I've been using Videoscribe for years, and it just gets better and better.

Pros

I absolutely love Videoscribe. It's so easy to use and very quick to create impressive 'scribble-style' videos. The asset library is vast and there's even the option to upload your own SVGs if you have the appetite to create them.

Cons

It can sometimes be hard to find the assets you want because there are so many of them, and the search function is a bit basic.

no puedo hablar mucho de ella porque apenas pude utilizar la versión de prueba

Pros

adquiri un mini curso para crear videos animados que promovieran reflexiones y texto para ayuda en marketing, y video Scribe fue la aplicación que me presentaron y con ella me enseñaron.

Cons

la aplicación gratuita vence en 7 dias, quice comprarla pero ahora adquiri la aplicación de doodle maker, espero que pueda utilizarla y me sea mejor que video scribe para atraer visitas

As an instructional designer juggling multiple responsibilities, efficiency is crucial. VideoScribe's intuitive workflow and pre-made templates help me cut down on production time, allowing me to focus on other essential tasks.

Pros

What truly impresses me about VideoScribe is its ability to transform my instructional materials into engaging, whiteboard-style animations. This format resonates exceptionally well with adult learners, making it easier for them to grasp and retain information. The animations are smooth, and the final videos look incredibly polished.

Cons

The library of customizable images and animations could be more extensive. Sometimes when I'm explaining complex concepts I have a hard time finding the perfect visual elements to enhance my content. However, the ability to import my own media is very helpful.

Reasons for choosing VideoScribe

Easier to use than VYond and more functionality than Doodley.

Overall VideoScribe has helped us quickly create instructional videos that would have been much more costly to make if we'd had to hire it out to a digital artist.

Pros

The small feature set within VideoScribe means it's pretty easy to get started; there are not a ton of functions to learn how to use, it's more about learning how to use the small set of tools creatively to do all the different things you'd like to be able to do in your video. You can very quickly get up to speed and create a lot of video content without needing to know how to animate things or draw very well.

Cons

I wish there was a better drawing tool within VideoScribe. It is essentially a collection of clip-art. For instance, if you want to draw something as simple as a triangle, there is no drawing tool to make it exactly the way you want it. Instead, your options are to find a pre-drawn triangle, or put together 3 pre-drawn straight lines, or go to another program like Illustrator and draw the shape you want and save it as a .svg file. This is a simple example, but you can imagine if you want to draw something like an accurately-scaled chart or graph, etc. it's much more complicated than you'd expect.It would also be convenient if other audio file formats could be imported other than MP3.And of course more expanded image and audio libraries would be appreciated.

Pros

Me gusta crear mis videos con VideoScribe, es una herramienta sorprendente que ha revolucionado mi forma de crear contenido visual. Sus animaciones de pizarra blanca son cautivadoras y fáciles de crear, lo que ha mejorado drásticamente la forma en que comunico ideas y conceptos. Además, cuenta con una amplia biblioteca de elementos, y la posibilidad de importar imágenes personalizadas hacen que la creatividad fluya. Sin duda, VideoScribe ha elevado mi desempeño en la creación de videos explicativos.

Cons

Hasta el momento no he tenido inconvenientes con VideoScribe, al contrario me siento muy cómodo de usar sus funcionalidades.

Pros

It was easy until I started to get deep and notice that it's easy only for beginners

Cons

Customer service was awful on replying to refund of a payment happened minutes ago. They talk like robots they don't wanna keep their client. Refund process is never gonna happen even if you didn't use the program for more than 20 days and my card paid the next month without me noticing it. I asked for a refund as I didn't use it for 20 days they said that after using 7 days trail (which I didn't use) I should be happy with their service and not ask for a refund.
