Figma Reviews: 4.7/5 — Highly Rated

If you are a designer or company working with any sort of product design, Figma is the tool to go. Compared with other similar tools it has a clear advantage in multiple areas as such prototyping and in design systems.

The newly introduced 'Tokens' feature is super valuable and appreciated but still a little bit difficult to understand in the beginning.

Design system management with Figma is bliss. The new "Tokens" features made it easy to create multiple variations for different themes or even different breakpoints.

Figma is very user friendly and it is free for some extent. Little knowledge of deisgning can use figma within a days or two. You can easily create complex user interface and prototype it. I basically use figma to design and prototype mobile and web applications. I use figma in my daily work.

There is no downside for figma. But creating a complex design you will need a knowledge about variables in figma that helps a lot.

Wireframing and prototyping is made easy by figma. Light wait and you can showcase your prototype and design anywhere anytime using your phone.

there are several things i like about Figma some of them includes :- 1. its plugin ( especially AI Based) 2. its intutive UI 3. Wireframing

What i dislike about Figma includes the Lack of phone/Laptop frames available in prototyping and the need to create Team if i want to share my files. Even the files take a lot of time to load at time.

I used figma For developing the Ui of websites and Apps. Apart from it I also used it for editing posts etc for my linkedin etc. Its best feature i like is no need to install and browser friendliness.

Once you get used to where things are, Figma is a great tool for laying out websites, emails, and social graphics. It's also great for collaboration as you can leave notes and respond to them when working on designs with an external team.

It's hard to get used to where things are (libraries, files, etc.).

It helps me layout emails, etc. so that the web team can translate my designs into great looking final assets.

New features. Flexibility. Prototyping functionality. Constant improvement on design efficiencies.

It's daunting at first. I was so used to using Adobe software and Axure when I started using Figma. Once I realized it functioned more like coding than designing, a lightbulb went off for me.

Arcticulating design decisions to business leaders and development teams

I love Figma's wireframing features and tools. Figjam is great for quick idea building and moodboards during meetings and the like. I definitely recommend Figma for professional teams.

Some of the features in Figma are a little hard to work with for beginners. Which is fine because I'm a designer with experience. However when we have to onboard someone to the team it takes a little adjustment time.

Prototyping, designing, and all stages of design research can be accomplished in the platform as a team, for instance. I do enjoy being able to work remotely in a creative capacity.

It is a very easy tool but it is also very powerful and efficient. Its community is really helpful for finding inspiration or useful materials for design. Its plug-ins are also very helpful.

I still struggle with versioning; I think they should find an easier way to do that. It is also a little bit harder to prototype HMIs that need to be used with physical commands such as encoders.

It helps in providing an easy way to design, share and collaborate between colleagues.

We can test and learn from many designs and prototypes thanks to Figma. I wouldn't be able to show prototypes to clients and get their comments without it. We exchange files all team members for ideas gathering and project updates, apply it for team discussion, and use it for supporting visuals during meetings.

Figma is tackling issues with its offline capabilities in order to address the fundamental causes of the problems rather than just dealing with the symptoms. Being unable to record and replay conversations in FigJam's audio chat makes it difficult to analyze and reflect on discussions.

As a Figma user for a year, I'm hooked! It solves so many design problems: real-time collaboration keeps my team in sync, prototyping lets me test ideas quickly, and the cloud-based platform makes access effortless. Now, I can design faster and more efficiently than ever before! Figma is essential to our company's UX design process as it helps us create the first frontend screens from scratch for our projects all the way up to the Minimum Viable Product.

I love how you can work with multiple users at the same time, live! I also enjoy that lots of UI elements are coded and that you can easily prototype your wireframes.

I think their billing needs to evolve a tad as it depends on number of users and number of projects

It is the main tool that we use to design wireframes and prototypes.

The best aspect of Figma is its intuitive interface and collaborative features, making it effortless to create designs and work seamlessly with teams in real-time.

An area for improvement could be strengthening its offline functionality to mitigate occasional connectivity issues that users might encounter.

Figma resolves the challanges of collaborative design and prototyping by offering a cloud-based platform accessible to multiple users in real-time. This benefits me by streamlining team collaboration, ensuring version control, and facilitating efficient design iterations, leading to faster project completion and improved design quality.

Prototype options for a wide variety of mobile and desktop sizes; sharing and commenting is available even to users without a Figma account; versatile grid and design options; free version is robust

Steep learning curve; advanced prototype features like creating dropdowns are not very intuitive

Creating SEO-friendly page designs; creating mobile-first web designs

Figma has become my daily driver. There are so many great free resources, plugins, features (especially auto-layout), collaboration capabilities, and web access anywhere to my files (since it's a cloud-based program).

Figma lacks in one key department. The one main feature i miss from Sketch is the way cropping and editing of photo is handled. You could use the selector tool and copy/cut a snippet of an image file destructively. Can't do that in Figma. Otherwise Figma is awesome and keeps getting better. I wish the free plan was more robust, too.

Collaborative design, dead-simple to use, AWESOME features like Auto-layout and Components that speed up the design process infinitely. I am a big fan of keyboard shortcuts to optimize workflow and Figma has good ones as well.

Very easy to use in real-time work and easy to learn for the beginners also. It gives us a very nice layout grid.

The main motive of this is it cannot be used without an active Internet connection.

We can test the design using this tool. As well as we can design the pages as given in the figma for various views such as desktop, tab and mobile.

I started using Figma in 2020 and there's no looking back. The most simplest tool ever built for designers. The best thing I like about Figma is how it focuses on the minutest problems of deisgners and provide a solution. Be it wireframing, collaborative brainstorming, hi-fidelity product design, prototype animation or developer hand-off, this tool truely stands out in the design toolbox. Figma is a revolution I must say. My day starts & ends with Figma and I use it every single day.

While i highly recommend Figma to any product designer out there, the only issue I face is - when dealing with files containing numerous artboards, the tool tends to become a bit choppy & laggy.

Figma has been solving even the tiniest problems of designers. But most importantly I would like to mention about figma excelling in collaboration and community features. Helps me collaborate with my design team easily. The community is flooded with millions of helpful design resources.

I used to be a product designer, but I am now a PM. I still use Figma for so many things such as whiteboarding, presentations, mock ups, etc. It's amazing!

The responsiveness of mockups aren't quite perfect.

We use Figma at Tixel for all things desing. We also use it for brainstorming in the design team, but the wider team still uses miro (even though its worse)

Figma is the best cloud based software, this helps me to start a work in 1 device and complete it in another, I like the simple interface of it.

Figma is great but I face lags and glitches when the file gets overloaded.

It is cloud based software and it allows me to work with multiple devices without losing the progress.

Best about Figma is there are multiple pluggins that you can use and do designing with ease and as compared to Adobe XD it is easy to use.

I dislike mainly Figma Community sometimes designers just copy content from there and paste it they do not show there own creativity.

Figma is solving my every problem as a UX UI Designer Figma is one of the best tool I suggest. It has ample number of pluggins and features to help the designer and design a better product with appealing User Interfaces.

Easy to use and super awesome tool that helps us to design creative visuals, landing pages, social media posts, prototypes, vector arts and many more. the collaborative feature of Figma is super awesome which allows multiple designers to work on a same design.

Figma don't have 3d rotation feature but I hope it will come soon

Figma helps us to design website protypes and social media posts for our clients. We also use Figma for designing logos and vector icons.

Figma help us a lot to work on UI design, live prototypes and to organize UX research process. Integration with Slack do nice job to be in touch with all comments and suggestions from the design team.

Figma takes a lot of hardware resources (CPU, RAM) to launch and work with UI design. This still can be improved.

UI Design, UI components, Live prototyping, brainstorming with colleagues

1. Browser AND App base - biggest advantage compared to Adobe 2. User friendly layout 3. Easy to share the link with the team 4. Viewable prototype for the mobile - a game-changer 5. Go to the tool for wireframing and prototyping daily 6. Lots of plugins to choose from

1. Sometimes it freezes while working on a lot of pages 2. Difficult to find the layers if locked 3. It doesnt zoom automatically when an icon/image is pasted on the figma file, becomes hard to locate on the screen

1. Ease to share files with clients and team members. 2. Advanced prototyping with multiple variations 3. Mobile viewable prototypes 4. Since browser-based, very quick mockup creation to pitch to clients 5. Free for everyone to use, explore and learn User eXperience 6. Ability to see current viewers on the file, helps in keeping check on the resource file 7. The auto layout feature is game-changing - responsiveness has become easier than ever

You don't need to spend years to work on it.

With libraryies were a little easy to find.

This tool allows me to design every high difintion idea boards, banners, posts, logos easily.

One of the best UI/UX designs I have ever come across. It is so smooth to use and creates flawless results. I've used it in multiple projects to create visually appealing graphics and designs. A must tool for designers and marketers- truly!

While once you have learned how to use it, its easy to use- the initial process of learning is pretty hard. Moreover, it is quite expensive as well to use if you want a subscription version I'd say

Helps create graphic designs to enhance business visuals

Figma is a versatile platform that helps me work with my team to design my brand. What makes it unique is how easy it is to use because although I don't have designing experience I'm still able to understand most of its feature and use them.

Not much that I dislike. Everything so far that I have used has been great. After using the app one thing I would ask for is greater accessibility when it comes team work

Its helping me use the platform to collaborate with team members and brainstorm UI/UX ideas. Its been great so far in terms of versatility and wouldn't trade for another app out here

One of the best design tools for an UIUX designer. Figma helps to quickly create design prototypes, wireframes and mockup designs to show the product work flow. Its simple to learn and easy to use. Best is best used to create information architecture, app wireframes, website layout design and app prototypes.

Well there is nothing to dislike about figma. Its one of the best tools we use for designing. Its an improved version of Sketch. Initially they were not accepting Indian credit cards which seems to be solved now.

I am using figma to create App Prototypes, WireFrames, Workflows, Information Architecture, Website Layout, Logos and Diagrams. Using figma we design the app layouts before its been sent to a developer to design. Figma provides Material 3 Design kit module as well which gives the rules and format on how every and every element in the app frame work needs to be. It gives us the guidelines which needs to be followed for a good interactive app prototype.

I like how I could apply my passion in designing to Figma. It lets me do certain designs that I want very easily. Creation of pages are fun. Personally, I used Figma even before it gets even more features. Before, the dark mode is not yet existing, but now it provides this feature for better care of eyes of users. I like how easy to nagivate through frames and even play them in slides. Implementing technical processes such as transitions from a click of a button to another frame is easy as well. I also like how it can be integrated with VS Code now, my favorite code editor, which is a large clincher. Since I learned how powerful it can be, I've used it for many of my academic projects before and got also some awards and compliments for doing a good work. I have used it for almost daily, especially when I was doing my capstone project in college. For me, a good tool can bring out the talent and passion of a user, and, certainly, Figma is one of them.

The only downside of Figma that I saw is that it can be a little hard to understand and learn at first, but of course, just like other tools, if you are willing to learn it, you will.

The easiness in designing, prototyping, and building wireframe. It was such a powerful tool that I can use it to do almost every one of my projects concerning designing and software. Plus, it can provide codes, too, and I happen to be a programmer so it really helps me in that manner.

i love it, easy to show my collegues live updates

no major cons, although I wish it was chaper

design

Figma is the best design software I have ever used, It's soo beginner friendly and easy to use and has made my work a lot easier. I do a lot of stuff is Figma from designing websites to designing social media posts for my clients.

Missed offline features and occasional lag interfere with the smooth experience, negatively affecting the platform's overall accessibility and usability.

Figma offers a cloud-based platform that enables team members to collaborate in real-time that allows real-time collaboration among team members. Because of Figma's adaptability to different design projects, I can use it for a variety of tasks, which streamlines my productivity. Furthermore, Figma's dedication to frequent updates guarantees that I take advantage of the newest additions and enhancements, which elevates the whole design experience.

I like the variety of options available in Figma software that we can use to create different kinds of graphics not limited to only web and app designs. I used it for social media banners, posts, and other graphics. The interface is amicable even for a newbie who is starting from zero. I use it for almost every design.

In my opinion, there should be more free features available for beginners like team workplace and importing videos and animations in our designs.

I use it mainly to provide design solutions to my clients. Ease to use with less complexity and user-friendly interface with a variety of options.

The collab features are fantastic! We use it for all pf pur web design needs.

Took a bit of time for our team to adapt to it coming from Adobe products.

The main thing is being able to see the project in real time tather than sending files back and forth.

Figma is essencially the best software for UX/UI Designers. It has everything you need and if you cant't find a feature, well... there's a plugin for it. Fantastic.

Nothing. It is perfect for my way of using it.

Figma helps me realizing visuals for my projects in a really easy way. I like tghe fact that also prototyping is easy.
