Why choose Moqups over Balsamiq?

1 Switch to a modern tool

Both apps have been around for over ten years. Since then, Balsamiq has continued to offer low-fidelity wireframing with their signature, stripped-down aesthetic. At the same time, Moqups has added professional diagramming, prototyping, and whiteboarding tools ‐ along with a clean UI and flexible wireframing experience.

2 Consolidate your workflow

Moqups knows that complex projects require more than just wireframes. A multi-disciplinary workflow often includes brainstorming, strategizing, planning, and diagramming. With Moqups, cross-functional teams don’t have to stop with wireframes. They can create all the documentation needed to deliver successful projects.

3 Create a single source of truth

With Moqups, professional and presentation-ready wireframes live alongside mockups, flowcharts, mind maps, sitemaps, org charts, timelines, ERD and network diagrams, and so much more. From project start to finish, your team won’t have to switch apps, or break their creative context.


Go from wireframes to dev-ready projects with one app and subscription.

With Moqups you can have and do more!

Go from lo-fi to hi-fi to create professional work that’s ready for both investor and stakeholder presentations.
