Creatopy is an AI-driven creative automation platform helping businesses create, automate & scale up their ad production and delivery.
The hospitality of their customer service team is un-comparable. For having such a high standard product they have made it easily accessible with their pricing.
The only issue I've had with Bannersnack is the size of the ads. Sometimes, they are too large to use on certain display sites, which can slow down speed to market and is frustrating.

Creates hundreds of banners flawlessly
Comments: Helps me create hundreds of banners flawlessly in few hours. Saves me time, makes me more money by working smart, not hard.
Pros:
I got tired of using Photoshop as my workload increased more and more. I got tired of designing from scratch all the time. I got tired of straining my brain just to come up with design concepts, and a couple of other struggles that comes with traditional design tools. I went in search for a better tool to save me from the pains I go through everyday, and Bannarsnack was my choice. Ever since I started using it I only wished I found it earlier, all thanks to the thousands of templates you can use to create banners in few minutes. I recommend it for anyone handling bulk designs for clients.
Cons:
Price is a bit steep, nothing more for now.

An efficient, easy way to create banner ads! But there's room for growth.
Comments: Very positive. Whenever an issue comes up like image compression or exporting issues, their team is quick to find a solution and keep me informed on the process. As an agency, we've been able to greatly improve our workflow speeds.
Pros:
Greatly increases work efficiency and makes the process of animating display ads easy and intuitive.
Cons:
Doesn't yet offer more complex animations or allow extremely heavy customization to their current animations. Also - they banner set designer is a great idea, but just doesn't work in most cases. Only in the most simple of ads does it work well.

Hello Nick, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this helpful review. We really appreciate you and your agency and we wanted you to know that we're constantly working on improving the platform. It would be really helpful for us if you could contact us on our live chat and tell us more about the issues you had with the Generator. Thanks again and please let us know what we can do for you in the future. The Bannersnack Team
Overall a smart service but the lack of many tools makes it quite hard to work with.
Comments: Fast productions of moving banners.
Pros:
Fast and easy way of creating templated products. It's also easy to export and download the created material. I have also a very good experience of the support service.
Cons:
If you have worked with Adobe's products you really miss a lot of features. For example I would like better tolls when editing moving banners. The only tool you have to work with is in and out of a transition. I would need regular keyframes.

Create Stunning and Beautiful Animated Designs
Comments: My overall experience with Bannersnack is really nice, because I experiment with various colors and then push my designs to the next level. I have found this drag and drop editor so easy for me. Because If I think as a Graphic Designer, I save my lot of time using Bannersnack. So in short, I am really happy and satisfied with Bannersnack.
Pros:
Bannersnack is really an awesome platform that allows you to design beautiful animated designs in minutes. You can start designing from beginning or even you can select a layout from the gallery. Then you can add background, even you can animate your shapes and text.
Cons:
The interface of Bannersnack is really easy to understand and use, even all tool, features and options are outstanding. I never faced any issues or cons in this platform, for me this is best.

The best banner design tool for agencies
Comments: I have been using Bannersnack for over a year and I still use it every day. Best design tool ever
Pros:
The template creation, I think is one of the most easy digital platforms
Cons:
Probably the few templates avalible, they are limited and sometimes with a lack of imagination

Hello to you Ivan, Thank you for your honest feedback, we do appreciate it. We are really happy to learn that you like our template creation tool and you find it easy to use. Thus far we have a collection of over 4000 animated templates in our editor for ad sizes you can use on Google Ads, IAB, Adroll, Facebook, Instagram and many other advertising platforms. Just recently we added 700 new templates ready to use for printed material so make sure to check them out, they are really stunning. Where we are a bit behind is making all templates available in the generator, so I understand if you the selection there somewhat scarce. But no worries our design team is working on adding more and more with every release.
Great for basic edits and creating graphics
Comments: Been using it for years - easy to use and runs light in the browser. Have since started a picmonkey subscription to as it offers slightly more advanaced editing options as well as huge library of graphics
Pros:
Easy inuitive user interface - system is very quick and easy to pick up. Provides a variety of format to export in Files are organised with minimal effort, and can search by file name etc
Cons:
Some strange basic things missing - unable to justify text, for example. Would be great to have more vectors and cliparts etc available to use

Get Things Moving Fast with Bannersnack!
Pros:
I love the way that we can colab with our team members. The software has lots of premade templates that help to jumpstart the design process.
Cons:
Honestly, nothing as of yet. We've been using it for a good bit of time already.

Best Value!
Comments: We've been using the Bannersnack product for a few years now. We've grown with them. The software allows us to do all our creative digital ad creation from one central location...Making it quick and easy.
Pros:
The software offers many great features. However, the fact that you can create banner sets (multiple banner ad size) with one click is by far one of the great features.
Cons:
Editing of individual creative(s) after you have made a banner set is frustrating.
Bannersnack- so simple even I can do it
Comments: Bannersnack is my go to when I need to put together a quick logo or banner. It's easy and honestly a great tool to have in a pinch
Pros:
So, sometimes in my industry we need banners and graphics fast and I don't always have the ability to grab a designer. This is something to where I can build simple banners and resize things without having to get in the queue for other projects. Little to no design experience needed
Cons:
A few tricky interface things and frustrations with resizing, but as all things do, it has a slight learning curve.

So Easy!
Pros:
As a graphic designer, I love how EASY it is to make banners, banner sets, and especially HTML5 banners, which were a huge pain to make before. Everything is clearly saved and the preset templates are more than helpful and timesaving. I just love it all-around!
Cons:
You can't save templates (that I know of) - so you just have to copy individual ads from sets rather than copy a set.

Best Banner Generator Out There For The Price
Comments: Overall I'm very happy with what Bannersnack has helped me achieve with my line of work. We were able to breathe new life into an advertising product that had grown somewhat stale of late and with recent software changes in our advertising networks, we'll be relying even more heavily on this service. The other players in the market that offer this kind of service are either unintuitive, unimaginitive or unbecoming of the kind of image we would want to portray with online advertising. We've actually saved money overall since we'd previously been paying designers to make a smaller set of ads on our behalf and those were simply static images. I recommend this service to anyone I meet that's looking for this kind of thing as it was recommended to me by a friend. Sure, there's always something that could be better, a bug fixed here and there, but I think for the money, this is the best solution out there right now.
Pros:
The Banner Generator! I work in online advertising and this tool has been very helpful in getting a number of ads made in all sizes for the networks we use quickly and efficiently. We used to rely on designers doing a bunch of work by hand and have to wait days or even weeks for mediocre results. Now I can make the ads myself in less than a day and the animation has made our clients much more appreciative. We can dial in the layouts we like the most, then it's a simple matter to duplicate banner sets and make revisions to get unique banners for each client. Bannersnack has saved us a ton of time and gave our service a fresh new look. Though we use HTML5 for the actual advertising, I like that I can send GIFs as example files to my clients. I'm excited to see what the Branded share links look like, since right now we're sending GIFs as previews. I'd love to see a bulk download feature for GIFs, but I can understand why this might be a bit daunting in terms of resource usage.
Cons:
Though the process of creating images using the generator is getting better, there are still a few bugs that need sorting. There are definitely some quirks and the occasional service outage where a banner set might take a long time to save or you can't export for a bit, but this is definitely the exception and not the rule. I can only recall one particularly bad day where the service wasn't working for a few hours, but I didn't end up losing any work, just time. Sometimes text elements don't get updated when you copy banner sets. The workaround is you have to remove the image from the set, then add it back in to get it to update correctly. Sometimes drop shadows look incongruous across all image sizes and you need to update the global values if you've been resizing or moving elements within individual ads. I've gotten used to these slight irritations and I'm sure they'll be fixed over time, but I'm happy overall with what I can achieve with the service. I'd love more options to change the text, like a stroke which helps text stand out against wider ranges of colors for background images. The 'Hit' animation template is a bit buggy and doesn't always play nice when you have a lot of elements, so I typically just opt for a different template that's more consistent. I'd love to see more templates, both for layout and animation. There was a recent rate hike for adding multiple users which our team will be needing soon, which is a bummer, but comes with the territory I reckon.
Bannersnack / Leading Technology
Comments: Bannersnack has created technology to create outputs the world has never seen before. They are the best company in their industry. Highly recommended. Love it!
Pros:
1) Easy to code with a Drag and Drop interface; Bannersnack has the sophistication of creating top quality products with the simplicity of constructing designs for beginner and expert level integration. It gives the user the ability to create a spectacular result. 2) The hospitality of their customer service team is un-comparable 3) For having such a high standard product they have made it easily accessible with their pricing.
Cons:
1) On hover use to be a formal feature of Bannersnack. It was simple to create objects with on hover, however, if the user has knowledge of coding; it is still simple. 2) Sometimes if you run into a problem the user has to come up with a solution for themselves. 3) The given features always work but only under certain circumstances.

Hello Sean, We'd like to let you know how much we appreciate your amazing review of Bannersnack! We agree that creating designs using our platform is a piece of cake once you've familiarized yourself with all of its features and functionality perks. As for our support team, they are indeed the best when it comes to knowledge of the platform and hospitality as they take full interest in all of our user's issues treating each thread in the best possible way.

If you need further details related to this or any other matter, you can always contact our colleagues from support and they will gladly help you out!
Extremely helpful and time-saving
Comments: It's sped up a lot of processes and every time we've had an issue, their online chat system has been very helpful.
Pros:
The interface for building banners and banner sets is extremely easy to use, easy to organize between coworkers and speeds up the process for simple display ads and animated social media posts. The animations they've added in the past couple of months makes it a great alternative to those unfamiliar with the complexity of After Effects but still interested in animated their content.
Cons:
Every once in a while, the site goes down. I have experienced a problem in the past where I would be editing a banner and my screen would go blank. All I could do was refresh and lose whatever changes I had just made. I've also experienced bugs with their exporting options, sometimes you need to export each banner in a set individually because the .zip folder download would fail

good for graphic designing
Comments: I use the tool to design marketing material for my business and to display ads on ad networks since it is so easy. It has helped to stay organized since it allows teamwork
Pros:
Creatopy has good templates to start with while creating marketing materials for business branding, support is paramount, I like the new feature that enables me to delete the background from the image so it can offer uniform element with the advert goal and theme color
Cons:
Sometimes downloading PDF files will fail especially when you are downloading compressed files, you have to download each file separate which might be time consuming

Good Banner Maker
Pros:
Interface is intimidating at first, but once you use it, it's quite easy... Good Templates for various banner styles...The graphics you create with this software is easily editable, and the software is smooth and not clunky with the tools and interface... Great customer support, problems with the software and it's functionality are solved by the support team on the site. A good way to make banners and posters for your sites and graphics.
Cons:
I can't really think of any CONS, except the Bannersnack software should have better advertising so that more people would be aware of the design potential for this software.

Great way to scale your graphics at low cost
Comments: Before BannerSnack, there was no feasible way for me to create animated graphic for advertising with my organization — the process simply took much too long. With BannerSnack, I'm now able to create 5-10 animated graphics weekly, and can do so in as little as 5 hours a week.
Pros:
Bannersnack streamlines the animation process, and is a perfect fit for organizations looking to scale their capabilities with animation or HTML ads. I can quickly create one animation using preset templates, make any customizations I need to make, and have those changes reflect in a nearly infinite number of specific dimensions or formats almost instantly. Creating digital advertising sponsorship packages is a breeze, even when sending to multiple outlets with different requirements, formats, dimensions, and specifications.
Cons:
The tools present to create the graphics themselves are rather limited — even when comparing to a similar browser-based graphics tool like Canva.

Comments: Excellent! Has greatly improved our team workflow and we are producing some beautiful content (that takes little to no time to create!).
Pros:
Super easy system to learn and use. Our team need a solution to quickly build motion graphics for social media, and this is an excellent platform for that. We are also able to easily share templates across our team and use brand colors/fonts.
Cons:
Bannersnack has some pre-loaded "actions" that you can add to text/photo to create motion. There's only a few that we like to use (some are just too over the top). Would be nice for bannersnack to add some more options.

Great for non-graphics experts
Comments: Created banners quickly and easily. Saved time and money.
Pros:
For those of us that know enough about graphics design to be dangerous, Bannersnack is a wonderful tool. It makes banners, animated and static, easy to create. Animated banners used to be a chore to create but now it is simple and they look great.
Cons:
Nothing glaring comes to mind. They have made numerous improvements to the system to clear up any of the gripes I did have.
