Figma Reviews & Product Details

Figma Overview
What is Figma?

Figma is a feature-loaded design tool with tools designed to help users mockup, edit and design websites. The platform takes a more collaborative, cloud-based approach to design, which means it allows team members to design simultaneously and give each other continuous feedback as they work. This makes collaboration simpler and more effective. A free plan is available on Figma, however, premium plans offer more extensive tools and robust capabilities for web design and development as well as collaboration.

"Life changer for designers"
What do you like best about Figma?

Working with Figma has revolutionized the way I collaborate with others on design projects. Not only is it fast and easy to use, but the comments feature is an absolute game-changer! Seeing others' edits and thoughts directly within the platform knocks out the need for endless back-and-forth trying to figure out which version is what. Plus, having all my designs and files stored in one cloud platform makes searching through past projects a breeze. All of this means I can do more work in a much shorter amount of time - it's wonderful!

What do you dislike about Figma?

Personally, I have to say that my biggest gripe with Figma is the lack of any baseline template for new projects. No matter what I do, it seems like every project begins from scratch - an empty canvas, so to speak. This can certainly lead to some creative freedom but hey, sometimes I just want a nice starting point to work off of. Another minor annoyance is that there aren't any preset styling functions; everything needs to be touched up manually or risk coming out looking a bit off-the-wall. So while Figma definitely has many amazing features, it could still use a few quality-of-life improvements here and there.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

Imagine having a panicked moment when your work computer crashes and you lost all of your design ideas. Fortunately, Figma is here to the rescue! This program has revolutionized the way digital design is done with their cloud-based collaborative platform which allows users to easily store, share, view, edit, and develop their designs with other team members in real-time. Plus, if you're ever feeling overwhelmed with managing all your projects - don't worry! Their easy to use interface has everything you need at the touch of your fingertips from visibility into project progress to analytics and much more. Figma's set out to save time so you can focus more on perfecting your projects and creativity instead of worrying about the nitty gritty details that come along with it.

"Figma is a powerhouse application for designing and prototyping user experiences."
What do you like best about Figma?

I love how easy it is to manage user access and create groups. User management is very helpful when working with multiple teams on multiple projects. Libraries are a huge time saver and are extremely powerful. Definitely worth setting up because it makes prototyping much easier once you have established your design library. Variants and properties are powerful ways of standardizing controls and assets to create a consistent user experience with little overhead.

What do you dislike about Figma?

Because user permissions are so structured, you can spend time in user access management. The learning curve for libraries and variants is a bit steep. It also requires a bit of foresight before developing your library to ensure you're constructing it correctly.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

We prototype user experiences for both web and desktop-based applications. We save time by using a tool that allows for the design and prototyping in one. We also save time by implementing design libraries and variants because we don't have to rebuild assets every time we need to add a control.

"Exceptional Software for Responsive UI Design, Wireframing, Prototyping, and Graphic design"
What do you like best about Figma?

I found the components most helpful for UI Design. I appreciate its responsiveness features like Auto Layout, Layout Grid, and overall User Experience of Figma. It's the Best Prototyping software, especially with the recent updates. It is very helpful in working collaboratively.

What do you dislike about Figma?

Well, everything in Figma is much more than enough. But I would like Figma to launch the feature of working offline as well which can be better to work if there is no internet sometimes.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

Figma is solving problems of making the design responsive, working collaboratively, and getting feedback live from other co-workers on the same project. These amazing features saved a lot of time at work which benefits me to work more.

"best design tool for UI/UX"
What do you like best about Figma?

One of the best things about Figma is its intuitive interface. It's easy to start, even if you're new to design tools. The interface is clean and uncluttered, making it easy to focus on your work. Figma also offers a wide range of features, including vector editing, prototyping, and design components, which make it a great all-in-one tool for designers.

What do you dislike about Figma?

Can't make Illustrations because we can't make a pixel-perfect design. it follows a grid structure so sometimes it is also hard to align design vectors by center etc..

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the best problem that of Figma solved for me is its collaborative capabilities. It's incredibly easy to work on projects with your team, whether you're in the same location or working remotely. You can share your designs with team members and clients, and they can leave comments and feedback right on the design itself. This makes it easy to track progress and keep everyone on the same page.

"Figma is the perfect online editing platform for vector graphics and collaboration"
What do you like best about Figma?

Figma is designed to be a collaborative tool, allowing multiple users to work on the same file simultaneously. This can be particularly useful for teams working on design projects, as it will enable designers to collaborate and make changes in real time without sending files back and forth. I like that Figma provides many features and tools for designing user interfaces, websites, and other digital products. These include vector graphics editing tools, text formatting options, and a variety of design resources and templates. This makes it a versatile tool that can be used for a wide range of design projects.

What do you dislike about Figma?

I'm not too fond of the limited offline functionality, as Figma is a web-based tool that requires an internet connection. While it offers some offline functionality, it is limited and may not be sufficient for users who need to work offline regularly. Also, I wouldn't say I like the performance issues: Some users have reported performance issues when using Figma, such as slow load times or lag when working with large or complex files. While Figma has made efforts to improve performance, some users may still encounter these issues.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

Figma aims to solve the problem of coordinating and collaborating on design projects with multiple team members. By providing a web-based platform that allows multiple users to work on the same file simultaneously, Figma makes it easier for teams to collaborate and share ideas in real-time. Overall, Figma solves a variety of problems that I encounter when working on design projects, and it can benefit me in several ways. By providing a collaborative platform for design work, streamlining the design process, and creating interactive prototypes, Figma can help me work more efficiently and effectively and produce high-quality designs.

"Love Figma. Please don't change it, Adobe"
What do you like best about Figma?

Figma is fantastic for design and getting things out the door quickly, working collaboratively as well. But the biggest thing I love about Figma is actually Figjam, which is my go-to tool for getting ideas down collaboratively.

What do you dislike about Figma?

Sometimes there are bugs. Once all of the text on my Figma doc was replaced with Lorem Ipsum placeholder text. There are a few little features I wish it had, like exporting numerous PDFs as one doc, but there are workarounds. Overall no major gripes.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

Collaborative design. Before, I used Adobe Suite and transferred files using WeTransfer every time I needed another designer's input. What a pain - Figma makes this totally seamless.

"The best tool to design"
What do you like best about Figma?

Figma is the best tool for designers who work remotely. I love how collaboration works well and that all your work is saved on the cloud. Also, Figma is a complete tool that turns your job easy by allowing you to develop the design process—starting with ideation on Figma Jam until prototyping with the prototype tool and Smart Animate.

What do you dislike about Figma?

There are some points I'd like to be better on Figma. First, I have a bug with zooming the screens, so sometimes it stops working, and I have to reset the computer to work again. Another point is that Figma could improve the Fonts/Typography; because fonts differ from when you code.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

Figma solves the problem of collaboration that we had using other tools like Sketch. Before Figma, we needed to save the work and share files with the team. With Figma, everything is online, auto-saved, and safe.

"Best for UI Design"
What do you like best about Figma?

Figma's user interface is appealing to me because it is both basic and functional. It is not as difficult as other software. It also has prototype functionality, so we can show off our work in prototype mode. I also like that there is no need to install Figma on your system to use it; eventually, it becomes so easy to use that we don't need to spend money on high-end PCs.

What do you dislike about Figma?

I disliked the new feature that force us to pay a monthly or yearly fee for Figma. Thus, adding pages to a single document is no longer permitted. Additionally, the software has some restrictions, such as fewer tools or plugins.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

The issue is being resolved, particularly for UI/UX Designers, by Figma. Because we designers used to use Adobe XD to create website and mobile user interfaces prior to the advent of Figma. It was also excellent, till Figma came along. Because it was browser-based software, we didn't need to download it to our computers because it was so easy to use. As a result, it became simple to use after users gave it a try. There seemed to be no turning back.

"Figma taking over from Sketch"
What do you like best about Figma?

Figma helps out a lot in combining the advantages and perks of adobe xd, adobe photoshop and sketch too. All this together makes it as powerful a tool as something like Invision studio.

What do you dislike about Figma?

Figma is online-first. This means that unless the file was open originally, you can't really work on it and save your work, until you go online. This is something that can be improved.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

Figma is helping to solve the problem of collaboration in real time. This is important because most of the other platforms in this domain have been way late to this game.

"Only UI/UX Software that available in Web Based Version"
What do you like best about Figma?

I use figma just for the one feature that is it's a web based software. I use figma without installing it on my PC. It comes with feature real time collaboration that other UI/UX software don't provide that makes it best among all other softwares. Its UI is user friendly. Easy to manage multiple projects. Figma support 3d party plugins. I have a Figma subscription that gives me some additional feature like no restriction on creating projects, more pre built templates available.

What do you dislike about Figma?

The only thing I dislike about Figma is when I work on ultra large project some time it crash the browser or goes in not responding state. It consumes more resources when work on ultra large projects. Other than this nothing to dislike in figma.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Figma for creating prototype and wire framing for our website and app projects. Its real time collaboration features helps our team to work on a single project. Its a web based application so our team can use it on any system. When we finished the project we can easily present all our prototype to our clients with share links.

"Effective & Very Easy to Use!!"
What do you like best about Figma?

I use Figma every day at work to develop UI for our app. It is a very easy-to-use interface, provides many integrations and is amazing for working together with other designers in the same file. It can be used for both beginners and professionals, in my opinion. The best software in this area that I´ve tried so far!!

There is always stuff that can be improved, but nothing major that annoys me in my everyday work. Figma is also good at continuously updating functions to the better!

"Figma is undoubtedly the best designing tool!"
What do you like best about Figma?

Figma is a browser-based collaborative design tool that is lightweight, streamlined, and powerful. It brings together the best of traditional desktop software with the ease and responsiveness of a modern web app.

What do you dislike about Figma?

It is a little difficult to understand at first, but it is a handy tool once you learn how to use Figma.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

Figma's the world's most influential design tool. It'll help you design better and faster, with instant feedback on your work—so you can spend more time designing. It's never been easier to create designs that fit your brand with a library of over 500k assets and every other professional tool.

"Strongest Designing Tool with real time Collaboration feature"
What do you like best about Figma?

Figma is a simple and sober tool for every designer. It has a simple interface to use with best performance. The most exciting thing with Figma is that we can simultaneously design anything with our team members. We can use it without taking any tension of saving the data. It can automatically save our design every second. It is a browser based application, so we do not need installation and do not need a powerful computer to use it.

What do you dislike about Figma?

There is only one problem with Figma you need an active internet to use it. If there is no internet, we can't use Figma; otherwise, there is no problem with it which I can feel.

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps me design the software interface, logos etc., with my colleagues at the same time, which makes it more productive and creative and other team members reviews it in real-time for correction too.

"All in one tool with robust tools and lots of plugins"
What do you like best about Figma?

Figma makes a designer's life easier. I love "Auto layout", and hundreds of plugins can be useful every day. My third favourite tool is fig-jam which I use for workshops, documentation and ideation.

What do you dislike about Figma?

One thing that could be improved is "Smart animate".

What problems is Figma solving and how is that benefiting you?

Figma is a powerful all-in-one tool, it has all the required tools and features. It can be used at all design stages, from discovery to ideation and hi-fi mocks. Also, it makes reviewing designs easier with share and comment options.
