Chose Zeplin
Zeplin is used for us purely as a handoff tool. It keeps it clean and clear for devs and product managers what is completed. It has some good labels and other organizing features. The different levels of access are also super helpful to give the correct people the view they …
Chose Zeplin
As our project is large and there are many modules and they should be consistent. So, Zeplin's style guide can be shared globally across different projects and we can easily ensure consistency across all modules. Zeplin automatically exports assets in multiple file formats like …
Chose Zeplin
Actually, we didn't select Zeplin. After a long time of internal discussions, the majority of the team decided that we want to move to Figma. We still use Zeplin as a legacy, but we don't use it for new features. In my opinion, it's less flexible than Figma, which allows …
Chose Zeplin
We went without a tool like Zeplin for a long time, but as we grew we needed to get a better handle on the design process and handoff to engineering. We went straight to Zeplin off of numerous recommendations and didn't look back. We have had a great experience with Zeplin.
Chose Zeplin
Zeplin is more focused on the handoff than in the creation itself. The other alternatives can do both, but Zeplin is an awesome tool for the handoff part. It depends in how big is your team and how the workflow is organized to understand whats the best tool for your team.
Chose Zeplin
It was a business need from different departments. From an IT point of view, we have been a part of purchasing and setting up. However, the decision to go with Zeplin was not ours.
Chose Zeplin
I believe Invision is the only one that is supporting such inspection tools at this moment.
Chose Zeplin
Zeplin has and easier on the eyes UI, not a cumbersome constructors of projects and easier collaboration.
Chose Zeplin
Out of all of the products that I have used to support design-to-development handoffs, Zeplin is my favorite. It’s pretty lightweight and easy to use (once you get the hang of it). Zeplin also has a smooth interface and is, generally, clearer to use than other tools, such as …
Chose Zeplin
These other tools are really helpful products for creating and sharing wireframes / prototypes. However, Zeplin is the best tool for the actual hand off between the design and development teams once the design is actually ready to share. Zeplin fills this gap and improves the …
Chose Zeplin
Zeplin is simpler. Zeplin lacks prototyping on par with Invision. Zeplin doesn't give a direct code for Android and iOS like Figma does. Zeplin doesn't have a lot of advanced features like Invision, for example, whiteboard. But Zeplin is good for at its job which is to share …
Chose Zeplin
Zeplin is a really nice lightweight app, that is easier to use than Invision for sharing purposes. Invision does primarily handle prototyping, which Zeplin does not do. Abstract is my product of choice but is also a slightly different tool — almost a Github for design. It …
Chose Zeplin
We chose Zeplin because it allowed our product and design teams to collaborate more effectively, while providing the rest of the organization an easily accessible location to access up-to-date assets. While InVision's interface can be more intuitive, we prefer Zeplin because it …
Chose Zeplin
Marvel is a pretty expensive application for what it gives you, it is a pretty good tool but I think the handoff is not as good as Zeplin's. I think the style of Zeplin is more oriented to developers and Marvel is more oriented to the designers. I like the way Zeplin is …
Chose Zeplin
Zeplin is great to inspect and share user interfaces, specifications and assets, perfect for developers. Tools like Invision and Marvel are much better to create prototypes for both developers, coworkers and even stakeholders, but they don't have this kind of feature …
Chose Zeplin
For my company needs, Zeplin comes as the best tool in its category. Zeplin's competitors are great tools but they either offer way too many features or are priced above Zeplin with the same features.

Zeplin is in the right spot for both pricing and features.
Chose Zeplin
Zeplin is a better tool for collaboration and has a deeper feature set that helps communicate the information developers need to build products.
Chose Zeplin
I know there are other products out there but Zeplin has been so effective that I haven't even bothered to look elsewhere. The whole experience of Zeplin has been excellent. However, once Adobe XD is more built out Zeplin will finally have a formidable competitor as it will be …
Chose Zeplin
Zeplin is much better when it comes to seeing the properties and CSS code of the design elements. Our developers love it when they get all that info from the Zeplin file.
Chose Zeplin
Zeplin is the only solution tailored for this common use case. Previously we just shared files in dropbox but that was messy and didn't allow for specific comments, etc.

Likelihood to Recommend
One of best business intelligence enterprise reporting tools, it has loads of rich features available to the business user with ease of use and advanced analysis in a single end-to-end solution. I like MicroStrategy's simplicity in creating complex multi-pass SQL reports, visualizations over varied data sets, and the breath of areas in which the product can be used. I like mostly everything. I think there are some remaining improvements that could be done in the area of data visualization.

I still have some issues, especially with color integration between the style guide and also project. When we update the colors, it's not automatically sync to every project. Aside from that, zeplin solves my problem for hand-off design from design to developer. I set zeplin is source of truth design file

Cons
  • More documentation of communication between the layers of the infrastructure so security discussions can better be facilitated.
  • Reloading the data when you reboot the server takes time depending on the infrastructure.
  • It can also be a bit slow due to the amount of data we have, but that's more of a data problem.
  • I have not been able to figure out how I can control table joins within reports, so I have to create free form SQL reports, which is messy to upkeep.

  • It would be better if it has a dedicated web application
  • It's not the easiest tool to learn and start working with
  • It would be awesome if it had more features turning it into an all-around tool for mockups and prototypes

Zeplin's component management and style guide help us to be consistent across whole product and it so easy to use for non-technical person. It is now easy to collaboration for designes between different teams like stackholders, product owner, UI/UX, developers and testers. Now there is only one point of reference is Zeplin so it is so easy to get details without asking designer or developer again and again.

Zeplin has classic support with a chat from the website. It's working fine, and we're also getting the support needed when needed. However, Zeplin is very good at closing the incidents and moving on. It was a while ago we had a case with their support so that it might have improved since then.

Out of all of the products that I have used to support design-to-development handoffs, Zeplin is my favorite. It’s pretty lightweight and easy to use (once you get the hang of it). Zeplin also has a smooth interface and is, generally, clearer to use than other tools, such as InVision. Plus, all of the plug-ins that you can use with Zeplin have supported the design-development relationship and workflows in which I’ve been involved in more efficient, clear, and effective ways than I’ve seen with any other product.

  • We're using the free plan, so it fits in our needs, although we're limited to create only one project at a time
  • Sketch has some plugins that offers exactly what Zeplin does, for free
  • The integration with design apps (Sketch, Photoshop, XD) and collaboration (Slack and Trello) helps our team to better communicate and be notified on every update
