Axure Erfahrungen

Sketch has a lot of limitations when it comes to prototyping. It really only allows for hotspot clicks to other screens you've created. However, Azure offers all of the prototyping capabilities Sketch doesn't minus the high-fidelity component.

I have just started using it, mind you I am very proficient in Sketch and all of the Adobe Creative Suites and I am definitely having a harder time grasping all of the ins and outs. I think once I get the hang of it, it will be my go to prototyping tool, but right now there is still a lot I am trying to figure out.

Axure makes interactive prototypes so easy, and has saved us millions of rounds of back-and-forth for people who "need to see the whole picture" or "feel the workflow end-to-end" before they can give feedback. There is not a substitute out there (everything else just creates hotspots and links).

The support team and training materials are also awesome. This tool makes me so happy and makes me look professional as a UX designer. I've used it for everything -- from workflows to high-fidelity user-facing usability tests.

Axure is not a traditional design tool to replace high-fidelity photoshop mockups or sketch vector assets. Its implementation of master widgets do some of the things a designer might need, but it is still not the same as what you get with a final-asset tool that traditional designers would use.

The mobile-responsive flow is also a little wonky sometimes. There are breakpoints you can design for but not fluid design states.

The designers in my team and I use it to create prototypes on the go that I can share with our users during my user researches. I like the way you can share them easily, there is no limit as to what you can create with them.

I would really like to have more tutorials as to how to create a specific experience. Even though the docu is good, there's just something missing there.

Axure is a love and hate relationship. It has a steep learning curve at the beginning, but once you are above the learning curve, it gets better and better. The functionality built in the software is awesome and you can literally make an exact experience as if you were coding. Use of libraries and other features can help you get started with basic set of tools and help you speed up your workflow.

The learning curve is steep and a challenge. You question yourself on why you are putting yourself through the learning when there are easier options available. Axure also allows you to do a lot more than other options, and if you are looking for the perfect prototype, you can spend hours figuring things out on axure needlessly.

I enjoy how intuitive it is to start creating right away. I use Axure to create wireframes and prototypes of applications. Additionally, when I find myself not understanding how the software works, I reference the online materials provided and am able to quickly resolve my issues. Axure provides wonderful documentation and tutorials for beginners, which really led to my understanding of the software and its capabilities. One of my favorite features include being able to comment on the pages and specific elements of the prototype. Another one would be being able to share a prototype through a link, especially being able to put a password on it so only people that I want to access it are able to. I highly recommend Axure for those looking to create mockups and prototypes.

Something that would really help me create prototypes faster would be providing more templates or drag and drop options. An example of something that would help my line of work is having drag and drop options to make prototypes for mobile apps. Some of the elements might be just having cell phone bodies, or popular cell phone UI buttons and widgets ( ie. back buttons on either iPhone or Android). Axure allows me to create nice prototypes from scratch but I would enjoy being able to use already made elements.

The tool comes with a lot of standard function which is used day to day basis for designer and developers for different application development practice. Learning curve is less compered to it's competitors. You can publish your design and allow user to review and share your feedback. You can also take the output in to your local folders and share with developers so that they can refer as the base of the design and development. The out of box copy feature allows a lot of style and content copying which saves a lot of time.

The default graphic set is not vast so you might have to rely on some external graphics. Many of the common graphic components are missing, I hope they add quickly

We use this software initially so that Client can experience the application.
It has all the fields like label text view, scrolling it is designed so that theme and basic idea of the application cleared to the client or developer.
We can create while application flow with the help of software.
If Client does not like the design it is very good to update and again show to the client.
It also gives facility to click and navigate to another screen or we can start from login to logout.
It is good for designing before actual start of the development.
It is simple drag and drop software.

Scrolling creates problem in beginning. Adding action also tricky this helps in navigation.
Change color and style of font is sometimes difficult to find.

Really simple took to create quick wireframes and share designs. Really like the quick share links to solicit feedback and gather comments.

It's a bit clunky. Compared to other design software, it feels a bit dated and there is a bit of innovation lacking. Does the job, but not cutting any edges here.

As a client, I love it, it shows me interface mock ups (wireframes) at a glance. It provides a realistic indication of what a user interface will look like on smartphones, tablets and in browser. It's light weight and quick to view.

The price is cost prohibitive for a freelancer, student or a casual user, whilst it's not an issue for enterprise it would be great if the company thought of computing grass roots.

Axure is a great tool for creating interactive prototypes. It allows for deep interactions and linking. Coupled with the ability to download and use widget libraries (drag and drop prebuilt components) it's possibly to quickly build engaging prototypes.

While axure is very powerful it does come with a learning curve to truly use all of it features.

Another con is that documentation on the advanced features is a little light. The forum is helpful but you will end up asking questions around more complicated processes while learning.

It's fairly simple, even for beginners, to create a great looking and full featured prototype of a project.

In the beginning, the UI didn't seem to be the most fluid or user-friendly but you quickly learn your way around.

I've tried many wireframing software and I can safely say that Axure RP has met all my needs. My favourite feature is how easy to use it is. All the mock up features are at your fingertips; shapes, colours, fonts, tags... you name it! All of the necessary wireframing necessities are easy to find and the drag and drop feature makes it hassle free to use.

If you're going to use this software as an html converter you won't be pleased. Exporting to html does not capture all features and presents several bugs. In my opinion, this tool is best used for mock ups and not necessarily as a html resource. This tool is best used to develop your UI/UX skills, rather than your front end web programming.

A very easy and simple tool to use. On the other hand, a powerful and realistic sites. It works on every computers.

If someone uses it, Axure wants high price for first time. But there is no issue. It does not deserve negative aspects.

I like the most about this software is prototyping. We can easily link the pages with each other. We can show the working demo to our clients.

As such there is no any feature I like least about this software. However, there should be morw tutorials about all the features of this software.

Axure lets you create prototypes with features I can’t get when prototyping with other tools. I can add forms and fully interactive experiences that are exported as a live website. It’s a lot more robust and feature-rich than InVision’s prototyping.

It’s got a bit of a learning curve and the user experience isn’t as elegant as other design software like Sketch

We use this tool in our human computer interaction design class and it helps us easily apply concepts learnt in class through a wide variety of toolkits and functionalities. Easy to use and understand quickly.

Some of the complex features that involve conditional expressions and data handling across pages can be simplified to make it easier to understand.

It does everything I want it to do, and lets me set things up so that I'm not repeating myself. Amazing how much better the design process is with this app.

I'm sure I've only scratched the surface of what this software can do. Often times I will set things up, then learn there's a much easier/more organized way to do it and end up starting all over.

One of the most cool part of the programm is that you can see the result (in my case the app) on your smatphone in real time, complete with all the features that the UX needs.

Some features are hidden and conditions often do not have a clear application.

The software allows you to create fantastic prototypes with variables and detailed interactions.
Amazing online sharing included.
Sketch plugin is now live.

The software requires much effort to create detailed prototypes, asking you to know a bit of coding logic to work with it.
It's also terrible for UI design.

The power and simplicity is overwhelming. I can use plugins to generate bootstrap based HTML for my projects, and easily share basic wireframes with my designer who makes them look great.

It's not easy for a novice to use - I am not a UX designer and it took me a while to figure it out. On the plus side, I was able to figure it out. An expert would probably have a very easy time with it.

Prototypes are functional and can help build a mock up to discuss with the user in a short time

some features do not work or my version is not the same as sample videos. but i do have the pro version so dont know why some features are not there and others don't work

-Lots of features to handle prototypes.
-User friendly.
-Can generates a HTML prototype.
-Great for UX's and UI's.

-Can take some time to master all the features.
-Could be really hard to prototype a mobile APP.
-If the prototype has a lot of elements the presentation could flicker.
