Text-heavy Confluence pages slow you down
Dense documentation leaves teams guessing. PMs over-explain, devs miss details, and important decisions get buried. Misalignment doesn't just waste time and money, it wastes trust.
And the all-in-one design tools are too bloated to help.

PMs, engineers, and business leaders love Balsamiq
For over a decade, my favorite wireframing tool has been Balsamiq. It's easy to use and allows me to create wireframes really quickly. What's more important, these wireframes are intuitive and easy to understand— even for non-technical people.
I love Balsamiq because of the details. It focuses on one thing and doing it well. Really gets powerful once you learn the little shorthands. Also a great independent team building with love.
Balsamiq has proven to be a perfect tool for visualizing and delivering my ideas to the technical team. It is also indispensable when working on new software features!
I like to use Balsamiq as it's so easy to switch directions even if you're quite far into the designs. All the color and fluff can wait until we move to Figma, but for now, simplicity is my friend.
If I did something in Photoshop, clients would want to move pixels. Meanwhile, what they needed to focus on was "What, vaguely, will be the result?" I ended up solving this by using Balsamiq for lo-fi mockups.
In the land of wireframing Balsamiq is king. It's 2024, and wireframing remains one of the cheapest and most effective methods to surface ideas quickly.
FAQs
Do I need design experience to use Balsamiq for Confluence?
Nope! Balsamiq is built for busy product folks, not designers. Product managers, engineers, founders, and analysts can all create clear, effective wireframes without any design expertise.
Is Balsamiq a good fit for documentation and knowledge sharing?
Absolutely. Balsamiq helps teams visually communicate ideas inside Confluence, making documentation clearer, reducing misunderstandings, and speeding up collaboration.
Can I use Balsamiq within my existing Confluence workflow?
Yes! Embed wireframes directly in your Confluence pages to make specs, documentation, and team discussions more visual and actionable.
Can Balsamiq be used for more than just new feature design?
Definitely! Teams use Balsamiq for visualizing MVPs, process documentation, product decision-making, stakeholder alignment, training materials, and more. Our rule of thumb: if it needs clarity, wireframe it.
How is Balsamiq different from design tools like Figma, Whimsical, or Miro?
Balsamiq is for fast, low-fidelity wireframing, not high-fidelity design or endless brainstorming. Figma is for polished UI, Whimsical is for flowcharts, and Miro is a blank canvas. They all have their place, but for lean teams, they can be bloated and distracting. Balsamiq keeps you focused so you can stop overthinking and start shipping.
I have a designer. Will they be mad if I use Balsamiq?
Nope, they'll thank you. Designers love when teams bring clearer requirements and better-structured feedback. Instead of guessing, they can focus on refining ideas, not interpreting them.
