Editor's verdict

If you can only try one this quarter, make it Quip.

The top three are within four points of each other on the rubric — meaning the right choice depends more on your use case than on the absolute score. Use the table or the side-by-side compare to sanity-check.

Frequently asked

What people ask before they commit.

How do you rank these products?
Every product in the Design category is scored on a weighted rubric covering performance, value, build quality, support, and ecosystem strength. Scores are recalculated every 90 days as new versions ship and new data lands.
Do affiliate links influence the rankings?
No. Rankings are produced by our editorial panel independent of any partnership. We disclose every affiliate relationship inline; the order on this page would be identical with affiliates removed.
When was this list last updated?
Last refresh: 2026-07-21. Major scoring updates happen quarterly; pricing and feature changes are refreshed weekly by our research team.
Where can I see the full spec comparison?
A side-by-side spec table for the top picks lives on the dedicated comparison page. We also publish a methodology page that explains the exact weights of every rubric dimension.
