Cons
Con Expensive subscription model
$29 per user/mo ($350 pa) will soon rack up compared to a standalone product like Axure PRO ($450) which has a license that lasts years (they have given out free updates for the last 2 versions).
Con Steep learning curve
UXPin is one of the more complex prototyping tools. Combined with a lack of documentation, it can be discouraging for first time users.
Con Mac only
Sadly iOS centric.
