Figma Reviews & Product Details

The ability to collaborate with internal and external teams while also having version control

There's room for improvement in the prototyping stage. It feels like the functions there are secondary to the rest of the software.

It allows our team to work collaboratively internally and also to share and collaborate with our clients.

Figma took all the best parts of design software across the years and made a tool that you feel good using. My top features would have to be the cloud-based nature of the product, designing/prototyping/dev mode, real-time collaboration and the community!

Occasionally being web-based hurts when your internet is either down or spotty. Recently my internet situation has improved and this has made working in Figma no problem at all but there were times when I couldn't access or save changes to a file and it would crash.

As a product designer, Figma enables me to create basic designs, wireframes and prototypes to share product change requirements with teams like developers, product managers, or other stakeholders. Further though, Figma has sophisticated and wonderful features to create design libraries, animations and a community where designers can share files or concepts created with each other. There is also a robust plugin marketplace to add even more value to the product.

I love that Figma is browser based and I can pick up a design file from any internet connected device with a browser. The multiplayer feature has forever changed the landscape of design collaboration. I like that Figma is the first tool that I have used that allows me to design in a way that is similar to interfaces are built in code. Feautres Components, Variants, Variables, Auto Layout are ones that now that I've incorporated into my teams workflow I can not imagine working without them.

I think this is a double edged-sword. I LOVE that Figma is browser based. However, AFAIK, that also means that Figma is restricted to 2GB of memory per file/tab. I work on a large design with a robust system of shared libraries, and we consistently bump into the the file size warnings since notications start appearing around 50% memory usage or 1GB. The experience of using the tool also tends to start slowing down as your file consumes more memory. When I first started using Figma in 2016, its features were more bare bones but it was also really fast. As features have been added the experience has definitely slowed down. I trust that the INCREDIBLE team at Figma will continue to prioritize speed, perfermance, and the experience of desinging with their tool as they continue to add new features in the coming years.

Figma makes file management, version control, and remote collaboration painless. Figma is also starting to improve the designer and developer collaboration experience which is also a huge plus for me and the teams I work with.

Everything! 1. Easy to use 2. Learning Curve is minimal 3. Exciting features 4. Fremimum forever model 5. Live Collaboration 6. Very Fast and no lags unlike other tools

Nothing! No one can ever dislike Figma.

Online Collaboration with the team. Prototyping. Wireframing and designing screens

Figma is the best when it comes to UX design and userbility testing.

Price. The licencing costs are a bit pricey

We use Figma for Wireframes and designing ready to dev screens. We also use Figma for usability testing.

It's realy easy to use and have a lot of features

Some features are still missing. For example i'd realy like to have the ability to block some nested properties in a component

Figma is a realy powerful tool that allows all the designer to work together effectively

1. Real-time collaboration 2. Responsive Design 3. Prototyping 4. Easy creation and use of components and libraries 5. App has its own multiple plugins which are very helpful All this in one app is amazing and it makes your work easy. It also maintains the version history

I only feel that pricing may be an issue for a beginner designer or someone who is just looking to learn design. Also, since it's a cloud-based tool, it requires the internet to work. Hence offline editing may not be possible.

It helps build an online application for a logistics company and because of its collaborative feature, our entire design team can work efficiently. It seamlessly prototypes screens making it easy for a designer to demo an application to management.

See the pixels, copy colors, and see paddings when we are coding new features. Also, the demos in preview mode when the designers are making usability test is really helpful before coding.

Lacks when the files have multiple layers. Sometimes, I need to search a specific screen that the designer provides me, but if I cannot see where I cannot search for it.

The functional prototype is developed before coding. And also, the communication between software engineers and UX designers is better if both have proper information in those files.

First of all the pricing as the free version is suitable for most usecases and if you need more the professional package comes cheap. Second the functionality and the stability of the software. Easy to use and we never (even with +15 persons) had any issues with speed and quality of services.

Not much. Sometimes and especially when you use it with many details it´s a bit slow and it feels not so fluid. This is not a big issue so honestly not worth to mention.

Prototyping of apps is the main usecase. Due to the easy to use functionality we sometimes use it even as a whiteboard in remote enviroements when we need to work on one idea/brainstorm in a team.

Before Using figma we used to work with Photoshop which was always a guesswork regarding the font-size, border-radius, colors etc. and the Icons needed to be sent separately because they were Vector based. With Figma the guesswork is gone and all i need is to click the element and see all its attributes and download it as SVG if needed.

the UI is sometimes laggy but I guess it's because of all the data inside it.

I'm able to see the exact attribues of an element and download it as SVG if needed.

The simplicity of using the tool rivals that of anything else I've ever used. I used to despise using things like MS Vizeo because it was so finicky. I started to watch my co-workers in different departments use figma and I decided to try it out. It's so easy that I picked it up without any instruction and I create workflow's and send them to my client's and subordinates frequently.

I don't think there is anything that I specifically dislike yet. While I haven't tried it in browsers beyond chrome I would hope that it is optimized for Safari and Edge.

It is helping me quickly visualize workflows and problems so that stakeholders can either confirm or respond with revisions. This has sped up the process of resolving certain issues tenfold.

We love how figma makes it really easy for our team to create prototypes and pages and allows us all to collaborate on it and give immediate feedback.

We wish the settings for Figma were much easier to locate. It's hard to find the Billing page for example or the Profile section.

We can build high-fidelity designs in one-place instead of having it cluttered through different Drives or Dropboxes.

I think one of the most helpful part of Figma is the fact that it is web based and this often means that I can pickup any computer device and access my Figma design in a matter of seconds or even take part in collaborative product designs with team members spread around different locations. Being able to prototype and collect feedback from my colleagues in this way tops my list of things to love about this wonderful design software.

Because Figma is primarily web based, it often means that it is ineffective without internet connection. While I rarely have found myself needing to use Figma without internet connections , there have been situations where there was internet outages or I was in a location with poor internet connection and I basically couldn’t do much with Figam , despite its subtle offline capabilities.

Figma is the primary software that my team has relied upon for product designing and prototyping purposes. With Figma , our prototypes are closer to the main thing as possible. Once we get our designs right on Figma , we no longer need to worry about our designs not being compatible with specific screen sizes or reacting badly on mobile screens as Figma takes care of all of these potential hurdles.

Well, the most liked software by me till date is FIGMA. It is such a brilliant software every designer fall in love with. We can call it as a boon for design industry, figma built trust, guide new designers, easy to use, not a complex software, meet every requirements well. The team that built Figma software went above and beyond for every single need of a user to make it happen. Once if you start using figma you will not go for any other.

There is nothing that i dislike about figma, this is my favourite tool and i highly recommend to everyone who loves designing. Get figma, use it and grow. You are never gonna regret.

As a UI designer when i can came across figma, it doesn't took me too long to learn the software it is very easy to use and well built. No complexations. Now, after 2023 config it comes with more advanced options and get more relaxive for developers. You can create another level of prototyping and wireframing with it that blows everyones mind. Great tool till date.

figma has allmost everytoll to make templates and wesite design posture and i like the most about figma is the frames android,iphone,teblates and much more so i can see the website or our design in diffrent phones and laptops

figma is not much responsive i can not make a website or app the redirect directly on page , i have to make another templates for all redirections.They have to add ready mate button or some pages.

I have make multipal website threw diffrent softwares but the main issue is that when i run them the website ,i can't see the phone or laptop or page so if i make website for laptop it does not work properly in phone but in figma it easy to explore the diffrent tool for see my website in laptop or phone or many more
