Dec 28, 2024
My experiences with Figma has been greatly positive. The design and prototyping tooling brings in ability to collaborate with wireframes model and provide realtime feedback. It is a cloud based intuitive tooling with helps first time users to navigate with ease. We can store multiple wireframes by creating and working on projects with a design library where in assets can be reused and referenced. Automatic versioning is a great feature where we can refer historic edits if needed.

Performance of Figma Across Market Features

Figma Likes & Dislikes

Like

What I like most about Figma is its real-time collaboration, which allows me to comment on wireframes and get immediate feedback from designers and stakeholders. The intuitive interface makes it easy to create and iterate on wireframes quickly. I also appreciate the seamless sharing and version control, which ensures everyone is working from the latest designs.

Like

Good integration with other apps, create interactive workflows in the design prototype.

Like

1. I think how Figma lets me give feedback in real-time and jump into the same design file as my creative team. 2. The UX is straightforward and easy to use for someone who is not a traditional creative. I can easily make edits to product screen copy to ensure they are accurate without needing design experience like I would if I was in Illustrator 3. I can access figma on my phone which allows me to quickly answer comments in transit

Dislike

The main issues I've encountered with Figma are: Large files can sometimes slow down performance, some advanced features have a learning curve for new users, and offline access is limited, which can be inconvenient if internet connectivity is poor or unavailable.

Dislike

None

Dislike

1. When the design file gets really big, Figma is slow to load or respond which is really frustrating. 2. It's tricky to stay organized when creating product screens in figma beyond making new pages/tabs which I don't always want to do. Within a tab, I usually create rows of product screens but organizing it in a comprehendable way for my creatives to understand takes time 3. I don't know where to find version history so if I make a mistake I am relying on hitting the undo button.

    Figma Eases Wireframe Creation But Struggles With Large Pages and Layered Proposals

    4.0
    Feb 2, 2026
    Figma is great for wireframe design. It makes it much easier for our teams to mock up ideas and make improvements to our app. It can be a bit laggy/slow to load when viewing large/complex pages. It could also be helpful if there were easier ways to navigate and preview/view mock-ups more easily (complex designs can get lost in layers and be hard to locate). But otherwise, it’s great for its purpose and fairly user-friendly even for novice designers.

    Figma offers easy design review with minimal challenges in onboarding

    Jan 7, 2026
    I have been using Figma to review web and email designs for around 2 years, and have found it to be exceptionally useful. The ability to quickly comment on designs and navigate around them - including seeing which other users are in the document, and even where their cursors are in real time - is especially helpful.

    Great collaboration, but push updates disrupt workflows

    Aug 15, 2025
    We use Figma at my company and it's kind of industry standard now. I'd say working in a browser or desktop with other coworkers is a huge advantage. Prototyping tools are enough to support out current workflow. We have team members working in 10+ countries, Figma still offers one of the smoothest experiences on the market
