InVision Reviews & Product Details

InVision is a great tool. It's a massive game-changer to quickly create prototypes from images or Sketch files, with clicks, hovers, overlays, and more means rapid prototyping to get ideas in front of users and stakeholders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

InVision stopped innovating on its prototyping side and focused on other tools that, while useful are not the core of the tool. The Design System Manager is nice, the Craft plugin is helpful, and the freehand is a good add-on whiteboarding tool. But Freehand is not the best digital whiteboarding tool, and with InVision's focus on them, it's also no longer the most feature-dense prototyping tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's so helpful in showcasing and explaining project prototypes to all stakeholders and having them get a feel for apps/sites before any development work is done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It glitches out sometimes, for example, when you first go to a new project, the first page won't load and you have to refresh the browser to have it appear. Apart from that all good! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's an easy to use real time alignment tool for aligning on design feedback, functionality, and also communication with any engineering partners. It's probably one of the most critical tools we use to make sure we build what we design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the plugins honestly can be a little wonky. I find the craft plugin to be a little unpredictable especially when it's trying to update. At times it will "go out of sync" requiring you to re-integrate it. I find that to be frustrating at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The craft plugin allows users to sync their Sketch boards directly to InVision to easily (for the most part) update and manage artboards. We're moving to a new design program soon that is more all-inclusive and I'm excited to try that one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Customer service is polite but very slow to resolve tickets, InVision can be quite slow and buggy, it adds an extra step (sometimes extra steps) vs a program that has prototyping within it, the UX/UI of the program could be improved (i.e. creating work spaces, saved preferences, filters, etc) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the user-friendly interface that allowed me to design UIs for various devices. The readily available customer service is also great. The ability to produce wireframes has helped me in my prototypes too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I had issues with the client version of the application. It usually has errors saving the files, but the web version is great and I really appreciate the readily available customer support on account of any problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a couple of things actually -

1. Easy to use interface. Very clean and intuitive.

2. The relative ease of sharing the mock screens and prototypes via links with my team and others.

3. The usability in general is pretty awesome. It's also available on mobile so that's a plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There aren't many complaints regarding Invision but there are definitely some nit-picks worth mentioning. I would definitely love the ability to explain my app flow using some sort of a site map that isn't available right now. Also, I would love it if there could be better connectivity between my design tools such as Figma and Adobe XD that would allow me to make real-time updates to my site's screens. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For me, there are a few things that InVision does best-

1. Simple stitching for UI screens. Anyone without experience can come on the app and build a prototype. It's that simple.

2. Great way to collaborate and get feedback. For me, InVision was a platform to test my design ideas with users and stakeholders. Stakeholders and teammates can easily browse designs and leave comments. And, these comments, can be resolved, replied to...

3. InVision board was another nice tool that I used within the subscription. It helps create moodboards and collate ideas.

4. Maintaining a UI project is easy and one can create sections as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I faced multiple issues with InVision -

1. The new interface overhaul that InVision did, broke the design and usability. I wish they had not done that. Ever since they did it, I have left using the product and shifted to another competitive product.

2. With the new design change, the share capability became 2 steps longer and difficult to share with people without InVision account.

3. Another big problem that I often face is that it used to log me out after every week or two. And, logging process of InVision also is not so great. Once, you log in, you have to navigate again to find the recent projects that you are working on.

4. No plugin for XD and Figma.

Lastly, I think InVision shouldn't try to get into screen creation space. There are already better tools out there so they should rather invest effort in facilitating other tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Invision helps to create mock ups easily. Easy for anyone to use. It allows to try multiple design solutions before delivering the actual mock ups for the projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only the performance I don't like in Invision. Multiple projects can be created and n number of mock ups can be uploaded but if the count of mock ups in a particular space is more than 1000 for example it takes a lot of time to open the space. Sometimes opening a single mock up takes a lot of time. Performance needs improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The prototyping experience is at par with some of the most popular tools out there today. In some situations, it stands out even further regarding the flexibility InVision provides. This is the reason why I consider the prototyping experience of InVision the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The lack of certain features that are prevalent in almost all popular designing tools today is a bit baffling. However, InVision tends to outperform its prototyping abilities - which is why I'd like to suggest diversification of design tools - and sticking to InVision just for the prototyping aspect.

The Easy to add UI controls make it easy for the designer without a tech background to create beautiful wireframes. The ability to add flows to the wireframe gives the product an excellent idea of how the application would work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would have loved it if the final wireframes could be deployed/hosted somewhere and open as an app/website for a broader section of the team to experience and provide feedback on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
