Overall Satisfaction with Sketch
Sketch is used by all the UX designers at my company, as well as by some of our graphic designers. Sketch is our number one go-to design tool for creating interfaces and mockups. It holds our entire design system and patterns, so we can quickly create all the designs our developers need for interfaces.
Pros
- Sketch allows you to quickly create mockups, especially when you have a design system in place.
- Sketch is great for wireframes because it's so fast and easy to create shapes.
- Sketch has a lot of plugins made by the community.
Cons
- Using nested symbols can sometimes be confusing and a bit difficult.
- Updating the plugins and finding missing fonts can be a pain.
- Sketch has helped to create designs we can then use for prototyping, so we can validate features before having our development invest time building them.
- Sketch has helped me to communicate my ideas visually to Stakeholders.
- Sketch is relatively cheap since it doesn't lock you into a subscription model.
Sketch is the industry leader when it comes to visual design for mobile apps and websites. However, its competitors are catching up very quickly and starting to offer features that Sketch doesn't have. While I think Sketch is still the best visual design software out there for UX designers, I am concerned that it's not keeping up with the speed of its competitors.
