I used to try out all the latest and greatest apps.. not anymore we use a wacom and illustrator to build out wireframes.

Just wanted to update everyone...
I've been Sketching it up for about a month now and I'm not going back to Photoshop for this process any time soon. In fact, I'm probably going to wind up doing as much design work within Sketch that I can get away with.
The way it quickly aligns elements and it's multiple artboards are a real game changer, and the 2X export feature is great for taking retina into account. (I know PS has some of this stuff now, but I've been using CS6.)
It definitely feels like a faster and more nimble process than Photoshop.
- You can do 2x and 3x with photoshop automatically now too, in jpg and png on the fly.Frosty_spl

using sketch and omni right now.
Sketch for my wire frames... omni for my user flow map.
Sketch gets better the more you learn it. The exporting options are the best, you can save entire artboards or individual page elements... and Saving elements as reusable symbols goes a long way. The text styling is precious too.
I've used UXpin and illustrator for wireframing, but I think Sketch has won me over.

Thanks guys. Giving Sketch a go this afternoon. So far I'm enjoying all of the auto-snapping and alignment that makes throwing together a wireframe faster and more accurate.
Any wireframe kits or template that you recommend?

One thing I noticed... so many of these tools are web-based.
Does anyone use desktop software for this stuff anymore? I often do my best work when I turn off wifi and restrict myself from any distractions.
