Owner operator E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The only video creation software you would ever need. " November 1, 2022 5.0 It’s😄. I’ve been with the team since they started and took the opportunity to buy the lifetime access. I am constantly blown away by the updates. It’s just the best software on the market Pros This is the highest standard software I own. I no longer use any other platforms and wish I had only ever bought Create Studio Pro. It’s soooo good Cons I would like iCloud storage to free up space on my computer Review Source KM Karma M. Special Education Teacher E-Learning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Best for hands-off, high impact video creation, but it comes at a price" October 21, 2022 4.0 I have made many useful videos using CreateStudio. However, I keep another video creation software open to have access to basic features like cropping. It is overall a fun software to use, but I continue to have moments of feeling surprised that certain features are ones I do not have access to as a lifetime member or that certain features simply do not exist. Pros Non-human characters and Text to Speech with modifying options make this one of the only animation softwares with drag and drop character animations with the possiblity of child-friendly animated cartoon characters. Direct access to media hosting websites saves your data storage and allows for inspired additions to your projects in the moment. Cons Unless you are paying gor their highest level of membership access to the media library including characters and project templates is limited to about 10% of their content. Transitions between character animation presets are non existant making for choppy motions when chainging animations in a scene. Review Source DB Dave B. Owner Media Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "CreateStudio is the best value app in its class " November 18, 2022 5.0 I can use CreateStudio to create unique looking videos for myself and clients without the steep learning curve that competing products have in the knowledge that there is a responsive support team available should I need help. Pros This is a fully featured animation platform that is easy and intuitive to use. There is an amazing collection of templates and characters to choose from and the creators are incredibly generous and supportive with digital assets and guidance on how to use them. The software is constantly being updated and they listen carefully to customer feedback and act on it. Cons I can't really fault the software in its current state. What I would say is that it was harder to use intuitively in the early days (particularly the timeline) but they've acted on user feedback to improve things dramatically and added some amazing features, templates and characters.

Composer Music Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Found it by accident, couldn't live without it now" November 18, 2022 5.0 I found CS by accident when using a photo "animation" software that I didn't realize was related. I had purchased that software (I don't know if I'm allowed to name it, so I won't), THEN found CS. I was so intrigued by the ability to use the characters, backgrounds, etc. and make animated videos way easier than I had in the past, that I contacted CS to find out if I could get a refund on the program I had purchased, so that I could put the money into CS. I know, right? Crazy. However...they not only let me keep the original software, but they gave me a massive "credit" so that I could purchase characters and such in CS to try it out. They were incredibly nice, and that goes a long way with me. When CS Pro came out, the lifetime all-access pass was a no-brainer for me. I am more appreciative than I can say! Pros There are SO many positives about CreateStudio Pro! The people are great and responsive, they continually fix bugs as needed and give us new tools, characters, templates, scenes, etc. to use. It has a bit of a learning curve, but overall it is WAY more fun and useful than it is difficult to learn. I honestly can't say enough about how much I truly enjoy using it. Cons Honestly, CS Pro compares so favorably to other software I've used that there is nothing I "like least" about it. I am not all that much of a techie, and it is likely that I don't know enough to know what it might be missing. The only thing I can think of is that if we had actual 3D characters (i.e. which we could rotate to show the back of a person, or the side, etc.) it would be even more useful.

Water Treatment Consultant Chemicals Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "CreateStudio, a very complete tool with great usability, to design and create videos very quickly." February 5, 2023 5.0 CreateStudio offers multiple uses and applications, to strengthen a brand, develop an idea, to create spectacular videos with just a few steps and in a very efficient way. It is constantly updated to offer new templates, functions, features, and integration options, so it really is an excellent investment in the medium and long term to have this platform and make it part of our daily work. Pros With CreateStudio, designs and video creation reflect a professional result. Its design tool allows us to add 3D effects and presets compatible with most of the formats currently used for content dissemination, these designs include both finished products and sketches to demonstrate an idea and subsequently make the final deliverable with all the components considered.CreateStudio allows us to create videos with multiple sizes and frames, according to the needs of the website or social networks with which we are working. Cons CreateStudio is an excellent tool and currently has users both professionals and experimenters in the area of design, and continues to gain space in the field of idea generation with mechanisms of publication in mass media such as social networks, professional networks, and much more. That is why if there were more options to be able to try the product and use it before making a purchase of its licensing, many people who want to improve their business on a small scale will see themselves more favored with the use of this excellent platform. Switched from [Storykit](https://www.capterra.com/p/212391/Storykit/) CreateStudio is a very complete platform, designed to be intuitive and interactive and is constantly updated. Review Source Graeme W. Owner Media Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A powerful video editor" April 25, 2024 5.0 I mainly make videos for myself and my friends. My overall experience is excellent using Create Studio. The official Facebook group is a great way to see how others make videos. I can create videos by looking at all the videos posted. Also, many users upload tutorials to the group that help everyone. Pros Almost everything is possible with Create Studio 3. I like how quick it is to create elements for videos I make. Cons The only problem I have is my computer. Having a small hard drive sometimes causes some issues with rendering. A larger hard drive will remedy that. Review Source KR Kris R. Director of Worship Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Well worth purchasing" November 4, 2022 5.0 I use the software mostly to create general announcements for our church events and activities. It's quick and easy to use and makes doing this task simple. The AI voices work great as I can make them fit the video easier but our audience doesn't really care for the robotic tones. Those voices have come a long way and are pretty close to real voices if we could get more fine details on inflections. The alternative of recording a real human voice over is easy to do if you like the sound of your voice or if you don't have to make several announcements and want them to sound different. Pros It's so easy to use that I can create several short videos in one evening. The drag and drop features are amazing and there is a lot of characters, backgrounds, and props to choose from. Cons Most of the animations are geared toward product sales or services. I wish there were more religious characters. Also there is good holiday assets but new holiday ones usually come out too late to use them in the same year. Transitions between scenes are lacking but they have just added more in the latest update. Lastly, it's hard to make full length video productions. This program is more designed for shorter video announcements or commercials.

Director Leisure, Travel & Tourism Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I use Create Studio to do everything from clips to full on videos. Plus.... it is real fun to use." November 18, 2022 5.0 Easy to implement, I created videos and derivative versions of videos that I have been part creating elsewhere, so this - bang got the job done and quite literally all the components you need are at hand, so you don't have to go looking all over the web for clips. You can also import lottie files to add even more animation features. So to recap, I would do a USA version then replicate it and change for other languages and places in the World, changing clips as I need to within the main vid master. Cool. Pros It is easy to pick up how to use. The interface is great so you don't struggle looking for stuff and " how to do"s". I actually got it originally to do some short clips for selling on our websites and ended up creating a full on 4 minute video, with voiceover and using all the clips from within Create Studio itself. When I needed help the team were there for me and helped out instantly, truly a great and fun software. Cons I can't think of anything I don't like, it is genuine fun and highly productive software that speeds up creation dramatically. Reason for choosing CreateStudio I have the other products too, However in practise I only use Create Studio Review Source SF Sam F. General Partner Online Media Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Secret Weapon to Impressive Results" November 18, 2022 5.0 I learned CreateStudio in just a few days and mastered many of the advanced techniques in only a few weeks. CreateStudio is so easy yet powerful, that I have been able to have an idea for a video and then create such video in 1-day. My experience has been awesome! Pros Video has been and remains all the rage and the most effective way to market, educate and monetize. While there is much more advanced video editing software out there, CreateStudio has pioneered a new category of "easy" when it comes to video editing. After just a few short hours of learning the software, something strange happens, and you just take-off like a pro. Cons There are two areas that can use some improvement...1: The rendering time is a common issue with most video editing software, so not really CreateStudio specific, but I think just about everybody will agree that we want faster rendering when exporting the finished product.2. Not sure why, I think that this is some sort of oversight but the name of the currently active project would be nice. No, where on any of the screens of CreateStudio does it display the name or even the file name of the video project currently being edited. Makes it a nightmare when working with many sub-projects or even with versioning. This one baffles my mind how this software doesn't display the currently open video project anywhere. I can't tell you how many dups I have saved with "some\_video\_v1 ... v2 ... etc." because I forgot what file I was working on.

April 26, 2024 5.0 Pros The quality of the software for oe needs to be mentioned. The developer(s) have thought of everything when in the design phase. The things they over looked or that needed tweaking, has been added and or corrected with updates. The features of CS are too many to list here. All in all the software just works and what can be done with the software is truly amazing to me. Cons Only con and its not a bad one, I would like to see more detailed instruction videos. Ones on exporting your project and what to do if this or that happens this is how you get back to where you need to be. I am 54 and just learning to work with computers so I soak in all the knowledge I can. Switched from [iMovie](https://www.capterra.com/p/207187/iMovie/) Needed more features than the ones provided by Apple. Review Source Christian H. Licenciado Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Uno de los mejores programas " June 3, 2021 5.0 En lo personal, es uno de los mejores softwares del mercado, si tienes la posibilidad económica de adquirirlo, no debes dudarlo. Pros El poder crear videos con personajes 3D tipo pixar sin saber de diseño gráfico es una maravilla, pero no solamente puedes tener acceso a este tipo de personajes, también en 2D con distintos aspectos y estos se incrementan mensualmente. El servicio técnico es de primera clase y tienen una comunidad muy activa en Facebook. Un aspecto que también ha incorporado CS son los scroll stoppers. Tienen tutoriales que te ayudarán en Youtube. Cons El precio no es para todos para poder tener acceso a todas las plantillas y personajes. Tienes que practicar bastante para hacer videos de buena calidad. Review Source Arthur C. Business Owner Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great program for both, advanced video creators and for the novice." November 18, 2022 5.0 This product has far exceeded my expectation in allowing me to make videos for my Youtube and Tiktok platforms. Pros Overall the product is easy to use. As with any new product, there is a learning curve. After working with the product for several months I became more efficient at completing each task. I still have much to learn from the many options this product offers. I find that the templates have benefited me the most. Cons I find that editing the pre-formatted templates is a little challenging, but as I use them more I gain a better understanding of how to perform the tasks. Reason for choosing CreateStudio The primary reasons were the all-inclusive package that the product offered, the support of the staff, and the ever-increasing features that are added on a regular basis.

YouTube Content Creator Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A Beautifully & Thoughtfully Designed Software " November 18, 2022 5.0 I have used since other software line Wondershare Filmora.But there are many things this suggests can do much more easily.The level of control available on animation of any asset is really incredible. But this extreme level of options also makes the work slightly more time consumingAll said and done, a beautifully designed software Pros What I like the most...1. GROUPING Option2. Pre animated 3D assets of Pixar quality3. Doodle feature that can be interspersed anywhere and everywhere. (Doodle quality needs improvement though)4. Any and every kind of element can be custom animated5. Finished animated clips can be saved like templates for future use6. New features are continuously being releasedOverall, a very well designed software. Cons 1\. Pro users have extret limited access to assets. However all features are available to Pro users also2. Doodle feature needs a lot of improvement. But ok for basic level use.3. All Pass pricing is very steep Review Source Glendan R. Travel Advisor Leisure, Travel & Tourism Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Been waiting for this." November 7, 2022 5.0 I am now able to create attention getting multi media ads very reasonably. This is extremely important for small business owners. Pros I love virtually everything about this product. It is mostly easy to use, and what I can't figure out for myself, customer support is amazingly quick to respond. Cons With every product there are always things that could be improved. The only thing I know of that could be improved thus far, is the users ability to lengthen the background tracks. I am having a little problem with that, but I know CS will help me get through it. Review Source Esther T. Journalist Broadcast Media Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A powerful tool with great usability " February 4, 2024 5.0 There is no better tool than createStudio that helps to create great videos of any kind.I enjoy using it because it's easy to use,easy to add texts,images, videos and animations to your videos. Pros I like this tool most because it can be used by several members like business people, entrepreneurs,content creators,educators and students. I also love their customer support who are always there 24/7 which is very helpful to the user. Tutorials are also of great help to the users since it guides them how to use the software Cons Only the rendering is a small problem here but it's a minor problem anyway Review Source RA Rufina A. Co-Founder Graphic Design Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Create Studio Is Great" April 24, 2024 5.0 I have no complaints about this software, at first it a little difficult to make the characters do certain things, like walking for instance, that was my problem, but between CS support team and our amazing FB page, I have mastered that area and so much more. The Tutorials are amazing from support and other users. Pros I love the ease of using this software, it has everything you need and so much more. I love that I can do work on other software and bring it into CreateStudio to complete what I'm look for that the other program may lack. Cons I can't say that there is anything I really dislike about this program, but a few more 3D characters would make it PERFECT! Reason for choosing CreateStudio I was pretty satisfied with Toonly so I wasn't looking for any other products Switched from [Toonly](https://www.capterra.com/p/205553/Toonly/) Once CS upgraded to lip sync, it was very easy to switch, CS has loads more features. Review Source Jennifer E. Consultant Management Consulting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great Animation software that continues to improve." April 25, 2024 5.0 After testing a few of the market leading applications I found that Create Studio suited my needs best. Over 2 years later I am very happy with Create Studio because they continue to improve the inbuilt functions. Pros Lots of 3D Characters + other characters Options for some customisation of characters Plenty of assets available within the video editor Built in templates and lightening builder can significantly speed up process Text to voice built in Lip sync built in Tutorials available You don't need to be experienced in video animation to use Developers listen to user feedback and continue to improve Great uster community to share how to knowledge Cons The characters are pre-built and there are some options for customisation of some 3D characters but it is not a fully customisable animation program. Alternatives considered [Toonly](https://www.capterra.com/p/205553/Toonly/)[Renderforest](https://www.capterra.com/p/141544/Renderforest/) Reason for choosing CreateStudio Create Sudio had the 3D characters that were not in Toonly + a much higher level of variety and customisation that Renderforest. Review Source AD Arnie D. Owner Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Amazing animation software." April 25, 2024 5.0 My experience has been stellar. I have been using CreateStudio since they first came on the market in 2020. There customer service is by far the best of anything app or software I have ever used. The listen to their customers and have built an amazing animation suite that is second to none. It is constantly improving and growing. Pros CreateStudio does not have a steep learning curve, so you can be up and creating videos in no time but in a short while you can master the program. Cons There are some minor things I wish the program had at this point like certain actions and options; but the great thing is it's always being improved and new assets and options are continuously added.

Chiefw Animation Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A dream world of video production" November 1, 2022 5.0 Time Savings. I can get projects done in at least half the time versus using multiple video editing resources. It's all in one here! Pros The greatest thing about this software is that a combines animation with video. I have waited years for a product like this to come on the market. I am thrilled with it! Cons Tiny scrolling bars. I am disabled and it is hard to Target in on the bars. Sometimes I spend up to 30 seconds being able to attach the arrow to the bar. I contacted support about this. And they said they would take it under consideration to expand the width of the bars on a future update. You have to respect that! Review Source Eric Y. CEO Broadcast Media Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "It makes making video so much easier and fun" February 2, 2024 5.0 Pros Create Studio can make video just by changing the template to start with. That's an amazing experience. There are tones of apps out there that do so but not in a complete way. CC outstands those Cons The characters are still less and variety of actions are yet limited, but I will like to grow with the team. Reason for choosing CreateStudio If a software is easy to use and to start with, it wins the heart of the user.

The timeline is also amazing. It allows me to create intro and outro videos for my clients' YouTube channel. And of course, I love the music library and the integration of pixabay and pexels. It save me a lot of time in searching photos and videos.

Analyst Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Perfect Animation up for grabs" November 18, 2022 5.0 I have 2 other softwares to do my edit work and if i want quality, i would turn towards CreateStudio and it never fails to deliver Pros I have been using this software for more than 2 years now. The first impression was how im going to work on this software as it looked bit difficult and gives an impression of only for iOS user :)But as i started to use it over and over, i liked the feature and the quality of templates provided and the smoothness in which the animations are made.I would definitely recommend this software for any content creator Cons Very less templates been provided for LTD users and that is a pain point. They should provide the LTD for longtime users and better price, as i feel the last time they did come up with high price.

Digital Creator Online Media Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for content creation and short videos" November 18, 2022 5.0 It's great for what it is - which is a 'creation studio'. i.e. Using it for its content, then adapting it for your needs. Just like all video editing software, there are shortcuts and tricks that need to be learned - that can take a bit of fiddling around - but it's very flexible. Pros I love the templates and the comprehensive editing capabilities. Use the software mostly for promo videos - where I can take a template and adapt to my needs.I also very much appreciate that the team are continuously developing the package with new features and enhancements. Cons As previously noted, my only request is for a wider variety of cartoon characters - rather than the seemingly, US centric ones that are mostly featured. Reason for choosing CreateStudio Content - and the ease of editing complex scenes. Review Source GP Gennaro P.
