Simply the best purpose-build wire framing and design tool. Ability to create pixel-perfect, reusable, assets is terrific.

Working on sketch is awesome. My transition from Adobe XD to Sketch was a good learning process as it was a new tool and with the same kind of work...

What do you like best about Sketch?

Simple UI and easy to learn, best of all, it's affordable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sketch?

Every object is in its own layer and sometimes it can get to too may layers when working on a complicated design project. It gets hard to select multiple layers at once and difficult to move them around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sketch:

Definitely a good on software besides Adobe Creative Suite. Works well with Invision. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Mainly used to do wireframe and UI for app and website. It makes sketching UI much faster than using AI or PS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sketch?

I like the symbol library and the ease of duplication of elements throughout a design. I helps keep things consistent with less effort since you don't have to create as many new elements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sketch?

I wish they would incorporate more keyboard shortcuts like those found in Photoshop. I know there are some workarounds for this, but I don't really see the point in making them different in the first place. Most users are still going to use both programs, so I say do them a solid and keep things similar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sketch:

Allow some time for learning if you're coming over from Photoshop, but it's definitely a worthwhile tool to have in your design arsenal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I can see this increasing my design efficiency over time and it helps me keep designs more consistent more easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sketch?

I like how simple it is to use and produce digital designs, and there are plug-ins for everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sketch?

I don't like that it's hard to collaborate on this tool. File sharing gets messy because there is no tool to sync changes to designs when you're working together on the same project with other designers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sketch:

It's a great tool for UX designers! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I design apps and sites with Sketch, and love that the artboards are geared towards designing for different screen sizes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sketch?

The thing I like best about Sketch is that it is super simple to pick up. I was able to teach myself how to use the program. It's very slick and easy to use. It's perfect for using internally to showcase to designs to co-workers, as well as across companies to other stakeholders. I also love how everything is vector! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sketch?

I think the only downside to Sketch is that it's fairly new. There are still bugs to work out. Also, it is not a replacement program, so this means that Photoshop and other Adobe programs will still be around. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it will be a while before Sketch is a "one-stop-shop" program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sketch gave me the ability to create designs and send them over to clients for approval. This was great because clients were able to really understand how the user would interact with their site and get a glimpse into exactly what the design will look like when it goes live. If the client requests changes, it's super easy and fast to jump back into Sketch and make the necessary updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sketch?

I like that craft and InVision seamlessly combine with Invision. The artboards are well-thought out to include most everything. Symbols has been HUGE. Probably my favorite feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sketch?

The type tool is probably my biggest gripe. The scaling isn't as easy as I'd like it to be (compared to Adobe). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sketch:

If you're familiar with Adobe products, there's a small learning curve but in the end, very easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

How to quickly design a website without having to use to Ai. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sketch?

Sketch makes it easier for non-designers to design beautiful interfaces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sketch?

There's not really anything I dislike about this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We use Sketch to build wireframes for our clients projects. Using Sketch has allowed non-designers to work on wires without the knowledge of Adobe products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sketch?

I've used sketch from the beginning and the product still amazes with every update that comes out. The CSS attributes feature is amazing and I use it daily with my dev team when they need colors and gradients from my designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sketch?

There are some bugs with each release but they tend to get fixed pretty quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

In my early days of Web Design I was mainly using Adobe products and they can tend to be bulky and half of the tools I never even used. With sketch I can quickly get my mockups, wireframes, and web designs out quickly and precisely. The shortcuts are so easy to remember and are just stupid simple.

What do you like best about Sketch?

Sketch has a consistent, and productive UI for product mockups and other vector sketches. It feels familiar to Illustrator users, but faster due to better selection mechanics. It also has a simple and efficient way of working with artboards and reusable components, and exporting mockups to other tools is a breeze. The artboards are also a great way to get finished assets out in various sizes and pixel densities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sketch?

A few features, like alignment and bezier editing are less efficient than Illustrator (so we tend to do detailed logo and branding work in Illustrator still). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sketch:

Logo and detailed vector art Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sketch has streamlined product design for us. It has increased our ability to iterate over product design, and get closer to pixel-perfect designs. It also plays well with tools like InVision, which makes it possible to test out better UX flows and alternatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
