### "Professional content for non professional users. "

April 15, 2021

5.0

Really easy to create quick meaningful content.

Pros

This software is easy to learn and easy to use. If you can figure out Powerpoint you can figure out Vyond. With baked in features like sound effects and music, as well as camera zooms it helps to give a clean professional look to your content

Cons

I wish they continued to built their catalogue and templates.

### "Adding Dimension to Online Training"

April 12, 2021

5.0

I quickly learned how to use the product and implemented so many videos for marketing purposes, software rollouts, and even to spice up my elearning courses. It’s fun to use and adds another level of dimension to online training!

Pros

Ease of use, adds humor and relevance, so many uses!

Cons

I love this software so much and have recommended it to many people and companies.

Reason for choosing Vyond

Many of the videos I saw as examples were funny and got the message across.

### "LOVE THIS SOFTWARE!"

May 26, 2021

5.0

This has enhanced the way we do videos and how we use media with infographics. I love the ease of use and the ease of learning the software. I came in with no experience and was able to make a video instantly.

Pros

If you are a beginner in video creation and want to enhance training or any other media with infographics then Vyond is your answer! I started using this 3+ years ago and it changed the way we provide training. Its a great resource to change text based material into infographic video.

Cons

I can't say anything bad about it other than maybe adding more resources and being able to integrate other media into the software easier. Sometimes the software closes or stops working properly if you load in external media.

### "Powerful online animation studio"

April 27, 2021

5.0

Very satisfied with Vyond.

Pros

Vyond allows for rapid creation/storyboarding. The stock animations, images, music, and sound provide a plethora of project assets. A huge plus is the ability to create custom characters.

Cons

Alpha channel support would be a nice thing to have.

### "Vyond is amazing!"

April 12, 2021

5.0

I've had very positive experiences with Vyond over the years and I'm always excited to see the enhancements they've included in the monthly updates.

Pros

I love that this product provides the ability for the user to be creative while developing content. I love the scenes/props/characters and just the overall default images available in the program. I also like that I have the ability to create my own characters. This program is very user-friendly and gives frequent updates to its users.

Cons

At times the program loses connection which definitely reinforces your need to save often.

### "Engaging Animation Made Simple"

April 13, 2021

5.0

Currently, I am using Vyond as part of a change management initiative for a Salesforce launch. The ability to provide a visualization of a CRM with engaging animations has been key to the product launch.

Pros

The library with props, people, places, and more is a dream for someone who is not a graphic designer. Having spent my career working in timeline-based animation software, Vyond was easy to pick up with well-written tutorials. I love the examples that are shared with the community to give you how-to tips and get the creative juices flowing.

Cons

I haven't found anything yet. It seems like the technical roadmap is always being updated based on user requests, which is great.

Reason for choosing Vyond

I kept seeing these great explainer videos online and wondered how did people create those. After researching Vyond, I saw how easy it was and decided to purchase the software for my team.

### "Jeannie out of the Bottle"

April 13, 2021

5.0

Pros

Once we started using Vyond, our video and communications was never the same again. Vyond enables us to use props, characters and animations along with music and sound effects to speak more effectively to our audience. It's the convenience factor of having access to all the assets that drives the team to be more creative and capable of producing videos quickly. Thus, saving us time. Vyond has positioned our team front and center to the leadership team as well as the audience.

Cons

There are some limitations to the software but Vyond is continuously updating their software and communicating the updates to the clients through emails.

### "Great for small business"

April 12, 2021

5.0

Overall a great addition to my video production toolkit.

Pros

The variety of animation assets available in Vyond is unmatched.

Cons

It would help if there were simpler ways of placing objects in the hands of characters.

### "Professional content anyone can create"

May 18, 2021

5.0

I create short explainer videos that are put into eLearnings to describe a concept or process before showing the system steps. I also create standalone videos, again, typically as a training aid to explain a new system process or how-to.

Pros

I use the templates to get ideas and then customize it from there, or build my own off of an idea I see in a template. There are settings and props for almost every situation. As someone with very little video production and zero animation experience, this was very easy to learn.

Cons

Our business is manufacturing, and I’d like to see more characters in this type of setting without the safety vests or uniform.

### "Quick and powerful tools for professional content"

April 13, 2021

5.0

We have smaller budgets now and can't afford to spend several thousands on video content as we used to. This is such a great solution for us. It also takes away the back and forth of creating something, as well as the time it would take to work with an outside vendor. Sure, we still need certain videos to be created professionally, but for the most part, this has met and exceeded our needs as a company.

Pros

I love that I don't need design experience to create a professional video in a matter of minutes. The features are so easy to use. And even if you don't have too much experience using Vyond, there are a lot of great tutorials and tips to get you started. You don't need to be a pro to whip up a great looking video for your content marketing and promotions.

Cons

Not much - You've made a lot of great improvements so I don't have much to say in terms of what I don't like.

### "Easy, professional and simply the best!"

November 15, 2019

5.0

Pros

Makes professional animation videos in a fraction of the time with all its functionalities and templates. Voice overs with lip sync allows me to easily change dialogues into different languages without needing to re-create videos. Have tried many different softwares and couldn't find a better alternative. Don't waste money and time using other options. Vyond is worth the investment.

Cons

Wish there are other pricing plans that are more affordable.

### "Vyond-instructional videos that are actually fun as well as useful"

April 15, 2021

4.0

We use a variety of software including screen captures and videos to avoid learning fatigue. Since the airline industry changes quickly and we have a large workforce, nimbleness in training development is important. Vyond allows me to storyboard, script and "record" a video in a few hours, and it looks great. That is a major win in my opinion.

Pros

I love the custom avatar feature, not just because i could make a cartoon of myself (although I did). We have thousands of employees (over 100K) and a lot of training videos. The training teams try to involve front-line employees in the process since peer to peer advice is usually well received. Many employees who are camera shy and would never want their image recorded absolutely love having an avatar with their own voice in an animated video.

Cons

I wish there was more diversity in the hair and clothing styles for all character types (Modern, Business and Whiteboard). It's difficult to show a diverse group that doesn't have at least one "twin".

### "Expensive for what it is"

April 13, 2021

4.0

I liked Vyond and made some good videos - comedy sketch shows rather than corporate presentations. But the cost seems aimed at corporates rather than individual creatives.

Pros

I was able to create several videos using Vyond during my two month subscribtion - this without any prior experience.

Cons

The preview function hanged frequently - my internet connection not an issue. There weren't enough actions that characters could perform.

### "New User Who Sees Huge Potential"

April 12, 2021

5.0

Pros

I am a fairly new instructional designer and new Vyond user but I must say that I already love the product. Vyond is very popular in the industry and for obvious reasons. As a new user, I was able to jump in and start producing with the product without much difficulty. Like any new product, it did take a bit of playing around to get familiar with the platform, but the learning curve was not a huge one. I will use this tool to create engaging e-learning videos that effectively bring storytelling to life.

Cons

Wish the trial was. bit longer. Many other e-learning programs ( like Storyline) have much longer trial periods that allow me to play around and explore more before committing to purchasing the product. If you are working and have any kind of busy life, the trial period is over in the blink of an eye.

### "Great product. Super easy to use for quick turnaround projects."

April 12, 2021

5.0

It's not perfect for every project, but for the projects, Vyond is suited for the development time is cut drastically.

Pros

It's very intuitive. If you have little understanding of video design you can create something great. If you're more experienced with video development then you can create something with a lot of detail and movement in a fraction of the time you would create in Premiere Pro or After Effects.

Cons

While you can upload your own assets, you are limited to what they have available in their catalog. Also, if you a Premiere Pro or AE user you will find the product limiting if you're trying to make it work like those programs.

Pros

Ease and quickness of use for the price.

Cons

My only criticisms are very limited options of templates and fonts.

Reason for choosing Vyond

The ease of use and options for the price.

### "Vyond is the best!"

April 13, 2021

5.0

Awesome experience! And it made me very popular at work. I have a personal account that I use for fun and side (paying) projects.

Pros

It's so easy to learn and use. It only takes a few weeks (1-2 months) to become an expert. It also supports creativity. I created a video using animated characters with actual pictures of my my home and office.

Cons

A little expensive and have to pay extra for the Contemporary characters.

Reason for choosing Vyond

Super easy to use and had more features than the competitors.

### "Vyond Review"

April 12, 2021

5.0

My customers love the videos I create for them with Vyond. The video quality I am able to create with Vyond is excellent.

Pros

I really like the theme templates. They help me get ideas I hadn't thought of and are easy to edit. I also really like how I can continue a scene on the next slide. The copy function also is really useful.

Cons

I wish they had a package that was less expensive for people like me that does not use the software often. I also wish there was a way to put a badge or logo on a characters work shirt and hat.

I like Vyond you can make really great looking videos with ease.

Pros

I like the ease of the functionality to build a video. I like that you can customize avatars and add special effects to the various objects included in the tool.

Cons

When personalizing avatars it can become cumbersome unless it is user error and I am doing this wrong. I do not love the music selections and would like to see that catalogue expand.

April 13, 2021

It helps us to create highly engaging training material and to also create fun and fresh social media video bites. So easy to customise with so many options and quick to turnaround. The ready made templates are also great

Pros

It really simplifies our ability to create amazing, engaging content

Cons

I can't think of anything here. Obviously you cannot be all things to all people

Reason for choosing Vyond

It just seemed like the best choice and easy to trial and then we got hooked

### "Great video build system"

April 12, 2021

5.0

Overall I like the tool and I use it for replacing plain classic ppts to make things more interesting. The feedback I received for my videos was very positive, so I'm happy I discovered vyond.

Pros

I liked the multiple templates, animations already available but also customisable, intuitive features, lots of options to use, build your own avatars etc. It's easy to use and if really want to dig into customization you have plenty of options.

Cons

I didn't find any cons. I found options for all my needs to build the video. I am not sure if it doesn't exist or I can't find it: maybe have a voice option to read a script instead of recording my own voice.

### "Really Happy with Vyond - Would Recommend"

April 12, 2021

5.0

I used Vyond for a personal introduction video when starting a new job remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic. It made for a highly effective, stand out output which was easy to share with colleagues and clients. It took more work and learning curve than I expected as someone with no prior video editing experience, but this effort was worthwhile for the end product I found myself having a much easier time when using it for additional videos. Result is so good I’m now being requested to involve Vyond on professional work projects.

Pros

End result for video was engaging and effective for virtual introduction purposes.

Cons

I found it challenging to learn how to implement character motion paths and time up audio with lip syncing.

### "Cool animated videos"

December 11, 2020

5.0

I use it anytime I need a static image with cool backgrounds and characters, for creating videos, animated gifs, and comics.

Pros

This tool made it so easy to create animated videos with ready to use characters and backgrounds. I even created comics using vyond and it wasn't difficult at all.

Cons

This tool provides a lot of options, but you need to spend some time poking around and learning it all. The options are not right in front of you always.

### "VYOND is my way to go above and beyond"

April 12, 2021

5.0

I cannot live without VYOND!

Pros

What I like most about creating VYOND videos is its unlimited potential to create scenario-based learning. With the ability to create our own characters, we could create a scene of Socrates talking to a modern-day freshman, if we so desired. Imagine what he would say!

Cons

It is a little expensive so I do not think I could justify purchasing it on my own for videos I make as a student in my doctoral program.
