InVision’s platform, including Enterprise, Cloud, DSM, Craft, Specs, Studio, and Freehand, introduced major updates in the past year to make collaboration easier. These hundreds of updates were based on new research revealing how structured collaboration and communication are key components of design maturity, empowering increased speed to market, greater revenue, and higher valuation. As digital product design and development grows more complex, workflows become less linear and the number of collaborators grows to accommodate inputs from across the company. InVision’s updates and development in the past year and future plans are targeted towards supporting these trends, which will drive better business outcomes for our customers.
“Our product team’s speed and agility directly depends on the relationships between our designers, developers, and other stakeholders, and using InVision’s platform is key to enabling more efficient, creative design processes,” says Erica Cameron, Senior UX Designer at IBM. “Simply put, collaborative tools like InVision’s means we’re able to successfully execute our increasingly complex projects.”
