Overall Satisfaction with InVision Freehand

I use freehand for any new product I'm developing that touches the UI. It's quick, easy, and so beneficial for everyone on the team. I hate wasting time creating Hi-Fi mocks that end up getting changed so many times - InVision Freehand solves that! I'm able to create lo-fi product mocks really quickly and I love the comment feature. It allows me to explain what I'm doing and also allows others to comment, too!

Pros

  • Lo-fi mocks.
  • Incredible feature set.
  • Shapes for every possible button.
  • Collaborating.
  • A Product Manager's dream tool

Cons

  • Make adding new text and sizing it easier.
  • Add a better text toolbar.
  • More color options!
  • Mocking webpages.
  • Collaboration tools.
  • Being free!
  • Speeds up the feedback cycle.
  • Allows PMs to tackle more projects.
  • Allows PMs to design without the help of designers (if bandwidth constrained)
This tool is SO easy to use. It only took me a few minutes to get the hang of it and that's why I love it so much. It allows me to collaborate seamlessly with my team because they're able to do the same! Having everyone be able to open up a link on their own computer and collaborate is key to success.
I chose InVision because others on my team were already using it! I still use other alternatives, but I love the simplicity of InVision and what it allows me to do.

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Freehand by InVision go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Freehand by InVision again?

Yes

InVision Freehand is really well suited for lo-fi mocks and wireframes. It's so helpful to be able to get an initial rendering of a product to give developers a general idea of the product they are going to build, as well as share the concept with stakeholders. InVision Freehand is not well suited for situations where you need a very detailed mock-up, with fonts, padding, spacing, etc.

Using InVision Freehand

We don't have anyone specifically who supports it on an ongoing basis.

  • Mocks

I love Invision. As a PM, I have to juggle a lot of things at once and having this tool allows me to spend my time wisely when it comes to designing/prototyping.
