Overall Satisfaction with Sketch

Sketch is used by the Product Design team. It’s main purpose is as a design production tool, but it also acts as the curator of our design patterns. Sketch is the core of the UI design process extended by Abstract, InVision, and Zepplin. Sketch functionality is also extended by (for better or for worse) plug-ins.
  • Price point for teams is an excellent value
  • Stable platform
  • Responsive support staff
  • Custom plugins
  • Plug-ins can cause compatibility and stability issues
  • Big feature updates can break old files
  • Not cross-platform
  • Low barrier to entry
  • Integration with many third-party design workflow platforms
  • Team billing and cost
  • Rapid prototyping for product testing
  • Design accessibility compliance (via plug-ins)
  • Design team efficiency
  • Design-Engineering handoff
At the time of evaluation, Sketch provided a full feature design tool at the cost we needed. We also had required integration with Abstract, Zeplin, and InVision. Our design team already had familiarity with the Sketch interface. these considerations made it an easy decision to renew our subscription and related contracts.

Sketch is well suited for solo designers, cost conscious teams, or teams that want to integrate with an Abstract and/or InVision workflow. Sketch has a low barrier for writing custom JavaScript plug-ins so teams can extend Sketch to cater to their custom workflows. However, plug-ins can be difficult to manage and maintain. The Sketch platform is stable, but plug-in dependencies can turn it into a fragile application.
