Animaker with over 10 million users creating professional 4k quality videos (animated and/or live) for On-boarding, Marketing, Branding, Simplify Complex Concepts, etc. in minutes
It is such a great resource to use. Helping you out anytime you need to create something great, your logos and videos will be imprinted in the minds of your customers.
Plans are a little misleading, the number of intros are limited in each plan and the lower priced plans also have limited quality for each intro.
It is so user friendly that its actually amazing. Its really easy to learn how to use and it has so many templates that almost everyone will be able to create a video that suits them.
I call it the curse of abundance. Some of the templates are only limited to a number of slides and so this limits what one can do with certain presentations.
Hands down its the "ease of use" that makes this a pleasure to use. Over the past few years they keep adding more features and services that just enhances the quality of the service.
No 4K video renders available, they have to keep up with the times.
A wonderful tool to make animated videos at affordable prices. The number of features and functionalities make it a powerful tool to bring its rivals down.
Paying for a year in advance will surely scare many people off, it isn't the best in that regard sadly.
The pure creativity of Animaker makes presentations and learning fun. All of the features and animation options are endless and make presenting and teaching new information fun.
I tried communicating with the team because I was displeased with the service.
It was very good, i am not a designer but i can create pretty good video by my self, save cost and easy to use.
If you add more characters (more than 4), there is an error message saying that it would hinder the quality of the video.
I really love the actions of the animations, like we can move a character from one point to another. It makes my animation lively and fun.
It isn't removed as advertized. I couldn't use the product and immediately asked for a refund where I was subjected with increasing insulting responses where they would not respond to my concerns.
What I love the most is Customer Service/Support. They are very helpful and ready to help.
My experience with Animaker has been horrible. I will not only not use this product, I will recommend that others not use it either.
Lora: I'm Lora. I'm a career coach in the professional services industry. Today I'm going to review the Animaker video software. I give it a rating of four. The business problem that I solve using Animaker video software is that in my communications with my customers, I have to repeat the same information and it's quite a bit of detail. The best thing that I could think of was to put together a cartoon that I could use to explain all of those details and direct my new customers and clients over to see that, and Animaker's video software helped me do that. What I like most about using Animaker video software is that it was free to start, so I got a really good connection with it, understanding how I was going to use it and explain my story, and then I was able to just do a simple upgrade, very inexpensive, and got quite a few more details, a lot of actions from the different characters I was able to build and even building customized characters. Now it tells my story for me and I don't have to repeat myself. What I dislike about Animaker is that the menu system is not very user-friendly. Once you get finished with your video, you have one selection which is to download. Once it downloads, you then get an email that tells you that your video is downloaded and gives you a link. Once you click on that link, it takes you to another screen of your video and your option again is download or to share with social media. I think it would be better if the first download was compiled for download. That way we would know that we're actually not hitting our download at this point. We could still go back and make an edit before we do our final download.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
