2) Manage your design teams, projects and tasks perfectly

4) Write an effective PRD painlessly
Mockplus enables product managers to write a thorough PRD online. As a product manager, you can write product documents from scratch and add prototypes and other references for deeper explanation, as well as comment, discuss and share the PRD with your entire team effortlessly.
You also can view and manage auto-generated document change history, upload PDF and Word files from local drives if you prefer writing your PRDs offline.
5) Compare and manage design versions
Mockplus automatically generates design change history, and it can be viewed, tracked and managed perfectly.
Moreover, you can also compare any two versions of your design in four modes (including Split, Fade, Slide, and Difference) to see design differences quickly.
6) Gather and manage all design resources in one place
Mockplus gathers design resources online to help you manage them.
It allows you to upload, preview, group, download and share over 10 types of files, such as the Office files, HTML prototype packages, images, PDF/TXT files and Cloud document links, etc. for a better communication and collaboration.
Moreover, you can directly reference these resources to further explain your designs, and manage them within projects perfectly for a fast preview.
7) Create and manage your style guide library online
A unified style guide library keeps designs and branding consistent across projects and teams. Mockplus offers you a special design system managing tool (Mockplus DS, which is coming up soon) and a "Style Guide" mode to create, maintain, reuse and manage style guide libraries online.
8) Private cloud deployment and enterprise customization
