Overall Satisfaction with Figma

Figma is a goto tool we use when we start our work everyday. Few years back we used to use different design tools and had to use different software for prototyping and sharing design files which was bit difficult to manage. Now the situation is that every design is created, shared, reviewed and researched are from Figma. It really makes Design and research work easy.
  • Flexibility in design, many plugins as added advantage
  • Ease of Prototyping
  • Seamless collaboration and sharing design files to stakeholders
  • Easy to track on component usage Analytics, I love this feature
  • Adding GenAI to create content based on provided prompt would be game changing
  • Integration with other Collaboration tools like (Miro) could help cater larger audiance
  • May be making prototyping more easy and fun (its much better now compared to other design tools)
  • Flexibility to design with wide variety of available options
  • Prototyping will be always be the one, as i have struggled a lot with other design tools earlier.
  • Component library and accessibility
  • Component Analytics
  • First one would be Figma led to minimise to buy multiple applications like (Prototype, Present, Component library)
  • When you'll have to use lees applications, you'll have to pay less
  • Saves lots of time and resource because of Figma being one stop design tool.
I will be specific here -
With Adobe XD it was very difficult to prototype, it was also very complicated to learn.
With Sketch - We had to use InVision for prototype and share and there were limited feature were available compared to Figma.
InVision - it was only suitable for sharing and collecting feedback on the prototype.

Yes

Would you buy Figma again?

Yes

Figma is well suited in designing 2d and 3d designs, very smooth to easy to use, could bee used over web or application, has got seamless transition. Prototyping in Figma is next level, I remember we had to struggle a lot to prototype any user journey or product workflow. It has always been the first choice of the designers post launch. One of the best part I like about Figma is the community level engagement, Its deep rooted and helps creating awareness for any new feature and to help if someone has any specific query.
