The user experience is easy for collaboration and building product prototypes Pros Figma is a great design tool that helps him collaborate with both engineering, design, and product teams.

MD Translation and Localization Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Invite works once only, subsequently creating an account doesn't fix it" March 22, 2025 2.0 Brief and unfulfilling. Invite worked only once, when I created an account it failed to associate my email address to the file I'd just been using, so my workflow was interrupted while awaiting a fix. Pros Ease of use in the brief first look I got to look at it from using my invite, which then didn't work again. So I was unable to continue. I created an account, which then didn't automatically associate to the file I'd been editing a few days previously (Why would they code it so it did????) Cons Invite worked only once, when I created an account it failed to associate my email address to the file I'd just been using, so my workflow was stopped while awaiting a fix.

I use it together with my designers and it makes collaboration much easier. We only use the free version and honestly we’ve never needed to contact support, which is actually a good sign. It’s a solid tool for UX/UI design and much more practical than older tools like Photoshop. Pros I really like how easy Figma is to use with my designers. The UX is very clean and intuitive, so you don’t need a lot of time to learn it. It’s much more flexible than Photoshop, especially for UI and UX work. Real-time collaboration is a big plus, and even the free version is more than enough for our daily work Cons Sometimes it can feel a bit heavy when files get very big, and performance can slow down. Also, some advanced features are locked behind the paid plans (Only 3 free pages), but for most basic and medium projects the free version is still okay. Switched from [Miro](https://www.capterra.com/p/128955/Miro/) I switched from Miro because Figma keeps my whole workflow in one place. And it’s easier to collaborate with designers and clients in the same file Review Source FM Flavio M. Senior QA Analyst Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Powerful collaboration and sharing tool" March 4, 2026 5.0 Pros Figma is a great tool that allows us to collaborate with design team. I can provide constant feedback to design team, commenting on prototypes that are been developed. Integration with Jira is great, where we can have designs attached to software development tickets and it's quite useful. Also offers reusable components and lots of different libraries. Cons No major issue noticed, but sometimes navigation to different folders can be a bit difficult if you are a new user. Also search tool could be a bit better understand more context queries.

I can make designs and prototypes. My team can work together on the same file. My design are secure. Cons Sometimes it is slow if the design file is big. Some advances features need the paid version.

Review Source RH Ryan H. Creative Manager Banking Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Figma review - March 30, 2025" March 30, 2025 5.0 I love Figma. I use it every day. There are still some little bugs to be worked out, but it's preferable to a program like Photoshop for designers in many ways. Pros I love how easy it is to export entire projects. I can make an entire document in figma, order it the way I want it, and export it right then and there as a PDF. I also like how much easier it is to organize than something like Photoshop. I don't have to worry about organizing my desktop files. It's all right there in Figma. It has become my top-used desktop app. Cons The free version is pretty restrictive. I would like to see more pages and files allowed for people who don't want to pay. It can also be difficult to open shared files. Links automatically open in the browser, and unless you delete your cache and/or cookies, it won't load. Switched from [Adobe Photoshop](https://www.capterra.com/p/229092/Adobe-Photoshop/) I still use Photoshop, but Figma has become my primary editor because it's much easier to manage files and brainstorm in Figma.

Cons Only thing that i don't like Dev mode is not available in free version.

Owner Internet Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent for design web/app concepts" October 1, 2025 5.0 Overall, Figma has been a huge help for us in developing and testing website and app design ideas. It’s easy to use, keeps the team aligned, and saves a lot of time compared to older design workflows. The collaboration features are the real highlight for me. Pros Figma makes it super easy to collaborate on design concepts with the whole team. I really like how simple it is to test different ideas quickly and share them for instant feedback. Being able to invite teammates and let them comment directly on the designs is a big plus. It keeps everyone involved, makes suggestions easier to follow, and keeps the project moving forward. The desktop version is very stable and stays perfectly in sync with the web and cloud, so I can work anywhere without worrying about losing progress. On top of that, the interface is clean and intuitive, which makes creating concepts and prototypes fast and straightforward. Cons It can get a bit slow when working with very large design files. Also, if you want to use certain advanced features or export code, you’ll need to be on a paid plan, which adds extra cost. Review Source Susan M. Software Developer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Figma is the best" March 4, 2025 5.0 My experience has been splendid so far. Figma helps me complete my work on time by providing a variety of tools in one, and also for designers, we have the plugins part where we can run other plartforms to get icons, mockups, and many other activities, like removing backgrounds from images. This is really convenient and comfortable. Pros Figma is easy to navigate and easy to use. It has a wide variety of features in one, like figjam to create low-fidelity prototypes, slides, and all the software tools you need. This is all a software developer needs in one place. Cons Not all font types are available, and when you download some from your local machine, figma does not display all of them. That might be frustrating. When one wants a story mapping boards you have to search online for a beginner it is not diplayed directly on the app. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Social media manager Music Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Design with Figma" February 19, 2025 4.0 Overall it has been an enjoyable experience which has helped my business growth exponentially Pros I love the simplicity and efficiency and options to customize designs to how I want.

Highly encourage product managers to use the HTML to design google extension to capture other UIs to edit. Cons Nothing, the tool is fantastic and I use it daily as a product manager and I love how easy it is to collaborate live with other PMs. Review Source PO Patrick O. Sr. Marketing Specialist Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Figma is like a more collaborative Adobe CC" July 22, 2025 5.0 I've been working with Figma for over three years now. I've used it when working in product design and development, creating graphics to insert into videos, and creating graphics for events and social posts. Once I got the hang of it, it's an essential tool for me in my marketing role. Pros I like how Figma allows you to create very repeatable canvases for creating branded assets. I use Figma to regularly create video graphics and thumbnails, and I can ensure uniformity and quick replication. Cons Not really a dislike, but as a long-time Adobe user, there was certainly a learning curve when transitioning into Figma. The tools are in different places, the methods to select and edit components are different, and the layers act somewhat differently. Review Source DM Dennis M.

Pros Easy to use vector design tool, it's straightforward to work with different shapes, layers and import images as well as the flexiblity on fonts used.
