    Cost effectiveness and while Miro is good for collaboration and sprint and PI planning, I think its too open-ended. Easy to get lost in a board. Snagit is my go-to tool but it is not a collaborative tool. If I could combine Snagits tools with Invisions look/feel...that would be …

    I like that I could add boards and documents too here, which as far as I know other products don't have so it was easier to choose this.

    I actually have access to all three. And I use all three for different things, though truthfully, I could probably get away with just using Figma. I'm not sure how InVision Freehand is better than Miro or Figma. But we already own it, so it has made sense for me to use it in …

    InVision Freehand is closing the gap and adding all the functionalities that some of these tools provide separately. In the race towards a one-stop digital design ecosystem, InVision Freehand is well poised to deliver and connect where others can't. I hope that with the news of …

    Because I feel it is more accessible and much simpler to use, the interface is very intuitive and this helps you to use it without experience

    The sharing/accessibility of the mocks. It’s hard for someone not on the design team to see their mocks unless the links were shared but this might be by design or license based.

    Miro (formerly Realtime Board) is the original product concept for this tool and I used it for 3-4 years for product development. Invision is aesthetically a carbon copy of the tool but lacks in fine usability controls. We actually didn't choose Freehand, it just came as an …

    Freehand is the least polished of the bunch. It doesn't instantly make your thoughts and design look sexy. It doesn't open up your designs to be edited live, inspected, and sliced up for export. It doesn't let you interact with flow charts, like showing or hiding long pieces of …

    Freehand is one of my preferred tools to use in the early stages of design.

    All other programs I've used that claim to be similar use a grid function or "sticky" note system that is really limiting in how information can be laid out and presented.

    One of the key differentiators between Miro and Freehand is that after a certain number of users Miro is a paid subscription plan, which can be unattractive. Freehand has many of the same features, and in my opinion, features a better UI for easy maneuvering. However, Miro does …

    Miro is the main competitor I have used. It is extremely similar to Freehand but I like Freehand more because we do a lot of our prototyping and design in InVision so it is more of a one-stop shop for me. I also enjoy the different types of templates in Freehand, a few of them …

    MURAL is very similar in the type of approach we could use to walk through certain items but it lacks many features that we rely on in InVision, so we typically stay away from MURAL.

    In my opinion, InVision Freehand is worse than every other option I've tried. I would not have selected InVision Freehand if given the choice, but it wasn't my decision at our company.

    We were using inVision Freehand at the time based on a team member's suggestion. They were familiar with it, having used it at their prior organization, so we naturally adopted it after they introduced it to the organization. However, the team quickly moved on to other …

    InVision Freehand is lacking in features compared to competitors like MURAL and Miro, but its streamlined, easy-to-use interface makes it easy to pick up and throw something together in an instant. It does not do large complex work as well as its competitors, but InVision …

    I didn't make the decision to purchase InVision Freehand vs Miro. If given the choice I would have chosen Miro. Miro has features that are more intuitive and automated. The product is just easier to use. InVision Freehand gets the job done and what makes it stand apart is its …

    From personal experience, I think Miro and MURAL focus more on collaboration. InVision Freehand is more about design, more like a subsection in InVision. The other tools are more about the concept of boards. InVision Freehand is more like a tool. I use InVision Freehand because …
