Great UX development tool for the team.
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Freehand from other similar products?
I began utilizing InVision Studio to allow our development team to easily extract code snippets from components without having to export them to Zeplin. I've been working on improving the navigation on my company's website. It's a fantastic tool for introducing myself and the rest of my team to more in-depth UI/UX development. Good sharing possibilities, and you get three projects for free before you have to pay. It's a big improvement than providing the web team flat wireframes/renders. This may save a lot of time if you obtain input from the development team and stakeholders on a regular basis.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It has some extremely amazing transition effects (for example, hover versus click interaction). It is really simple to specify where users can click or scroll to reach additional components of the interaction. Another fantastic feature is the ability to animate everything in one go, without the need for many artboards for animation; instead, you have a timeline, much as you would in Adobe Premiere, which is fantastic. Another significant benefit is that the website contains video courses and a Q&A community, and the managers plainly maintain it.
What do you dislike most about this product?
You must add flat pictures to the site, such as your pages and interactions with them. When working on huge interaction designs, having to update pages outside of InVision, remove old pages before reloading, then re-integrate new ones gets laborious. When compared to Sketch, it's not finalized in certain power extensions, but I've imported it back and forth to find this out for myself.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
A fantastic tool for UI/UX design and complicated transitions. It's also beneficial to solicit input and comments from the whole organization or design team, allowing everyone to participate in the process. It's a fantastic environment for learning and practicing UI/UX development and prototyping. It also has a rather short learning curve.

Tool to design prototypes and collect feedback.
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Freehand from other similar products?
Share prototypes with stakeholders and clients to quickly obtain useful input on new concepts we are developing. We came to understand the need of receiving design feedback swiftly so that we could make modifications and begin development as soon as feasible. Before putting their products on the market, my clients were able to validate their product ideas and enhance their UX thanks to InVision. In essence, it removed the element of risk from product selection.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It was simple to add components to online surveys because to InVision straightforward emulation of actual apps and straightforward linkages to prototypes. The capability of design prototyping appeals to me. At my firm, we frequently use this application to create prototypes, share them with different stakeholders, get their input, and respond to their inquiries in real time on the prototype. Because Invision is so user-friendly, any department can rapidly understand a new design and provide input. I appreciate that the prototypes are clickable, much like a real product would be.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I can't really think of anything I don't like about it, though perhaps if I was more engaged in prototyping I might. However, I just use Invision in my present position to review design prototypes and offer input; for this use case, it works well.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Although InVision is a highly complete prototype tool, you need also take alternative options like Axure into consideration to make sure they match your demands. I advise you to utilize this tool for all design prototypes and to send the prototypes to potential customers and interested parties for feedback.

Excellent way to optimize a demo.
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Freehand from other similar products?
We've fixed the problem of not being able to demo some integrations. We can all use inVision to demonstrate how our system interacts with other systems in a consistent manner. Invision has been a great tool for our company because it has virtues in its programming that help us in a variety of ways, such as being able to create designs that can be clicked on to quickly visualize the user experience, because this software has helped us create beautiful and referential interfaces with a unique elaboration, primarily for our operators who use the company's platform.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I appreciate Invision because it is a design-to-develop platform with a lot of useful tools and capabilities for working in bulk, such as enabling for reasonably smooth communication within a team based on mobile prototype. or online, because it is cutting-edge high-tech software, i.e. very inventive in terms of performance on any platform. We had various goods and integrations that we couldn't test before. We can all present various integrations to our clients using inVision, which helps us all stay aligned by exhibiting the same thing. I also enjoy how current it appears.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The Invision web application is very heavyweight and therefore very slow. This is a problem as work within the platform tends to lag and performance is very poor, similar to mobile applications. A quick and easy experience. Other highlights can emphasize that navigating the various themes can be difficult and confusing.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
This program is ideal if a small design team is obtained; in other aspects, it should be mentioned that it is incredibly beneficial when illustrating the flows and how the user interacts with any of the produced interfaces, as well as the fact that it can be developed rapidly. InVision is an excellent tool for generating a walkthrough demo. There are likely additional applications for the platform, but that is how we utilize it at Bullhorn. I would recommend this application to people who are exhibiting software or a service online but do not have all of the skills to display every aspect.
