Sketch+Zeplin+Abstract+Miro —> Figma+Miro

 

A quick note how using Figma can refine your process and bring all the distributed work from different software to one single source of truth. Below are some examples from personal experience.

Shorter design process

Ideate in Miro → Design in Sketch → Version control with Abstract → Handoff with Zeplin → Document in Miro

Ideate in Miro/Figma → Design in Figma → Version control with Figma → Handoff with Figma → Document in Figma

Quicker design reviews

😒 Before

Design in Sketch → Create branch in Abstract → Review on Abstract OR peer designers downloads Sketch file

Collaboration with Product Manager
