Abstract - Design collaboration without the chaos

OMG finally a Git-like versioning control tool for collaborating design. Just AWESOMIC!! 😱🚀🚀🚀

Hey @jbrewer - love abstract, we've adopted it for most of our projects now. A friend from another agency has expressed some mild concerns about file security, particularly around how the source files don't exist locally (in a readily usable .sketch file format, at least). Of course we do daily backups anyway just in case, but it would be amazing to just be able to rely on Abstract fully to render additional manual backups obsolete. Any plans in the roadmap to account for this?

Love the idea! Pros: Clean layout, easy to use Cons: None so far!

My startup uses abstract and we have nothing but good things to say about them. At first we had issues with latency because we clumped our entire application design into one project. I reached out to support and they gave us detailed steps on how to break up our application design into different projects to increase speed. Support also showed us how to link libraries to projects(super easy) so that every new project has access to the same symbols. Keep up the good work abstract team!!!!!!

This is a new way to manage design work. I really appreciate their app pretty new and pretty awesome. Recommended for small and medium and larger design teams who are working with product apps.

Pros:

Easy to manage product design projects based on Git technology

Cons:

They need to grow faster.

Support Adobe files.

We are having a 8 person team on abstract working on big projects, and lately the abstract performance is so bad, I really don't know what to do but rant everywhere. We are working on very time sensitive project but syncing, opening file, even deleting branch is too slow that I we couldn't continue the work for day!!!!!! I love the idea of abstract, and I think this is the only right way to collaborate in a UI design team, but till you guys fix your issues, I can't recommend you guys to anyone, only can hold our pain of not being able to completely get rid of abstract while having to pay for it....

Unreliable! Our teams waste about 30% of time waiting for merges, or redoing work that was "saved" via the application. Not to mention that brand-new Macs have a performance/overheating issue. The worst of the worst!!
