"The Best and simplest mark up tool"
What do you like best about Front Sketch?

A very simple interface accomodating the most needed features. Does not have too much of options and the developers have kept it quite simple and straight to the point. Just pick it mark it and explain it. I personally had recommended many users to try this since its so easy to use and no one needs any training or going through the help content it all. It was just like how I used to scribble using my pencil in my notebook !!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front Sketch?

"Sketch"
What do you like best about Front Sketch?

I found useful is the ability to create grids with a few clicks, customize the arrangement of the tools (Indeed this was one of the first steps starting with Sketch) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front Sketch?

"Negative" sides are few, but there are... Personally I am annoyed by the fact that the program is Mac only and therefore it doesn't allow me to share work files with those who work on windows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Front Sketch - Good Sketching software"
What do you like best about Front Sketch?

I like it's ability to sketch over the screen over other applications. This is very useful when providing training to our employees as we can also write notes and display ppts simultaneously. It also provides handy shortcuts to erase, copy and paste text which comes in very handy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front Sketch?

Sometimes the software glitches and we have to wait for some time for it to work again. There is a lag between the input we give and then the software to register it. This is something I don't like about the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It fullfill my requirements but still some time using with other applications it lags.

This happened occasionally, otherwise great tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
