What do you like best about Axure RP?

Very powerful prototyping tool, allow you to embed logic and transitions into your prototype, and make it a real functional prototype. You can have your prototype carry user input from screens to screens or pages to pages, so the experience for the prototype testers are very close to the real thing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Axure RP?

Learning curve might be steep for some users. But once you master it, you will find it very powerful compared with other so-called "prototyping" tools out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Axure RP:

Spend time to onboard your team, set up team sharing, checking in/out process.

Watch out the learning curve, some people may drop out in the early stage, try to help them out

Start with small, keep your prototype less complex.

There are free and paid resources available, try to utilize that.

Start to build your own libraries.

Share your ideas and questions/answers via the communities websites

Enjoy! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Axure RP?

It was a bit hard to learn the tool and integrate in my team. Due to the fact it's a bit costly for small teams, when we didn't use it for a while, and we already started collaborating with other teams using dogma, Adobe and other tools, we decided to let axure go Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Axure RP solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's hard delivering a product plan, when defining the website hierarchy, and visualizing to clients became a bit pricey. Axure allowed us to share the prototype of the design, without the need to have actual UI. Delivering the prototype, fully working worked nicely with the ease of deploying to the web for demonstration purposes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Could use an improved user interface and more collaboration features, the current options are quite basic. Sometimes get a message saying the file wasn't saved due to internet connection issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Most powerful, easy-to-use wireframing tool. One can quickly build high-fidelity prototypes using simple drag-and-drop options. Using dynamic panels, we can make UI look more realistic. With Axure cloud its easy to share, collaborate with peers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visuals convey the message better than words. Axure RP helps thousand of companies to transform their project requirements into Visual requirements.

What do you like best about Axure RP?

Axure makes generating functional specs for prototypes very easy by automating a specs template (though many teams no longer use these types of specifications). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Axure RP?

Axure's tools for prototyping, such as conditional logic and use of data tables, are SO powerful so as to be overkill in most situations... it's almost a distraction for a design tool to have so much complexity and logic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Axure RP solving and how is that benefiting you?

Prototyping to get user feedback and illustrate intended functionality, along with specifications for development. Many powerful features are not specifically necessary, however, and go unused. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Axure RP?

I love how I can create visual content for anything with a user interface quickly with Axure. I love how easily I can share those visualizations with team members, whether internal or external. I also love creating my mockups to be as simple or complex as needed. It's excellent for testing and development—outstanding, great tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Axure RP?

There's not much to dislike. I suppose there are other tools like iRise that offer more of a development-like tool to create more complex mockups, but I've found that the simpler you can make your visualizations, the easier they are to be adopted. Everyone should just keep it simple in my opinion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Axure RP:

Axure is inexpensive and easy to use. Start with a free trial and learn all you can about it. It's a great tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Axure RP solving and how is that benefiting you?

We're trying to get to market quickly. Axure allows us to show a mockup of an application or website quickly. This way, we can get the client's feedback and incorporate it into the finished product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
