	Adobe XD	Axure RP
Considered Both Products	Adobe Verified User Chose Adobe XD XD can do everything we need and more. It's already part of our Creative Cloud subscription and integrates with our current tools. It was really easy to get to work and establish a workflow for almost all projects where we are designing, prototyping, and iterating. Feedback and … Incentivized Helpful?	Axure Software Solutions Kevin J. Hauger User Experience (UX) Designer in Corporate at Oracle (Design, 10,001+ employees) Chose Axure RP Overall, Axure RP is a reliable prototyping and wireframing tool that has been around for a while. Due to its longevity, it has a large number of features and a large base of help documentation. Contrary, Axure RP does not always feel as thought out as some of its competitors, … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Axure RP Due to the use of variables and possibility of adding complex user flows and related conditions Axure gives a feel of real solution, which may be tested without a particular scenario (freely used by the user, if a feature or app os complete). Other tools are rather UI focused, … Incentivized Helpful? Calvin Pedzai UX Manager in Engineering at Takealot (Consumer Goods, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Axure RP Figma is a well known design tool but is heavily skewed towards creating pixel perfect UI interface designs and hence more suited to UI designers. Sketch and AdobeXd, similar to Figma have always been vector based software design tools which affords a designer more control over … Incentivized Helpful? Dan Clarke Principal User Researcher in Research & Development at Focusrite Group US (Music, 501-1000 employees) Chose Axure RP Axure is my go-to choice because although it is more manual, I have more direct control and can create rich prototypes and interactions that other tools just can't do. With Axure I can mockup physical hardware as well as on-device screens and deep menus. You just can't do that … Incentivized Helpful? Josh Peichoto Digital Strategy Manager in Marketing at Envoy Mortgage (Financial Services, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Axure RP Axure RP has its place among the competitors. Every product has its pros and cons. Axure works well for larger and less visual design projects or deliverables. In some cases we might use Axure along with another tool, such as Sketch or Photoshop, to create different … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Axure RP Sketch and Axure serve different levels of fidelity for our designs. Axure is able to provide rapid, lower-fidelity prototypes that will demonstrate workflows to customers, whereas Sketch is great for higher-fidelity designs that are non-functional, but exact down to the pixel … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Axure RP We initially based our decision on Axure's reputation as the industry standard for prototyping. It is the best as what it does for now, but this is a highly competitive field. There seems to be a new UX/UI tool coming out monthly. I think Axure will continue to be the best for … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Axure RP Since Axure RP is a desktop software that can work without a cloud connection, it is easy to have approved within a highly restricted corporate environment for a low cost with a small team. iRise is a solution that requires greater amounts of management, best service a group of … Incentivized Helpful? Vishakha Chetan UX/UI Associate at N/A (Graphic Design, 1-10 employees) Chose Axure RP Despite the three being less sophisticated than Axure, I lean towards them because they make rapid prototyping genuinely rapid. I haven't had to show a clickable prototype in my absence, so I prefer showing a prototype that's more user flow oriented than "feature" heavy. Incentivized Helpful?
