I like that it is constantly being updated with new features! There have been times when I've thought about switching to Sketch or Figma, but I always find myself coming back to XD! I look forward to seeing XD improve over time! Pros Whether I'm working on a school assignment or a work project; I love working with XD since it gives me the ability to easily share my file with my teammates. I like that it easily works alongside Photoshop and Illustrator. It helps brings my ideas to life so I can send a video or a link to the prototype to a teacher, classmate, or employer. Cons I would really like to see Adobe XD match Figma's software and for the user interface to look as attractive as Sketch's. Adobe XD needs better plug-ins since there are many that are buggy or with low ratings. Lastly, I don't like that to see my prototype on my phone it has to be connected to my computer.

I used to create more Prototype and user flows Pros When it comes to Adobe Product, It all says how perfect the app will be. Perfectly crafted and very minimalistic app Cons Less option for Prototype, I would like to have more option Alternatives considered [Sketch](https://www.capterra.com/p/171364/Sketch/) Reason for choosing Adobe XD It has an unlimited free version in case I didn't buy the premier version Review Source AT Alan T. ux designer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ux designing with adobe xd" February 13, 2023 4.0 very good Pros its ease of use and integration with other adobe apps and its built in 3d capabilities Cons its pricey and expensive to use and needs a better pricing plan Review Source DH Diane H. CMO Computer Games Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Prototype perfection" July 18, 2022 5.0 I use it daily with no plans of stopping Pros If you’ve used the Creative Suite, transitioning to XD is a breeze. The software is solid, consistent and can make an investor forget that they are looking at a prototype. Not so with other prototype products. It’s components functionality is a time saver. Cons Mobile browser sharing is “unfortunate”. The headers and footers make viewing the prototype clunky and problematic. Requires downloading the XD app and that’s a big problem for focus groups. Wish it had better video integration and animation control. Alternatives considered [SketchUp](https://www.capterra.com/p/211798/SketchUp/) Reason for choosing Adobe XD Better product. The other products made a prototype look sophomoric.

December 4, 2018 5.0 Since this came with my Adobe Creative Cloud subscription, it would have been a waste of money to not utilize it when the opporutinty for web development and planning came up. I'm really glad I used Adobe XD for the projects that I used it for as it really helped run everything run faster. I would say this was very beneficial to our organization! Pros Prior to building the website for a club in my workplace, I had to find a way to visually present how the layout of the website would be so that the website could be created later. In order to do this, I was able to use Adobe XD and I found myself to have found great results using this! I was able to create a realistic replica of a website that we could use for reference when creating our real website. This was also great for allowing us to see how the website would look on different devices. Cons What I liked least about this software is that unless you are a professional graphic designer, you may have a very difficult time being able to navigate around Adobe XD. When I first began using this, I had no idea how to get started in creating the website that I wanted to create. This was due to the fact that Adobe provides next to no tutorials or guidelines on how to get started on this.

It makes the whole process really easy. From wireframing and creating a rough prototype of the app, to creating animations and interactions between the different frames. There are so many widget packs that are included in the software itself so you can freely choose from those. The data syncing feature is one of my favorites as it allows more than 1 person to edit at a time. It is especially useful when we are syncing work between multiple colleagues since it helps to ensure everyone is looking at the latest version of work. I used Adobe XD to create multiple prototypes and prototyping is a feature that I use most frequently. Cons I think that overall while the software was easy to use, there are still so many undiscovered features that are not shown in the tutorials included unless you research much deeper. I think if there was a more detailed navigation bar or tutorial it would have been better.

It also has a supportive community and loads of add-ons, even for the inexperienced. Cons The inability to export projects to PSD is a major drawback. Overall, the functionality and file export are inadequate. Prototyping is seriously inadequate, for instance, having to describe each button state while using standard widgets is annoying and a waste of effort. Review Source Vinicius L. UX Designer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The only tool for product design I consider using" June 10, 2021 4.0 I use Adobe XD since the beginning. It has started as a very simple tool with very simple features, but they work very hard since then to make it more and more complete. It seems that they test very well all the new features before they roll them out, The result seems to be a very simple tool with a boatload of well buit features Pros Adobe XD is to me, by far, the best product design creation tool in the market. I love how it has all features you find in other similar softwares, but always with a simpler approach Cons That doesn't have a dark mode, it would be very helpful Review Source Joseph M. Web Designer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I personally like XD a lot better than Figma" February 13, 2023 5.0 Pros I know the world is moving to Figma, but I am stuck on XD. I find the entire experience is easier, especially when it comes to making effects. Cons Nothing really. The price could be lower considering there are free alternatives, but if you already pay for the Creative Suite, then you already have it. Review Source JCZ John Cedric Z. UI/UX Designer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Adobe XD Review" November 27, 2021 5.0 Overall my experience in Adobe XD is good. I use it when i'm just starting working out in my prototype projects. Pros Adobe XD is very easy to use specially for those who start learning UX/UI. navigations and controls and very easy to understand. Cons I personally didn't like the collaboration tool for XD. Switched from [Figma](https://www.capterra.com/p/175027/Figma/) Figma had a very easy collaboration tools unlike Adobe XD Review Source Nicole A. Senior Graphic Designer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Got me through Grad School!" February 5, 2022 5.0 Great experience. Grateful that Adobe created this software! Pros I love the ease of use of this software, the similarities with the other Adobe programs helped me to learn the software while I was going through grad school for Interactive Media. I used it for every project I had and I was able to create great prototypes with it. Cons I didn't have much I didn't like, the only thing was that creating assets was a little confusing at first but I got it down pat Switched from [Sketch](https://www.capterra.com/p/171364/Sketch/) The subscription to Adobe was a good incentive and I didn't have to continue paying for a license every year. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Vice President Broadcast Media Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good for UI UX Developers " August 9, 2021 5.0 Pros It has a variety of plugins that let you convert and export your design to code. The recently added flutter plugin is the best addition to the plugins we can convert the code for app dev and just have to make some minor changes. Cons It has recently been made paid for by adobe which is stopping students from working on the platform. They should provide a student discounts. Review Source TT Timmy T. Software Developer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Misses key design tools, but still gets the job done professionally. " July 21, 2020 4.0 Mocking up console screens and user dialogue boxes with this program is effective, but sometimes make me wish for a more fleshed-out version of an animation software, rather than a skin-deep but fast tool like Adobe XD Pros Adobe XD is unique in its capabilities since it does not have to use layers like Photoshop or other similar design suites. Without layers, changes can be made quickly and easily by managers like myself, or sent back for quick revision to other designers without a full photoshop-sized file. Cons When using this software, it's impossible to animate between pages, files, or stills that would otherwise be connected by transitions, shading, or animation techniques. So one is really just guessing what kind of scene will flow into the next effectively. Reason for choosing Adobe XD Adobe comes with the cloud suite of other products by Adobe, which are extremely useful and necessary fr our daily business operations. Review Source TZ Thira Z. Graphic Designer Graphic Design Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Experience Using Adobe XD" June 27, 2022 5.0 overall this software is better than another prototype software because its cheaper than another software, and easy to use Pros Easy create prototypes for mobile and websites Cons Easy to lack when used and the file size is too large Review Source MM Matthew M. Senior Operations Manager Insurance Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Bring your design projects to life!" August 21, 2019 5.0 It has been a huge boost to the efficiency of our project development(s) by allowing insights into the functionality of the designs before it has actually been put into production. It has bridged the gap between us and the IT Developers. In the past, what we submitted versus what was delivered was not always on the same page - we got what we asked for, but not necessarily how we wanted it. With Adobe XD we can give what we want, as well as showing how we want it to look and function. This has allowed for more projects to be completed, and less that need revised after the fact. Pros The ability to see interactive views of the projects you are creating. This allows much deeper insight into how the design of your projects will actually function. In using Adobe XD we have been able to catch things we needed to change that would just have not been possible looking at a flat 2D version. You're able to share your designs securely with stakeholders, and get comments. Cons I have not found anything I dislike as of yet. The only thing I would say is it has so many options it can be daunting, but the potential of using them all is exciting! Review Source koshal S. UI/UX Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Adobe XD is a software to design web and mobile interfaces and wireframes." May 16, 2019 4.0 My overall experience with software is great. It gives you clean platform for creating your ui/ux designs more beautifully and perfectly. Pros XD is amazing with some great features below 1. It has super easy and clean workarea where you can create multiple artboards and work on all screen. 2. It also allow you to prototype the design by simple triggering method to see how it functions. 3. It comes up with very useful ui tools which makes your design more professional. Cons Xd has some cons, which are 1. it doesn't let you to see a prototype live view, You have to create a link or save it on creative cloud. 2. It's not a fully design based software, You can only make vector based graphics for you web and mobile. 3. It has very less number of tools and functions instead of other software like sketch. Review Source Earl D. Designer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "UI/UX Design Tool Done Right" October 22, 2019 5.0 I love XD, UI/UX design is in high demand right now. Pros UI/UX Design is incredibly easy with Adobe XD. My favorite part is being able to design for multiple platforms and screens under a single project. Xd is the new industry standard. Cons Image and text editing can be a bit tricky using XD. You end up having to do quite a bit of designing using photoshop or illustrator and importing it into XD. But this is no real issue because Adobe products are meant to be used that way. Review Source Ezekiel L. Product Design Engineer Accounting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Product Design Engineer Review for Adobe xd" May 10, 2022 5.0 My experience has been satisfactory so far Pros If you are adept with designing, adobe xd will be like "returning back home" even for new users, as it's features are easy to navigate and use once you are aware of the tools in designing Cons They could make use of more drag and drop for rapid prototyping Reason for choosing Adobe XD Quality is better (from reviews) Switched from [Figma](https://www.capterra.com/p/175027/Figma/) Company required Review Source Yeni O. Product Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Combine with illustrator,to get industry standard ui/ux prototypes." February 25, 2018 5.0 Pros Adobe XD eases work needed in designing interfaces for app. and web development.I also like how I was able to get started with this program , as the user interface was similar to that of photoshop and illustrator ; which are both Adobe products ; thus ,I love that Adobe stuck with its familiar Ui in XD too. By combining this program with Adobe illustrator ,I am able to make my ui/ux prototype pages interact with each other seamlessly, thus providing the perfect prototype designs to the team. Cons I still cannot imagine while I am unable to insert html codes , gif or video format files into my designs. Review Source ODA Obed Destine A. Software developer Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Adobe XD review" February 11, 2023 4.0 Had a great experience as it helped me a lot in so many projects. Pros The ability to export designs and assets to code. Cons Limited design features for creating responsive UIs. Review Source Zac R. Interaction Designer Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Still needs work" July 17, 2019 3.0 We use it to mock-up interface designs for software and app designs. Pros I like the integration with other Adobe products. It’s nice that it works so well when using assets from Illustrator or moving assets to AfterEffects. I also like that it feels familiar, like the other Adobe products. Cons I hate the sharing options. I’ve had so many times when I’ve shared a project and the other user can’t access it. Or never receive the invite. It’s so frustrating! I’ve yet to work on an interface problem that didn’t require collaboration, so this feature is a must.

Good Interactive UI Cons License is required for pro features usage Review Source UTKARSH S. UX Designer Design Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Go for it if you an adobe fan" July 30, 2019 3.0 After using this for a week and comparing it with competitors like Figma and Sketch I have realized that this has the best prototyping tools. You don't have to take your designs to some other software and you can do everything within XD itself. Pros This is really a well-designed product designing tool with all the required tools and functionalities. We have been using Adobe Photoshop before this tool and this has really been a game-changer. It even supports the required plugins that make our lives easier. These plugins are not that advances when compared to Sketch but it gets the job done. Prototyping in XD is extremely simple and effective which saves a lot of time and efforts. Cons Overall this is a perfect software but the one thing that could have been better (especially when compared to Figma) is that its not online which makes it difficult to share files among the team and collaborate. I also find it a little complex to use as compare to Figma.
