Design feedback deserves more than scattered screenshots. Commentful gives me a single tool to gather reactions, debate trade-offs, and document approvals—all while keeping the master Figma file untouched. It’s lightweight enough for scrappy teams but structured enough for enterprise sign-offs.
One link, one source of truth
Share a Commentful link and everyone sees the same curated set of frames. They can comment in context, mention teammates, and attach supporting documents. No guessing which artboard someone is referring to.
Built-in accountability
Every piece of feedback gets a status, owner, and due date. Designers, PMs, and stakeholders can see what’s done and what’s outstanding. The transparency keeps projects moving even when you’re juggling multiple launches.
Putting it into practice
- Select the relevant Figma frames and publish them through Commentful.
- Invite reviewers, set permissions, and guide them toward what kind of feedback you need.
- Work through the board, resolving each card before archiving the project for reference.
Good design feedback tools reduce anxiety. Commentful does that by combining secure sharing with a clear, trackable workflow.
Measure review health
Commentful’s activity log shows how long feedback sits idle, which teams engage quickly, and where bottlenecks occur. Use that data to refine your process—maybe legal gets earlier previews or leadership only weighs in once the structure is locked. Over time, you’ll see fewer late-breaking surprises.
Pro tips
- Create templates for different review types (concept, copy polish, accessibility) so each board launches with presets.
- Encourage stakeholders to mark their own items as resolved once they’re satisfied; it gives them ownership and shortens loops.
- Pair Commentful with project trackers like Linear or Jira by linking card URLs so engineering can jump straight to the relevant feedback.
Treat Commentful as the heartbeat of your review process and you’ll spend less time chasing answers and more time improving the product.
