From a technical perspective, Figma has greater capabilities, and once you start to explore all these features and how to connect Figma with other tools such as Storybook and Zeplin for documentation, it's a tightly coupled system with many different functionalities available which make it excellent, and I will definitely recommend Figma over other designing tools for organizations because the support it provides is extensive and highly technically feasible, making your job considerably easier.

The disadvantages of Figma compared to Adobe are the capabilities when searching for plugins; we often need to rely on external ones, and it takes time to read documentation because the prototyping protocol is not very clear.

The solution might not be affordable for teams of five or more people, making it somewhat expensive for small businesses.

In the free version, because we are designers, we don't always have access to the paid version. While the pricing is totally fine for paid workspaces, the free version needs better security locks so other users cannot duplicate content.
