“Experiences and Impressiveness of Designing with Figma”

3.0
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

Ease of use. User friendly - can navigate and view proposals and mock ups easily. comments are clear and easy to find and respond to when debating on edits and ideas.

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

It can be easy to get lost in a page - especially if there are multiple screens/wireframe mock-ups on one page. For a novice or non-designer viewing or trying to view the presentation or idea, it can be hard to find the specific section you are trying to view, without a lot of moving the page and zooming in and out. The search function isn't always effective (though that could be specific to the designer's choice of how to label things as they work). It can load very slow or lag if you have complex designs all on the same page

    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

    4.0
    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.

    Collaborative Platform Simplifies High-Fidelity Screen Design and Workflow Management

    5.0
    Feb 23, 2026
    While Figma was brought in before I started with the company & was up an running by the time I arrived, I found it extremely efficient and easy to use. It provides an intuitive platform for visualising hi-fidelity screens which can be accessed, viewed, and edited by various members of the team - allowing for collaborative work with ease. We use Figma to design screens for our app, which are then passed on to the developer to create so we know what we're going to get both visually and journey wise before it's implemented

    Figma Streamlines Teamwork Yet Faces Challenges When Organizing Numerous Comments

    Mar 3, 2026
    Figma is definitely one of the easiest ways to shorten the gap between devs, designers, consultants and business owners when it comes to talking about UX and functionalities. It is really helpful in shaping and sharing ideas between teams, keeping everyone up-to-date and avoiding "lost in translation" issues
