6. Exploring alternate versions in Balsamiq

When creating wireframes, it’s important to keep our options open and not limit the design to just one idea. This is especially true during the ideation phase: more ideas mean more opportunities you’ll be able to identify and, then, evaluate before choosing the most promising one.

In this video, you’ll discover a powerful Balsamiq Cloud feature called Alternates: it allows you to create variations on a single wireframe design without adding more wireframes to your project.

Creating alternates can be useful when exploring concepts in the early design phase. You then can go and show multiple versions to stakeholders or potential customers and see what resonates most with them.
