Pros and cons

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.
Been using CreateStudio from the day it was launched. I've seen their growth and improvements to this video editor along with the amazing technology they have integrated over time.
I love the ease of use, the clear and intuitive interface, and the great asset library that comes with the All-Access-Pass subscription.
If you decide to play around and use a lot of components in the working area, it lags very bad.
It’s still missing a few simple design features and feels “clunky at times” and difficult to combine projects.
Lastly, hate that you must email them to move your license from one computer to another. Other companies allow you to log into your account and change it instead, this way you're not waiting on them.

Presentation Video in Just Few Minutes

Reviewed 6 months ago

The software is awesome for who want to create video quickly and professionally.

Pros

Smooth Animating any object. Scene creation, 3D characters and lots more... Best video creation software.

Cons

Only Less transaction option. You can't change color separately in paragraph, if you want to highlight particular text in sentences or paragraph, you can do it, Whole text(sentance or paragraph) color will change.

Great desktop animation software

Reviewed 6 months ago
Pros

Prebuild templates and animation effect that's what I like most about Createstudio.With their assets, you can create great animation video in just a few minutes, and that what make CreateStudio stand out, at least as desktop software. Most "template-based" animation solutions are SAAS, but createstudio is a desktop software, that's means you can use it without an internet connection.Also, their 3D character asset quality is soo good.Oh one more thing, createstudio doesn't need crazy computer specs.

Cons

Createstudio is not professional animation software so don't expect you can create complex animation, which is fine for me. I know it's not intended as a video editor, but createstudio has some tools that are really useful for a video editing project, unfortunately, their GUI is kinda weird to use for video editing. So basically createstudio is best for one use only, which is create animation videos.

Pros

The finest video creation software for me that I use every day is create studio.Motion graphics, 2D and 3D character animations, word animations, doodle films and many other things are all possible to create. I understand that CSPro is more difficult but also makes it much simpler to produce faster and higher quality videos

Fantastic editing software with an even better price point!

Reviewed 6 months ago

I love that I can make engaging videos and embed them in my presentations easily. People like seeing what I will create next. I like having the tools readily available for doing effects to video without having to watch a tutorial. They make it easy.

Pros

I love the fact that CreateStudio is ready out of the gate and the learning curve is not very steep. A little bit of computer knowledge and you can create videos and animations right away. The lifetime deal is the way to go and it seems to encompass 90-95% of the features. The additional packs I purchased like effects are well worth it.

Cons

I dislike the upsells when going through the checkout process. It always seemed like a "wait there's more" upsell showing up on the next screen. I understand this is how the generate additional revenue but I still would have supported the software knowing this at the beginning of my "add to cart" experience.

A worthy option.

Reviewed 2 years ago

With easy navigation, impressive features, and ready-to go templates, creating videos with the right graphics won't have to be a chore.

Pros

Availability of features, access, ease of use, voice to text, and animated graphics.

Cons

This software works best with shorter videos. They lag when they get too long. Also, purchasing the software does not automatically grant you the all-access pass. You will have to buy that separately

Not just for Advertising

Covid 19 is challenging many organizations to find new and creative ways to reach out to communities and clients. CreateStudio not only offers the software to produce quality, engaging videos, but also in a format for business and social content contributers with small budgets and limited experience the chance to compete in a media savvy world.

Pros

I have no training for using the CreateStudio software other than a couple of previous programs I purchased for video making. Most of what I know comes from Youtube and product training videos. I am a pastor trying to offer quality pre-recorded worship videos. When CreateStudio was offered, I added it to another toon creating program I had begun using to create stories for our young and young at...

Cons

CreateStudio regularly adds features and so fixes may be in the works as I write this. Lipsync would be awesome. Right now characters have talking ability, but sometimes there is a noticible difference between mouth movenents and words. It would be nice to sync human voices. Right now I record separately, approximate the talking movements and then use a second program to add my voice. It would be great to have Idle and talk. Having a character repeat the same movement when talking can become too busy. I recognize I use the program differently, and so, characters may talk more, but I believe this addition would be helpful to others.

Great Value From a Dedicated Team

Reviewed 3 years ago

Create Studio is fun to use. The tutorials are very helpful in showing how to perform the many useful functions. The hard part is remembering to plan out your video before jumping in to start creating.

Pros

Create Studio is a video creation software, and there are many of them available today. One of the things that set it apart from others is the quality combination of 2D and 3D animated graphics. The controls allow for tremendous flexibility to animate objects and characters. A high-end program like Create Studio has tools that need to be learned and practiced, but the results are the ability to...

Cons

The best value for someone who creates many videos is the All Access Pass, which offers a continuous monthly flow of new characters, objects, and templates. However, a person who has a limited budget or doesn't constantly make videos would not avail themselves of this and would have available only the assets that come with their original purchase. My opinion is that many of these people may consider the quantity and variety of included assets to be too limited.

Awesome animation with create-studio!

Reviewed 6 months ago

Nice I would recommend people who want to learn and build some cool animation for educating or entertaining. It is awesome!

Pros

I am an educator and making animation is a bit time-consuming and cumbersome but with createstudio it can be done smoothly by dragging and dropping characters and all, so have to spend time only for creative thinking.

Cons

Sometimes it hangs between and yes rendering takes quite a time always.

A dream world of video production

Reviewed 7 months ago

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!

A versatile and well-integrated media creation tool for the money others charge for a single tool.

Reviewed 7 months ago

The CreateStudio has been our best investment. We had invested in other animation, doodling, text-to-speech, video editing, titling, and other media software, which we don't use anymore since we now use CreateStudio as our main application to perform the same tasks faster and better integrated, and the final products look far superior.

Pros

Powerful use of masking and grouping of media to be creative. An increasing number of special effects and tools make CreateStudio Pro a go-to software that can handle diverse media intakes. Super handsome 3D animaiton characters and assets and special video effects provide a tool to create simple ads for lengthy instructional videos without breaking a sweat.

Cons

Super easy to use and get started. However, once you are in the zone, the software could use more keyboard equivalents and streamlined tools for power users.

My Personal Opinions of the Features and Capabilities of the CreateStudio Software Tool

Reviewed 6 months ago

I am just starting out learning the ins and outs of 3D video creation and editing. I am a brand new user of this software tool and I LOVE IT !! It has given me the ability (and more importantly, the confidence) to believe that I can actually do it.

Pros

The ease and speed at which I can get from "a thought" to something that I can use to show to others to discuss and further develop the video creation.

Cons

The thing that I like least about this software is the inability to import and animate 3D characters that are created by third party developers. (I understand the depth and complexity of offering this capability. I am just saying that if it was possible .. there would be no stopping you guys !!)What the developers at CreateStudio have done with their software tool is absolutely impressive and amazing. However, I feel that I am seriously limited in what I have to work with, with respect to 3D characters .. both human and animal. If the team at CreateStudio could come up with a way to be compatible with some of the other 3D character developers out in the market, then that CS would be KING !!

Create Studio - a good buy?

Reviewed 3 years ago

As someone who has been using editor software for many years now, I found Create Studio to be an excellent addition to what I already have. Much of the stuff I make can be done with Create Studio so has already made a positive difference to my workflow.

Pros

The software is easy to start using. Drag and drop, scale and you have your video basics done. There are loads of elements and characters you can use, which are added to each month. It's a good idea to have the "All Access Club" membership to be able to use all the assets which are offered. It is not a must, as you can import any kind of asset you may have and Create Studio stuff can be bought separately.

Cons

Not much to say here, as the Create Studio people correct or add things on a regular basis.

CreateStudio by Vidello

Reviewed 2 years ago

Overall experience with the create studio to date is that we are at the top with lots of appreciation from our customers for great quality videos with some low-end budget they ever imagined.

Pros

The best part about the software is that it comes with a desktop version where we can seamlessly work and save our projects. The features of the software are so advanced but very simple to understand and the tutorials are really awesome and so anyone can learn and start getting the videos done. The other best part is that they are on a curve of continuous improvement of the platform so no worries in both ways either to lose the product support or the new updates forever. The packages they launch on a frequent basis are incredible and one-time priced so you got an upper hand in getting much more advanced features included with minimal investment.

Cons

The only drawback I see and it's not major is updating the desktop app where we need to check if it is the latest or we need to update it manually if it doesn't happen automatically once we log in.
