This is a wonderful little tool if you want to have interactive prototypes to include into your profile. I love the slick feel of the website and overall style and theme. This service brings a level of professionalism to any new designer's portfolio. I love the ease of use in creating a mood board. I use this website in conjunction with Pinterest to make some really wicked looking character development boards. I love gathering the images from pinterest and then implementing them into the mood boards on InVision. This really helps with fleshing out new characters for future stories. Additionally, some may say that the tools that come with InVision make for a less complex design but honestly, if you can think a little bit outside of the box then you will find that you can make some fairly complex prototypes.
When it comes to sharing and collaborating with InVision, that's when the service really begins to become nerve wracking. I hear countless stories about people trying to share a simple prototype with their colleagues that are being met with immense frustration.
I use this website for both mocking up Apps for my portfolio. This is a great resource for making professional looking apps. Furthermore, I utilize the mood boards on this website for developing my characters.
The ease of use and the integration with Sketch (Craft). Very good UX (when it works). Also, their blogs, events and communication in general is great, providing great value to the design community and engaging users by going beyond the product.
Unfortunatelly, Invision is quite unestable, in both versions, desktop and mobile. For the desktop version, the links/hotspots fail quite often and for the mobile version, some projects fail to open. Real time synchronization between desktop and mobile, which is a great and useful tool, doesn't work most of the time. We also miss some features like the possibility to disable "swipe" for mobile prototypes, which causes unexpected behaviour on our usability testings.
Despite the technical issues, the benefits are huge for our company. It help us to think, conceptualize, prototype, test and validate new products and features before implement them. It's also the main tool, along with Zeplin, that we use for QA and especially, for project delivering between design and engineering.
Easy to use, online tool for wireframing/prototyping. Ability to have a clickable example to share with stakeholders.
I don't think there's anything I dislike.
The ability to share and collaborate on wireframes, potential designs, and user experience with remote teams.
Great tools for building, sharing, and collaborating on prototypes. Inspect is awesome!
I wish there were more options to simulation animation transitions in prototypes.
Building hifi prototypes and sharing with teammates and stakeholders to gather feedback and present vision.
The collaboration built into the entire product suite experience.
The ability to transfer ownership of a non-enterprise account is not easy. Especially if you need to transfer ownership because of role change, promotion, of leaving a company.
I work on the product design of a software as a service as well, and it allows me to post concepts, brainstorms, and visual prototypes easily, then collaborate efficiently around them.
It's super easy to pick-up and use, for the designer AND the "critic." Easy to annotate and collaborate on a design. And a few good options to deliver and demo.
Going to be honest. At the time I last used it, there wasn't user testing/recording... I begged but eventually I had to move on to other things. But now that's addressed, I'm back!
Basic wire-frames for when you are further into your design phase.
I love how I can easily involve a design team along with developers and other stakeholders to produce a more high fidelity design solution with less headaches and clearer understanding. InVision manages to make designer’s jobs easier.
I’d prefer to have more control over animations and and multiple versions of assets, but all in all, the current solution isn’t bad in this regard.
InVision Will help your business reach the finish line more quickly and with more confidence. I think that is what all of this software is really trying to do anyway. You will enjoy a more thorough creative process coming to life with every project because this facilitates what these smart people naturally want to do! Design better stuff!
I use InVision to turn our high-fidelity designs into clickable prototypes and present them to internal stakeholders and clients. It allows us to present our designs in a fun way and really helps to validate the designs at every stage of the process.
Since I'm not a Sketch user, I certainly feel excluded from all the cool features that inVision integrates with Sketch. I would like to see more of these tools integrated with other tools like photoshop.
As a UI/UX designer, I find that inVision it's the best tool to create high-fidelity working prototypes. It's the easiest and best way we have found to present to our clients how their finished product or products will look once going live.
Hotspot templates are an enormous time saver when presenting mockups to clients.
Animations were a little limited, but didn’t take away from the overall experience/ease of use.
Allowing clients to see a design “in action” before it goes to production/code.
I like to add hotspots to create interaction and links between pages. The sections in the project are very useful to organize pages when we have a big project. The comment mode is also useful when we share the project and make it evolve.
A feature is missing in Invision that could be very handy however: we cannot send to anchors in another page. It's only possible to send to a point in the current page.
Invision serves me to present projects to my boss. This allows him to better project in the site and the interactions of the pages.
