It is a properly good tool that was praised by the media and user community over time.
DesignerVista can be installed on a PC powered by a 32 or 64-bit edition of Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP. For the application to run, said PC must have at least 1GB of RAM memory (2GB recommended) and at least 200MB of free disk space. Please note that you’re installing a trial version that comes with several limitations: free to use for 20 days, the Save and Print functions are disabled, a watermark is put on the output.
When you launch DesignerVista, you will be presented with a “Select a GUI Mockup Application” that invites you to select an application – they are nicely grouped into the following categories:

The GUI mockup you’re working on is presented front and center on the interface. At the top there’s the aforementioned ribbon, on the sides there are panels you can use to customize your project. Overall, it is a fairly easy to figure out interface that you will quickly get accustomed to.
