"Balsamiq is a useful tool to layout the structure of our website"
5/5
What do you like best about Balsamiq?

I like this tool because it is very easy to use and it has also allowed us to design our model of structure is Balsamiq. Thanks to the same we can establish what will be the configuration of our website, even has a free version of Try web demo and one of payment, very useful and that can save us a lot of time and efforts. Balsamiq has no comparison because in my company we have tested other products and can get complicated quickly, while this tool keeps everything simple and powerful when using it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Balsamiq?

What I may come to dislike of this great tool is that it has spreadsheets can be a little slow, but so with this advantage there is nothing more that I do not like about Balsamiq. It's also fast, cheap, and almost anyone can use this with minimal software education. My team must be agile and iterate over ideas, prototypes and design flows quickly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Pretty great for low fidelity mockup"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Balsamiq?

Learning curve = 5 min

Really that simple. But that means not too much features, but in this case, it's a good thing.

Option for online version or desktop version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Balsamiq?

Software is based on Adobe air, so doesn't feel 100% made for Windows/mac, but it's still pretty much ok. Online version is pretty great but you pay on a monthly basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nice Entry MockUp Software"
4/5
What do you like best about Balsamiq?

I like the easiness and quickness creating a new mockup at work. Before I got Balsamiq I spent days creating the static mockups due to the lack of UI/UX that free software has. Also, I like how you can link mockups like if you were in a real webpage, it gives you a broader idea on how your end product could look and also, to fix things before making it, which reduces our development time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Balsamiq?

I would really, really like more options, more icons, templates for mobiles and web pages, for example, it would be nice that it was already a template for login, another for standard maintenance and so on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I really like about Balsamic is that I can easy create prototypes of my application and also build proposal for my client before going to the design phase. It is very useful for me having a detail user experience and flow before going to working in the designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Balsamiq?

I would like to have more elements with a more modern interface or experience, also I would like to have a free lite version of the application with pay features that a can add and pay as I go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A simple app to make low fidelity mockups quickly"
4/5
What do you like best about Balsamiq?

Sometimes you want to create mockups which are at a fidelity between hand sketching app screens and creating them in Sketch/Figma/XD/etc. Balsamiq has a great suite of icons and shapes built in and make creating low fidelity screens quickly very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Balsamiq?

The app does not support pinch to zoom on Mac. This can make it jarring when you try to zoom in to see finer details more clearly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good for wireframing"
3/5
What do you like best about Balsamiq?

It is a decent software to use for mockups without spending too much time actually developing the prototype. It can used to demo to end users for feedback and user acceptance testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Balsamiq?

They ran on a license basis, not their fault but in the organization that i had it, we didn't have enough licenses and it wasn't justifyable having more so we had to rotate computers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My go to wireframe tool for 1st iteration"
5/5
What do you like best about Balsamiq?

In the old days we used fat marker pens. Now we use Balsamiq. Balsamiq isnt about the final desgn - (leave that to PShop) but the very early stage of the design process when communicating and gaining consensus is critical. Its super rapid in this regard for layout and primary elements. I've been in meetings and used it "live" with great results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Balsamiq?

File management and project organisation could be better. Its quite easy to generate concepts but they seem to get a bit lost in file managment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
