Overall Satisfaction with Justinmind

Justinmind is a great prototyping/wireframing tool for UI/UX design. Very fast, easy, and scalable depending on your needs. The free version is great, but the cost is affordable if you're looking for a more robust solution.

Pros

  • Creating low or high-resolution click-through prototypes are very simple. Didn't need any training other than watching a couple of short Youtube videos. The more complex interactions require some more digging, but it's mostly drag and drop.
  • Pricing is on a monthly basis, so it's a great tool to use if you need to ramp up or down. I'll use it to refine our user experience and design, and after that's done I don't have to renew the following month if I don't need.
  • Their templates are nice: I can prototype a phone app using standard templates depending on the device. Makes it easy for our stakeholders to understand and visualize concepts and design.
  • I like the iOS app, it makes it easy to share ideas and designs with others.

Cons

  • Although I like the monthly pricing model, it can become more expensive if you use it often as opposed to some competitors who offer lifetime licenses. But it depends on your usage.
  • There is a learning curve to learning how to prototype, but it isn't bad. Within a few days of poking around, I had a good handle on how to create simple prototypes.
  • Faster design to market process. We can get sign-off on our prototypes and push to development faster than creating pages and pages of documentation.
  • Easy for stakeholders and developers to understand how requirements feed design options, and it's easy to provide several design options to figure out what our stakeholders like best.
  • Easy to do A-B testing with users. We can figure out much quicker what works and what doesn't from a usability standpoint.
I like the user experience with Justinmind and the pricing. Other products are good depending on your needs, but I don't find myself prototyping enough to validate a lifetime license.
Justinmind is great for UX/UI design. It helps my stakeholders understand design ideas and provide helpful feedback to our development team. It doesn't work great for high fidelity prototypes that rely on data-driven design. But product walk-throughs are great.
