Overall Satisfaction with InVision

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.
  • Prototyping
  • Sharing feedback internally
  • Collaboration for remote teams
  • Client presentations
  • The product is a bit disjointed, whereas competitor products have a more all-in-one feel
  • More difficult UI than other tools
  • Sharing settings and toolbar are not always intuitive
  • Commenting and collaboration for internal team members
  • Ease of sharing and permissions settings for client review and feedback
  • Low learning curve for clients to use
  • InVision has been a necessity to collaborate with outside designers and clients
  • It's widely used and one of the core design tools in the industry
  • Essential tool for remote team collaboration
InVision can be a powerful tool when paired with Sketch and other platforms like Freehand. However, Figma is currently the industry leader in terms of functionality and usability for collaborative UI design and prototyping. Invision's sharing and prototyping features are its strength, but Figma's design capabilities are a little bit better.

Do you think InVision delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with InVision's feature set?

No

Did InVision live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of InVision go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy InVision again?

Yes

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.
