What do you like best about FigJam?

it is pretty easy and intuitive to use, you can onboard and start working immediately ..the UI and the UX is very smooth and easy to understand, kudos to the implementation of the product.. I did not feel the need to reach out to the customer support for any help ever and the updates are fantastic. I use it very regularly to explain complex mechanisms and easily chart out the simple processes. I did not get a chance to integrate Figjam with anything, did not feel the need even. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FigJam?

Discovering the customer support or the help is a little tough, and I could not figure out how to integrate figjam with any other products or services.. it was hard to locate the integrations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about FigJam?

FigJam is a really delightful piece of software to use. It is full of interesting and exciting interactions and it makes collaborating while working remotely really enjoyable.

It has some great features like sections for sticky notes, lots of templates for common whiteboarding tasks, AI summaries of sticky notes, and then also lots of fun features too, such as the Polaroid widget and other interactive games and widgets.

I've used it regularly to make some really exciting interactive workshops where people have been fully remote and people have fed back that it is a really enjoyable piece of software to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FigJam?

It's a bit expensive if you're not already within the Figma ecosystem.

Also sharing a lnik to open a FigJam file is harder than it needs to be (starting an open access session) . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?

FigJam helps me to solve two major problems.

The first one is just for mapping out processes and flows in my head, so making information architecture diagrams or user flow diagrams for my work as a UX designer.

The second is it helps me collaborate remotely with other people. By using FigJam, we can all jump into the same file and work through a workshop template or put ideas down in the same place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

FigJam Gives usto showcase our ideas, design & it allows us to work in a team. It is becoming trendy day by day in designer communinty. You can use it for User Interface designing for web or app both.

They are also providing sticky notes, emojis, drawing tools.

Best Part about figma is you don't required any prior experience in it compare to PSD & sketch.

There community is very strong you can find so many effective work from there and use it for your work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FigJam?

One of the main drawbacks of it is you can not work offline.

You cannot add custom shapes, gradients, or patterns.

It does not offer video tutorial or or animation capabilities.

It is also a paid software so it is not physiable for students, employees etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?

they are improving their vector-based designing functionality compared to photoshop, which is very beneficial.

And they are also working in person who don't know about white mapping. They can get a quick guide from their web.

They are also trying to make it free for everyone students, professionals, organization so it will be very beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about FigJam?

I love all the templates and features it has for collaborating. You can pretty compile lots of data on here for your team to review in a structured way. Super easy to use for everyone on the team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FigJam?

i wish it had more features from Figma and better connects with bringing in wireframes from Figma. For example if i copy a wireframe over, i have very limited functionality in making any changes. I wish i could merge cells in the table and have something like auto-layout for the tables so as the data in the table in increasing the table adjusts Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about FigJam?

While working on Figma it usually difficult to connect and collaborate with the devs from my software team, who are working in different states and cities, Figjam has proven to be a proper and functional place to envision, monitor and bring new ideas to life. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FigJam?

i know thate there is a verbal connect option avaiable to better collaborate but would have appricated if there was a video conferencing option too Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?

our projects are usually a bit complex to be understood by one person and since most of the devs are working from their homes, Figjam has helped bridge that gap Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about FigJam?

I love how incredibly flexible FigJam is. Whether I'm facilitating a meeting with my product team, running a design studio, having an inspiration/ hangout sesh, or keeping track of my Brag Doc, I can use FigJam for EVERYTHING! It's easy to turn on an "open session" for people who don't normally use FigJam to attend a meeting and it's easy enough for anyone to pick up and use with me. The integrations are incredible and as they continue to roll out and I'm so excited to see how the AI continues to improve because it easily cuts my setup time by 90%! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FigJam?

Honestly, I don't have a single bad thing to say. The only feedback I've gotten from others is that they want the flame emote as a stamp! haha Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use FigJam to map out the team's vision and strategy to help us visualize everything before presenting it to management. We use FigJam to come together as a team (whether that's my product team, the UX team, or a larger group) to boost morale and get to know each other better. (High-fives anyone?)

What do you like best about FigJam?

The amount of work done on the software side, and the quality of the craft that comes into translating emotions into a discussion is fantastic. If I am trying to convince people to switch over to Figma from another tool, I will usually introduce them to Figjam first in order to lure them first. Overall some of my favorite features are the reaction wheel, the marker options, and the AI early explorations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FigJam?

The AI widgets can get a little too crazy. Sometimes bringing assets from the Figma design editor makes stuff behave in weird ways. I wish the cursor chat was more accesible for everybody, easier to cojure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FigJam solving and how is that benefiting you?

Figjam helps me align with teammates and stakeholders, both in a divergent stages and convergent decisions. It feels like a very natural space to throw out ideas without the worry for high resolution to be inserted all the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
