Zeplin Reviews & Product Details - Page 5

The best tools facilitate the transfer of files from designer to developer/engineer, making it easy to access any brief details and design code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not at the moment, I love the tools; they make a lot of my work easier and improve my work-life balance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zeplin is the best platform to convert the designs into final products. It provides smart features through which I can get the code (HTML / CSS) of a design and then code it on the website and have a product matching the design in an instance. It also allows to download the images used in the design. The images are scaled for different sizes of the screen. You can either use one or all, depending on your approach. The UI/UX is cool and funky which is refreshing to see. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, I've just come across one limitation of the platform. I use Zeplin on the broswer and there is no option to add a page / screen to a project through the website platform. You need to download the Desktop application to do so. But, they only have a Desktop application for Windows and MAC. There is no desktop application for Ubuntu. I don't think it's appropriate to not have an application for an entire segment of users. But this could also be because usually developers are the one using Ubuntu while designers use windows or MAC. So as long as the designers are good with it, developers don't have to worry about anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface is a breeze to use, especially when I want to see the attributes of a specific element, and even offers the ability to copy styles to CSS, a superpower in my view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, I don't find anything in zeplin that I don't like Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simplicity to see the details about specific elements from a design has been one of the most beneficial aspects of zeplin. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As the project manager, it is difficult to copy visual design to local machine for record keeping. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Plug-ins that allow developers to select the code type that best fits their project. The ability to customize plugins to meet the specific coding standards and styles of the Dev team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pages lose their interactivity. Though the components and style guide make up for it a bit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a Mobile developer I used to receive the designs from UX/UI a sketch file, where I had to use my skills to export assets, colors, etc, but with Zeplin everything is easier, more organized than other similar apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If the UX/UI doesn't export the assets correctly, sometimes it's impossible to export the assets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Since it's a design product, I would have expected the UI to be the best though their UI is good.

2. A bit costly for subscription Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use, you can share with other team members Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Maybe they need to find a way to make viewing easier Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Integration with Sketch (easy to integrate)

- Easy to use

- Not only great for working with developers, but also other members of the team to quickly review the design

- Gives very exact specifications for developers, especially the paddings and margins between elements

- Exports Sketch files to full resolution

- Fast load time even with complex/image-heavy designs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- It isn't the most intuitive when it comes to creating sections (there should be more options to create new sections without having to select screens)

- Would be great if there were more sharing options (i.e. be able to share the link with anyone without them having to be a member) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zeplin has an option of Styleguides where designers can mention elements which need to be unified across entire application.

We need not have any other tool to get the images required to create the design, all the assets can be uploaded along with the design only.

We can get all the description of all the UI elements at a single place.

Multiple projects can be created and each project can have multiple screens to be displayed.

Commenting feature is also available, which helps in better solving the issues.

Great tool to collaborate between developers and designers.

Projects can be present in Zeplin forever, so we can refer to any project in future as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No prototyping available i.e., we cannot show interactions between various frames as available in invision.

Cost of Zeplin increases with the number of collaborators addition.

Zeplin website is has usability issues, but when you switch to desktop you will feel the difference and get the better experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
