Invision has a very powerful prototyping software - their app makes it very handily and professional to show sketches to clients - and most importantly, to users for testing in a high fidelity environment, yet practical. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some elements remain not as intuitive, as for instance setting a screen to be the start of the journey, as well as replacing it with another. Integration with plugins isn’t always great, as it’s often the case with Anima. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The inspect mode, with the possibility to change the units (px, points, cm) and the language of some code (XCode, CSS, SCSS) is really good, as well as the interactive ruler that shows the size of regions, groups and elements, as well as the spacing between them. The assets tab is great for designers to send pieces and slices of images and designs to the developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We suffer from the lack of better transitions (between screens) and effects and animations (between small and micro-interactions), and the "linking" feature, to connect screens for navigating through the prototype could be more intuitive. Sometimes it is a little bit slow, and it can loose some design information, making it necessary to re-upload some files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

InVision is a well-thought-out software that is web-based and easy to use. I have used it to show clients what their responsive web pages look like on different devices--smartphones and different larger screen sizes. InVision allows me to create "clickable" areas and live workflows so the prototype looks like the real thing. I can show prototypes on any web-connected device, or I can sent my clients a link to the prototype and allow them to comment. I also like the InVision blog, as it has timely and relevant content.

The free version limits the number of demos you can use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The number one thing - it saves me from the days when I needed to send JPEGS to my clients with the designs and where each JPEG to be indifferent hights people would see it very zoomed out. inVision has created a tool where you can preview JPEGS in a web-like form and allows you to link it all together as if it were a real website. The ease of exporting to inVision from Sketch is absolutely great! I love the inspect element function that allows developers to just see the style of everything without me having to babysit them during every step of the development. The same applies for the assets exporting too - straight to inVision directly from sketch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

inVision's customer account service is not great, I was paying for my steam account and then wanted to transfer ownership but they just left me doing that on my own regardless that I was a paying customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The all-inclusive team collab and rapid sketching, commenting on the same platform. Another great feature is the possibility to animate all-in-one, without having too much artboards for animation instead, you have a timeline just as if you were designing in Adobe Premiere, which is great. You get complex animations for the same artboard transition or for just buttons. Another big plus is the website is filled with video tutorials, community for Q&A and you can clearly see it's well maintained by the admins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's unfinished in some extensions power compared to Sketch, but I've importing back and forth to sort this out for me. It'll be just a matter of time for more plugins will come when ready to deploy. I hope in the next years InVision Studio can position themselves as #1 against the competitors and be the final tool for sketching and UI design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great Integrations with other creative software for smooth workflows Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited functionality for non users if I'm just wanting clients to review Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how the clean, quick interface Invision has and I love how you can import files directly from Sketch or Photoshop. I also appreciate that updates are made in real-time and you can see the changes you've made to hotspots applied on the screen the moment you switch from building mode to preview mode. The freehand is really useful when I just want to draw up a quick idea or even take handwritten notes. If you have a touchscreen computer, you can really benefit from this feature.

One big thing is that you can not add a clickable hover state in Prototype mode! This is a feature people have been requesting for over a year. From what I see in forums, the support team keeps saying they will "send it to the devs to see if it's a feature that can be added" but have never followed through. This is an essential feature that is being overlooked. For example, if you want a dropdown menu to appear when you hover over a menu item AND be able to click on the individual menu items in the dropdown this is NOT POSSIBLE in Invision. You can only have one or the other. As a workaround, I have made the menus appear by clicking instead of hovering but it involves importing transparent menus which is clunky and time-consuming. Please fix this, devs!

In addition to the freehand feature, I wish there was an option to prototype with custom wireframes with a tool which allows you to choose from wireframe presets and build your site from the ground up that way. Sometimes, freehanding is not really an option. Also, you should be able to directly import files from Adobe Illustrator and Adobe XD as those are more widely used for web design rather than Photoshop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

InVision is a powerful tool for designing and prototyping websites and mobile devices. InVision is web application other than traditional mockups software. Without writing a line of code, you can get a working prototype of a site, test its user experience, involving the whole team asynchronously and improving work processes in the creation of new sites and web interfaces.

InVision allows more people to collaborate and work on a project in the most effective and simple way, to see the mockup and note feedback and comments directly on the UI.

Today Large companies such as Cisco, Uber, Lyft, Adobe, Oracle, Paypal, Mailchimp, Evernote, Zendesk, Eventbrite, Soundcloud etc. using InVision. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

First of all, the performance (speed) of the software is slow: this is because InVision is a Web Application based on HTML5 and CSS3 technologies (AngularJS, ReactJs, RxJs, Raphael etc.). Furthermore, the import of sketch files is not always perfect.

Help in various languages is not available. It is easier to find interesting material (layouts, mockups, icons etc.) directly in other formats for other software (such as Sketch). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it is easy to work with, the comments, and the availability of many functions. Also, uploading PSD or Sketch files is available, for PS with a plugin. Comments also help me a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that the app becomes slow when more than 100 screens are uploaded, probably due to the free version I use, but still, it is uncomfortable. Also, downloading all the screens on the device when using the mobile version is very inconvenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
