I have been looking for a good product for creating mockups for a long time. I tried a few expensive and cumbersome tools but gave up. Then someone sent me a link to Balsamiq’s Mockups product. It is based on Adobe AIR and provides an easy, intuitive way to create wireframes on your desktop. The installation was smooth and in a few minutes I was up and running.

Whether you are an entrepreneur or you work for a large corporation, if you work with new applications, products or websites then a tool like Mockups is essential. I prefer visual tools to communicate with my team and especially with those who are not easily reached by phone.  Think about communication with clients during the early phases of any project and the mockup approach is a life-saver. Since I started using Mockups last week, I have already created a few rich wireframes and used it to get great feedback. The thing that I like is that most of the commonly needed components are included – all you have to do is to drag and drop. There are some iPhone user interface components as well. Mokcups has good image editing tools built in so you can import an image file and work on them within the application. I will write another review after a month or so. Here’s a video to get you introduced to this awesome product!

Disclosure: I received a copy of the software gratis in exchange of writing a review.
