FigJam vs SketchWow: Which is a better fit?

David D

Director, Guest Technology

FigJam is best when used alongside Figma, of course. The perfect integration between designs and prototypes and whiteboards makes for a seamless end-to-end process toolset.

The lack of advanced version control and history tracking can be a pain point when trying to revert to previous iterations of our designs.

I love the fact that I could work with a group of people on the same project while using figjam, i haven't found other collaborative tools like this, but its really great.

There is no offline version, so if you don't have internet connection, you will not be able to work on any updates.

It also has a great community where you can find great templates for canvasses and frameworks. It helped us a lot with doing team workshops.

I'm still missing some functionalities that other competitors might have.

I love that FigJam is versatile as a product, even for someone like me who isn't directly involved in UX design. As a 3D artist, I still need tools to help me organize my ideas and problem-solve.

The cursor chat feature can be a little annoying at times, especially during large discussion sessions.

Bought it on a whim as it was such a good price and it’s been amazing. Have used it in presentations where it got great feedback as well as diagrams and informatics.

Most of my initial complaints have already been fixed with the updates.

Quality and variety of images is quite good and getting better all the time. I like the variety of customization tools.

SketchWow Elimenates and Destorys Weak Communications.

I like the hand drawn style of designs that you can create as they look different to other popular design tools like Canva. It helps to make my offer stand out visually and looks super custom.

I have no idea if either are technically possible.

Pros about SketchWow are the pricing, the assets you receive from each update that can be used, the user friendliness of creating much more fun pieces for slides/presentations.

There are not enough templates out there but that keeps growing with the updates, so no real cons as far as Im concerned.
