Excellent Product and Great Value

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: I've loved using CreateStudio and have every intention of being a loyal customer for years to come. I'd recommend it to anyone with a need for this type of software.

Pros:

The cost is reasonable, especially compared to some of the alternatives. It is very user-friendly and doesn't take long at all to learn your way around the software. The recent updates to the interface have been very well thought out. The updates show that they listen to what users need and are experiencing. The technical support team is usually very helpful and tries to address issues as quicky as possible. The admin team is super responsive and attends to things very quickly. The quality of the software and the deliverables one can create using it are fantastic. It is has enabled me to add a whole host of offerings to my clients and this has increased the scope of my business tremendously. I've used it to create everything from explainer videos to book launch reveal videos to an entire online training course! The possibilities are almost limitless.

Cons:

There were some technical glitches in the earlier days that caused some delays, but the team seems to have grown and developed their own skills so this no longer appears to happen. I've mentioned it already, but I'd love to see more attention given to spelling and correctness. A huge library of assets is wonderful, but it can make locating what you need unnecessarily difficult when the names of assets are incorrectly spelt and when the naming conventions used are inconsistent. This is literally my only pet peeve with this software. The misspellings occur everywhere (even the updates log), and this is something that should be ironed out. It is not only frustrating at times but results in making the software seem that little bit less professional - which it doesn't deserve.

Alternatives Considered: Vyond, PowToon, Animaker and Moovly

Reasons for Switching to CreateStudio: It seemed to have the best balance between cost, functionality, and user-friendliness. When weighing up all my needs and what I needed to use it for, it seemed the best "all-rounder" and has lived up to the expectations.

A great tool that is improving all the time

4.0 4 weeks ago New

Comments: I'm fairly new to create Studio 3 and am enjoying what it can do out of the box, but also finding learning it a little frustrating. Create studio works quite differently to other tools I've used like Davinci Resolve, Camtasia, Mango Animate and After effects, and while some parts are very intuitive, I find other parts I have to dig around for the controls. but a great tool, and I can only see this getting better and better.

Pros:

Premade animated Characters, lip sync with audio narration, Doodle animations, tons of premade content. Ability to output 1080P HD footage with Alpha channel. Text tittle animations (but more please). The ability to get a decent looking video in a relatively short amount of time. I think this tool is really going to grow on me and i'm sure I will come to love it.

Cons:

The simple interface means I have to dig around to find out to edit certain things. like how to rename a video you have already made? And I find Panning and zooming the timeline odd and not intuitive. I'd really love some keyboard shortcuts to zoom in on playhead position, and zoom out to entire timeline, and a spacebar to pan the timeline.

Comments: Excellent product. The perfectly editable templates allow you to adapt to any type of communication.

Pros:

The new management of avatars is that "extra touch" that allows you to improve the communication of your product

Cons:

Difficulty synchronizing audio if you want to cut a part and add it to another (for example the conclusion of a song after a few bars)

Nice software to make explainer videos

5.0 last month New

Comments: Overall when creating videos its been simple to use, albeit I don't use it as much as I would like but that is a time restraint on me not the application.

Pros:

Personally I like that it is easy to use with a large number of currated scenes and a simple drag and drop editable application.

Cons:

It did have a slight learning curve as we were used to using a similar but differerent application and the interface took a little getting used to.

excellent program

5.0 last month New

Comments: overall the program is great and i hope to keep learning it so i can become good at creating videos and clips.

Pros:

I'm still new with learning the program however i what i like the most is how fairly easy it is to maneuver.

Cons:

I'm glad Create studio added a lot more character's but it could use some more african american hair styles and more general outfits to change also woman dreadlock style hair and maybe some asian characters as well. also maybe some DJ stuff.

Amazing animation software.

5.0 8 months ago

Comments: My experience has been stellar. I have been using CreateStudio since they first came on the market in 2020. There customer service is by far the best of anything app or software I have ever used. The listen to their customers and have built an amazing animation suite that is second to none. It is constantly improving and growing.

Pros:

CreateStudio does not have a steep learning curve, so you can be up and creating videos in no time but in a short while you can master the program.

Cons:

There are some minor things I wish the program had at this point like certain actions and options; but the great thing is it's always being improved and new assets and options are continuously added.

It makes making video so much easier and fun

5.0 10 months ago

Pros:

Create Studio can make video just by changing the template to start with. That's an amazing experience. There are tones of apps out there that do so but not in a complete way. CC outstands those

Cons:

The characters are still less and variety of actions are yet limited, but I will like to grow with the team.

Very interesting, with some improvements

4.0 7 months ago

Comments: Overall the program is very good, without switching from one application to another it contains everything you need to create efficient videos.

Pros:

Create Studio is a program that combines animations, videos, presentations. Very useful for promoting your business. The templates are very varied. Some improvements are needed to get to be a great product.

Cons:

Some areas of the interface should be improved, many elements could be associated with others to facilitate editing, some features such as effects and object movements could be better organized. Template routs should be introduced. Also for the import of media I would suggest introducing the possibility of inserting directly in the created folder the items with the drag and drop (and not one at a time as is the case now).
