Digital Sales Assistant Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easiest ad building ever!" June 19, 2019 5.0 Pros I love the ease and the optional stock photos. It is always so hard to find what I want and sometimes there are higher prices for certain photos on other sites and everything is here all in one. Not switching from one to the other. Cons There isn't much I don't like about it. I wish there was more fluidness with some images and ability to dive in and photoshop images but I can always do that.

Business Head Arts and Crafts Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Cloud Based Banner / Artwork tool" January 7, 2019 5.0 Loved it going to subscribe for one of there plans.

Senior Designer Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "It's exactly what we were looking for to create animated ads" May 3, 2018 5.0 Pros I really enjoy the new timeline feature. It helps when creating complicated animated ads with multiple transitions. I love how easy to use it is with a lot of options for customizations like uploading your own font, keeping an image bank, and specific transitions for each item. It's very flexible for such a great price. Cons I like all the exporting options but the animated optimized versions can be clunky and blurry. We have to export as HTML 5 for the ads to work in AdWords. It would also be nice to be able to lock layers when working with so many. Using the eye tool can sometimes be tricky if you forget to turn something on or off. It would also be nice to have a current time indicator. The vertical line in the timeline disappears and starts at the beginning whenever I try to pause it. Review Source PB Per B.

We are very happy to hear that you like our platform and our customer support. As you mentioned, you do indeed save a lot of time creating multiple banners at the same time, and to save even more, you can use the layers panel rather than going into edit mode when making changes to them. There are some options that are not available on the layer, but most of them are there. Also, as you experienced, our customer support team is always there to help you out in the shortest time possible with any questions you might have, even on how to have a more fluid workflow. jP jordan P. Graphic Designer Food & Beverages Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Would you like a snack?" June 26, 2019 4.0 Being able to track our own data/analytics ourselves and not rely on other agencies. Create multiple ads and variations quickly and efficiently. Pros How quickly I can design, produce, and aminate ads. How easily I can layout ads for different sizes. The easy to follow and track data analytics. Cons It could use more customization and functionality. More advanced/ complicated animation. Sharing and embedding the banner code with other websites and advertisers proved to be difficult for them to use the ads I created. Reason for choosing The Brief Seemed to have a better user interface/ more adaptability. Review Source Response from The Brief October 23, 2019 Hello Jordan, We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us and post a review for Bannersnack. Creating banners in a fast and easy manner was always amongst our main goals, and we are delighted to see that we have managed to do just that!

BS Brendan S. Owner Furniture Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Bannersnack Works!" October 19, 2018 5.0 Pros This is a easy to use functional system. Cons The only thing missing is a ruler tool for measurements and the option to choose DPI. Review Source MV Mahima V. Graphic Designer Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Easy, Best and Brilliant results. The program allows you to create animated banners that look super" May 29, 2018 4.0 Pros The program is very easy to use, I haven't made animated banners before, but it allowed me to create quite a few with limited knowledge but great results. The transition is easy and keeps getting updated every now and then. If you get stuck there is a team to assist you with any question or technical issue. I will always recommend this program, if you have to make banners for promoting your business. Cons Every program has its pros and cons. Bannersnack allows you to create effective banners, but the two drawbacks I found was, if there is an update in the transition, it doesn't update the existing banner on the website. Also, the team is US based so the people don't respond immediately, unless you are in States as well. But having said that, they always respond! :) Review Source Aparna P. Executive Banking Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Banner creation and promotion" November 2, 2018 5.0 Pros Bannersnack is very good tool to create banners for promotion and easy to use drag and drop solutions. Cons Pricing is bit higher should provide as per export plan so that who are not willing to subscribe plan they can use it. Review Source JA Josh A. Digital Marketer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best Banner Creation Tool" July 2, 2018 5.0 Saving tons of time and money creating banner ads. Pros This tool has saved me so much time and money. You can create amazing HTML5 banner ad sets in under an hour. They have great templates and the interface is easy to use. The price is incredibly fair. It will pay for itself after you make one or two sets of banner ads. Cons No cons. The only feature that I'd like to see added is a Google AdWords banner set template. Some of the banner sizes are not compatible with AdWords. It would be nice to have a banner set template that included only Google AdWords approved banner sizes. Review Source DG Donny G. Marketing Director Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great HTML5 ad solution for the technologically-challenged" June 9, 2017 5.0 Pros Bannersnack makes creating banner ads easy. Its drag-and-drop interface is a game-changer when it comes to producing animated ads. Our organization had given up on HTML5/Flash until stumbling across this software, which provides a great deal of functionality in a very easy to use package. Cons In my opinion, the pre-designed ads are lacking. As a result, we create most of our designs from scratch--luckily, this is easy to do in Bannersnack. Review Source AH Amy H. Member Consumer Goods Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great easy to use program!" October 12, 2018 5.0 Very Good! Pros Very user friendly, click and drag options are nice.
