What do you like best about Front Sketch?

I like it's ability to sketch over the screen over other applications. This is very useful when providing training to our employees as we can also write notes and display ppts simultaneously. It also provides handy shortcuts to erase, copy and paste text which comes in very handy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front Sketch?

Sometimes the software glitches and we have to wait for some time for it to work again. There is a lag between the input we give and then the software to register it. This is something I don't like about the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Front Sketch solving and how is that benefiting you?

During training sessions which mostly happen online we are able to write on the screen while we are presenting. This is very useful when we want to explain something in writing like we explain it on a board in a classroom. This helps in visualizing what we want which helps a lot in improving the understanding of the employees in the training sessions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Front Sketch?

A very simple interface accomodating the most needed features. Does not have too much of options and the developers have kept it quite simple and straight to the point. Just pick it mark it and explain it. I personally had recommended many users to try this since its so easy to use and no one needs any training or going through the help content it all. It was just like how I used to scribble using my pencil in my notebook !!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front Sketch?

Lag/latency thats one thing I would like to say that needs to be improved specially when using it with videos. Apart from that I litreally liked the simple approach they used Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Front Sketch solving and how is that benefiting you?

I mainly work on concepts and many a times while our brain storming sessions It was a pain to draw and explain to our colleagues online, we were previously using paint/Microsoft whiteboard but it was a huge huge lag and it was never as simple as writing and explaining what I wanted to convey like how I used to using a pencil and a paper, but thanks to front sketch now I can easily draw and if I am referring to any video/pic of a component and want to explain what i want to modify in it I can simply draw my imaginantion over that photo and make the other person understand, this was a real pain but it has become lot better now and my meeting time is getting saved considerably.

What do you like best about Front Sketch?

I like that Front Sketch is very transparent. I can draw over any window, so if I get an idea of a design from another program, it can be done rather fast. They are like a digital tracing paper on the top of the original one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Front Sketch?

Front Sketch lacks a crucial feature of subfolders. In fact my projects are coming up to be complete mess and I struggle to find anything. Using sketches becomes a problem when working on different projects since there is no way of categorizing them for later reference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Front Sketch solving and how is that benefiting you?

Front Sketch is an excellent tool to create numerous visuals while staying within the application. I can overlay competitor’s websites, interface design of an application on top of the existing software, as well as refine ideas on top of the design process.
