InVision has been widely used by design teams to streamline the website design process and gather valuable feedback from clients. By providing tools for diagramming ideas, drawing wireframes, and creating prototypes, InVision has supported the translation of design discoveries into actual flows. Designers have found it beneficial for sharing initial mockups with clients and prototype dynamic designs with clickable interactive prototypes. This feature allows for a more in-depth feel of the design and facilitates collaboration and iterative improvements.
Additionally, InVision has played a crucial role in filling communication gaps and promoting collaboration between product, design, and engineering teams, as well as key stakeholders. It simplifies the design process for websites and digital marketing materials by allowing for easy client review and code extraction during development phases.

Invision helps your design team get faster
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.
- Simple and to the point UI is easy to use.
- Ability to use anywhere; mobile, web, apps etc.
- Basic animation features could use some improvement to support advanced users.
- Only one project allowed per account on the free tier.
- Saves money from development costs for prototyping.
- Facilitates quick decision making.
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.

InVision: Increase your team's effectiveness and efficiency
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.

Probably the most popular tool out there. Decent, but plenty of areas for improvement.
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.
- Simplicity. As a developer, I only use InVision to reference the mocks that the designer/UX person created. InVision lets me easily accomplish that.
- Inspect mode is very useful for developers: instead of just looking at a static image, I can inspect individual elements to see their dimensions and styles like font size and color.
- Sometimes I can't inspect the right element because some other transparent element is blocking it. Invision should handle this better and allow me to ignore certain elements or cycle through different elements at the mouse cursor.
- No support for reusable styles (e.g. color variables).
- No support for building an entire library of reusable components that all designers would then use. This results in frequent discrepancies between what's in the mocks and common styles of UI components (e.g. buttons, dialogs) in the actual product.
- The Jira plugin is slow, allows only 1 attachment per issue, and is cumbersome to use (you need to generate a special share link to embed an Invision mock). So we just put the old-fashioned links in the issue description.
- I wasn't a decision-maker, nor do I own the implementation of the tool at my current company, so I can't answer this question.
- It's been positive, overall, I feel.

Great software for non-technical designers
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!
- Clickable prototypes with multiple screens.
- Easy upload, due to the integration with software like Sketch.
- Easy-to-animate prototypes, with highly customizable options.
- Easy to access basic CSS code from graphic elements, making it easy to communicate to developers.
- Better integration between their different products. I don't know how to distinguish them based on the names.
- Better integration with Microsoft Teams (they have Freehand, but that's it). Option to share a prototype directly on teams.
- Options for testing InVision better. Currently, the limit is 1 prototype per free account.
- Quicker prototyping, positive ROI on time.
- The finetuning of designs is quicker, making our apps better.
- Making better-designed webshops that our customers love and understand better.
