Chose DEON
why do I use Deon? Strong data integration static formats like multi-page document scans. It does so much more than just be a digital whiteboard - you can embed websites very quickly and easily with Cloud integration so that changes are always directly synchronized Easy sharing …
Chose DEON
Personally think DEON is easier to use and is a good value for the price. A lot of functionality overlaps between programs, but overall think some of the elements of DEON are superior.

we use different 'similar' applications for different usecases.
Chose InVision
figma is better for creating designs, invision is easier to use and more light weight when it comes to sharing designs
Chose InVision
I have only used InVision as a tool for designing mockups. I wouldn't be able to draw a fair comparison to other tools since I have more experience with InVision.
Chose InVision
FigJam has more shapes, more importable reactions, and for me it's less likely to lag. It's also way easier to connect arrows to sticky notes in FigJam and overall rough designs look cleaner than in InVision.
Chose InVision
[InVision] provides the ability to iterate really quickly, in fact, it is so intuitive that can be applied on live wireframe designing, while the ideas are being scratched and stormed from the team in a single discovery session, as well as allowing and giving access to the …
Chose InVision
We went with InVision because we were already bought into that ecosystem. We have since decided to move to Figma, as we were not receiving the features we needed from InVision and the associated tools (Whimsical, Sketch, Abstract, and Zeplin). The ROI of Figma allows us to free …
Chose InVision
InVision can be a powerful tool when paired with Sketch and other platforms like Freehand. However, Figma is currently the industry leader in terms of functionality and usability for collaborative UI design and prototyping. Invision's sharing and prototyping features are its …
Chose InVision
Main difference is InVision's easy to use prototyping capability. When it is compared to Marvel and Axure RP, while it has less capabilities on tools it is more robust than both. I believe Figma is just a new and upgraded version of InVision where you could do everything online …
Chose InVision
InVision is a bit limited overall compared to other programs like Figma, Photoshop, Illustrator and XD. At the time we selected InVision they were one of the leaders and introduced a lot of new features that were beneficial. However now we've moved back to many of the Adobe …
Chose InVision
I choose InVision over sketch, however figma is leading because of the cloud feature collaboration and open source plugins
Chose InVision
We only tested out using Adobe XD for similar uses and found it to be more challenging to fit within our processes. It didn't have as robust a set of capabilities as InVision and wasn't as easy to use enterprise wide. I recall also having issues with working with Sketch.
Chose InVision
InVision was the best tool for our team. It has the features that best fit our process but is also flexible enough for make it work in various situations where visuals are a core component. We've been using InVision for over 5 years and we're not likely to move to another …
Chose InVision
InVision's design is much more polished and seamless due to its apps on mobile and web. They are very easy to learn and gather feedback compared to Sketch or Principle. Although these features are quickly coming to the other apps, InVision has an upper hand at the moment with …
Chose InVision
Zeplin seems to support everything that InVision does (including Inspect mode) plus reusable styles. That alone significantly speeds up development.
Chose InVision
Zeplin also allows to share design spec and collect feedback, but the ability to have prototype changes the game. Also, other products like Craft plugin is cherry on the cake.
Chose InVision
Compared to other tools, InVision is a very solid tool with a great reputation and prototyping functionalities to back it up. InVision was the first prototyping tool we purchased, and it’s served us really well. However, more and more design tools are now also providing …
Chose InVision
Faster and easy to make sure all the necessary controls are readily available, ability to show a click event.
Chose InVision
Balsamiq is a better tool for interactive prototyping and dynamic transition. InVision is definitely better for handling various designs, separated by projects and shared with different access levels across multiple organizations.
Chose InVision
Other design tools have been creating their own prototyping functionality, which has made InVision less valuable over time. It is much more convenient to use the same tool for both design and prototyping, because it removes the unnecessary steps of exporting, importing, and …
Chose InVision
InVision works seamlessly and easily when sharing and requesting comments from others. Other products I've used like Balsamiq and Dropbox (earlier versions) provided online displays of work, but no easy way to collect feedback or quickly update. InVision provides enterprise …
Chose InVision
InVision is a great tool to use and well worth the price. However, if you're looking for some variety, UXPin and Figma are worth looking into too. While UXPin may be a tad simplistic in the design ability, Figma is a great competitor to InVision. Both tools are worth looking …
Chose InVision
I actually haven't used anything that's similar to InVision, so can't compare. I'm not even sure there is anything out there that can actually compare to InVision. It's an ideal tool for any designer that wants to improve client/team feedback. I highly recommend it and look …
Chose InVision
As the industry leader, XD and Figma have had some catching up to do. I think now InVision will have to innovate to hold these products off. Several are doing what made InVision famous, and in some instances do it even better. There is an insane amount of competition and …
Chose InVision
Truthfully, while we have looked at others, InVision has the name recognition in the web design community and a tight integration with Sketch which is what was important to us. We have not seriously considered others, but may in the future as our needs change. This is our first …

Best Suited Scenario: When you play multiple roles and a certain set of information/ files in one place in an organized fashion. Example 1: You are into sales and need specific documents at during a presentation to your client, this is when DEON comes in handy. You can have all your files arranged in one place. Example 2: You are doing a review where lots of presentations and files are needed to be shown this is where you can use DEON. I don't see any scenario where DEON would not be suitable.

InVision is well suited for design reviews and immersing yourself in the experience of an app-to-be. As a Product Manager, it's difficult to take abstract concepts, user pain points, and business needs, and produce a vision for an app without a visual aid to communicate a vision. InVIsion offers PMs, designers, and developers the opportunity to sketch a vision, communicate about it with inline commenting, and shareable with other stakeholders.

Pros
  • Ability to switch easily between different "rooms" during breakout sessions.
  • Template sharing.
  • Embedded links to ensure most up to date files are being viewed.
Read full review
  • Very easy to export Sketch files (where prototypes are actually created) into Invision and preserve the interactivity.
  • Additional interactivity can be added in InVision. Like scrolling with locked footer.
  • Clients, designer and developers can collaborate - leave notes and respond to notes made by others.

Cons
  • O Usage of a different logic of navigating compared to MS Office products. For me it's possible to switch, but for customers, who are not using DEON so often, it's difficult.
  • Deon don´t support file with Macros
Read full review
  • Designs can be very slow to load on mobile devices, particularly when they include many screens.
  • There isn’t an offline version of the full app, which feels less-than-ideal for many of our teammates who live in areas with more spotty internet.
  • There are limited functionalities to portray animations and transitions. This hasn’t been a huge issue, but it makes the app feel a little out of date, considering the range of such functionalities in other apps.

I didn't need to contact InVision support, as I've never needed it. They have an intuitive UI, and most of the questions are answered in their help portal or in tutorials online. Since many people use it, there a great resources available on for example YouTube. No problems so far with InVision.
