Over a year ago, our design team was just two people: Christian<\/a> and I, and while we worked as primary design owners for specific products, we were always collaborating on feature designs across these products. Our typical design process started with problem definition <\/span>[Google Docs and Confluence]<\/span><\/i> and then research + ideation <\/span>[Zoom, Sheets, and Balsamiq]<\/span><\/i>\u00a0before we proceed to visual and experience design <\/span>[Sketch and Invision]<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

As the design team grew to five members, we discovered that some approaches were no longer scalable. We needed a more collaborative tool to hand-off projects as well as for prototyping.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hence, we made the decision to switch from Sketch to Figma<\/a>. Figma checked all of our requirements on paper, but at the same time, it presented new challenges in communicating processes and navigating files created over time.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n
