Figma or Sketch?

Why have we chosen Figma over Sketch?

Are you thinking about changing your design software? Not sure what to choose? The good old Sketch or pioneering Figma?

We abandoned Sketch some time ago, following the example of the best in the industry, and embarked on the Figma adventure. Therefore, let us tell you why and perhaps ease your choice.

What is Sketch?

Sketch is essentially software for designing vector graphics. It is most often used for preparing UI and UX interfaces, and thanks to the easy scaling of designs, it can be employed for the application's design for desktop and mobile devices. Sketch offers, among other things, screen templates adapted to different devices, access to libraries of standard iOS, Android and Mac icons, streamlining functions for collaborative work, and extensive libraries and numerous plug-ins.

What is Figma?

Figma, on the other hand, is an innovative browser-based design tool. It has gained popularity by providing several useful design features. This application allows you to create user-friendly web pages relatively easily and quickly. It combines tools and solutions known from competing commercial graphics packages and allows the creation and editing of raster and vector graphics in a common e-workspace.

Why did we choose Figma over Sketch?

Designers are switching from Sketch to Figma every day, and we are no exception. Why the sudden change? Design and development agencies prefer Figma because it is simply an all-in-one solution for all creative processes and design endeavours. With Figma, you can easily collaborate on a project at any stage of its development. You can also complete a faster shipment of work to the client thanks to the interface design tools.?

Figma facilitates convenience by allowing you to create and design efficiently on the web. It is also more conducive to collaboration between teams than Sketch, as it offers flexibility and latitude.

In our opinion, the transition from Sketch to Figma has been well worth it. And how do you feel about it? Do you prefer the traditional Sketch or opt for the innovative Figma?
