Great tool for collaboration that everyone – designers, product, engineering, and more – can use! **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sarah Z. | Product Designer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 24, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** I love that it updates in real time, that I can use it on my iPad and desktop, and the flexibility it provides my team. I am able to share this with anyone at my company through an open session and it's been so great for collaboration on work, and even fun activities like bonding, icebreakers, etc. It also has a lot of great crossover functionality from Figma. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** I dislike how the iPad app has a size restriction – it stops me from being able to work on the go or sketch directly in a file using my iPad. I also dislike how components work in FigJam, it's not as intuitive and you can't really bring many things to Figjam in a way that works as you expect a component to. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** Collaboration primarily – this is great to visually collaborate with team members where a document doesn't quite cut it. It's super easy to work through problems and explore, and makes work go much more smoothly. ### 2. FigJam - A Game-Changing Tool for Collaborative Diagramming and Brainstorming **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jona B. | Higher Education, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 09, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** What I like best about FigJam is its ease of use and collaboration features. The interface is intuitive, and the templates and shapes available make it easy to create any diagram or flowchart you need. I also love the ability to collaborate in real-time with others and add comments, making the process of creating diagrams and brainstorming ideas more efficient. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** One of the things I dislike about FigJam is the limited customization options for shapes and text. While there are many pre-made shapes and icons available, I would like more flexibility to customize them to suit my needs. Additionally, it would be helpful to have more advanced features like the ability to add hyperlinks to shapes. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** When it comes to diagramming and brainstorming, FigJam solves the problem of inefficient and scattered communication. Team members can quickly communicate in real-time and contribute comments using FigJam, expediting the process and ensuring that everyone is on the same page. This has saved me time and enabled me to develop more effective diagrams and brainstorming sessions. ### 3. Great for collaboration while remote! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Patrick M. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 09, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** Being able to join with several colleagues, throw together a quick brainstorm and work quickly has been great! I have used FigJam professionally to lay out calendar schedules, run retros, and run client workshops. It is even valuable to go back to your data and organize everything into a visually consumable map. This is a personal note, but I even used FigJam with my wife (who at the time was on a job away from our home) to lay out our entire wedding floor plan and seating chart! **What do you dislike about FigJam?** The templates can feel a little daunting, I often can't find *exactly* what I wanted or was looking for, but usually a quick search online or asking colleagues leads me to finding a better template. That, or I just go through and make my own layout because it's just that easy! **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** When working remote as a product manager, it can be tricky to get everyone on the same page. FigJam allows everyone to share a single space, and it truly feels like you're in the room together. I have used it in situations as the sole driver while sharing my screen with the team to get a quick diagram or mind map put together, and I have also used it collaboratively with my team as a digital whiteboard. You can bring people into FigJam and have them collaborating within minutes whether they are familiar with the tech or not. ### 4. If you own a licence for Figma Figjam does the job **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Allan K. | User Experience Designer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 09, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** Figjam is a great tool that fulfills a lot of the functionality you get in more advanced whiteboard apps and does more or less a good job of it. The ability to deep-link to elements in a board, and make sections and post-its, is fine and works pretty well. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** There could be more functionality to format and resize post-its. It'd also be really helpful, for the facilitation of workshop activities, to be able to show and hide sections. this would ideally be on a user or for users or user groups. More mechanics like this, which allows groups of participants and facilitators to work together, would have a positive impact on running workshop activity withing the Figma platform and in FigJam. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** It solves the same problem as other whiteboard app does. The fact it comes as part of Figma is a huge plus. I might consider using something else if it was a big add-on or wasn't part of the main platform. There are better apps, but the fact that this baked ina s part of Figma is the biggest reason I use it. It's great that it allows me to quickly spin up a board and hammer out visual concepts quickly and I'd happily use this to create UR artifacts, but it has some drawbacks and I wouldn't be able to facilitate some activities. **Official Response from Hassam Farooq:** > Hi Allan, thanks for the feedback and your review! We're always trying to find ways to make FigJam more customizable to our user's needs. In case you missed it, you can hide sections using the 'eye' icon when clicking on an individual section.

Component use in FigJam needs some love **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Derek O. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 08, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** I like the speed at which I can collaborate with my teammates for a variety of topics. I spend most of my time using the timer for timebox ceratin conversations around audit and design decisions which we use FigJam for. Additionally, creating user flows within FigJam has been tremendously helpful. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** Currently, while components are available within FigJam, there isn't an easy way to visibly pull in the components without copying them over from a design file. Additionally, if I want to scale components I've copied into a FigJam, they can not be manipulated, and thus I spend more time jumping back and forth through files rather than having a focused conversation around review/feedback within FigJam. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** The ability to quickly collaborate on user flows and audit our product with non-designers has been made super quick with the use of FigJam. We are also utilizing FigJam for sprint retros, which allows other roles to become power users of FigJam, benefitting our team using the tool for different purposes and not having another learning curve. ### 6. beginning user but sure to keep using this **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Hendel S. | Creative Copywriter, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 04, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** love the easy collaboration and full bodied features, especially the way we can get teams together to work on ideas and prototypes **What do you dislike about FigJam?** nothing I can think of now, maybe as I get to use it more **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** mostly collaborating on UX projects, working out user journeys together ### 7. Fast, Fun, and Multi-functional **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Yassee M. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 05, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** FigJam makes it easy for me to sketch ideas, map information in diagrams, and collaborate with others. There's just enough design functionality to bring concepts to life without getting lost in the details. Additional tools make workshops or brainstorming sessions fun and easy for my non-designer colleagues to pick up. I love having access to community-made templates and graphics for inspiration. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** I wish participants could be invited to edit files without having a licensed seat. I have run interactive workshops with participants who do not regularly use the tool, and getting folks proper access in these cases is a bit tricky. In cases where I have colleagues who need temporary access to files, I use open sessions, but need to reopen them each time the colleague requires edit access. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** Documenting information in diagrams/maps helps the team visualize complex information architecture and align on foundations. Sketching ideas in low fidelity increases our time to value at early design stages by allowing us to validate concepts before investing in high-fidelity visualizations. Having a space to collaborate on these low-fidelity designs makes the validation process more efficient and consolidates the thinking. Using FigJam to share information with less design-savvy coworkers offers a friendly way to collect and organize inspiration or audits. ### 8. Play in Figjam, Refine in Figma **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Amanda V. | UX Architect, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 02, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** I love the ability to ideate and diagram in FigJam and then copy it to Figma to use as a reference and modify as necessary. It's really great to use them in tandem. I also find the shapes and arrows easy to use and connect. The stickers are a fun feature as well. The audio chat in Figjam and Figma is clutch. My team will typically meet in there instead of scheduling a Teams meeting. It's a great way to hop on review a design or ask questions about a specific thing. I also really like the option to give anyone access for 24 hours. This is great for collaborating with people that are not within the company. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** There's nothing I don't like about FigJam. I don't feel like there is anything missing from the application. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam allows me and my team to quickly and easily make low-fidelity wireframes and conceptual designs as well as collect our findings from our user interviews and other Discovery activities. ### 9. An easy to use tool that is used by everyone in R&D **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Stephanie M. | Engineering Manager, Computer Software, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 03, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** An easy-to-use tool that allows Design to easily design needed user journeys and feature mocks. They can then easily share with their team(s) and make changes on the fly when needed. The UI is fairly intuitive as well. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** Maybe it's just me but I found it a bit hard to learn the controls to navigate the tool as someone new to it. Took me longer than I like to admit to know how to zoom in and move around properly. This is likely a me issue more than a UI issue but I wanted to mention it. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our Design team needed a tool that is easy to use and with good documentation and training available. This tool also needed to be able to share with anyone in the company. By having organization in the tool (teams, pages, etc.) , it also makes it easy to find what is needed. ### 10. Trendy FigJamer **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gouni A. | ui/ux designer, Design, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 29, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** I mostly connected to this figjam because it is very easy to use and user-friendly too ui never seen this feature in any other tools, I just loved to be a user of Figjam **What do you dislike about FigJam?** I just want to know about more interesting features that need to be involved in figjam to be noted for feature users es i hope Figjam will be comes with unique and most likely feature soon **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** while exporting I noticed an error and low quality of the file, little disappointed but needs to be improved and solved by Figjam, and finally comes to the screen need to be more flexible to users ### 11. FigJam: The Best in the Industry **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Charanpreet S. | Web Developer, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** The best thing about FigJam is that it is a super helpful tool to involve the entire team in collaboration on a project. It helps a team or a group to be organised, creative and move on with the focus. FigJam also offers free templates to new users as well. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** The disliking thing about FigJam is the lack of more advanced vector drawing tools. Also, there is no offline version which means a user can't work on any updates in the absence of an internet connection. Thirdly, FigJam could allow users to change the theme, background texture and styles of icons. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam is helping in finding the right platform where different people can collaborate together for a project, sharing ideas which everyone can see and add their own suggestions as well. It saves time and resources and helps in being more creative and focused on a project. Also, it is a very user-friendly tool so people can easily adapt. ### 12. Since I jumped in and started to use it on my own, I haven't looked back. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Johan N. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 17, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** The scrolling and zooming mechanisms are incredibly well rounded off. I also love the pen/highlighter tools, I can easily write words, draw arrows etc. with just the mouse as input. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** Sharing is a bit confusing to me, especially because Figma and FigJam work together. It would be nice to have these seperated in a way. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** I can better express myself in meetings using this tool. ### 13. Good for every type of collaboration **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Harsh wardhan R. | Front-end developer , Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** FigJam provides a range of pre-built shapes, icons, and sticky notes that enable users to visually express their ideas. This makes it easy to create diagrams, flowcharts, wireframes, or mind maps. The flexibility of FigJam allows for creative expression and problem-solving. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** As a web-based tool, FigJam requires an internet connection to work. This means that users may face limitations or difficulties accessing their whiteboards without an internet connection. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** Visual Expression and Clarity: FigJam offers a range of visual tools, icons, and shapes that allow users to express ideas and concepts visually. It helps in conveying complex information, creating diagrams, wireframes, or mind maps, and maintaining visual clarity. Benefit: Users can enhance communication and understanding by presenting information visually, making it easier for team members to grasp and engage with ideas, leading to more effective collaboration and decision-making. ### 14. incredible online whiteboard for group work **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Farah B. | Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 26, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** FigJam is an online whiteboard that facilitates simultaneous team collaboration for ideation, planning, and design. I havetried FigJam, and based on my experience the software's, it is a well-designed tool with many helpful features. Users may make their own boards, anyway they like (with sticky notes, photos, and more), and then work on them in real time with colleagues. The capacity to make and distribute interactive prototypes is a particularly useful one, as it can facilitate rapid iteration and refinement of designs by teams.To me, FigJam appears is an effective and practical tool for teamwork and project administration. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** The app is sometimes incompatible with other apps and platforms. It can be difficult to use certain capabilities, such as resizing objects, and there aren't enough ways to customize the user interface. There have also been some technological issues, such as lag while working on large boards or projects with numerous elements. The pricing of FigJam are not as low as those of other tools for collaborative design and brainstorming. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam, as a collaborative whiteboarding application, makes it easier for marketing teams to collaborate during design and ideation. It helps me and my remote teammates collaborate in real time. The changeable templates, drag-and-drop, and board comments and notes make planning easier. FigJam lets my teams create project-specific boards to stay organized. ### 15. Figjam is great for design and templates **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nivedha V. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 26, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** Visual brainstorming and ideation: The platform provides a flexible and intuitive interface that supports visual brainstorming and ideation. Users can quickly sketch ideas, create flowcharts, wireframes, diagrams, and mind maps using various visual elements like sticky notes, shapes, connectors, and text boxes. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** Limited functionality compared to specialized tools: FigJam is primarily a collaborative whiteboard tool, and while it offers a range of features for visual brainstorming and ideation, it may lack the advanced functionality and specialized tools found in dedicated diagramming or design software. Users with specific needs or complex requirements may find FigJam's capabilities limiting. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam allows multiple team members to work together simultaneously on a shared canvas. This real-time collaboration enhances productivity and efficiency by eliminating the need for back-and-forth communication and enabling immediate feedback and contributions Also for intensive designing as well ### 16. Great tool for collaborative whiteboarding! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Mitchell M. | UX Designer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** It's an incredibly solid tool for whiteboarding that compares favorably to all other whiteboarding tools I've used. Figjam's fantastic multi-user collaboration functionality really makes it the "google docs" of this sort of software. With its seamless compatibility with Figma itself, I wouldn't choose any other tool for the job! **What do you dislike about FigJam?** Occasionally, I get the feeling like Figjam isn't quite as robust as other whiteboarding products. However, it's still incredibly powerful, and the fact that it pairs so well with Figma really makes it unbeatable. It would be even better if Figma itself could handle the "flow" aspects from copied Figjam files better, as I sometimes have to 'brute-force' parts of workflow design. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** One of the highlights of Figjam lies within its seamless pairing with Figma itself. The ability to bounce back-and-forth between the programs and copy+paste elements is just really fantastic. ### 17. All encompassing solution **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tiffany Z. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 16, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** It's great that it fits into my workflow with regular Figma very well. I like that all the files can exist in one place. The tool is wonderful for brainstorming. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** I have a couple specific gripes with Figjam: 1. I wish I could use it for wireframes. It lends itself great to that functionality, but doesn't offer a quick design system for it 2. It's not very non-technical user friendly. I'd like to use it more for brainstorming with stakeholders (non-tech people) but it's a very intimidating interface 3. I wish i could easily copy things from figjam to figma. E.g. copying over a flow chart into figma so I could attach screens to it would be cool **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** Figjam is great for collaborating with other designers or tech people and having all my designs and brainstorms in one place ### 18. Easy simultaneous and async collaboration **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Laura L. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 11, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** It's been conducive to facilitating collaboration on designs, whiteboarding, brainstorming, process reviews, and strategy sessions. Figjam's design makes it easy to use for a wide variety of scenarios. We've used it asynchronously to prep for a discussion as well as simultaneously in-meeting as a way to accomplish in-person whiteboarding-type conversations, especially when some participants are remote. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** The UI took a little getting used to, and there was a short learning curve to figure out how to access different elements and add them to the page. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** We're a hybrid company and working in Product, we often need to have collaborative sessions across teams where some members are remote and some are in person. This is by far the best replacement for old-fashioned in-person whiteboarding with sticky notes, and it's even better because you can save it and easily access it later. ### 19. A great tool convert your imagination into reality **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Shailu J. | Senior Software Developer Team Lead, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 30, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** Being a developer, I used to rely heavily on designer for several aspects however figjam reduced this dependency as it is very easy to operate and even a non tech person can use it easily. It even helped me in giving real time update to our clients and led to great products. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** There is no such aspect of Figjam which is least helpful as all the functionalities are very well desgined. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** dependencies on the desginers was one of the problems resolved by the Figjam and apart from that it provided great platform to discuss the ideas which helped us to inrease client intraction and engagemeent. ### 20. Easy to use and collaborate! **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Alan S. | Product Marketing and Head of Support, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 10, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** Being able to collaborate with both internal and external stakeholders is very easy. The UI makes it easy to create and ideate our processes and sharing the FigJam with others is seamless. They don't need to download anything to hop in and start editing. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** There isn't much I would say I dislike about FigJam. There are some limitations in choices when building out flows, such as shapes or colors, but it hasn't effected me from being able to create what I need. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have used other platforms in the past with similar capabilities, but FigJam is very easy to use. It helps us diagram out our workflows and processes, but internally and externally for clients. The important thing is that someone outside of our organization (that doesn't use FigJam every day) can easily use it and collaborate. ### 21. A Powerful Collaboration Tool **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Maya N. | Faculty | Computer Graphic Technology - User Experience, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 20, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** it's an exceptional collaboration tool. FigJam provides a seamless and intuitive platform that greatly enhances teamwork and idea sharing. It offers a clean and straightforward interface, making it easy for both beginners and experienced users to navigate. It is easy to copy from Figma to figjam **What do you dislike about FigJam?** FigJam may feel somewhat limited in terms of advanced features. While it provides the basics for visualizing ideas and collaborating, it may not offer the same depth of functionality as specialized tools in those areas. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam facilitates remote collaboration by enabling real-time editing and visual communication. It bridges the gap between team members who may be geographically dispersed, allowing them to work together seamlessly and contribute to projects from anywhere. This is particularly beneficial for remote teams, freelancers, or organizations with distributed workforces. ### 22. Love using Figjam for brainstorming! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Danah R. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** I love how easy it is to use, know matter what skill level you (or the person you're collaborating with)are in Figjam it's very intuituve. It's very useful to have plenty of design thinking/brainstorming templates so I dont have to think about how I want to visualize it. From simple to complex flows, mapping priorities or user feedback. I also like that its very easy to copy content over in figma when needed. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** I can't think of anything right now. So far it's been useful on the way I need to used it. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** Mind Mapping , Mapping user feedback into topics, Brain storming for potential user or task flows, Organizing project priorities and collaboration when brainstorming ideas and prioritization of roadmap. The sticky notes are my favorite tool! ### 23.

My entire design and marketing uses it; they introduced it to me I can easily share the link with the approver to figma my work and leave comments I am still new to it, learning and exploring ### 24. Interesting collaborative tool **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jimena R. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 17, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** Collaboration - many people can join the same board and edit although they don't have a Figma user Nice templates to use - and a lot of templates from the community Ability to vote **What do you dislike about FigJam?** I would like the ability to hide sections so I can enable when we work on that section, so that I can share the link with an audience, but without having all the content visible It gets really slow when you have more than 20 people on the board I would like to organize the canva by sections, so I can add an order to navigate it I would like to hide the toolbox at the bottom sometimes **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** The main one> Collaboration and diagramming, is so much easier than with power point ### 25.

The ability to share boards via a simple link makes figJam convenient for me to distribute and collect input from relevant team members and clients. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** It has limited functionality as compared to other whiteboard tools available in the market. It should develop its drawing tools and also integration with other software in a more advanced way. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** The problems FigJam is solving are Remote collaboration and visual representation of ideas. It's benefiting me in integrating with Figma design files seamlessly. And it also bridges the gap between ideation and design. ### 26. A great tool making another tool amazing **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Anuj V. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 04, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** We already love Figma and you might not believe but even our logo was designed on Figma. Now, with FigJam, it makes it easy for us to collaborate in real-time with team members on a customizable whiteboard that too with a number of features like the option to create and share interactive prototypes, and the flexibility to use various media such as sticky notes, photos, and drawings. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** There are a few things like Figjam has a limited number of integrations available and also the mobile app has got a fewer functionality when compared to the desktop version. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** It helps a lot while working on client projects as all the meetings and ideation process can be skipped by having the team collaborate live on the whiteboard and plan for the creatives. ### 27. A Creative Collaboration Powerhouse **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Pawan J. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** FigJam is a game-changing collaboration tool that has completely transformed the way my team and I work together. As a designer, I'm constantly seeking efficient ways to brainstorm, ideate, and collaborate on projects, and FigJam has quickly become an indispensable asset in our creative process. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** Despite its simplicity promise, I struggled to navigate through the various features and tools. While visually appealing, the interface lacked the intuitive design I had hoped for. Basic actions such as resizing objects or aligning elements felt cumbersome and often required multiple attempts to achieve the desired outcome. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** As a designer, I'm constantly seeking efficient ways to brainstorm, ideate, and collaborate on projects, and FigJam has quickly become an indispensable asset in our creative process. ### 28. The best mindmap and thought visualization solution we have fond to date **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ryan S. | S, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 26, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** FigJam is easy to use and very stable, we have never lost progress or seen any hiccups while using this platform. We have all the tools and features we could ever need for collaborating together! Also, the cost is extremely reasonable! **What do you dislike about FigJam?** They could improve the sharing process. right now anyone on a team account can add editors and charge the licenses to the organization. there is a way to restrict users from being able to just add anyone to a design, but it requires an account upgrade to the enterprise plan resulting in an increase in cost. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** We needed a one-stop shop to handle all our design and mind mapping and due to the fact that the company that makes this is Figma we have Figma and FigJam both under one connected roof. ### 29. Easy and fun to use collaborative boards **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Paula P. | Academic Mentorship for Capstone Projects in the Bachelor's Degree in Design, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 25, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** It's an easy-to-use tool and has a lot of templates available. It's intuitive and has features to work collaboratively such as voting, reactions with funny interaction effects, a timer (with music now), widgets, editing tools, etc. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** Sharing boards or files it's a bit billing-tricky. You may be charged extra seats if you don't pay attention and share links directly. The selection between reactions and vote tools is not enough clear as they share the same wheel **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** We use it to run workshops and it has been of great aid as clients adopt it easily after a 10-minute onboarding. Also, it has helped us to organize visually a lot of information, for example, inputs from branding or users Research. We have simulated some apps to test how will them help us before purchasing them ### 30.

Rather than using a whiteboard or posty notes, you can easily add all this digitally where the project would be spending its time anyway **What do you dislike about FigJam?** Can't really find a downside, only thing I would say is you would need an extra monitor if you want the information permanently in front of you. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** Ease of getting ideas down ### 31.

It's a very visual way to document and brainstorm ideas. Very easy to implement even with no previous experience. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** The only thing I didn't like were the amount of options available. There were a few different ways to navigate the screen to see all options, stickers and other things that are great but something to get used. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** It's solving the problem of being able to visualize thoughts & collaborative brainstorming. Using this tool allows sessions to be more interactive and productive during and after. ### 32.

With a wide range of colors, shapes, and stickers, you can spice up your visuals and make them pop. It's like art class meets brainstorming session. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** FigJam lacks some advanced features that other similar tools offer. It could benefit from additional functionalities like more advanced diagramming options or integration with a wider range of third-party tools. It's not a deal-breaker, but it would definitely enhance the overall experience. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam is a lifesaver when it comes to team collaboration and unleashing creativity.

With FigJam, communication flows smoothly, and our projects become more organized. It's such a game-changer for boosting productivity and sparking innovation within our company.

We use Figjam all the time, very easy to use even for me who doesn't know much about design **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Joep L. | CEO, Sports, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 20, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** The easy part is for me to edit everything someone already created. I can easy adjust small information in a image we've created. this is really helpfull for our product **What do you dislike about FigJam?** In the begin it was not clear for me how to undo stuff i've created. There could be an easier option to adjust this.

We can create easy what we have in our heads. This tool is very usefull for everyone who would like to make easy designs ### 37. My experience with Figjam **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ishan M. | Intern, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 18, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** The first time i used Figjam, or figma in general was when i was doing a fellowship for a startup company, the best thing about it was that it was so simple to get in to. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** FigJam while an awesome tool in general, can also appear somewhat intimidating to use, because of the variety of options it provides which can scare away a new user with no background related to it. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** Figjam solves the problem of collaboration in the digital space. It can be exhausting to have to prepare presentations on computers to have to explain a new feature or an idea to your peers, which when explained through a whiteboard , would be much simple. ### 38. Figjam is a great way to collaborate with others when generating ideas **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Melissa O. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** How playful and approachable it is when getting teammates' creativity flowing. It's nice not to feel like you must create something polished or organized, which leaves room for play and creative new ideas. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** How separate it feels from regular Figma files. When I'm working on a project, I almost want to combine my Figma (polished design) and Figjam (user flows, brainstorm, notes, etc) into one place so I don't have to search for or reference both files **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** It solves the problem of "How can cross functional partners collaborate and share ideas in one space" and it helps us get ideas from everyone, not the most outspoken person. I also use it to quickly organize thoughts on hierarchy. ### 39. The collaboration tool I've used for remote work. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kelly C. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** This type of experience is surprisingly tricky to get "right." The objects in the interface respond and move across the screen naturally. For people who aren't designers or haven't used Figma before, there is a low barrier of entry. The necessary tools are in one spot, ready to use. For those who want to get a little deeper into the app, there are surprises and elements of delight waiting to be discovered. It is an enjoyable way to brainstorm together. And most importantly, FigJam never glitches on me. I have never lost my work or struggled to find it again. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** It would be nice if FigJam were a bit more separate from Figma designs. Sometimes it isn't helpful for people to naturally go from FigJam to wandering around design files. Not a big deal at all, though. I can always organize FigJam files separately from Figma design files. I understand enabling that flexibility. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam enables me to consolidate research in one space and make it interactive for ideation and discovery with other teams. Particularly useful for working with teams outside of design. ### 40. An excellent tool for diagramming and collaboration **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gabriel Y. | Platform Support Specialist, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 25, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** FigJam makes creating diagrams and flowcharts very easy! In my job, I often need visual aids to explain technical systems, and I need to create those aids more or less on the fly. FigJam has been a lifesaver in that regard. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** My only complaints about FigJam are very small, the biggest of which is that I wish it were simpler to create multiple wire attachment points on one side of a shape, using a snap-to-grid alignment. There are times when I need 4+ discrete wires running into one side of a shape, and I don't necessarily want them all going to the central point. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam is solving the problem of communicating about technical system layouts with people who are not accustomed to verbally processing such layouts. ### 41. FigJam is my go-to for brainstorming, strategizing, and sharing ideas with co-workers **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Patrick T. | Lifecycle Marketing Specialist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** FigJam's #1 value to me is flexibility. My team collaborates with a lot of other stakeholders, so the ability to visualize complex concepts in a quick and digestible way is incredibly helpful. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** I wish FigJam were more directly compatible with Figma without some loss in quality copying back and forth. When taking designs from Figma to FigJam, or copying idea maps from FigJam to Figma, the format usually changes somewhat and requires additional work to clean up. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam allows my team to share complex ideas with others in a fast and easy-to-use way. We often turn to FigJam for mapping marketing campaigns, hosting collaborative feedback sessions for new designs, and brainstorming high-level user journeys. ### 42.

These downsides should be considered alongside your specific project requirements and constraints.

Streamlining Efficiency **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Adriene M. | Product Design Lead, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 18, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** FigJam is a remarkable collaborative whiteboarding tool that has truly revolutionized the way teams brainstorm and collaborate. Its user-friendly interface and extensive range of features make it a delight to work with. I particularly admire how effortlessly it enables users to visualize ideas, organize information, and foster creative thinking. The real-time collaboration capabilities make teamwork a breeze, allowing individuals to contribute and iterate in a seamless and efficient manner. Overall, FigJam is an invaluable asset for any team seeking to enhance productivity, foster innovation, and bring their ideas to life. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** As a designer, there are a few aspects of FigJam that I find could be improved. Firstly, while the tool offers a decent range of basic design elements, it lacks more advanced design features and customization options. This limitation sometimes restricts my ability to create visual boards in FigJam itself. Additionally, while the real-time collaboration is fantastic, it would be beneficial to have more control over versioning and the ability to revert to previous states of the board. This would provide a safety net for design iterations and allow for easier experimentation without the fear of losing valuable work. Lastly, while FigJam integrates well with Figma, I would appreciate even more seamless integration with other design tools and platforms, expanding its compatibility and flexibility for designers working across different environments. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam is solving several critical problems and greatly benefiting my workflow. Firstly, it provides a collaborative whiteboarding space that facilitates brainstorming and ideation sessions with my team. The real-time collaboration feature allows us to work together seamlessly, regardless of our physical locations, fostering a more inclusive and efficient creative process. FigJam also addresses the need for visualizing and organizing ideas effectively. Its intuitive interface and diverse range of design elements make it easy to sketch out concepts, create flowcharts, wireframes, and mind maps. This allows me to quickly translate my thoughts into visual representations, saving time and effort compared to traditional methods. ### 44. An almost perfect tool that has lots of nice userfriendly features. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 18, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** I love lots of features about figjam! First of all I love the whole interface and how easy it is to move arround (at least with a Mac device. Postits, highlighters, markers, stickers, signature on postits, colorwheel are basics that make working with Figjam a true pleasure.Then it also have features such as timer, music, call, voting that ad even more value and helps when carrying out some seshs. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** Eventhough I love the tool there are some things I don't like or that I think could be improved. My highest pain points would be the 24 hour session for non registerd users... This is truly nongood when trying to do sessions with people and I've to be constantly opening the file for 24 hours. Ahother thing I'd like Figjam to have is the ability of hide postits content until the author want to reveal the content. That would be amazing for Retrospective sessions. Another thing that pisses me of a lot is the connections beheabour... Is not inteligent... it does'nt adapt as it should... the starting point of a connection from a box should change if I move the connected box so the path is the shortest. And a little one at the end, would be amazing Figjam whas Giff compatible. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** Figjam let me collaborate with my team in so many maners. At the end is not only a whiteboard where we can do collaborative seshs it is also a tooll we use for wireframing and quick things that let us bee apart from our Figma branches and files organization. ### 45. An Easy To Adopt Solution For Teams To Brainstorm **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** David K. | President, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 13, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** I like that FigJam is cloud-based and super easy for my team to get into the whiteboard right away and the functionality is easy to adopt - saving my team from any time investment to get involved. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** My only dislike with FigJam is the way that the pricing and plan types for users are broken into different categories (design and prototyping vs. whiteboarding) - as a marketing agency we utilize both and it's confusing. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam solves the problem of giving my agile team a quick and easy solution for collaboration on new campaigns, and products, and whiteboarding/brainstorming new ideas. ### 46. Easy and neat tool for team collabration **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gopi T. | Staff Firmware Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 09, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** For me being a designer, it made the collaboration with team members much more accessible and efficient. The high is a real-time collaboration with the team this helps in remote working irrespective of the location which helps in work together quickly iterate. Additionally pre made templates and design component accelerates the development. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** 1. It is limited in options available in terms of brainstorming compare to its competitor. (Interface is very amateur and somewhat clunky) 2. real time collabration is slow or laggy. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** it helps remote team to brainstrom effectively (could be improved)and work together in real time. Share the ideas, concepts and design visually in digital space App workflow or firmware workflow in a UML way **Official Response from Hassam Farooq:** > Hi Gopi, thanks for the feedback and sharing your experience. We are always looking for ways to improve the brainstorming functionality within FigJam. If you have any specific feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly. Best, Hassam ### 47. Perfect Collab tool for jam board **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Parth D A. | Peer Tutor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 01, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** The best part about FigJam is the same as any other product by Figma, the collaboration tool. Collaboration is very helpful and easy to use, even for a new user. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** Sometimes it takes a long time for the files to load and the export option doesn't come handy all the time. The full page is the layout which sometimes is not so easy to navigate to understand the artboard. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** We as a team can drop in any idea any time and other person can view them at their convenience and can live track any changes happening to the file and thus increases productivity and lowers time to talk one to one even over online channels like MS teams or Whatsapp. ### 48. An essential tool for collaborative teams **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospitality | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** Anyone can get in there and start using it. It's pretty intuitive and we use it all the time across many teams to collaborate, brainstorm, plan, whiteboard, etc. We also switched to using FigJam for all team retros in the company. All the templates, timer, stickers, music, and more make FigJam fun to use - but not in a way that distracts from the work. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** I don't dislike the tool at all. I will say one pain point we ran into is that there currently isn't a way to use stickies while maintaining anonymity. Anyone can go click an icon to toggle the original authors name off and on to see who said it – not ideal for retros BUT our account rep taught us to switch to shapes and we no longer have this problem. Would be nice to have a retro setting on a FigJam that would preserve the psychological safety of team members. We feel extremely supported by our awesome account rep. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam fills the role of a handful of tools we were previously using across the business. We were able to consolidate and say this is the true, approved tool across the company. It's helped teams align and ensure access across the company via single sign on. The access issues we had previously with InVision/Freehand, Miro, etc. are long gone. No more requesting to view or edit access! ### 49. Amazing experience, but there's room to improve **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** I'm a copywriter, and using Figma was a big learning curve for me to work with my company's designers. FigJam, on the other hand, was super easy to learn. I use it for even the simplest things like group brainstorming sessions and just mapping out my thoughts. I would say that it's a key tool in our team. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** I can't say that I have a specific problem with FigJam. It's a great tool. I guess my only callout would be that I'd like to have more features. It's easy to use but I'm sure there are additional features you could add to make it more fun and interactive. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** FigJam makes it really easy for me, a copywriter who's also very visual, to map out my thoughts and get organized. Honestly, I don't use it often, but when I need help figuring out my thoughts in a visual way, I can't think of a better tool. ### 50. Great tool for cross-functional collaboration **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kristine H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2023 **What do you like best about FigJam?** What I like about Figjam is that it's easy to use and provides some templates (with instructions) so that teams can get onboarded quickly and start collaborating. I've used Figjam with other designers and also with non-design/tech team members, and we've benefitted tremendously from using Figjam as a fun collaboration tool. **What do you dislike about FigJam?** While I like that Figjam provides basic tools for brainstorming and real-time collaboration, I sometimes find it can be too limiting. I wish there were more customization options related to shapes, colours, and fonts, so that my teammates and I can explore crude wireframes that are just a little more detailed than the rounded rectangles and other shapes that Figjam allows. When the project moves to that stage, I end up moving to regular Figma and using the comment functionality there, or, if it's difficult to manage access, create shapes in a Figma file then copy/paste into Figjam which can be tedious. **What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our team likes to use Figjam primarily because it's provided by Figma. We use Figma for design anyway, so its handy to have Figma provide an internal whiteboarding/collaboration tool without us having to create account & learn another platform. - [View FigJam pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/fig-jam/reviews?page=2§ion=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-07-21+01%3A12%3A44+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=93835445-2019-4af1-bb00-76c2659250fb&secure%5Btoken%5D=de8ce1d2c5f58e41a6f3cb522d260bfc8cf620cda0056b31480b0f147cd3be86&format=llm_user) ## FigJam Integrations - [Figma](https://www.g2.com/products/figma/reviews) ## FigJam Features **Communication** - Status Updates - Notifications - Comments and Voting - Discussions - Online Status of Coworkers **Design Tools** - Drawing - Marker Colors - Mind Mapping - Templates - Drag-and-Drop **Collaboration Tools** - Collaborative Editing - Task Management - Notes and Comments **Collaboration** - Integrated Communications - Native Communications - Board Overview **Content Management** - File Sharing - Document Collaboration - Version Control - Tagging - Knowledge Base - Surveys **Communication Tools** - Voting - Commenting **Visual Tools** - Styles and Themes - Image Import - Custom Icons **Productivity Tools** - Task Management - Calendar - Search - Mobile - Multi-Language Support **Integrations** - CMS Integrations - Sharing **Mind Map Availability ** - File Formats - Cloud Storage Integration - Mobile Application - Desktop Availability **Hardware** - Required Hardware - Bring Your Own Device **Administration** - Moderation - User, Role, and Access Management - Performance and Reliability **Software Offering** - In-Browser - Desktop App - Mobile App ** Security** - Permissions - Single Sign-On (SSO) **Agentic AI - Mind Mapping** - Autonomous Task Execution - Decision Making **Agentic AI - Collaborative Whiteboard** - Autonomous Task Execution - Cross-system Integration - Adaptive Learning **Agentic AI - Visual Collaboration Platforms** - Autonomous Task Execution - Natural Language Interaction ## Top FigJam Alternatives - [Miro](https://www.g2.com/products/miro/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (13,142 reviews) - [Lucid Visual Collaboration Suite](https://www.g2.com/products/lucid-software-inc-lucid-visual-collaboration-suite/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (8,697 reviews) - [Mural](https://www.g2.com/products/mural/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (1,401 reviews)
