Where each one falls short

Document360

  • Advanced AI features are usage-metered and may require additional purchases.
  • Smaller teams may find the enterprise-oriented feature set more complex than needed.

Sketch

  • macOS-only for editing, blocking Windows and Linux users from accessing design features
  • Real-time collaboration feels less seamless than Figma with occasional sync delays
  • Limited built-in image editing capabilities, requiring external software for bitmap work
  • Subscription required for cloud features and collaboration, losing access if subscription lapses
