"Smooth Collaboration for Designers"
5/5
What do you like best about Figma?

What I like most about Figma is how easy it makes collaboration. I can work on designs, share them with teammates, and get feedback in real time without sending files back and forth. The interface is clean and easy to learn, but it still has enough advanced features for more detailed design work. I also like that everything is cloud-based, so I can access my projects from anywhere. Overall, it helps me move from ideas to finished designs much faster and keeps the whole design process organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Figma?

One thing I don’t like about Figma is that it can slow down when working on very large files with lots of pages, components, and prototypes. Since it is browser-based, performance also depends on the internet connection and the computer being used. I’ve also noticed that some useful features and advanced collaboration tools are only available in the paid plans. That said, these issues haven’t had a major impact on my work, and the overall experience is still very positive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple, powerful design tool for seamless team collaboration"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Figma?

What I like most about figma is how easy it is to collaborate with others in real time. I've worked with tools where sharing designs felt like a task, but with figma, it's as simple as sending a link. Multiple team members can on the same file without conflicts, which really speeds up the workflow,

The interface is also very clean and intuative. Even if someone is new to design tools, they can get comfortable within a short time, Features like auto-layout, components, and plugins save a lot of time and make design systems easier to manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Figma?

One thing I've noticed is that performance can slow down a bit when working on very large files or complex prototype, especially on lower-end systems. Also, since it's browser-based, a stable internet connection is important offline capabilities are still limited.

That said these issues are not major blocker for me, but there's defineitely room for improvement in performance optimization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Figma’s Open-Ended Powerhouse for Design, Prototyping, and Presentations"
4/5
What do you like best about Figma?

The best part about Figma is how open-ended it is. You go in thinking you’ll use it for one thing, and suddenly it’s your design tool, prototyping tool, and presentation builder. We use it for social content, website concepts, and internal decks. I still find new features randomly, which says a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Figma?

The biggest downside for me is the learning curve. It’s powerful, but not always the most intuitive when you’re starting out. There’s a bit of a “figure it out as you go” phase before everything clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless Real-Time Collaboration and Powerful Cloud-Based Design in Figma"
5/5
What do you like best about Figma?

What I like most about Figma is its real-time collaboration, which makes teamwork seamless and efficient. The intuitive interface and powerful design tools also help speed up the entire design process. Additionally, being cloud-based allows easy access and sharing from anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Figma?

One downside of Figma is that it can become slow or laggy when working on large or complex files. Some advanced features are limited compared to other design tools, which can be restrictive for more detailed workflows. Additionally, it relies heavily on an internet connection, which can be inconvenient at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5

Figma is a very amazing tool i regular use at my motion design studio because it really helps me to create amazing moodboards storyboards and it helps me to review my team's material too and then we can send it easily tp the client. Ui is smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Figma?

For figma you need to have an active internet connection, that is the downside. unlike illustrator you can not work smoothly without internet on figma and also it lags sometimes in handling large files such as large storyboards and moodboards Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive tool for fast webpage builds"
5/5
What do you like best about Figma?

The UI is intuitive and user-friendly, and it’s very easy to pick up if you’re already familiar with Adobe products. I also like the effect options—things like layer blur help me create stunning designs easily.

There are a wide range of plug ins available, and the platform is superfast with no lag or loading times.

Gradients are handled better too, with hardly any banding compared with more traditional apps like Adobe Illustrator. On top of that, I can easily design web pages and build out component libraries. There’s also a great community around the platform, with lots of inspiring designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Figma?

The custom vector-building tools aren’t as flexible as programs like Adobe Illustrator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"All-in-One Toolset and Plugins Make Designing in Figma Easy"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Figma?

It has a bunch of different tools, like slides, design features, a board, an AI coder, and more. Overall, these make it easier for me to create different things and designs in Figma without much trouble.

It also helps that the software has plugins. They’ve helped me add different things in Figma while designing, like icons or placeholder frames. These plugins also helped when I wanted to shift my Figma design to some different software, like Framer or Webflow, although the transfer doesn’t always go smoothly. Sometimes things change on their own, like the auto layout, shapes, or positioning.

When there’s no internet, I personally didn’t realize I was working offline, which caused delayed syncs with other people working on the same project. For pricing, I’m on a student account, so I’m not having to pay anything as such, but I do feel the pricing is probably high for a designer in India.

Overall, the app didn’t feel too hard to use. There have been a few confusing moments, like when making slides and switching between slides and design/edit mode, but I guess I’ll get used to it later on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Figma?

I think the app could benefit from having some integrated plugins in a more accessible spot, so I don’t have to keep going back to the Plugins tab and reopening the one I just closed just to get a clearer view of the app. It doesn’t take a lot of time, but it does distract me a bit. For example, it would be nice if I could pin a plugin—like the Phosphor icon plugin—into a side tab myself for quicker access.

Other than that, I haven’t really run into many issues yet, since I’m still exploring the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Figma: Essential Tool for Efficient UI/UX Design"
5/5
What do you like best about Figma?

I use Figma for UI/UX designing for apps, webapps, and websites. Figma addresses my main issues of time and workload with features like auto layout, variables, and components that drastically reduce time consumption and workload. I like Figma's user interface. Figma's plugins and Figjam are very useful; Figjam makes creating flowcharts and wireframes much easier, and the plugins help with product testing or creating UI features not available directly in Figma, like pie charts. The initial setup of Figma was quite easy, and I did not have any problems setting up or learning it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Figma?

Heavy files sometimes crash the application. Being offline doesn't let us load a new file or access component library, making offline work heavily restricted and even unusable. Prototype lags a lot on my workstation, making it a bit lighter may help a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Design, Exceptional Value"
5/5
What do you like best about Figma?

I find Figma incredibly easy to use, which allows me to make good-looking content quickly and seamlessly across all media. I appreciate the ease of use and the price, making it a great tool for scaling up internal production quickly. The initial setup was extremely easy. The number of integrations are also helpful, and easy to set up/use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Figma?

It's not possible at the moment to make more complex components - we'd like to completely scope out a website to send to our dev team, but it's not quite there yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
