March 29, 2018 3.0 Learned simple things about creating applications. Pros The software generally does not have a high learning curve allowing for people to learn how to make simple applications. Of course it is nothing too advanced, but helps generate interest in people who would've thought it was impossible before. Cons Some things were laggy depending what platform you were using. Some features of indigo were hard to use or hard to link. This was especially so if you made a mistake as some issues were unforgiving and took time to fix or recreate. Another issue was when trying to get multiple users to work on the same project. Some things weren't transferred correctly and had to be redone multiple times.

" March 30, 2018 5.0 I was able to make realistic, yet simplistic working prototypes using this software. Pros It is does not have a steep learning curve; that is, it is easy to get the hang of within a few minutes of playing around with it, especially if you have used a similar software before. Cons Downloading the software was a tedious process, because I had to install and update several systems and program before I could even download Indigo.

April 5, 2018 5.0 I was able to learn rapid prototyping as a student without paying for a product I couldn't afford or losing my project after a short (7-30 day) free trial. It speaks well of Infragistics that you support learning. Pros It's very intuitive and user-friendly. Also, it's great that Infragistics makes their products available for students free of charge for one year. Cons I haven't found anything I don't like yet, though I have only used it for wireframing so I can't speak to all of the features. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Digital Communication Intern Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy, useful, advantageous " April 4, 2018 5.0 Pros The ability to share prototypes and get almost immediate feedback has helped me multiple times with my academic and professional work. Everything is simple and easy to understand, even to people like me who know only basic coding. Cons When using it on Windows I cannot use copy and paste on my prototypes. Also when using responsive layouts, my images and background images disappear in screenshots. Review Source MH Mike H. CTO Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Indigo Studio" May 18, 2020 5.0 Pros Ease of use, ability to rapidly produce insightful wire-frames for development teams. Cons None. It covers all my needs. Review Source SC Stanley C. Student Full Time Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Fast and easy to learn. Indigo Studio is a tool for beginners and advanced users alike." March 30, 2018 5.0 I understood how to prototype design without using any programming language. This is very important in the field of technology because not everything is about coding. Design for the user experience is a heavy part that the modern world seems to be dropping the ball on. I believe indigo will allow my ideas to grow. Pros The thing I love most about Indigo Studio is the interactive ability to click and select any type of icons/widgets/buttons without going into detailed tools selection. Some other programs that have prototype design require the designer to learn different snips of code, whereas Indigo allows anyone to just pick up the software and use it. Cons I wish the software had more features. There is already a lot of things indigo can do, however, if I wanted more specifics, such as a dynamic flowing interface that changed different buttons and widgets based on swipe, Indigo does not have a tool for that. Indigo does have all the basics for buttons and features for different prototypes, but I feel this can grow with time. Review Source Heidi L. Owner/Inventer Renewables & Environment Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I recently had a product to patent and need some viable prototype designs, it was painless" July 20, 2018 4.0 I was able to see my product in a finished design prototype schematic without the cost and hassle of involving a 3rd party firm to do this for me Pros The end product and design drawings are amazing and detailed and was less expensive than hiring a professional service Cons The software is a little difficult to navigate for someone who is not IT trained or familiar with similar types of software Review Source MR Mario R. Frontend developer Computer Software Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Angular UI framework (Ignite UI)" May 11, 2020 4.0 In general seems I would expense too much time to learn it and not sure if there's a real value on it. Probably I need to evaluate it versus a real project to find its real value. Pros I was trying to create different components on the SPA app and seems a good co-relation with the Angular UI framework. Cons I found hard another abstraction layer on top of the Angular Framework. At some point I felt like is difficult to engage with the tool. Reason for choosing App Builder It would be helpful to have someone that is expert in the field to help me understand the different approach of the existing products and how Indigo.Design matches the best values and depending on my own business principles might be find value of adapt it into our UI logic. Review Source Jeffery H. DevOps Engineer Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "pretty good" March 29, 2018 4.0 fast prototyping to a team in brussels from cali Pros The software was designed in a way that made it easy to prototype, and also easy to make fast updates. Cons hrmmm... code generation from it is not too flexible. If I could generate code that worked with android fully, using differnetly layout designs, that would be cool. i.e. fragments. Review Source PT Pierre T. CTO Automotive Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "First attempt at using App Builder failed completely" February 25, 2022 1.0 It was disappointing. Pros It was easy to start designing a decent-looking UI. Cons The system to add data sources was poorly documented and cumbersome to use. Then some modification in there made the whole app unusable. Review Source JC Jenny C. Lab Consultant Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Simple, easy to use and gest the job done" April 2, 2018 5.0 Being able to create professional-looking works Pros I like its versatility and ease of use the most. Even as a complete beginner, when I first the product, it was very accessible and provided many options that helped me polish my work to make it look professional. Cons I can't quite think of any cons at the moment. I do wish some there was some sort of way that could make transitioning easier to maneuver Review Source VR Veronika R. Database Team Lead Information Technology and Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "The best UI tool that I've used lately " February 25, 2022 5.0 With all the tooling and design solutions that are provided, I was free to pursue my creative ambitions and not deal with the trouble of trying to figure out complicated software. Giving a powerful way to customize each part of your application was of great value to me. Pros The produced Angular code quality and ease of use. Cons There could be more predefined apps and app templates Review Source GS Gabriel S. UX-strategist Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good features but too slow" March 30, 2018 3.0 Pros I like that you can make quite advanced prototypes. Cons My biggest concerne is with performance. It is painfully slow to work with and that is the main reason we abandoned it in my consultancy. Review Source MP Myles P. Solution Architect Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Prototyping tool" May 14, 2020 5.0 Early design of apps. Project got shelved in the meantime due to other business opportunities, but minimal costs. Pros Easy to build a realistic version of the proposed software and then demonstrate its features. Can also use to test ideas and alternative views/implementations. Most importantly things like buttons etc can take you to other views/screens/pages - so can get the real flow of an application. Cons When I last used it could not do different states on the same page so be able to hide/show different controls/portions of the page. Review Source LJ Lyndell J. Business Owner Computer Software Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Free Trial is a amazing " February 14, 2023 4.0 Pros Easiest software I worked with since starting Cons Nothing bad I can say about this software Review Source BA BRENDA A. Business Implementation Consultant Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I have worked in Balsamiq and made the switch to Indigo and LOVE the enhanced features." April 3, 2018 5.0 Ease of use. Extremely ease to design and setup interactions. Testing is a breeze! Pros The ability to bring Balsamiq work into Indigo is a huge plus. Also the ability to have features and animation abilities that are very easy to configure. The training videos are a GREAT! Cons The only downside is I found it difficult to copy an element without making a screen part. Could be my lack of experience. Review Source AR Ajith R. Student Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I have used indigo studio for my project, i was able to create a fully functional prototype in hours" March 31, 2018 5.0 Pros The interface is neat and simple tp use. Various customization options are available. It was easy for me to understand the first time i opened Indigo studio. It was pretty easy to navigate around. I was able to create my prototype in less than 5 hours. I was able to correct the design and other functionality with the help of this prototype, such as animation, Transitions and editable contents. i was able to receive feed back from my faculty members and i was able to change to UI instantly. I was able to present the entire product which was actually equal to the final product. Cons Sometimes there is a lag while constructing huge prototype. Paid version are quite expensive wish they were a bit more cheaper. Review Source AE Alfredo E. CEO Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Pegaso" May 11, 2020 5.0 La curva de aprendizaje puede ser alta Pros Lo que más gusta a mis clientes y colegas es que podemos simular exactamente cómo quedará la aplicación Cons Todo muy bien. Tal vez la curva de aprendizaje puede ser alta en un principio. Review Source JV Joris V. Developer Information Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Nice and easy to use product" May 12, 2020 4.0 Pros It's easy to use, you can create nice designs and you can even import it into an Angular project. Everything is quite straight-forward and you feel you know what you are doing and that you are in control. Cons The import feature is a bit lacking. It was quite annoying to get the routing part working correctly and I don't like the fact that each css file for each page contain basically the same elements as the other css files from other imported pages. This could cause a quite big load on the network traffic. Review Source VM Verena M. Student Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Good for school projexts" April 6, 2018 4.0 Pros This is helpful in doing a run though with my team mates to see what we're missing. It's also helpful in getting feedback. Cons It's is difficult to collaborate with others. There should also be additional features for the mobile stuff. Review Source Dobromira D. Junior UI/UX Designer Design Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Indigo. Design review " October 25, 2021 5.0 I have conducted a user testing of my prototype. Like I say, no option for mobile phones users. Pros It was a trial for my student project. I have worked with another prototyping tool. Cons There are easier tools on the market. I don't lile that the user can reach my research only on computer. The software does not count mobile phones users. Review Source RO Raimo O. Owner, CEO/CTO Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I am using this to design UI for desktop and mobile. Have tested also other sw, this is the best. " April 3, 2018 5.0 Design and documentation of the user interface of my software. Pros Lots of features, nice collection of UI elements, I especially appreciate there is a separate collection of iOS elements. Cons Perhaps a little bit too expensive to renew. Learning how to use some more advanced features takes some time, it would be nice if there were some video tutorials (perhaps there are). Review Source Saishree B. Full time Student Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I liked my overall experience with Indigo Studio. I found it to be very easy to learn and use. " March 29, 2018 4.0 Pros What I like most about this software is the graphics and overall functionality. I found it easy to use Indigo and create designs and outlines for a potential project. Cons What I like least about this software is when I finish creating my design, I find it a little hard to see how my design works. Meaning, it becomes a little confusing to use execute the project and seeing all the actions I have implemented in it. Review Source BK Brian K. Student Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great rapid prototyping tool" April 5, 2018 4.0 Pros The speed and ease at which you can produce a rapid prototype is great. It gives you a way to share ideas and concepts without taking the time needed to code the entire project. Cons I wish it was more tightly integrated into a production environment to help expedite the creation process as well. Review Source CZ Connie Z. student Design Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "pretty good" November 1, 2021 4.0 very good i used it for school projects Pros easy to set up and start using. nice pre installed designs easy to drag and drop Cons the premade draggable ui is iphone based, no android support Review Source Similar Products Featured
