Easy and professional looking

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: Good, i've made a handful of videos with them. I had a problem with the latest, but it was handled by CS and fixed by the end of the day.

Pros:

It's pretty simple to use, there's plenty to choose from and the results look professional. The price point has crept up a little, but as a one off from time to time, it's worth keeping your intros and explainers fresh. Also, i'm yet to come across another person in the wild who has used the same template as me, and i've made a handful now. It's easy to cancel your subscription without jumping through hoops and private e-mails like a lot of retail companies that offer subscription services.

Cons:

It can be a little slow and eat your memory. And on subscriptions, if you've got a one off tier, you may as well make it a one off payment rather than subscription service. Subscriptions when you don't want one will put people off if they're not familiar with the ease of cancelling.

Hi Russ, thank you for your feedback. Everything is rendered in the cloud, and it's surprising that it can eat up your computer's memory.

The best video software ever!

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: The point of videobolt to me is SAVING TIME. I have no time to edit videos, and this is so important.

Pros:

It saves me a lot of time and the graphics are awesome! In just a few clics you get an attractive personalized video!

Cons:

The price (being in Argentina) is not affordable to me. I'd love to get a yearly plan but I simply can't afford it. So I opt to pay per video now.

MP4's To Big To Upload

1.0 3 years ago

Pros:

There isn't a lot of things that I liked about this software, however the few I did like are as follows: I liked being able to edit colors and fonts. I liked the variety of animations available. It was entertaining scroll through them all.

Cons:

I would like the option of editing how big the file will be afterwards. Along the lines of a video trim or something. Because I was only able to use 1 animation logo on social media because the rest were way to big! I was never able to put a finished product on my business website. I'm disappointed about that. It is pointless to keep considering I can't use the finished work.

Rarely Used

Comments: It's cool, but not something my business needs

Pros:

It's fun to play with and can go down a rabbit hole for hours creating videos

Cons:

I very rarely use it. The cost of the product could have been used to hire a graphic artist instead

Comments: when you look for videos not every provider has eveything. I have software with videos intros but didn't have what i was looking to do at the moment and videobolt had it

Pros:

I was looking for a specific video presentation template to deploy fast and found it here

Cons:

This is a great product to be used with credits and not necessarily by a monthly membership

Videobolt is best in class for strong video openers and closers

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: Videobolt software helped me win a corporate video contest due to its overall energetic openers and closers that appealed and impressed senior leadership within my organization. I would certainly and have recommended Videobolt to colleagues, friends, and family.

Pros:

Best features of this program definitely would be its massive catalog that groups like projects user interfaces together making it easy to navigate and locate the appropriate product. Also the timing for opening and closing projects are not drawn out to bore the viewer, all options are appealing to any social media interface. Finally the ability to connect projects together in Premier Pro and DaVinci softwares seamlessly was the top reason I purchased Videobolt.

Cons:

The only item that was good to have but not usable to me personally was the large amount of Instagram formatted options. These being pre-formatted for the single platform basically was useless for my needs although I liked the content they had. Recommendation would be for Videobolt to make projects from to all platform types that can be chosen before rendering. Also I would like the ability to edit and already payed for project instead of repurchasing it.

I'm a fan

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: My experience was that it was fun, very handy and added a lot of value to my online presence and how I share my music.

Pros:

I love that I can make these videos without having to know how to make videos like this....basically if that makes sense. I make music so I do not know Adobe and I don't want to rely on fiverr which is very limited. I just want to make great visualizer videos for my own music

Cons:

There are really no cons. I just wish there was a bit more flexibility with certain templates when it comes to having a track title and author or not, sizing those elements and the ability to add a logo. Most had what I wanted a few had some limitations.

Pros:

Videobolt makes it easy to create amazing, short intro videos or logo reveals. Our videos always look professional & innovative. I couldn't get a great final product without this. It is simple to use & easy to customize. There are a lot of choices for video templates as well.

Cons:

Great value for beginners

4.0 4 years ago

Comments: I really enjoying making videos, it’s easy to use and customize and the fact that it’s mostly set is good for me because I don’t want to spend my entire day on making a one minute video. It works for those with limited time to work in this side of the business.

Pros:

I like the many options for customizable videos and templates. They are ready to use and very easy to customize.

Cons:

The options could feel limiting if you have a ton of different products. Some of the videos are really similar to each other. But still an overall good value.

Good site for templates

Pros:

I liked the video bolt because there you can easily and quickly edit templates. As well as being a template creator, I enjoyed customizing my templates so that clients would be clear and easy to customize. The template library is constantly updated with new and unique projects.

Cons:

I cannot single out any special disadvantages. The library is constantly updated, projects are getting better and better quality. no downsides

Title Cards Made Easy

5.0 4 years ago

Pros:

For those who know how to create motion graphics, you're aware of how long it can sometimes take to render your finished product -- whether you're starting from scratch or using a template you found online. If you need something quick and easy with light customization, this is the software to use. We've done a ton of animations and title cards with Videobolt -- sometimes as scratch graphics and other times as final products. It's so easy to use and I would highly recommend it.

Cons:

Occasionally there is an impulse to go back to the well and use a template used previously, which feels repetitious. There's not an endless supply of choices on Videobolt, so this is either a comment on my own pickiness or their need to continue adding to their asset library (which seems to happen in drips and drabs). The content they do add is GREAT, but the amount is the only area where they feel lacking.

Videobolt Response

Dear Ryan, thank you for the feedback. We will continue to work on increasing the number of templates on the site.

Marizelle De Beer

Comments: Videobolt is our go-to. Whenever we need intro's, Outro's or anything video basically, we only use Videobolt.

Pros:

I like the variety of designs that I can choose from - I always find what I need. And it is so easy and quick to use - I also love the fact that you can preview it before you buy it.

Cons:

We have a very long tagline... and sometimes the font size comes out really small because of that. So I would have like to have more space for the tagline, or an option to make it bigger as well as our logo.

Videobolt Response

Hi Marizelle, thank you for the feedback. When the tagline is very long, the best way is to divide it into two rows - just with simple enter when you insert text in editor.

Awful Customer Service

2.0 5 years ago

Comments: They have really poor customer service skills. I filed a complaint about the fact that I wasn't able to access my billing and account info prior to my subscription renewal - so couldn't see when my next billing date was, let alone cancel the subscription. I sent video evidence of the issue and they blamed me for not getting in touch sooner, in order to inform them of the issue and cancel my subscription in time!

Pros:

Used mainly for logo's Cons: They charged me even though I did not want to continue the subscription.

Cons:

That they don't care about their customers. I had to file a complaint against them and I'm still waiting for a resolution.

Easy to use but slow and limited

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: Videobolt does the job quite well, but it's slightly limited in some regards.

Pros:

Videobolt is an easy and quick solution to create short intro/outro clips for your videos or social media. It's quite simple to use and there's hardly any learning curve. The variety of templates is also good, though probably not the best.

Cons:

My view is that it's quite limited regarding functionalities and customisation. Also, I believe it's a little slow rendering the short clips.

Pros:

As someone with not that much money to spend, it is a bit costly. Not something for weekly use, but for a one time video render, like an intro.
