InVision: UX Prototyping Made Easy

This one is close to my heart. I built many an interactive prototype in my day and it usually consisted of opening Adobe Flash and then scheduling a considerable block of time for completion. To be clear, I am not a ?Flash Hater?. I know Adobe has tried to accommodate both designers and developers with its authoring environment, but it is still a deep platform?it?s not for the faint of heart. In terms of prototyping, I?ll be honest that I also think the level of complexity with Flash can be distracting from the ?design? problems one might be trying to solve, especially if you are a one-person design shop. It can be tough to be creative and technical, even though both skills are a contemporary requirement for the design inclined. Enter InVision: a SaaS prototyping tool. In a nutshell, InVision allows designers to string flat design templates together, in a flow, by using overlay ?hotspots? to show how the screens would all link together as if they were an interactive website or experience. Couple that with easy methods for sharing and collaborating on projects ? there?s a lot to like and multiple price points for entry.
