Overall Satisfaction with InVision

Everyone on my team (of UI designers) used InVision to create high-fidelity working prototypes, as well as many of those who are working in the UX department. It's the easiest and best way we have found to present to our clients how their finished product or products will look once going live. It also solves the problem of making edits when you are working with remote employees. Since InVision has the ability to leave comments, we know longer have to sift through emails about different changes to make, everything is done smoothly and in once place.
  • Version control is very simple to use and well laid out, and you don't need multiple files.
  • You can show your clients how their product will look on a variety of different devices, such as mobile.
  • Besides just moving between pages, there are options for things like a fixed navbar and linking to hotspots within the current page.
  • You can automatically upload screens from both Photoshop and Sketch.
  • There could be a few more options for interactions, such as image carousels, link/image hovering, and page transitions.
  • It would be nice to be able to upload from Illustrator, or other Adobe software.
  • InVision is great for engaging clients, when they are able to click through to prototype and get an actual feel for the product, they feel more involved in the overall design process.
  • When working with a team, the comments features really helps to save time when it comes to making edits.
Axure is expensive, and there's a much bigger then you get with InVision. I also feel like the finished prototype just never looks as nice. I do still use Balsamiq on occasion, that's the best option when you want to create something quickly, to communicate a simple idea. Marvel is the closest competitor I have found. It has the options for interactions that I wish InVision had, and fairly easy to use, but not as quick and simple as InVision.
InVision is great for communicating UX/UI design ideas to team members and especially to clients. It's really great working remotely; my UI team was able to show a clickable prototype to a client who was on vacation in another state using InVision.
