Super easy to use, yet not as comprehensive as other software of the same type **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** AJ R. | Consumer Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 05, 2018 **What do you like best about Mockingbird?** This software is definitely easy to use, and it is simple, if that is what you are looking for. If you are newer to app development, this software would definitely support you during each phase of app development. No one who I know who has worked with it dislikes it, regardless of their savviness with similar or more complex software. The overall design and layout is intuitive and pleasing. **What do you dislike about Mockingbird?** There are other programs out there that offer more complex functions, but this is a great starter program. It does have a tendency to freeze a bit, but this might be exclusive to our resources/capacity. Again, if you are super savvy with more complex programs, you might not like the simplicity of mockingbird. I don't think that purchasing this software would be at all a gamble. **Recommendations to others considering Mockingbird:** great customer service, simple product, gives clean results! Not at all complex, so even entry-level support could easily utilize this product. We have been very pleased with the ease of use and results. **What problems is Mockingbird solving and how is that benefiting you?** Overall, it is simple and straightforward, and having interns utilize the software has been great, without expending too much training time, when manpower could be better utilized elsewhere. Time and manpower are at a premium for us, so the more that the less experienced employees can do, the better. This is a super excellent training program and has worked wonders for us so far. ### 7. the bird **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Arts and Crafts | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 08, 2019 **What do you like best about Mockingbird?** What i like bout this app is that it is easy to use for writing a eassy n it works very good because u dont have to worry bout palagrism n it helps u design easy things. **What do you dislike about Mockingbird?** i dont dislike it becuase its nothing to dislike bout it **Recommendations to others considering Mockingbird:** please use its a very good app for desiging software **What problems is Mockingbird solving and how is that benefiting you?** benefits helps gets work done faster for us ### 8.

It's clean UI and intuitive interface makes it a breeze to use. **What do you dislike about Mockingbird?** Could use a few more functions. But for a basic site, Mockingbird handles everything I need it to. **Recommendations to others considering Mockingbird:** It's a great tool for wireframes. **What problems is Mockingbird solving and how is that benefiting you?** I like to show every client a rough wireframe mockup before starting on any build. It helps make sure the client has an idea of what I'm envisioning. ### 15. Limited capabilities but thoughtful **Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 01, 2018 **What do you like best about Mockingbird?** I feel like mockingbird was quick and light for wireframing, and it was good that they offered a "super low fi" mode. I could use mockingbird on my Chromebook. **What do you dislike about Mockingbird?** I didn't think that the design options were as robust as sketch or uxpin. I dislike being hemmed in to present UI elements. **What problems is Mockingbird solving and how is that benefiting you?** I decided to go with sketch instead, since sketch has more shape merging capabilities and plugins to customize the software. ### 16.

Easy to use **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 31, 2017 **What do you like best about Mockingbird?** It is easy to use, once you get going and you can get the layout you require. It has worked for me but you need a bit of patience. Once you get to know your way around it it can be really quite easy and quick. To add something new its a easy double click or drag and drop feature which is a bonus. All the other features are self explanatory. Things are easy to resize and move around. **What do you dislike about Mockingbird?** A few features are slow to load which makes the experience a pretty bad one. It does not have as many features as other similar software there in having it's limitations. But if you need to use it to do something simple its fine. **Recommendations to others considering Mockingbird:** Have a look at the online version first to make sure it is what you require **What problems is Mockingbird solving and how is that benefiting you?** Doing a lot of new layouts and this is helping with that ### 18. Mockingbird is a lifesaver. **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Aly N. | Content Strategist, Internet, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 16, 2016 **What do you like best about Mockingbird?** This might be the best mockup program I've used so far. My coworkers love it and I've found that it's user-friendly enough to even accommodate me—that being said, I'm not very UI savvy. So take from that what you will. **What do you dislike about Mockingbird?** The toolbar can be hard to track down and, along with that, the program overall doesn't offer a lot of guidance. I had my coworkers to help me, but I think if I'd been using it alone, it would've taken me a lot longer to get acclimated. It would also be nice to have more export options, but I'm sure an update will bring those eventually. **Recommendations to others considering Mockingbird:** It's definitely worth a shot if you're in the business for it—if not, I'm not sure it's a software program you'd necessarily need. **What problems is Mockingbird solving and how is that benefiting you?** It definitely saves time and headaches—and that's kind of what most software is for. ### 19.

Fast, free, and easy. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Victor O. | Sales Director, Telecommunications, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 28, 2012 **What do you like best about Mockingbird?** Extremely intuitive and easy to use for the beginner. I needed to quickly mock-up some UI flows for a website our team was constructing and Mockingbird was recommended to me by a friend. I was able to be up and running in 5 minutes with a free account, with very extensive features and able to complete wire-frame mock-ups for the flow very quickly with their drag and drop system. Their system also makes it very easy to export the wire-frame files you create as PNG's for use in an explanatory Powerpoint presentation. **What do you dislike about Mockingbird?** When you re-log in to the system, it is a bit difficult to find where your previous work is the first time (because their upper toolbar is inconspicuous). **Recommendations to others considering Mockingbird:** You can get a very good amount done with just their free plan, which lets you have up to 10 pages wire-framed out and 2 users working on the same project. For bigger projects, their Personal and Team plans are very affordable. ### 26.

Very easy to use and intuitive -- drag and drop widgets, group, etc., and share. It's possible to mock and then link up multiple pages. I esp like the fact that it is web-based and immediately went to the layout page with drag and drop funcationality **What do you dislike about Mockingbird?** Can export as pdf or png but not as many file formats as I'd like (at least in the free version). **Recommendations to others considering Mockingbird:** There's much to like and little to dislike here.
