UXPressia<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nLike the tools above, UXPressia<\/a> offers the ability to create customer personas, user journeys, and integrate the two to build the best possible customer experience. They offer a free plan, a $16 starter plan, a $36 pro plan, and custom pricing for enterprise organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThey have also built the UXPressia Academy. It teaches beginners the basics of journey management, research, and planning, making them a great partner for small teams who may have less time for one-on-one training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adobe XD<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\nIf, like many agencies, you\u2019ve decided it\u2019s more cost-friendly to purchase all the Adobe creative cloud apps than to pick and choose what you need, then you already have access to Adobe XD<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\nFor teams that aren\u2019t all-in on Adobe, purchasing XD by itself will only run you $10 per month.
