Are Figma and XD finally getting Sketch out of the picture in UI design?

    Huh? People don't need a paying account for access to your Invision projects. They can create a free account and be invited to your project for free. Everyone in our department has read only rights and can inspect my team's designs for handoff and comments without paying for Invision. We only have one paying account and two designers have access to it while the rest of the company has unlimited access to see it all.

      That's odd. Are they actually part of the team or just viewing projects through sharing links? Can they leave comments and view the full directory?

      Maybe Invision changed it since, but we even spent a while chatting with their sales team and there was no way to get the price down, so I don't think we were missing something.

        Not really odd at all. That's how INV works. We don't share links unless for some reason someone outside of our teams needs access to see any screens or for user testing.

        They just have to create a free personal account with our company email and you can invite them to the project for read status, comments, exporting assets, and using inspect. I'm sure there might be "some benefits" to buying their team plans. But I don't see anything beneficial beyond how we use it currently that would add to our workflow. A sales rep tried to engage me in upgrading to it, but it wasn't worth the discussion and I turned him down. If I was forced to upgrade I would cancel our subscription and use zeplin. INV is buggy as hell and slow sometimes.

        We're on the professional plan - https://projects.invisionapp.com/d/main#/upgrade/plans?openedDueTo=plans%20page - with a design team of two people (down from 3 recently) under the same login that spans/supports 4 small dev teams. They all use it in correlation to any projects or features we need to hand off to the devs or for showcasing projects to stakeholders for simple prototypes.
