I don't do UI design so I never heard of InVision before. I googled around and Crunchbase says they've gotten $235 million in funding[1]. A youtube channel shows some demos[2].
Is InVision considered the best of the design tools compared to competitors?

- 2to15characters 8y agoThey used to be, they filled an unmet need in the design tools space (clickable prototypes) for years. Lately tools for interface design (Figma, Framer X, Quartz Composer, Origami, etc) have Invision’s main feature baked into their software (where the work is being created) so there‘s less need for designers to use it. Invision intended to get into the creation tools market, but suffered a poorly-managed rollout of their application, and has been floundering since.
- bbarn 8y agoThey also had a fairly drastic price increase that made our company scale licenses back to only designers, which has reduced the collaborative aspect it once had.
- Bahamut 8y agoEven UI developers often get exposed to Invision, especially if mobile is involved - it’s a very useful tool.
