### "Better Online Whiteboard"

October 17, 2022

5.0

Pros

Flawless, virtually excellent, for working with remote teams and design team collaboration

Cons

Sincerely ? Nothing at the moment, maybe there could be a higher limit for the free plan.

### "Figjam- An easy way to organize your life"

April 26, 2023

5.0

It is a phenomenal product if you wish to make documentation of meetings, ideas and concepts for your organisation. It can even be used for super fast, simple, team presentations. Scrum meetings can also be facilitated.

Pros

Figjam is a whiteboarding tool. In essence, it eases the process of documentation, note-taking and conceptual learning and explanation. It can be used with one of its many preloaded templates or you can use its many tools to craft a whiteboard as you please. It is very intuitive, and everything is click-drag-drop. Easy to learn and easy to teach. There are many tools to allow collaboration and discourse. Audio chat is available as well. Plugins, stickers, and shared files from the community all make it one of the best tools in the space right now.

Cons

Figjam is a well-rounded product. Routine updates and troubleshooting the problems of the community (bug fixes, quality of life) would make it great. A suggestion for this would be to allow users to choose from many themes of the editor, including background texture, colour, and icon styles.

Alternatives considered

[Milanote](https://www.capterra.com/p/165790/Milanote/)[Figma](https://www.capterra.com/p/175027/Figma/)

Reason for choosing FigJam

Figjam has a simpler toolkit than Figma, which is good so that even people without prior design experience can contribute to the process using Figjam. Milanote has most of the same features but its not as collaborative and it's design tools are more restrictive.

### "Surprisingly helpful for my line of work!"

October 1, 2022

4.0

Positive experience overall. Helps me get my ideas down and connect the dots throughout my work processes.

Pros

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. FigJam is handy for that ideation process.

Cons

Perhaps some type of integration with the digital art softwares I use would be another convenient feature.

### "The soon to be market leader in digital canvases?"

October 24, 2022

5.0

Overall a great experience and FigJam is a strong contender for the number one spot of digital canvases in the future.

Pros

FigJam has really developed in a positive way the last year or so since it has been out. The integration into Figma of course being one of the major pros allowing you to keep all your files in one place. This feature is better than one might realise at first but it really solves a lot of problems. For example if you want to collaborate with stakeholders who have seen your design in Figma previously they will quickly feel right at home with FigJam.

Cons

There is one issue that I have with FigJam and that is how you share access to collaborators that do not have a Figma account. This feature is missing today but (hopefully) on the way and would make a world of difference. As it is today you have to create a Figma account to access FigJam which just makes some stakeholders more reluctant to use the software.

### "Creative and easy to use digital whiteboard"

November 2, 2023

5.0

Pros

Figjam has made working in teams seamless because information can be easily presented to everyone. Most people in the world are visual learners, so having a tool like this helps to understand the work between different teams better. In our company, we use Figjam to design interfaces, ideate and collaborate. Instead of using a physical whiteboard where information gets deleted, we can present our diagrams on Figjam and store it permanently. Figjam has become an integral part of our working methodology. The ease of scrolling, zooming and exporting information is seamless and therefore I consider it better than its alternatives.

Cons

I would like to have better use of Tables in Figjam. Currently, the tables are very simplistic. It would be interesting to have more functions within each 'cell' of a table. Kind of like excel, or maybe some form of integration with it.

### "Digital Whiteboard for your needs"

July 28, 2023

5.0

Pros

It's an easy-to-use digital whiteboard to brain-dump ideas and plan out project cycles. It is also easy to implement into Figma whenever we need a quick reminder on ideas we want to highlight.

Cons

It's hard to find something I didn't like about Figjam but if I had to say something it would be it could be confusing for people who are not used to using whiteboards like this and having to make an account

### "Useful for whiteboarding"

September 22, 2022

5.0

Pros

I like that I can pull up a FigJam file for ideation, if needed, before jumping into using Figma. There's also many useful templates.

Cons

I wish some of the functionalities were as sophisticated as Figma itself (changing fonts, colors, size of shapes, etc).

### "FigJam - The sweet sauce of Figma - intuitive, capable, and flexible! "

November 20, 2024

5.0

FigJam has been helpful to me when sketching out rough wireframes, meting out ideas and concepts, as well as creating flowcharts, diagrams, and site maps. The software is both extremely intuitive and beautifully detailed as well as capable. It also has a steep learning curve for beginners but offers a great support base thanks to the Figma community (where users can ask questions, offer tips, and share file/templates and feedback to fellow users.

Pros

FigJam, a feature and product of Figma is an ingenious and indispensable tool when it comes to UX/UI design and development. I find it to be more intuitive that Adobe XD, yet in some ways similar to Adobe Illustrator. Both FigJam and Figma allow me to focus on my passion - graphic design - while also creating innovative and fulfilling experiences without writing a single line of code. The software does all the heavy lifting for me but also has the option for me or any collaborator I'm working with to step in and add code, if needed.

Cons

The most frustrating thing about FigJam and Figma is the clunky file/project management system. The software insists on dividing my work into groups (workgroups) even though I am a team of one. And, because I am a student, my account is limited unless I'm willing to ante up the full subscription price. Pricewise, Figma/FigJam is a huge investment - moreso than the whole Adobe Creative Suite combined. Yet, the capability of the software outweighs its competitor. I wish that the software was at a lower price point for those just getting started and are not part of a large team situation. Tiered subscription options should be offered with the ability to add-on alacarte features/smaller packages. Doing so would allow Figma customers to customize their experience and optimize their loyalty because the flexibility offered would engender good faith and support.

### "Is FigJam Worth It? A deep dive into one of the Best Ideation and Collaborative tools on the Market Today"

August 4, 2025

5.0

Pros

What i love most about FigJam is that the software comes with pre-built templates. The pre-built templates are great for journey Mapping, sprint planning, retrospectives and creating user Interfaces. Furthermore, FigJam allows different users to interact and edit a design in real time enhancing the Collaboration process. Overall, i highly rate it and recommend it to other Designers and website developers.

Cons

FigJam meets all my needs as a design tool and thereby there is nothing that i don't like about the software.

### "First in class"

November 7, 2024

4.0

Despite these minor drawbacks, FigJam has truly transformed the way our design team ideates, sketches, and iterates on designs together. The cross-platform availability and tight integration with the broader design ecosystem have further enhanced our creative workflow, making FigJam a must-have for any team looking to elevate their collaborative design process. If you haven't already, I encourage you to give FigJam a try – it just might change the way you approach design collaboration.

Pros

As a design lead, I've had the pleasure of extensively using FigJam over the past year, and I can confidently say that it has become an indispensable tool in our design arsenal. FigJam's seamless collaboration capabilities are a game-changer, allowing multiple team members to work on the same whiteboard in real-time. The intuitive interface and wide range of tools, from sticky notes and shapes to freehand drawing and text, make it easy for our team to dive in and start leveraging the full potential of the platform. The robust plugin ecosystem has also been a significant advantage, enabling us to integrate a variety of third-party tools that seamlessly extend the capabilities of the platform.

Cons

While FigJam has been an incredibly valuable addition to our design workflow, there are a few areas where I believe the tool could be improved. The lack of advanced version control and history tracking can be a pain point when trying to revert to previous iterations of our designs. Additionally, the inability to directly import assets from other design tools, such as Sketch or Adobe XD, can be a hindrance to our cross-platform design process.

### "Love the real-time collaboration features"

November 23, 2024

4.0

Figma's been a real game-changer for me. It's brilliant for collaborating with clients and colleagues on design projects. I mostly use it for web design, but it's versatile enough for all sorts of graphic design work. Compared to some of the other design software I've used, Figma's a breath of fresh air.

Pros

Love the real-time collaboration features – makes it so much easier to work with others. The prototyping tools are top-notch too, and it's really intuitive to use overall. Plus, being web-based means I can access my projects from anywhere.

Cons

Every now and then it can be a bit glitchy, especially when working with large files. And I reckon the offline functionality could be improved.

The basic toolset for creating website wireframes are enough for design and layout. I can visually map out the UX through the templates provided.

Cons

July 17, 2023

5.0

Pros

Es intuitivo, funcionalidades familiares, conocidas y bien ejecutadas. Se puede trabajar sobre diseños copiados de Figma, tiene muchas opciones para realizar facilitaciones, brainstorming, y reuniones en general.Lo usaba para documentar todos los procesos y etapas de revisión de contenido por producto y/o proyecto. Los artbords tienen colores y está bueno para poder visualmente identificar rápido dentro de la página dónde está lo que buscás.

Cons

No presentaba un problema real porque solo trabajamos sobre diseños en baja y los finales se realizaban en otro software, pero a veces era difícil ser exactos ajustando tamaños de textos y posición dentro de los bocetos.

### "A simple tool for whiteboarding sessions or workshops"

October 21, 2022

4.0

FigJam is very useful and intuitive online collaboration tool. Although it's a very new product as compared to other competitors in market, but it's 'simplicity' makes it stand out from the rest.

Pros

I use FigJam for product ideation or brainstorming sessions with my team. I also use it to build basic workflows or task flows for client reviews. The UI is very clean and simple. I love that multiple stakeholders and team members can work on FigJam board simultaneously without any lag. Whenever I need to discuss any product idea with business stakeholders or clients (who are not tech savvy), this is my go-to tool, as it is very easy for them to understand and use.

Cons

There is no offline version, so if you don't have internet connection, you will not be able to work on any updates. And it doesn't have lot of rich functionalities like Miro.

### "Bringing idea to life with FigJam."

May 16, 2024

5.0

Compared to other whiteboarding software, FigJam's tight incorporation with Figma makes it a unique and powerful solution for design team members like me. The capability to bring in design elements and prototypes directly into the brainstorming space is priceless. I enjoyed this product. I would love to suggest this to everyone.

Pros

FigJam is breaking down silos between our designer and non-designer teams. The intuitive interface and friendly whiteboard make it easy for everyone to give ideas, regardless of their designing experience. It's become our one of the most using platform for cross-functional brainstorming and workshops.

Cons

The cursor chat feature can be a little annoying at times, especially during large discussion sessions. And while the search facility is helpful, it could be enhanced for getting specific elements within a complex FigJam file.
