision to share early prototypes/sketches with product leadership.

The web software is mainly used by our Digital Media department, which is part of the larger IT organization. We operate globally and use InVision to make clickable prototypes of our app concepts. It allows us to operate efficiently and create testable prototypes fast, thus saving us a lot of time compared to not having this tool. All in all, we are very positive about having this!

Our creative team is using InVision as a prototyping tool to demonstrate website design concepts and layout to clients for web development projects. We can simulate some of the interactivity with the designs, as well as easily share the create with clients over a link. It is also helpful to capture important notes from the design/UX team for the development team. Prior to InVision, we shared PDFs with clients which were flat, and didn't always load properly. InVision is helping us better showcase our conceptual designs and give clients a feel for what to expect with their new website.

Our design team uses InVision primarily to create sharable prototypes for feedback. We do this by first creating wireframes in Sketch, Balsamiq, or Figma, then importing them into InVision. Then we add clickable “hotspots” to facilitate the drafted portrayal of a complete user journey when each frame is linked together to create a full clickable prototype. We primarily share these designs with internal stakeholders, such as with folks on the Revenue, Content Development, and Software Dev teams, for feedback, but we sometimes elicit external feedback on InVision prototypes. We have other tools for this purpose, but InVision is the one that we have used the longest and used most widely across our team.

Invision is currently being used for various use cases in our team. Top one being prototype, it helps to share a prototype with potential stakeholders and get feedback. It also helps in sharing design specs with developers, which reduces to and fro between developers and designers and thus increasing productivity.

InVision is used across the whole organization for UX purposes. All the prototypes for online apps, mobile apps etc are all first created in Sketch and then exported to InVision. It is a great collaboration tool, where our clients, developers and us - designers can mark out thoughts at any point of the project and respond and share their opinions. I love that I can hand off the prototype to developers and they can go into inspect mode and get a greta level of detail: pixel, percent dimensions, colors, font, sizes etc.

InVision is my favorite tool for building software prototypes, designs, and sharing them within and across organizations. I can easily and quickly access all my projects, those created by myself as well as those shared by my peers. There is no need for registration, although you might limit access to your projects to invited, registered users only. It is very handy when you are working under NDA agreements. The app is also mobile friendly and will work on most mobile phones and tablets. There are some small cons as well. I would hope to find dynamic transitions between screens (like Balsamiq mockups can do), but this is a graphics/design tool, so you can't really have everything. I would still highly recommend using InVision if you are a designer, UI/UX specialist or project manager/product owner!
