It has greatly simplified the process of extracting CSS code from a Sketch design. ----- ### "A good tool, but missing the polish it a great tool" — 4.0/5 > **Sebastian** | *9 March 2022* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy developer handover, a single source of truth for design and frontend development in your projects, the push for new features like flows and the new labelling features (annotations, behaviours, etc) is nice. It seems that there are constant updates to the product, which means that new features and fixes are always on the way. > > **Cons**: The UX of the application leaves quite a lot to be desired in a lot of places, in particular the navigation system and searching are troublesome. For example there is no global search, you have to search under the correct project to find a screen and you might not always know where you put a certain screen. As a Mac and PC user, the PC application is practically useless in my opinion, there are so many quirky features, which I think take away from the usefulness of the product across different platforms. Components and styleguides don't always work as expected and in some instances some styles are not detected at all. Not a huge range of 3rd party plugins. > > I find Zeplin a good (but not great) tool for helping to manage your design/developer handover, but you absolutely need to have a strategy for using it. I would never recommend it to be used as a standalone tool, but for. It is positive that the company are working hard to come out with new features, however I think a lot of the existing stuff could be polished to give a better experience. ----- ### "Good, but better solutions out there" — 3.0/5 > **Sean** | *20 May 2024* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: Decent interface for mobile app design - clear and well laid out. I quite like the flows feature. > > **Cons**: Could definitely be better for collaboration across product/design teams - making it easier to give feedback in the app, offering better prototyping etc. should all be prioritised ----- ### "Best tool to link designers work with developers" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *26 May 2022* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Collaboration becomes so much easier with this tool. Developers can pick the styling, colors, icons, CSS everything from zeplin itself. Easily download all the assets in any format. > > **Cons**: There is nothing to dislike. Just nowadays, every tool is building up its own system with which you can share your work with developers. > > My total experience with zeplin was awesome. Sharing and collaboration was so easy with this tool. you can group variants and even the screens which make it very easy for the whole team on zeplin to publish and view the files as well. ----- ### "Perfect link between designer and developer" — 5.0/5 > **Ralica** | *8 February 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Zeplin has a good range of price options and a free version which is great for students. I like the intuitive UI which helps me quickly translate the element designs into code with just a click and a glance. Features like the version control are very useful as well as the comments feature. The dashboard tools and information are easily accessible and allow for a level of customization. > > **Cons**: It's sometimes difficult to select text in order to see font-size etc. It's an intermittent difficulty I have not managed to consistently reproduce. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/101600/zeplin?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/101600/zeplin) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
