Positiointikartta
Avainhavainnot
Figma created a new category by making design multiplayer — proving that product innovation and positioning innovation go hand in hand.
Sketch's Mac-native positioning went from advantage to limitation as the market shifted to browser-based tools.
Adobe XD illustrates the danger of 'ecosystem positioning' — being part of a suite isn't a standalone value proposition.
Erottuvuusindeksi
Kuinka uniikki kunkin yrityksen positiointi on suhteessa muihin
Owns 'collaborative design' positioning. Browser-based approach was initially controversial but became the category standard.
Mac-native positioning is both strength and limitation. Loyal base but losing ground to platform-agnostic competitors.
Leverages Adobe ecosystem integration. Positioning is defensive — keeping existing Adobe users rather than attracting new ones.

Suositukset
- →To compete with a category creator like Figma, you must either redefine the category or own a specific niche within it.
- →Platform dependency (Mac-only, ecosystem-locked) is increasingly a positioning liability, not an asset.
- →Avoid 'design, prototype, share' — this is the 2026 equivalent of table stakes. Lead with what's genuinely unique.
