I think it's a pretty good product, and has grown fast (hence the valuation) but they really need to improve the core product. It's got too many bugs and feels like it's had zero effort in the past 1-2 years.

Sketch and Figma now have very similar clickthrough prototyping tools built in, and it's probably a question of time until they catch up.

Agree about the sketch and Figma click through stuff. One of the only things I see holding all of the competitors back from eating InVisions lunch right is that it's easier to share and collaborate (internally and externally) with InVision. Being able to login, comment, and share a URL seems to be a big part of it.

I would also say the inspect feature is a big plus, but that doesn't even play nicely with some sketch plugins right now.

You can share a link, comment and even collaborate in real time (with 2 cursors, each person working on a separate part of the file) with Figma.

Wow, I had no idea sketch added prototyping. Since I only use it when I'm not writing code I don't really keep up with the features but... wow! Thanks for the tip!
