Rocketium Reviews

Pros
I use the free version, but I also tested the paid version (which, of course, gives you a lot more to play with). The free version, although limited, is still pretty good to help you make a great looking video, if you don't mind the Rocketium logo at the end. I like the fact that they have free photos and clips inside the app, which you can insert into your videos. Of course, you can also use your own. It's easy to use and anybody can learn it quickly enough.

Cons
The Rocketium logo at the end, but that's the price of free :). You can't do a lot of things with the free option, but you can do enough.

Pros
The ease of use - Rocketium is organized in a similar fashion to presentation software such as Google Slides or Powerpoint. It just makes it 10x by empowering everyone with the brain and hands of a designer.

Cons
Just the ability to reorder and sort the captions when creating the slides.

Pros
Software was basic at best, we used it for about a month but it wasn’t what was promised.

Cons
When we tried to cancel, they would not let us and then after billing for another month, they refused to offer a refund. Now have to go through VISA to attempt a chargeback. The whole time I was asking for a refund they CSR kept asking me to give feedback on what features I didn’t like. It was insane.

Pros
I love how flexible Rocketium is to create the right kind of videos for your needs. I also love their templates which can often be enough to simply swap out images and text for your own. I've been using Rocketium for over a year, and don't have any complaints. The service has improved over that time. They decreased load and render times (faster), and have added more content to fit a wider array of video styles.

Cons
The biggest con I've found is the music selection. While adequate, there's not enough high-quality original music to wow me. I often upload my own music from AudioJungle, so it's not a deal killer, but would love some extra TLC put towards acquiring new music. That said, often these videos end up on social media where they are muted by default, and users don't actually bother to turn the sound on anyway.

Pros
There’s stock quality videos available for free within the app, meaning you can quickly build professional looking videos with ease. This is a standout feature in this category. If you need to create cheap but good social video ads, I recommend this tool.

Cons
Mobile app is a good idea but needs a fair bit of work.

Pros
I love using rocketium !! They made the complex process of creating Videos in a matter of few minutes. I used to create videos using After Effects which used to take a really long time to create a single video but after using rocketium . I can pump out many videos in a matter of minutes. Thak you so much rocketium team.

Cons
I would never say this as a con but there are only a few templates in the basket but I strongly believe many templates are being baked and will be served hot and fresh soon to the rocketium customers.

Pros
The ease of use is what I love about Rocketium. The video templates cater to my chosen industry, and that’s a huge help for us because time is saved for customization not searching blindly in the age of information overwhelm.

Cons
Customization is limited for different templates but anyways, it's way better than a boring video that had no value in it.

Pros
I love Rocketium! If you want to make cool social videos but lack the video editing skills, this is the tool for you. Simply add images/video and add your captions and their software will create great looking social videos for you. Comes with lots fo templates as well as free images, video and music clips you can use for free.

Cons
In order to make it very easy to use, you have limits on how you can much you can change the templates

Pros
Being a guy with no prior experience in making slideshows and videos, Rocketium made it feel like a piece of cake. With easy to use interface, I can make as many changes as required. And a lot to of room to play with.

Cons
I think the load time for saving changes is bit lengthy.

Pros
Rocketium provides templates in several categories. I can choose a template and customize to my niche. Or you can start from scratch. With templates, you can create a video quickly if time is a concern.

Cons
I was hoping that Rocketium can create new categories for the templates. They don't really have a lot of niches. The other thing is that I can only create one type of video. If you want explainer type or animated videos, Rocketium is not for you.

Pros
It's a straightforward UI that allows you to get your video up and out there fast. I like that it allows switching between slides and customizing very efficient, where some others are a bit clunky. It renders video fast compared to some others, as well, though it's nominal. The ability to add voice to the videos is a great feature too. Adding images and music is simple and easy.

Cons
I can't get past the feel of their templates. It's just ... a bit older feeling. Slightly outdated ... can't put my finger on it, but it just doesn't have the modern look that is mostly expected. But the bottom-line is ... get your content out there and this does that.

Pros
Favourite thing about Rocketium is the ease of use. Adding images simply overlaying it with text has helped me make more than 50 videos a month for Sportskeeda's Facebook channel.

Cons
I want the most are the labels/tags/folder system. This would help me categorize my content in a better way.

Pros
I really like how they are focusing on adding video templates for different industries and occasions. As someone who helps a news agency and helps non-profits, I’m pleased that they've added news and non-profit video templates.

Cons
The video editing process could be improved. I’m not a big fan of their two-step video editing process.

Pros
Rocketium simplifies making promotional videos, enabling movies such as myself the ability to create quality products. It is literally a drag and drop operation of photos or videos coupled with typing in a desired message or caption. It offers the ability to use a premed template or design your own content. Finally, Rocketium enhances the product buy providing royalty free music to include as part of the video created.

Cons
The templates are wonderful; however, the templates do not allow the user to modify the template for personal preferences. For example, if the template requires each frame to have wording as part of the frame, one cannot proceed until words have been added. Sometimes, I would just like to have a graphic without any added inclusion.

Pros
Rocketium helps me convert my written content into very interesting videos. I can add images, clips, and music to my content and spice it up. It has helped me produce some fun and quality content which gets much more reach and clicks than just a written blog. Having no designing and video editing background, the UI was pretty simple and I was good to go from minute 1. The set themes pretty much cover all the applications and I can customize them even further. Love the app! It's made my life much easier.

Pros
I like that their pre-made templates don't look like everyone else's, and once you get into them, they are pretty interchangeable.

Cons
It's hard to customize anything. You have to trial and error your way through if you need to move a text box, for instance. These are great for on the go, quick stuff, but for more options, this isn't the tool.

Pros
Rocketium is a good product for creating videos from text and using video to teach. The technology it uses makes you look really good, because it has lots of moving parts that make it seem you spent hours on the video. It also has plenty of great templates I made some videos and everyone loved them. It made me look really good! It has built in music and tips about how to make your videos look good. For the marketer who doesn't have a lot of time to mess around, its a great tool and I recommend it.

Cons
The user interface could be a little smoother. It has a lot of power though, so that is the trade off.

Pros
The provide a ton of useful templates for creating videos for social media. Lets you resize and reformat content for every platform (vertical, landscape, square, Facebook ad), which is really dope. Can import your blog content and drop it in your video in minutes. The new version of the platform is easier to use.

Cons
The old version of the platform was buggy and sometimes video exports would look weird but a new version of the platform was just released.

Pros
If you need to put together a video primarily with text and stock footage then this is the best tool. It's extremely easy for me to throw together a video that's based entirely on text. The new interface they just released makes it even easier to use and I highly recommend it for making simple text-based​ videos. They're basic but they can communicate a good message if done well. Rocketium gives you the tools to do it well but it's really up to the user to make it great or mess it up.

Cons
The timings function with the new updates is extremely difficult to use. I have to actually do math! Yuck! That's all I don't like about the new update.

I like the ease of adding team members. There's also a two tau real and "Academy" which is nice for new users.

Cons
Making videos is always going to take time and the quality will depend on the talent of the user. Alas.

Pros
Multiple templates and asset library fast rendering and ability to ad our own branding, videos and photos easy way to create the right size video for facebook snapchat and instagram love the idea of creating Buzzfeed like videos for my clients and for our own social media super easy interface and easy to use features

Cons
Only 20 videos a moth for the professional paid tear limited length on videos for the professional paid tear

Pros
This is an easy way for a solopreneur like me who lacks the time, equipment, and desire to be on video for my customers. I still have a way to make videos that are of high quality for social media marketing purposes. I liked the free plan so much I upgraded to a paid version with a lifetime membership through AppSumo. It's better than the lowest tier priced plan, but offers less monthly videos than the business plan.

Cons
There could be some improvements to the user interface and user experience - and better stock videos added to the library compared to the competition. It's still easy to get things done, and decent stock content... it just could be better overall.

Pros
Encountered Rocketium as an Appsumo Customer and have been pleasured to this service for creating social media videos for our facebook page.

Cons
I still they have a long way in adding many features to become one of the best video-making tools, Starting from their pre-made templates.

Pros
Having some free stock footage options helps make this software really be valuable. For the same price you'd pay for these songs/clips you're getting the ability to edit. Not as full fledged as professional software, but can give a pro look to those creative who lack the training on expensive software.

Cons
Editing isn't as fine tuned as I like, but still a lot of good things.
