Zeplin is a versatile tool that facilitates collaboration between designers and developers, streamlining the design handoff process and minimizing miscommunication. With Zeplin, designers can import screens from software like Photoshop or SketchUp, attach assets, and create convenient diagrams. This enables them to set a high bar for implementing designs and saves time on back-and-forth communication. For developers, Zeplin offers the ability to better understand layouts and be more assertive by providing ways to export assets and CSS code. It captures CSS styles and optimizes their work, making it practical for prototypes and the layout of web applications. Additionally, Zeplin allows for easy sharing of design specs with clients and provides a succinct set of features for viewing, sharing, downloading, and discussing design assets. It acts as a bridge between design and development teams by reducing the communication gap and enabling feedback from stakeholders through shared boards. Its user-friendly interface makes it easy for engineers and designers to share, discuss, and question designs, ultimately saving time, headache, and mistakes due to miscommunication. Overall, Zeplin is widely used by digital product teams, UX designers, and other departments to collaborate effectively on projects.

We use Zeplin to share design specs with our clients and discuss UI changes. Zeplin provides us with a succinct but great set of features that lets us see, share, download and discuss design assets.
  • Share design screens: being the core of the service, uploading design screens from design software is as easy as it gets
  • Share and see design specs: Zeplin offers a really handy way to share design specs such as colors, fonts, CSS directives and rules
  • Prototype navigation: Zeplin offers navigation between screen using prototype navigation where you can link a screen and draw on top of the screen's elements. However, this is a very basic feature compared to similar apps and services. For instance, you can not assign transition effects or timeouts for transitions.
For UI and UX designers, Zeplin is a great tool that allows them to share design screens and specs with other members of their team. For project owners, developers and stakeholders, Zeplin comes in handy when in need of a fast, reliable tool to preview and review design assets and screens.
  • Faster processes: In my team, we were using cloud-based storage to share and review design assets. It was easy at first but if we needed changes done to the design assets the process would turn cumbersome.
  • Zeplin improved our delivery by removing the unnecessary steps that other tools offered and made us deliver changes faster, easier.
For my company needs, Zeplin comes as the best tool in its category. Zeplin's competitors are great tools but they either offer way too many features or are priced above Zeplin with the same features.

Zeplin is in the right spot for both pricing and features.
