Collaborative editing
Balsamiq Cloud is optimized for collaborative work. This document outlines the different ways to interact with your team, while editing a project.
Note: The following features require Edit permissions, check out People and Permissions for more details.
Collaborating in real-time
Balsamiq Cloud supports real-time collaboration between users. Once two or more users join the same project, every change is reflected in real-time for everyone. The toolbar displays the avatar of users who have joined the project, and the permission level they have.
The navigator panel indicates which wireframes your co-workers are working on by displaying their profile picture there.
Opening the same wireframe displays your co-worker's edits in real-time.
Commenting
Besides real-time collaboration, Balsamiq Cloud offers many other ways to get feedback on your designs. To learn more about it, check out Sharing and Reviewing.
Among those, the Comments Panel is a useful option that doesn't require edit permissions.
A red dot indicates that a Comment is unread. Comments can be marked as read and unread by clicking the blue/grey dot. You can add Callout markers to indicate specific elements in the wireframe where the comments applies or add a link to an alternate version. You can even include @-mentions in your comments if needed.
