Overall Satisfaction with Figma

Figma was introduced into our organization after InVision announced it was ending. Prior to Figma, our designers were using InVision, Adobe XD, and Sketch. I personally despised using Sketch for UX/UI projects and design systems work. It was such a pain using Sketch because I felt like the interface was clunky and not intuitive. Figma is far superior. Both Figma, and Figma Jam will be used to help our teams collaborate and work on visual, brand, and UX/UI projects.

Pros

  • Design systems organization
  • Component library management
  • Collaborating in real-time with others
  • Working with devs
  • Providing pixel perfect tools
  • Figma design community (I absolutely love it)

Cons

  • Honoring clipping masks when playing the prototype. It's super annoying because Figma acts as if there isn't a clipping mask and adds extra padding to my screen designs when presenting.
  • Process improvement, better project management, higher quality designs. Before, we were using antiquated tools and designers and devs were super frustrated that we weren't using Figma. It has helped streamlined processes in our organization and allowed us to finally use tools that the rest of the marketplace is using.
It has a clean and simple user interface. I was easily able to animate my screens without any formal training because the tool is so user-friendly.
Figma is by far the best prototyping tool out there. I am such a fan of this 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

Figma is the go-to tool for UX/UI, prototyping, etc. I've used it for app design, wireframing, user flows, and collaborating with devs. It also has great tools for managing your component library and design systems. I also appreciate the how flexible the permissions are. I wouldn't moodboard in Figma, which is why I appreciate Figma Jam. I like how you can copy and paste things from one program to another.
