| Biggest strength | Exceptional design control and pixel-perfect visual customization without coding | Real-time collaboration is genuinely excellent — multiple designers can work simultaneously without conflicts or lag | Slackbot's contextual awareness of your team's conversations and files eliminates constant app-switching — it actually knows what you've been working on |
| Biggest drawback | Steep learning curve requiring 2-3 months of consistent practice for proficiency, despite 'no-code' positioning | Performance degrades noticeably on complex files with hundreds of artboards or heavy plugins | AI features like Slackbot and summarisation require paid plans, pricing out smaller teams who'd benefit most from automation |
