User testimonials

I wanted to give @penpotapp a try for my product team and self-host it, and I’m honestly amazed at what the team has done to make this platform accessible. Such a game changer for open source design. Viva, open source and Penpot!

Penpot is a fantastic and wonderful program👌 , and a solid alternative to paid programs with little support for Arab: Figma and Adobe XD. Main characteristics: - Compatible with RTL Arab language - Free and Open Source - Team Collaboration and projects sharing - PNG, SVG, JPEG exports.

Dear designer friends: leave Figma, Adobe XD, invisionApp, etc. I introduce you the future: Penpot. Open-source, free, you can self-host it so your own company has its own. Only advantages. You can import templates, third-party tools, etc. Perfect.
