Figma Organization

Overall Satisfaction with Figma

There are a couple of things we do on Figma:
1. Primarily, I use it for the purpose of creating wireframes and drawing explanatory flowcharts.
2. Additionally, since the designers work on Figma, the collaborative features come in handy in working together and editing copy + design changes.

In addition to this, all our UI UX design prototypes are created on Figma only and passed on to devs.
  • Collaboration
  • Available wireframing tools are pretty good but could be better
  • Quite naturally, overall design and prototyping capabilities
  • FigJam needs more shapes, prototyping tools and shapes
  • Dev Mode - css ready code
  • Collaboration
  • Managing styles, components, tokens etc
  • The amount of time just saved explaining through wireframes which are created fairly quickly
  • Amount of dev time saved translating to thousands of dev working hours.
Figma does everything that I personally needed to do, and does all of those really well.
If you're a UI / UX designer, there is nothing better out there. If you're a PM, you'll be working on this quite a bit, but this is definitely not the best wireframing tool.

Do you think Figma delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Figma's feature set?

Yes

Did Figma live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Figma go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Figma again?

Yes

I wouldn't recommend it for creating rough wireframes or prototyping as some shapes (like screens and buttons) are not easily available in FigJam. If the requirement is creating a full fledged prototype design or do all design work, nothing beats Figma.

Additionally, if you're a graphic designer creating illustrations, Figma isn't the best tool for that either.
