Good for ux designers

What do you like best? I like that it's incredibly intuitive. I didn't need any training What do you dislike? It's not as "pretty". It's good for ux designers but not for ui or dual designers.

Shortcuts are not consistent with the one commonly used by other Mac apps. Double clicked is used a lot. The overall UX could use some refactoring. It is very paper driven while I ...

Omnigraffle is pretty good

What do you like best? Omnigraffle shines when putting together site maps or flow charts. There are a lot of great resources for templates and stencils that can help speed up your workflow. What do you dislike? Export, especially to PDF, feature could be improved. Also, I haven't found Omnigraffle to be as widely integrated, as other programs like Sketch or Photoshop.
