Have been using trunk for a while now and it is filling a huge gap in the workflow for our teams. Also the addition of teams was A+ I would also like to commend the crew on releasing updates so fast.

Trunk is a great product built but an even greater team.

Pros:

Collaboration tool

Cons:

Early days of product

Tried it for an hour and really like it. I have 2 questions. 1. My trouble is our current workflow. We use box.com for file saving and unless I save a desktop version of the sketch file Trunk won't recognize my changes. Is using something box.com and trunk possible in the near future? 2. If we change our workflow and save desktop versions of sketch files, will everyone need to constantly download and upload their sketch files? Thanks in advance, I've been waiting for this software for quite some time.

@perazamichael Hey Michael. Thanks for your comments. 1/ We've had a few people ask for Box integration and are looking at this as part of our enterprise solution. Be interested to understand more details on your workflow. Would it be possible to connect on email to discuss? 2/ Regarding the Sketch files - we've built Trunk in a way that the files will sit locally and only sync with the cloud when needed. This is to ensure that everything is in sync with your team. We've done some things to optimise the upload/download of files, so hopefully it should be a pretty smooth process for your team. Thanks again!

@elliottrisby Sure thing, you can email me at michaelp at copiousinc dot com However, for the sake others who share the same workflow and want to see the answer: We use box sync and work off of files in our box folders. To avoid sketch conflicts we work off one "master" sketch file and save a duplicated version with our name appended (terrible, I know). Then these named sketch files have the art boards copied to the master sketch file. As a small team, putting the box.com integration behind enterprise will lock us out of that functionality. Downloading and uploading sketch files sounds more tedious than what we are currently doing. While in theory, I can get my team to start downloading and uploading sketch files often (not too keen on it atm), paying for yet another service is a hard sell for me to get approved. Thoughts?

Trunk is on its way to solving a massive industry challenge. Ultimately it will improve productivity and create greater efficiencies. A true tech breakthrough for the creative and design industry.

App looks great and is easy to use, works great within a large UX team environment. We've implemented Trunk seamlessly into our existing design process.

Pros:

Very fast integration with Sketch and awesome 'interactive 3D - UI viewer' to help quickly identify the location of design revisions.

Cons:

The only issue I've found was that I wasn't able to immediatly compare updates made to a very large .psd file.

Great idea I think. On the introduction video, at 0:16s, my UIkit freebie. I shared a few months ago on Sketchappresource.com and Behance. Just share if anyone else wanna try: https://www.behance.net/gallery/...

Do you have a self-hosted, on-premise version?
