Overall Satisfaction with Abstract

We use Abstract to keep the design team working without problems in our organization, leveraging branches in different projects and files. We upload all the final deliverables there and create collections to show to stakeholders and to provide the handoff to developers.
  • branching
  • nothing else
  • collection management
  • collection sectioning and tags
  • software update
  • negative impact
i haven't selected Abstract, it was imposed top-down. I much love Zeplin and all its amazing features.

Do you think Abstract delivers good value for the price?

No

Are you happy with Abstract's feature set?

No

Did Abstract live up to sales and marketing promises?

No

Did implementation of Abstract go as expected?

No

Would you buy Abstract again?

No

In my opinion, branching is really the only great thing about Abstract. but the software hasn't been updated in quite a while (2/3 years), I think all they do is bug fixing and handle performance issues. I believe the management of collections is extremely poor.

Using Abstract

35 - UX/UI designers
3 - i have no idea since all people do is create branches and collections
  • handoff
  • designer to developers collaboration
  • stakeholder presentation
  • none
  • sort and tag collections
  • flows and processes
as already explained this software only does branching... the rest is really poor and basic
