Used to use sketch, moved to Invision and finally landed on figma - and heck I'm not even a UI/UX designer.

I love how I can put up nice designs relatively quickly without having to learn the dazzling array of menus and tools found in Adobe.

We are also fan of Figma. It's easy to work together inside the same design and the results are easy to test and present. But be warned of vendor lock-in! You can't use .fig files in other programs. Before you move your complete Sketch design library into Figma, think carefully. They make switching to Figma easy, but switching away hard. Converting your complete Figma library can be done with xd2sketch.com for hundreds to thousands of dollars. Our policy is that we only make one-offs in Figma and delete them afterwards.
