Adobe XD Reviews: 4.3/5 — Solid Choice

Very easy to use, easy setup, smooth UI, and works perfectly o MacOSX

I like every little thing. It's pretty easy to use

Create mocking of my websites in effortless steps

It's quick. The speed at which XD loads and moves around, it is so easy to use and navigate. I can do live edits in front of clients while they critique instantly.

Scrolling on the feedback or comment site is slow. Hard to use sometimes. I find myself teaching other people how to use it.

We used to build websites directly in the website builder, but now we cut out unnecessary work by using XD.

Adobe XD is so easy to use and keeps getting better.

I wish it were possible to embed videos and links.

Adobe XD helped me complete my MFA thesis design outcome.

AdobeXD is a comprehensive prototyping tool with support for layered designs. The application comes with graphical assets for popular mobile application platforms. The application also gives you access to a rich library of stock images for use in your prototypes. The application integrates seamlessly with other prototyping and design tools.

You need an Adobe Account to use the application

Creating Mobile and Web Application Prototypes

I was so nervous starting this program, but I have learned so much thanks to the wonderful Tutorials available! I love how easy it is to use and navigate after watching the explanations!

I dislike how long it takes me to complete a project- several aspects have to be considered! It is not as simple as point and click.

We are using the program to create web-based education and classes for our staff. Staff enjoy this method of learning.

Adobe xd is helpful when we are working on creating a user interface and user experience design; for an upcoming App idea, it helps us to visualize the app before its made it helps to prototype the working of an app which gives us a better idea how app will look before the development team starts building it, it is filled with all the functions that is needed to create a design, we can design and make a prototype, we can integrate it with adobe creative suite which is helpful in getting all designs solution at one place. Adobe xd can is useful in creating web and mobile app prototypes. we can add plugins which is really good thing.

It supports plugins, but that's very limited in front of sketch and it is difficult to do advance animation of a prototype in adobe xd; apart from that it is a perfect tool for all the design need and it has some predefined presets which we can use, so it's good. the interface of adobe XD is difficult for beginners so if someone who is new to adobe XD might need some proper tutorials and course to learn the interface once you get used to it is easy to work. there is some issues when testing our projects into android devices

We are recently got into UI/UX Design, and adobe xd helped us to build some really good prototypes for projects like music app, food ordering app, stock exchange and eCommerce, we can create almost every kind of app design by using adobe xd tool, there is some work that needed to be done of built-in animation. we create websites and app mockups with adobe XD and the benefit is we can create industry standard work with help of adobe XD, so i will definitely recommend the use of Adobe XD to those who want to get into UI/UX Design

Adobe XD is the first tool I started using as a UI/UX designer, and it's the best.I like a lot of features that Adobe XD offers some of them are 1) It gives an option where we can organize designs in folders which helps me to organize multiple sub product's design or it's versions in a single folder 2) Adobe XD app which helps to see the live preview of the design when I am designing mobile apps 3) Adobe XD offers a variety plugins which speeds up the my work.Some of the awesome plugins are unsplash,custom export,humaans and many more 4) The new update of XD enables designers to easily create 3D Designs very easily using X and Y transforms in some clicks 5) Personalized options in sharing links for preentation,feedback,development and also with security options to add password

Adobe XD lacks in collaboration where two people can simultaneously work on an exact design in real-time The pricing of this tool is quite high It has also increased a lot of restrictions on the free plan, and this is not helpful for budding designers

Problems I am solving with Adobe XD includes 1) Rapid prototyping 2) Creating faster UI designs to get feedback in the early stage of the product 3) Share designs with developers so that they can easily download the assets and also copy color codes 4) Creating UX case Studies

Unlike other Adobe products like Illustrator or Photoshop, XD is very user friendly and intuitive.

I would like the ability to import XD documents into Illustrator.

I use Adobe XD to create mockups for new apps and website features for our business.

The prototyping tool is so powerful and easy to use. I also like the ability to share for development - it helps with the detailing of specs that I need to give to my development team, and we are improving our processes because of it.

I would like the ability to edit and iterate a document remotely while other users work on another section of the document. We are able to share documents to review each others' work but only one person is able to maintain ownership/editing of the document at a time. If this isn't the case, then I'm unaware of how to share a document in that way, and it would be nice to find an easier solution to that.

We are solving navigation issues for mobile and web users, improvement of various web elements, prototype testing, and so much more.

The rapid rate of feature advancement, and the fact that it seems like they are listening closely to user feedback, gives me a lot of hope for this tool

The fact that it can't display Ina responsive matter affects workflow since you basically have to do 2 mockups. One mobile and one desktop vs having a responsive one.

I used to quick prototype on Photoshop and the sharing/demonstrating capabilities were not good enough for clients wanting a more high fidelity concept

I've been using Adobe XD for a few years now and it's grown in leaps and bounds since I first started using it, they release monthly(usually) updates which add new features and improve the programme every time. It makes it easy for me to mock up designs quickly and effectively. Components make it easy to reuse elements and the protoyping features make it easy to show clients or devs how I would ideally want it to look like.

There are a few features I would love to have such as not having to create a new character style every time you just want to change the colour.

We're solving the problem of how to create good looking we. The main benefit i've found is speed. Before, designing sites in illustrator or photoshop was a slog but now it's changed the way I design websites for the better. Another benefit is shareability, I can share designs easily and get comments

XD gives my team the ability to use shared component libraries, so we aren't working from giant Illustrator documents that get out of date quickly. Our developers love that I can share mockups that have all the elements they need to quickly put my designs into production.

Getting started with XD, like most Adobe products, is daunting at first. It would be great if there were more tutorials built into the application that could get new users up to speed. That's especially important as I try to convince my team to switch to XD from Photoshop and Illustrator. If they don't adopt the software, then it makes switching pointless.

XD solves the problem of not having standardized and auto-updated component libraries. Additionally, it takes much of the back-and-forth away from the designers and developers, since everything exports in a neat package with everything needed to put designs into production.

This software allows many pages in a file which encourages consistent designing,colors thus simplifying editing The software also allows live previewing and file storage and all these are available on various operating systems. The software has the basics tutorials which are of great help especially to the beginners because they elaborate the application in detail.

In any editing shapes are an important aspect however with XD i can;t design more shapes apart from the circles, squares, oval which limits my level of creativity which has made me to start wishing the developers still have a lot to do. Well, even though you can design from it, but there is no feature yet to export css from the created design.

The has helped me so much when it comes to making wireframes, various prototypes. The software has also been important especially in the screen designing for for digital element/products like mobile apps, websites among others

Easy to do website design, easy flow, better guides, repeating grid and animation very helpful.

You can't relink the files you've placed easy, you have to drop a new one every time. Also every project opens on it's own window, it'd be nice if they would open in tabs.

We switched to XD completely for all our product landing pages and it has been extremely helpful.

I like how simple it is to just grab placeholder objects and create a simple wireframe. After the wireframe is made I can easily create repeating grid items and add visuals.

If I want to include place-holder text I have to install a third-party plugin. That's a built-in feature in most other adobe products and seems like it would be natural for this.

It helps to create wireframes and web mockups quickly in an easy to share way.

Adobe xd is the easiest and fastest way to prototype any digital product user interface, this is very agile way to bring product designs to life. with the use of ADOBE XD the design phase that use to take hours to complete now can take at most half an hour and a clients vision is brought to life. designers can choose from an abundance of UX design tools and color elements available to make adjustments to the interface, XD has a wide range in the pallets to mix and play around with. Adobe xd has a huge reach since can be used for both android app design and ios but also not limited to apps and websites, this means its easy to turn a website UIX into a mobile phone view able interface.

I have not found anything to hate about this product, makes my way more fast and efficient, this makes me look good at work and brings out a professional notch that clients normally look for or expects a service provide to give.

User interface improvement

The best W10 UX/UI software, they have improved it a lot in the last months. Works well as a simple and free version of Illustrator.

I dislike that you need to pay to work with the team. But being fair, it's a business.

I do Facebook Ads assets with XD and UX/UI designs.

XD is incredibly slick, the UI is awesome and the program is super easy to use, if you have used any other Adobe product before, this will blow your mind. Prototyping in Adobe XD is the best experience I have had out of all the products on the market, the Auto-Animate feature is incredible.

Honestly don’t have anything bad to say about Adobe XD, maybe easier to drag images in to shapes while they are already on the canvas or imported. I'd love there to be more in terms of extended animation when prototyping actions, so a few stages within the animation before it finishes and gets to the destination.

I was using Photoshop to design mobile Apps, but I can honestly say I’m still 100% creative but designing in 50% of the time. I was always put off by the length of time prototyping takes in other programs, saving out work and prototyping in another app is a blocker... but with Adobe XD it's so easy to do it in one place.

I think Adobe XD is the first step made by Adobe towards a easier-to-use suite of tools. They put the best from PS and AI into a very simple tool, easy to use by UX/UI designers for any kind of UI prototyping, wireframe, sketches and even for fast PS-like activities. I prefer it over Sketch for its simplicity.

Maybe some functionalities are missing, they have to work hard in order to reach Sketch but, again, I prefer XD over Sketch for the UI

I produce UIs in minutes, my work is based on this. Also it’s free.

Its great for building mockups and illustrations for applications like web and mobile apps.

Nothing, its brilliant. There's aren't much negative aspects of this software.

Saves a lot of time when making mobile and web designs as compared to photoshop, easy to use and quick prototyping capabilities.

1) Adobe XD is very compact in size and easy to install and use 2) Multiple options to choose wire frames for different devices like Android Phone, Iphone, Ipad, Website etc. 3) Easy to make prototypes of your application or website. 4) Facility of mean while checking that wire frame as an live interacting screen in simulator given in Adobe XD

1) It can only and only work in Windows 10 2) Computer System which are not capable handle windows 10, can't use Adobe XD. 3) While comparing with Sketch, some Functionalities of Adobe XD are getting poor.

1) Initially I was using Adobe Photoshop for UI Design creation. Then I moved on to Adobe Illustrator and later on currently I am using Adobe XD for my UI Design Creation. 2) Adobe XD let's me check that after UI Design Creation, how my Android or Iphone application will actually looks like. 3) Without any kind of XML coding, I am able of understanding and analyzing the interaction and way of working of my application.

The whole user friendliness of this app deserves a word. It’s very easy and intuitive to proceed with your project. Totally suggest to have a go!

It is quite limited in terms of plugins to download, but if you do find them, then it’s kind of hard to implement.

We are as a team drafting app designs for our clients

It's an evolved version of all the existing designing apps now. It collects all the most useful, yet powerful tools and features to make it the best free application on the market.

Connection with Adobe Cloud is annoying and can be closed.

As a part of the team, I am creating a design for a driving application for Moscow's startup - Procar

Being a user experience designer I have worked with a wide array of prototyping software. Sketch, InVision, etc, etc., but none of them quite compare to Adobe XD. I never thought I'd say this considering I have been an avid Sketch user for many years, but XD truly has come out fast and on top. The application is smooth and so easily integrated with the other Adobe products. A very solid product.

One thing I wish XD had that Sketch does have is the ability to "go back to the last page" during prototyping. This is particularly useful when you have a single page that you can get to from a multitude of other pages.

A tremendous amount of design and user experience problems. This application is so quick and easy, I can knock out mock-ups and wireframes in seconds. Allowing for my productivity to thrive at the workplace.

I love the auto-animate release and being able to copy eps files into XD from illustrator and vice versa.

Shared XD document on cloud is buggy especially if two people are using it at the same time.

I can work a lot faster with the copy eps into XD and being able to prototype the movement of the elements.

In the experience that I have obtained making muckups for web applications and mobile applications with Adobe XD, I can highlight the great operation and the great advantage of being able to frame all the design of an application, until I reach the point of linking the views to evaluate navigation without the need to program if a single line of code. This helps me to make the process of designing and developing an application more efficient by organizing the idea of what is desired better.

I still consider that the modeling of the views and the link need to mature at the operational level to achieve a balance between design and functional characteristics in the views.

It helps to design and analyze the layouts of the entire application without the need to know any language programming.

Even though I'm a backend developer, I've had my share of experience with frontend development and UI/UX design when I was younger and just starting out. Back then something like Adobe XD was just a dream, a futuristic dream that nobody thought could one day be real. However, here we are! I primarily used Adobe Photoshop for UI/UX design but couple years ago when I needed to create UI for my project I found Adobe XD and my life has never been the same since then. With it's ease of use and simple yet beautiful UI I can finish the job almost effortlessly. The feature I like the most is prototyping. Live preview helps me see the end result of my project and also share it with my team members or your customer if you are designing for someone else. It is very simple to use, flip to prototype mode and drag and link elements to each other. Besides prototyping and live preview, Adobe XD is rich with useful features like Grid repeating which helps you avoid copy/pasting elements every time you need to re-use something. You can also save assets like colors, character styles, components and basically things you might need to re-use during development. Adobe XD is a dream come true for UI/UX developers.

There are not a lot of things I dislike about Adobe XD but one I can't ignore is that there are a lot of features needed which are either in development or introduced but not good enough for use. Other than that I can't say much. I've completely gone from using Photoshop because XD is so rich in features, light weight and scalable on large projects.

I'm the only one with UI/UX experience in my team so I used Adobe XD to develop UI for the project. I can guarantee that using XD over Photoshop will save your time, lead to a better product and make the visualization easier and time efficient for you and your team members.

In love with how easy this program is to design and pro type a product. I learned how to use the whole program in an hour

I wish we were able to link to external links. This would would really helpful while finishing up a prototype.

I just finished creating a portfolio for a client in less than a week. Super easy to use and even they can go back in and change details they need to.

We love that the development team has an easy way to read and develop directly from an XD file and that assets are automatically embedded! The UX design aspects are great too for client presentations!

We wish that XD had a bit more similarities to Photoshop as far as the auto-palette creations!

We solved a problem with design to the development interface!

I love how simple to use this app is. It syncs with your Adobe Cloud across all your devices.

Sometimes it crashes on windows 10 and it is not supported in other operating systems like windows 7.

Adobe XD helps me creating beautiful web designs to give a better idea to my clients how their websites can be benefited from a newer website.
