Penpot Reviews

Penpot is one of the tool which is closer to figma in its functionality which has room to grow to become a much better collaboration tool in future.

I have not found a dark mode or light mode option for this tool. Other than this, nothing i could ask for more.

The tool being an open source was a big yes for us. Penpot is free to us for the most part without any restrictions and strange pricing plans like the other tool. If done right, there will be days when it will not be compared.

The best Figma alternative for product design and development with robust capabilities to help developers.

It's is not a play and plug solution, even with the easy approach of the interface, there is a bit of a learning curve to use Penpot.

I was able to test and publish our new website redesign faster because I was able to show quality drafts to my managers.

My team has been able to create prototypes seamlesses across designers and engineers with the open source platform.

I dislike their help articles when I'm trying to resolve an issue

Penpot has allowed my team to perform deployments from anywhere with the self-hosted deployments

I like the special thing about this app is that it is free and anyone can use it easily.

It runs smoothly on Chrome but sometimes it's lag in firefox.

It's just Wow. Just Go for it.

You no longer need to spend any money on your design and it also provides an open file on which you can work online with your team.

Open source tool, so I never have to worry about the company gettting acquired or shutting down

Not as fast and comprehensive as Figma as of now but they'll definitely improve

A great tool to create design app and website UI and UX

Penpot really impressed me. And the mindset of open source! Would love to see more projects like this, and now that Figma has been acquired by Adobe, I will continue to use and advocate Penpot to others. Goodbye, Adobe and all of your stuff.

There are few improvements like No automatic arrangement.

There is no light/dark mode switch.Rightnow,the community network is small but it will grow fast.I have no doubts.

To any aspiring user experience designer searching for a cost-effective and practical solution for their products, I would wholeheartedly recommend this software. It will, in my opinion, rank among the best tools for UX designers.

Has all the basics you would expect from a UX tool: artboards, components, interactions, and more!

And it allows collaboration and self-hosting!

As of the time of writing this review, it's still early days: Penpot is still in Beta and thus it's a bit rough around the edges. However, it's still stable enough to be used in production.

You're not tied to a subscription or to a company that might be bought off by some large soulless conglomerate. If things go sour, you can always just self-host.

It is quite capable for a free app and gets a lot of updates and it is easy to learn

It looks sometimes a little uncomplete as a software.

It is easy to use on the go when one does not have own computer at hand as it runs in the browser

Easy to open an account. Has a spanish version! The panel is intutive, has a lot of pre built themes to start. I can invite some people of my team to collaborate in the project

Yet some themes are not fully translated and it's quite a mess.

We are prototyping and wireframing quickly, its helpful to define front design tasks

Lo mejor de Penpot es que es un proyecto de código abierto algo que el proyecto cresca y evoluciones rapidamente, así como ha crecido la comunidad de Blender, estoy seguro Penpot sera su homonimo en el area de Diseño

El software es muy reciente y aun le faltan caracteristicas por desarrollar, pero para ser una versión prematura ya esta casi a la par en cuanto herramientas de diseño, solo le falta mejorar sus opciones de prototipado

Disponer de una herramientas que permita trabajar tanto individual o en equipo cualquier proyecto de Diseño, manteniendo un excelente entorno colaborativo sin restrinciones y completamente gratis, lo cual es ideal para aquellos con poco presupuesto
