Pros

  • It is excellent software, I enjoyed its user interface, and it has many wonderful templates.

  • It contains a huge number of different and very useful templates that are sources of inspiration for new videos. Overall, it saves significant amount of time during video making and editing.

  • Its super easy and fast tp use. Everyone can create great content with this tool.

  • Excellent software, excellent support and great price.

Cons

  • Perhaps the subtitles insertion tool is a bit difficult and non-practical to use.

  • PlayPlay is far too easy to use--it should be illegal.

  • Limited to templates but that has NEVER been an issue for us.

  • I struggled a little with how much text was too much and how t change the colors, but finally figured that out.

"PlayPlay, a tool designed to tell stories in the organization and make high-quality videos."

Overall: PlayPlay is based on the development of a compact and agile environment, since it offers the necessary tools in an intuitive format, without incorporating functionalities that we never use, but with which we are going to need to tell a story and create an exceptional video.We can easily switch between the screens related to our designs and see the different variations, maintain versions that allow us to perform evolutionary maintenance based on the behavior of our marketing campaigns and without a doubt, grow our brand.

Pros: PlayPlay's design has been based on creating an interactive and easy-to-use environment.We can create videos and save them in the specific format that we are going to need, either to publish them on social networks, YouTube or our website. We can also create animations by incorporating dynamic elements, which can be, for example, images, music, custom logos, among others, and we can add customization to any part of our video based on our needs, to apply transitions, colors and effects that we may require, in addition to manipulating the duration and format of our final product.

Cons: PlayPlay is quite compact in terms of the available functionalities, which allow you to make spectacular videos with very little effort, with professional results, however, it may be that in some cases in which we require a very specialized design, we need some additional tools to those existing in the current version. However, PlayPlay is widely used and valued for its simplicity, and for the ease it has to tell spectacular stories with very little effort.

Switched From: Wave.video
Reasons for Switching to PlayPlay: PlayPlay allows it to be adopted and used very easily and quickly, and its trial period allows us to ensure that the available functionalities cover all our needs.

"Hands down, the best platform for professional, short-form videos "

Overall: The biggest business problem we're solving is the fact that we can actually create and use video in our content. We were never able to do that well before. Also, that the videos are professionally designed, and so that justifies the cost.

Pros: The platform is really easy to use. The standout features, to me, are the way building and editing proceses are set up. It's like you are creating a story board, and then all the options for motion design, text, imagery can be added with a drag and drop. Also, you can start with a template if you don't know what to do. Once you've made your video, it's one click to look at the whole thing (with hilarious videos while you wait), and then easy to go back and edit. One of the reasons we use PlayPlay is that making videos before required a person or an expert. Who has time and budget for that??

Cons: Since I am at b2b company, it would be cool to see a few more templates for business people. But honestly, most of our customers and employees want to be entertained. I struggled a little with how much text was too much and how t change the colors, but finally figured that out. Also, I was looking for help and wasn't sure how I could get to the knowledge base. The customer success team guided me there. They were very helpful.

Alternatives Considered: Canva, Wave.video and Promo.com
Reasons for Choosing PlayPlay: My team found PlayPlay easier to use overall. We had a lot more to work with to get videos and done and out the door.
Switched From: Wave.video
Reasons for Switching to PlayPlay: Someone recommended PlayPlay, and I found it was an overall better experience.

"Useless - didn't use my script"

Pros: it's easy to use indeed, but useless since the video generated had nothing to do with my script

Cons: The video generated had nothing to do with my script

"So easy to make videos!"

Pros: Very user-friendly compared to other software, 30 minutes only to become an expert user ;) No need to call for a video agency, we can make videos ourselves with my team (8 videos a month!) Cool templates to make videos in 3 minutes when you are a bit in a rush Ability to set your own branding with no additional cost

Cons: Nothing to say - maybe that the software is not in French, but it's not a problem within our company

Alternatives Considered: Lumen5 and Animoto
Reasons for Choosing PlayPlay: PlayPlay is much more user-friendly: easy to find what you want, nice back-office design, quicker to make . a video...
