Overall Satisfaction with Figma

We use both the design and dev modes in Figma. We've had it as our primary design collaboration tool for almost 2 years and recently adopted the dev mode functionality to assist with handover. We use it for ideation, prototyping, design system creation and management mostly, but have also used it to help with creation of assets like PDFs for brochures as well.
  • Co-design
  • Collaboration
  • Compatibility
  • Design hygeine
  • Large projects don't work well in the browser version
  • Some issues with billing to large/complex companies
  • Better management/curation of Figma community contributions
  • Replaced a number of tools so less overall licencing costs
  • Better efficiencies in cross capability collaboration (Design / Dev)
  • Don't need extremely powerful Macs to run design software
Figma's collaboration and speed of new feature development, coupled with their existing feature set when we purchased made them a clear choice. Their prototyping functionality was particularly impressive vs Sketch, but also their system compatibility (even browser) helped to make the decision easy.

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?

Yes

Did implementation of Figma go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Figma again?

Yes

We have a geographically distributed design and development team so Figma is a great tool that enables them to collaborate in real time, and also quickly catch up if they're working a-syncronously. The team loves using Figma as their primary tool, and the rapid feature development we've seen means it's taking on more roles for our peeps as time goes on.
