I win more business when I use synthesia to visualize my business proposals.

Pros It get you to about \*0% of a completed video that looks polished and professional. Cons I don't like sometimes how the ai attempts things like humor.

Founder E-Learning Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy to use" February 9, 2025 4.0 It's great and very user friendly, especially the templates Pros Easy to use, nice avatars and a great variety Cons pricing is a bit expensive for limited time of videos Switched from [HeyGen](https://www.capterra.com/p/10015133/HeyGen/) Easier to use and more flexible templates Review Source FC Frank C. The Chef Online Media Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "My experience with the synthesia software" September 30, 2024 4.0 All in all, after the avatar debacle, I was somewhat satisfied. However, since I struggled with the mentioned difficulties and video creation sometimes took an unbelievably long time, I also looked into other products. I came across the software HeyGen, which is comparable to Synthesia but much faster in video creation, and there were never any issues with the content of 'weather report' videos. The pricing for both programs is similar, but with HeyGen, I can create as many video sequences as I want, with a maximum duration of 5 minutes. Pros What I liked the most was the possibility to create a personal avatar. Cons However, what I didn’t like at all was that I sometimes had to wait up to an hour for the video to be completed. Often it said 'just 1 minute left,' but it ended up taking almost an hour. Additionally, a few of my videos were blocked, even though I had only created a harmless weather report with my own avatar. When creating my avatar, it wasn’t clear that the outro also needed to be recorded as video and not just audio. As a result, it took several attempts and a lot of time until I finally had my own avatar.

Ive received a lot of positive feedback from our team on learning and engagement compared to what it was previously. Pros Great product and very engaging compared to pdfs or slides where user engagement is typically low. Cons Pricing can be extremely high if you want to scale video production.

Owner E-Learning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Streamlined video production" October 29, 2024 5.0 Overall, I'd give this 9 out of 10. To get the full marks I need some body movement, hand and arm gestures as well as the ability to have sideways on poses and add props.

User-friendly tools that simplify the process of making presentations, video tutorials, and explanations. 3. Support for multiple languages and accents, helping to create content for an international audience. Cons The lack of a personal avatar option in Serbian. Review Source SN Sara N.

I've used this tool for a year and seen the continual improved transformation of its capabilities. Pros Ability to select various Avatar's. Ease of use and option to edit script text per scene. PowerPoint like features at a higher level with more versatility. Cons I wish it was just like PowerPoint to be able to take and existing deck and edit and move around graphic and add an Avatar with a script. I also wish one could cut & paste any image instead of just the import option. Review Source LM Larry M.
