### "Effective screen design tool"

August 4, 2020

5.0

Overall love using this tool - despite a number of other great options out there on the market.

Pros

Sketch shines with it's plugin and third party integrations. If you can think it, there's probably a plug-in for that. This makes the program more powerful and customizable.

Cons

It can be buggy, particularly during new releases.

Reason for choosing Sketch

### "Sketch for the win!"

February 18, 2021

5.0

Great experience! I would recommend it to any new and proven designer.

Pros

Sketch is quite easy to learn and use. I transitioned from Photoshop Creative Suite to mainly Sketch for all of my app design needs - web, mobile, and print design. To date, I can't see myself transitioning to another product for a few years.

Cons

An easier learning curve would be nice to discover how to implement plugins and use different assets earlier on.

### "Great tool for UI design"

March 12, 2019

5.0

We use Sketch for various tasks, starting from prototyping UI and up to producing marketing visuals. It's a lightweight and yet powerful alternative to Illustrator.

Pros

\- Easy to use and yet powerful tool; - Great to convert design mockups into code with Zeplin integration; - Low entry barrier: even non-designers can start creating mock-ups in almost no time.

Cons

Nothing in particular, it's a very robust software.

### "The best UI/UX tool for mocking up and prototyping designs."

March 29, 2019

5.0

I think Sketch is a fantastic program. It's easy to use, it's well priced, and the application and files never feel bloated or heavy (I'm looking at you, Photoshop). I'd recommend this to almost any designer!

Pros

I like the price, I like how easy it is to use, and I like how light-weight the software is.

Cons

I wish they would give users a bit more of a preview as to what features they're working on. I also wish their prototyping features were a bit more robust.

### "Expensive but easy to use"

May 10, 2020

5.0

I like Sketch since it is super easy to use and it save me a lot of time of development since I discuss with the client before developing new features.

Pros

Clear interface; super easy to create new mockup; reusable components; vector graphic support; the export is complete and it is easy to find the quality I want;

Cons

no CSS export; difficult to work in a team if people have different versions of Sketch; the price is a bit high;

Alternatives considered

[Adobe XD](https://www.capterra.com/p/168423/Adobe-XD/)

Reason for choosing Sketch

I prefer Sketch since it is super easy to use, but the Adobe ecosystem is gorgeous

### "Sketch is quickly become the benchmark for design tools"

April 18, 2019

5.0

My experience with Sketch thus far has been smooth. It's easy to provision licenses and to communicate with their team about features I'd like to see.

Pros

My daily workflow involves opening sketch every day. It's hard to think of a tool that measures up in capability and ease of use. Great for designing software.

Cons

I wish there were more tutorials and accessibly in-app help. Also a cloud based version would be nice when working on the go.

### "a revolutionary software to replace photoshop for web design"

August 2, 2019

5.0

The problem of having multiple PSD files and not having an easy way to export assets

Pros

I like that the software was built thinking in developers needs, and not only the designer needs. I love the feature of Copy CSS or Copy SVG code. it makes the work easier.

Cons

I don't like the selection tool, sometimes is hard to know what layer you're selecting.

### "Ok for certain projects but we have moved away to other tools"

July 29, 2022

4.0

Pros

Its one of the best for vector / graphic design. If you want pixel perfect its still a great tool.

Cons

Figma is just better at integrating the design process. With sketch we have problems moving the files over for interactive prototyping on other tools, often have issues with people who are not mac users accessing the files. It's not that we don't use it anymore, its more the right tools for the right job. But we rarely find ourselves needing sketch now. For most of our work Figma is better, if we need high spec its Axure. We mostly come across Sketch in companies which have legacy software / long term license arrangements.

### "Great tool for prototyping"

### "Very good! "

August 26, 2019

4.0

Good, but I still use other more classic and well-known design programs.

Pros

What I like most is that it allows you to work in an orderly manner, with different work areas. Something very important for graphic designers

Cons

Sometimes there are shortcuts that don't work. And this is very important since the shortcuts allow to speed up the work.

### "The absolute best for UI design!"

February 2, 2019

5.0

Pros

Sketch is intuitive to use and very robust. The plugins that are available make it a powerhouse of design productivity. It makes designing a breeze and a very enjoyable experience.

Cons

Sketch updates tend to move options around from time to time which can be annoying sometimes because of the muscle memory we've developed.

Pros

The sketch is also great for designing amazing prototypes.- It's user-friendly with a well-optimized workflow framework- Rich in typography, icons, and colors- Also online based- Integration versality (polyvalent )

Cons

\- It still lacks advanced components for wireframing and design mockups- It's expensive - overall design quality is inferior to alternative apps like Figma

### "Somewhere between Photoshop and Illustrator"

May 28, 2019

5.0

I use Illustrator and Photoshop daily so welcomed the chance to try something different. It looks daunting at first glance but is well set out and doesn't take long to get used to.

Pros

This is easy to use if you come from an Adobe background. Things are laid out very differently but are intuitive and it only took us half a day to become confident with it.

Cons

Not a big issue but I found my workflow didn't seem to be as quick in Sketch. Also I found it easier to work with vectors in Illustrator.

Alternatives considered

[Adobe Illustrator](https://www.capterra.com/p/227125/Adobe-Illustrator/)

Reason for choosing Sketch

Quicker workflow.

### "Not very intuitive to use, not the easiest tool to use"

April 12, 2018

4.0

Got the job done that I needed, but if it required me being in the app for more than 10 minutes I would ask a designer for help

Pros

Can make SVGs easily. It is easy to copy another image in and turn that into a file type needed for the project

Cons

I feel like if you are not a designer using this daily it is hard to get tasks done quickly. The layout isn't easy to follow. The functionality for a quick project is not there

### "Great tool for Mobile Design"

March 15, 2018

4.0

Pros

Sketch has become an absolute leader among mobile designers. It is easy to use, has plenty libraries and offers great integrations, which saves tons of time

Cons

Sometimes work with groups of objects can be tiresome, besides, there are still bugs, when the whole app crashes and throws away hours of your work

### "Love Sketch, use it everyday at work"

February 20, 2020

5.0

Sketch is a good tool to use for my work everyday

Pros

Love that it's easy to use and quite fast most of the time

Cons

The integration of Abstract + Sketch slows workflow down because it has a hard time working with large files and sometimes there is no way to avoid larger files. Also need an abstract plugin for updating collections because it doesn't update that screen.

### "Sketch changed the way we do digital design"

September 30, 2019

5.0

My experience with sketch has been great, I'd say it is very developer-friendly and as I can see designers love it too. The interface is great and I began to depend on some of its features.

Pros

\- It's a digital design oriented software - It makes use of symbols, which are great for style guides - Exporting images or SVGs is great - Copying CSS styles is awesome

Cons

\- Sometimes the UI feels unresponsive to selections in deep layers - The way copy/paste works is frustating

### "Sketch is a must have for digital UC and UI Designers. "

December 20, 2018

5.0

Sketch is affordable, useful, and saves valuable time/efficiency.

Pros

Sketch solves a ton of workflow problems for UX/UI designers and makes replicating/altering content way easier.

Cons

I have run into a few versioning issues when importing from sketch to Principle - but other than that Sketch has been a great experience.

### "Powerful design software that is frequently updated."

December 12, 2019

5.0

Sketch has made mocking up new software workflows and designs much more seamless for me and improved the quality of work I am able to produce.

Pros

Sketch is a well-designed and thought-out program with an incredible feature set and supporting ecosystem of 3rd-party developers. It's obvious that the Sketch team is passionate about what they are doing, and the frequent updates and new features that are continuously added to the program are well worth the $100/year subscription.

Cons

Honestly, I really don't have anything bad to say about the software. If you don't understand how to use it, there are plenty of online resources, both on their website and on 3rd-party training courses.

### "Sketch Review"

May 17, 2019

5.0

Pros

Easy to use, coming from using Adobe most of my career the learning curve for Sketch wasn't too difficult. Now I can't imagine using anything else for product design.

Cons

You need to stay on top of updates not just for sketch but also any plugins or tools you use with it. The constant updating sometimes renders some plugins and applications unusable or obsolete without warning.

### "The perfect tool for designing UI"

February 14, 2020

5.0

I just love using sketch. I used to design interfaces (websites and apps) with photoshop. Sheryl opens you to a whole new way of designing, making style changes quick and easy. You can share the Prototype with your client and team making the whole workflow incredibly great!

Pros

Very easy to use interface with all the tools you need. It is constantly updating itself making things easier to do and adding new great features.

Cons

Prototyping has some lacks although there are plugins that work well. Also The fact that it’s only for mac limits the compatibility with other professionals (most programmers use windows pc).

### "Good UI Design Program"

April 3, 2020

5.0

I've used multiple UI design tools trying their different features and capabilities and I like Sketch. It has been the leading tool in the industry for a long time and has a lot of support and plugins and a good community. When Adobe XD came out it forced Sketch to continue to try to innovate and provide new features and I think it's progressed a lot. It's a really well rounded tool.

Pros

A lot of plug-ins and support for the program. Similarities with Adobe Illustrator which most designers are familiar with.

Cons

Prototyping capabilities are severely lacking compared to other available software. Stand alone product that doesn't have a library of software to help integrate and support with (like Adobe XD with other Adobe products)

### "Made the switch!"

March 8, 2020

4.0

Pros

I like how easy Sketch is to understand especially for those of us raised on adobe. It combines elements of what we saw in dreamweaver, photoshop, and illustrator but much more effectively than any web specific product adobe has put out.

Cons

Sometimes the plugins get confusing and difficult to manager. But there’s a plug-in for that ;)

### "A very simple but powerfull design software"

July 19, 2018

5.0

Pros

The simplicity of Sketch is one of the more known qualities, it has very powerfull futures and tools that can set it aside as one of the top design softwares. It has a great pricing plan with 50% for students and teachers, also you don't have to commit for a whole year and has great prices for renewing your license.

Cons

Being a sketch tool, when presenting your work it can be viewed as unfinished or incomplete, but it can be done in no time comparedto other bulkier softwares.
