Really sleek app for making videos

5.0 5 months ago

Pros:

Firstly I bought createstudio on lifetime offer. I also use camtasia but CS has many cool features the camtasia doesn't. There is a lot that I haven't even fully explored CS yet but there is a youtube channel and facebook group for extra support and the support team are VERY responsive

Cons:

I havent fully explored the entire app yet but at the moment it looks fantastic for what they offer

Secret Weapon to Impressive Results

5.0 4 months ago

Comments: 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.

CreateStudio, a very complete tool with great usability, to design and create videos very quickly.

5.0 2 months ago New

Comments: 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.

is it worth it?

3.0 4 months ago

Comments: First thing, do not ask for help, just go straight to their help page, as this is the only help you will get with CSPro. if you need or desire to ask questions, then you are directed to groups. they do not add characters and templates each month as they state.

Pros:

it is a nice program, and they do add new features to it, but what makes them stand out above the rest is its All Access PASS.

Cons:

their lack of professionalism is what caused me to retreat from their program, and they charge double what they are worth. capitalism at its best here folks. they have yet to of brought ALL characters from their old version to the new Pro version.

CreateStudio is the finest video editing software usable!.

5.0 last month New

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

Cons:

Nothing at all.. It's fantastic! CS Pro is an excellent video editing software.

Well worth purchasing

5.0 5 months ago

Comments: 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.

CreateStudio is the best video software out there!

5.0 8 months ago

Comments: Create Studio is the best video creation software for me that I use day by day! You can create everything you can imagine: motion graphics, text animations, 2D and 3D character animations, doodle videos... so so much more, your imagination is the limit! I am exploring every day the new CSPro. I find CSPro more developed in complexity but much easier to create faster and better videos. Once I'll get to know all the features and be able to move around them like I did in the previous CS I'll have a very powerful CSPro and I'll create videos much more easily and more professional videos! I advise everyone who comes across CreateStudio just to try it 30 days risk-free (is what I did until I found the good software I needed and the ones I loved I kept) so don't just believe me, go and try it 100% risk-free! They do refund you 100% of your investment if you don't like it, but I have no doubt you WILL LOVE IT! I really want to mention the team behind the scenes and all the support team: they are always there for us users, all the time without exceptions!
They are constantly working on improvement and periodically release new updates & new features! They are the best software support team!
I just LOVE CreateStudio!

Pros:

I love everything inside Create Studio, just try it and convince yourself, you have nothing to loose! They give you a full refund if you decide is not for you no questions asked!

Cons:

There is nothing to like less in Create Studio! You'll just LOVE IT!

Conveniently user-friendly

5.0 4 months ago

Pros:

I love the zoom and pan, it gives me freedom to highlight my points in my explainer videos. 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.

Cons:

The best features requires a subscription

Great for editing and 3D videos

5.0 2 months ago New

Comments: the facility to work with 2D and 3D with hardly any previous notions. it is very intuitive.

Pros:

It is a very simple and useful program for editing videos. In my case it is used for editing corporate videos. You can also work in 3D, which allows you to design any piece of your own to incorporate it into your videos.

Cons:

It's not very cheap but it definitely works

Awesome Software for Video Creation

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: It's been really fun to work with Create Studio and the support has been really great. I have been able to create videos that have been really appreciated very well.

Pros:

The almost all-in-one bundle - animation, editing, adding in media, direct integration with Pixabay and Pexels and audio library. The really awesome 3D Characters. And the ease of use.

Cons:

Don't have the ability to cut clips on timeline. Sometimes the timeline goes awry and hard to tell what you are working with.

A worthy option.

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: 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

Found it by accident, couldn't live without it now

5.0 4 months ago

Comments: 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.

I use Create Studio to do everything from clips to full on videos. Plus.... it is real fun to use.

5.0 4 months ago

Comments: 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.

Amazing functionality for a great price

5.0 5 months ago

Comments: There is a lot packed in to one program and the learning curve is relatively low. You can create very professional animations for yourself or clients. There are so many things to do in the software, your creativity would have no bounds. All my clients are wowed by the results.

Pros:

Lots of functionality and animation options. The characters are high quality in esthetics and movement. There is a lot of choice of templates and done-for-you scenes making this a great choice for the beginner to pro-user. They have stellar customer service and are always updating the characters, scenes and general functions and options available.

Cons:

There is really nothing I don't like about the program. Any issues that come up are dealt with in a timely manner.

The BEST - really!

5.0 5 months ago

Comments: It's been amazing, and family and friends always hear how much I love making videos with CSPro. Couldn't recommend more highly

Pros:

The ease of use for someone who hadn't used this kind of software before.The characters and assets!The transitions (which they just provided more of and are super simple to use!).The support!The developers, who are visible, responsive, and feel like you've known them for forever :)

Cons:

Really, can't think of any....except when migrating to CSPro from CS all the characters haven't been updated and I'm missing a few of them. But worth the wait!
