Overall Satisfaction with Figma

We use Figma extensively in my work to prototype product changes and manage assets. It’s a powerful and fast, and makes designing web and app UIs with my team easy. The best feature is the online collaboration, anyone can share in the design process. Figma has been a great tool for our team to prototype product changes and manage assets. It has allowed us to work together in real-time, making it easy to collaborate on designs and share feedback.
In addition to prototyping, we also use Figjam, we use it for day-to-day team syncs, team planning, retrospectives, and quarterly plans. FigJam has been a great way to keep everyone on the same page and ensure that everyone is working towards the same goals.

1. First, Figma is browser based, unlike Sketch that requires a client app and a license for each of them.
2. Sketch is limited to Mac users, Figma, on the other hand, is universal and only requires a browser.
3. It offers free tiers.
4. Figjam-only option allows companies to onboard more people with lower costs.

Figma is an excellent tool for product teams to align between designers, product managers, and engineers. It allows for real-time collaboration, making it easy to share feedback and work together on designs.
Figma is also great for aligning between designs to ensure common practices and standards are followed. Additionally, Figma is a great tool for asset management, making it easy to keep track of design assets and reuse them across projects.
FigJam is another feature of Figma that is great for scratch pads, team ceremonies, planning, retrospectives, and quarterly planning . Since its virtual whiteboard allows teams to work together in real-time, it makes easy to collaborate on designs and share feedback

However, Figma may not be the best tool for file and board management, this is an area where Figma doesn’t solve well
