Visual Paradigm helps software development teams to capture correct requirements and transform them into accurate design, thus helping developers to build right software according to requirements.
UX tool for businesses of all sizes that helps with content design via features such as auto animation, responsive resize, repeat grid, and more.
It supports all UML diagrams which is really good as this is important if you're in the field of software development.
The lack of collaborative feature in the platform is something that makes it a little underwhelming.
Overall experience with visual paradigm is great. I have been using this software for 3 years and its visual representation is quite charming if i compared to other diagram Softwares.
The only issue I have is that I always find it hard to work with the shortcuts provided to some of the tools. Either the shortcuts don't work or it's hard to find the correct shortcut.
I tried many different software that were recommended by my friends for diagramming but Visual Paradigm is by far the best tool, especially if you are looking to draw UML diagrams.
Configurations and some tools are difficult to achieve in the program.
Ve used visual paradigm for study and am amazed at how useful this product is for software modelling.
The connections on diagrams can be a little strange at times, and hard-coded structures have some limitations.
Overall, Adobe xd is an amazing UI designing software that gives thousands of features that just make the overall experience of the software amazing.
When it freezes and you loose what you had just been working on. That typically is a hard thing if you have been working on something for days or hours.
The preview and prototyping features are also wonderful additions. The area to point type buttons are a great addition, which I would like to see in every Adobe product.
You have to install it with Adobe Cloud I find it so inconvenient because you forced to stay in their environment.
It has a lot of tools to save time and a great community to help you if you don't have a lot of experience. Mobile tools are awesome.
The sharing option was terrible and did not update live.
Help with prototyping and structuring documentation in various design types. Help create fantastic interactions for an extraordinary user experience.
You can't push up singular dartboards - you have to push up all which is horrendously inconvenient.
Nicole D.: Hi, my name is Nicole, and I'm a business coach and consultant helping wellness practitioners build thriving brands online. I give Adobe XD a four out of five stars. Before Adobe XD, I was using a combination of Figma and Illustrator. Illustrator worked well enough, but I liked the flexibility of Adobe XD, and the specificity for building websites, and the prototyping abilities. With regards to Figma, I prefer XD over Figma simply because I teach it in a graphic and web design college, and it's so much easier to teach, and to learn as a new student. One of the biggest reasons I chose to continue with Adobe XD was mainly because of its learning curve. It's very easy to learn, it's very quick to pick up, especially if you're already used to the other Adobe products. It gives you all the functionalities that you'd need for basic prototyping, and even more than basic, up to high fidelity prototyping, without all the bells and whistles that other softwares offer which can be useful. But if you're small scale or you're teaching how to do prototyping to new to UX and UI designers, it's an easier tool to use. Especially if you already have a subscription for other Adobe products, Adobe XD is extremely easy to get started with. All you do is add it to your desktop or your mobile device, or your tablet, and it's ready to go. You're already paying for the membership, so there's no extra fees. And so I do appreciate that. If you're thinking about trying Adobe XD for your business purposes, and you're like a lot of people who are a little bit intimidated trying to learn a new software, don't be afraid. Adobe XD is so easy to pick up. Like I said, if you're already using other Adobe products, the interface is so familiar that the learning curve won't take you very long to pick up.
