### "A good tool that can be way better, even have vyond originals same as netflix, OPEN SOURCE."

April 14, 2021

4.0

Vyond is an amazing tool not only to make corporate videos but also to advocate for human rights, and while all of this is happening i wish they open up the old library as there used to be a lot of fans for vyond before it was purchased and made into corporate module, having an open-source is free advertisement

Pros

Audio sync is very helpful, curated scenes are important but it should be updated every now and then while keeping the old ones for sure

Cons

the transition needs a bit more work, choosing the colours to be used in the dynamic transition is important

Reason for choosing Vyond

audio sync and it is easy to use

### "Great product! User friendly! "

April 12, 2021

4.0

We are implementing safety videos and the executives have been very pleased.

Pros

The software is very accessible and user friendly. I had a course up and running within a week.

Cons

Sometimes it can feel restrictive in terms of what kinds of video files can be uploaded.

### "Vyond: A great tool for animation"

April 12, 2021

5.0

Overall, I'm very pleased with Vyond and find that it is a great value for production.

Pros

Vyond is easy to set up and comes with a ton of great characters that are easily customizable. I love all the sets and different environments that come stock and you can build whatever your imagination can dream up as well.

Cons

I feel that there could be better movements/emotions that the characters could have. For example, if there was a slider that could moderate the expressions so that there is more subtlety to the characters faces.

Thank you for your review. I'll share your feedback with the product team about adding the ability to moderate expressions. We love to hear from you any time you have feedback like this. Please feel free to connect with us at community@vyond.com.

### "Great Software"

April 13, 2021

5.0

My overall experience has been positive. I used Vyond at my last job and do at my current as well. I subscribed for a short term to leverage it for a project for an interview (after which I received a job offer!).

Pros

I love how easy it is to use Vyond and that with the ease of use, the features are not compromised. There are so many possibilities to make unique videos and the Vyond team is continuously improving and updating the software.

Cons

Sometimes the timeline is cumbersome if you have a screen that has multiple assets, I can be difficult to manage them. Also, I wish there were a feature to hide/show assets when developing.

### "Easy breazy"

December 12, 2022

5.0

I actually enjoyed the process of creating content with this. It was easy and fun, and especially creating characters (based on people i know) was a blast. Result was amazing too.

Pros

Makes animating easy even for non tech-savvy people. Beautiful animations. Looks super professional,

Cons

The cost is a bit above my budget. Unfortunately the animation options were a bit limited in the free trial.

### "Vyond animated video software"

April 13, 2021

5.0

I created team introductions, software simulations, and branching scenarios using Vyond. It is fun to use, and the feedback has been positive. People in our organization ask how we can use Vyond videos to get out a message, explain a process or procedure, and incorporate it into annual and ad-hoc training.

Pros

Vyond is very easy to use. I learned how to create my first video in just a few minutes. The learning curve was very fast and there are a lot of tutorials and how-to videos. I like how I can customize characters to look like our instructors and team members. The templates are great and let me create a video quickly.

Cons

Some of the props and character design elements are not available for all body types, but I was told they are working on the programming to fix it.

### "Great Presentation Tool When You Don't Have Trained Presenters"

April 12, 2021

5.0

We have been able to use Vyond to address delicate, yet important topics that could otherwise come across as awkward or disingenuous with unskilled live actors.

Pros

It can be difficult to make "live" training material when you don't have a team to skilled presenters handy, especially as many of us continue to work from home. With Vyond, I have been able to create a cast of characters all by myself. Once you become familiar with simple tricks and tips, the timeline builder is easy to use and creates seamless animation while building one "slide" at a time.

Cons

If you're a "jump right in" kind of person, there can be a bit of a learning that sometime comes with trial by error. But like anything, the more you use it, the easier it gets.

### "My go-to software"

April 13, 2021

5.0

The software has added so much to my development as a learning designer. It gives me variety in my curriculum and makes it more interesting. And best of all, I keep learning new things it's capable of doing so I don't ever feel like I know everything about it!

Pros

Vyond is incredibly easy to learn. The extensive selection of templates help users springboard into a finished product with the addition of a few details. Users can be as design as much or little of a video as desired and still come out with a professional product. The software is continuously being updated with more features to make it more useful and versitile.

Cons

The software can sometimes take time to save and transition from the video library back to the design screens. But, I've never lost any work and that's worth the extra time it takes to save videos.

### "Using Vyond for training"

April 13, 2021

4.0

The customer service at Vyond is terrific. If you have an idea, but can't quite figure out how to do it, they will either point you to a webinar or video that shows you how to create it or one of their representatives will work with you directly to help you build it.

Pros

Vyond helps me create creative pieces of video that I can import into my training courses. The camera angles and animations help the content come alive for the users.

Cons

Sometimes it's easier to create an animation in PowerPoint, but every month Vyond is making improvements and they listen to their users.

### "Easy to Produce and Great Results"

April 12, 2021

5.0

Pros

What I like most about the software are the already built templates that I can customize as needed. Some of the templates are even based on topics or categories and help me organize my thoughts when creating a video.

Cons

The only thing I would really like Vyond to have is closed captioning as this is really important in our organization. I know I can do open captions but that isn't quite what we want.

### "Easy to Learn But Somewhat Hard to Master"

May 18, 2021

5.0

Pros

It is very easy to learn Vyond in a short time. The interface is rather user-friendly and simple to navigate. It has a bunch of assets and templates in the library. You can choose your desired assets from the built-in library or upload yours and use them in no time.

Cons

There is no animation effects tailed for text. It should allow users to create folders to manage or organize their uploaded files in the library.

### "Development Efficiencies"

April 14, 2021

5.0

Overall, I am happy with the software. Time savings is the biggest benefit for me and the interface is much less clunky than some other character animator software I have used in the past.

Pros

Vyond is a super easy tool to learn if you are already used to slide-based development strategies. The interface is similar to other eLearning authoring tools, so the learning curve was not very steep. The character animation options are what set this tool apart from other animation software. TI have found huge time savings using Vyond and my learners and stakeholders agree that the look and feel is modern and "refreshing."

Cons

The only learning curve I experienced was getting used to how Vyond "continues scenes." There are some moments I have to rework slides because my character doesn't flow from one scene to the next--this is especially true if I need to re-record audio or insert an audio clip replacement. I have also found some limitations with the asset library and the character's outfits and expressions. Would also like to see Vyond continue to add in diversity to the library in more ways than skin color.

### "Lighten Up the Learning"

April 13, 2021

5.0

Vyond has been a game changer for our instructional videos. It's brought some excitement to our meetings, onboarding emails, and more!

Pros

I love that I can create learning content that is interesting, jovial, and informational. It's extremely easy to use and get set up as well, which makes the learning curve that much speedier. There are lots of options from templates to props to characters.

Cons

Although there are lots of options when creating characters, I do wish there was a little more customization of placement or color selections. But this is such a small thing as there really are a good amount of options!

### "Vyond for Dummies - or at least those of us in communications who aren't video crazed."

April 13, 2021

5.0

Pros

As the title implies, I'm not a video communicator. I'm a writer, I'm a designer, but producing videos is not something I'm entirely adept at or enjoy doing. Until Vyond. This software makes it so east to create a video that it's fool-proof. There's still talent required to have a great script to start. But with that, anyone can make a video. I particularly love the templates and e-blasts to get new tools and tricks. I still won't say I love making videos, but it's been an invaluable tool in my communication packages.

Cons

Because I am a graphic designer, there are things I want to make happen in a video that I'm not able to do with Vyond. But for what I'm doing, I don't need anything more technical or advanced than the drag and drops and adjustments this tool offers.

April 14, 2021

Awesome! KEEP ADDING TEMPLATES!

Pros

LOVE the ease of use - so simple to pick a template and customize. Vyond lets me tell the story with relatable characters, concepts, and props. Easy and quick to publish and share.

Cons

The cartoons sometimes feel a little childish. I'd love another alternative that allowed for real graphic templates.

April 13, 2021

5.0

It has been a pretty good experience, I am happy with it and my clients are happy with my prodctions.

Pros

I had tried some of the Adobe products and the learning curve was pretty steep. Vyond made it easy to quickly make a video and make it look like the character was talking. All my clients have been very impressed with what I'm able to produce.

Cons

Some of the interface isn't straightforward, I've had to fiddle around to make it do what I want for some of my projects. Overall though, I've been able to figure out how to make it do what I want it to do.

April 14, 2021

5.0

Pros

Pre-stocked characters and props are good, along with the stock sounds. I like being able to continue a scene to make more complex animations.

Cons

It is difficult using it in the browser sometimes. There are no alignment tools for text and graphics (from what I can tell) and I feel like the zoom function is awkward.

### "Engaging and creative solutions for your needs"

May 18, 2021

5.0

Mostly internal training of our software.

Pros

It's quick to learn, and with clear tools you can instantly start practicing and being productive. Linking your audio to any character makes voice work simple and easy. Having animation created for you with just your beginning and end points makes the process far quicker for producing useful videos. I really like the expert webinars they offer which takes your basic skills to new heights and allows you to be creative beyond what you can come up with by yourself.

Cons

I would like even more tools for customizing the characters, especially in the face and a few more in the body types and sizes, although they have expanded it some in the past few years.
