Pros
  • Asynchronous communication regarding new designs
  • Share UI items' sizes, colors, gaps, etc.
  • Share assets
  • Versioning
Cons
  • I cannot pin the table of contents in web-application, it's annoying to expand it each time and scroll from the very top.
  • It logs me out very often. Smth like once a week I have to log in again and then refresh all opened Zeplin tabs. Too much
  • We cannot draw a flow, only single screen
  • We cannot create a dynamical prototype

Pros
  • We are able to organize the design with multi-group in every project
  • Zeplin is also able to create variants within one screen. It's a combination of screens or pages into one small group, based on the workflow or behaviour we set.
  • We can create style guide and connect it in to many projects
  • Now, zeplin is support variable from Figma latest features.
Cons
  • Flows in zeplin were actually good. but if we put many flows inside one canvas,. that make the app slow
  • I hope they can make boards based on the design group. to make loading faster. Imagine we have over 100+ screens, and we make all screens as design flow.
  • Sometimes the style guide is not connected to the project. especially for color intergation.

Pros
  • Code snippets based on design are auto generated.
  • Integrates with existing collaboration tools used at the organization like Slack, MS teams and development tools like Visual Studio Code.
  • People can add comments to the designs which can be assigned as tasks to the relevant person within the design team.
Cons
  • Interface is confusing and unintuitive.
  • Steep learning curve for new users.
  • Tutorials in the self help section need a lot of improvement both in terms of depth and breadth of topics they cover.

Pros
  • Very nice design and user interface
  • Its styles components and color palettes organization is great
  • It has nice tools to iterate on web designs quickly
Cons
  • It would be better if it has a dedicated web application
  • It's not the easiest tool to learn and start working with
  • It would be awesome if it had more features turning it into an all-around tool for mockups and prototypes
