Overall Satisfaction with Figma

I use Figma on my day-to-day to-do Product Design work and basic wireframing, illustration, iconography, and UX design work. Figma is more easily accessible and integrates more easily than most Adobe products. It is straightforward to bring files into Figma and integrate them seamlessly. When building out illustrations and iconography Figma is very easy to use to bring in sketches to overlay on top. It is a powerful tool to be able to use when taking lower fidelity sketches and then making them higher fidelity.

Pros

  • Product Design
  • UX Design
  • Illustration
  • Iconography

Cons

  • Pushing their new ui on uesrs too fast
  • Better learning tooltips like when Adobe does updates
  • Better integration for color
  • Better integration for icon paths (In development they show up missing and no way to fix them in Figma unless pulled into Adobe Illustrator)
  • Able to be able to build multiple products in one program and export over 500 frames at once very fast.
  • Deliver of over 250 icons in one file or page
  • Creation of over 1,000 concepts of illustration in one page or file without creshing like similar programs
I came into my role not even knowing how to use Figma and only after a month I understood the basics of using Figma for simple shape-building and layout skills for my role. There is a larger gap for those who want to learn usability and mobile UI/UX though.
Figma is way better than Adobe Illustrator because of its ability to seamlessly integrate multiple use cases like mobile design and vector-based shape building. While Adobe Illustrator is great for adding texture and depth to illustration you can still build high-end illustrations in Figma as well. Adobe Illustrator is not a program for Mobile and Web UI and UX high-fidelity prototyping because there is no way to prototype and build flows beyond wireframing.

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?

Yes

Would you buy Figma again?

Yes

Figma is not appropriate for those who specialize in print design and layout to easily make vector imagery into raster. It is also not a photo editing or manipulation tool similar to Adobe Photoshop. However, it is appropriate for those who work on mobile and web layouts to be able to create user flows.
