"Great for basic wireframing"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Balsamiq?

Great for quickly throwing together a design idea in a wireframe to share with teammates and for quick user flow feedback. When using the tool, I often make a mockup and then export as a PDF to print out and test paper prototypes with users for feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Balsamiq?

A tad rigid in some of the functionality which sometimes makes me choose to use another tool that allows me to mainly sketch the idea out. Additional customization would help a lot for improving the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Create beautiful wireframe prototypes in minutes"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Balsamiq?

Balsamiq mockups lets me create beautiful wireframe prototypes in minutes, it supports a wide range of prototypes from web prototyping to mobile UI prototyping and desktop software prototyping. To use Balsamiq mockups one does not need to be a user experience ninja, one can simply know to use a basic word processor and the same skills can be translated into Balsamiq mockups wire framing. Drag and drop mockup creation is the area in which Balsamiq excels the most. I am not a design expert by any means, but Balsamiq lets me create , export and share beautiful interface prototypes before e spend any time in coding these apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Balsamiq?

Balsamiq mockups does not have much flaws, it is robustly built, but the number one complaint for me is the lack of Linux or tablet apps to do these mockups. These days more and more designers are ditching their desktops and laptops for the convenience of their tablets, the developers of Balsamiq mockups need to be mindful of this and release tablet apps that are compatible with the apple pencil and other styluses.

"The fastest way to create paper prototypes"
5/5
What do you like best about Balsamiq?

If you're someone like me that is worse than a kindergartener at drawing, creating UI mock-ups and prototypes can be a huge pain. Even if you're a seasoned pro at sketching UI mockups, it takes time to create and it takes even more time to edit your paper prototype's features. Balsamiq enables users of all skill levels to create a wire frame prototype in seconds. Users can export the prototypes to PNGs or PDF. If users want to do physical prototype testing, the mockups can be printed easily. I like the wide array of native components that are available inside of Balsamiq to create not only web UI prototypes but also Mobile interfaces. Your search for the best wire-framing mockup tool ends with Balsamiq Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Balsamiq?

The ability to export the components to SVG would be a welcome addition to the already phenomenal tool. Apart from this there is not much to complain about Basamiq as it the industry leader when it come to wire-framing tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
