Scratching many itches—some areas better than others

For real-time collaboration and whiteboarding Comparable to Mural and Miro Better and more flexible than Figma For written documentation: Different features and more limited than Google Doc Similar to Notion in editing experience but more limited in features For creating flowcharts, diagrams, and wireframes: Lucidchart can be more practical for standard flowcharts Balsamiq can be more feature-rich, but I prefer InVision's simpler approach InVision Freehand might be a more practical tool for wireframing than Figma or Lucidchart—unless reaching for Balsamiq. As a generic diagramming/drawing tool, Figma is more robust and feature complete. For sharing design artifacts and gathering feedback: Comparable to Figma and Zeplin Figma integration is rather limited, unlike the fuller feature support for Sketch. For scrapping/archiving a variety of resources Comparable to Miro in terms of visual embedding (e.g. visual assets, PDFs, etc) Different purposes than Google Drive: less file repository and more visual pinboard. --- Freehand does a lot of things that many other apps do to a different degree, while not fully specializing in one thing. It's a whiteboard, wireframing tool, discussion tool, and design tool—doing a better job in some areas than others. Certainly helps close gaps between work areas, but not 100% scratching the itch.
