Pros

As reality is like this, the software is one of the best solutions to make nice, creative, up-to-date presentations for school, ads, business information.

Rossella D.

teacher

They keep finding ways to make it faster and easy to make explainer videos. They have an outstanding library of tools and elements you can use to really create outstanding videos.

Tara A.

Online Business Manager

It is extremely easy to use and allows me to create amazing videos and presentations for my business. The ready-made templates are very helpful and allow me to create videos that pop.

Cons

My biggest complaint (as I mentioned above in Cons) is that the tools are corrupted by the upsell items for Pro. Just don't show me Pro+ features if I've already paid for Pro.

Cleo H.

Designer

Somewhat exporting function is bit difficult to user. And some features are difficult to understand.
