Once I understood the same I was able to professional animated videos. The videos made looked like the ones created by an experienced professional. ----- ### ""Versatile and customizable"" — 4.0/5 > **Tinashe** | *7 October 2023* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Allowed us to create dynamic and visually attractive presentations. It offers a wide range of animations, transitions, and effects that brought our content to life and made it more engaging for our audience. > > **Cons**: While Powtoon offers a decent library of templates, the selection is not as extensive compared to some other presentation tools. This limits our options, especially that we often use highly specialized and niche templates specific to our themes and messages. > > Overall we have come to find this software a valuable tool for creating engaging and visually appealing presentations, and this is mostly because we value that it brings ease of use, flexibility, and a wide range of application options to our creative arsenal. ----- ### "Attention grabbing videos" — 5.0/5 > **Linda** | *22 February 2020* | Primary/Secondary Education | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The videos that I've made to teach my students was definitely more appealing than a regular power point. > > **Cons**: It is very pricey to buy. The free version is very limited. You can only make three minute videos with the free version. > > Creating short videos helped me to teach many lessons. ----- ### "Indispensable" — 5.0/5 > **Joanne** | *6 April 2023* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I've used Powtoon since 2014. It's gotten better because they're always keen on getting feedback and making the product better, and listening to what we want in the software. They have good customer service so problem solving is quick. You can put your videos in folders, which helps when you have so many. I have a teacher package so cheap. You can also make powerpoint/slide shows. > > **Cons**: Branding in corner of film and at end, but I get a cheaper deal because of this . Business deals don't have the branding. > > I don't like being on camera and this solves that by making entertaining informational educational videos. They're all stored on Powtoon so don't have to store them on my computer. ----- ### "Overall satisfied" — 4.0/5 > **Audrey** | *27 December 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: My favorite feature in this application is really the screen recording. In addition, you can add your avatar by taking your camera from your computer and it will show you in a circle with your video and you can give relevant content to your users while browsing your product (for us it's a web application ). It is a perfect tool for making training and explanatory videos. I also like the fact that there are many templates that allow me to make videos in just a few minutes and quite easily. > > **Cons**: I had some difficulties with the platform. First of all, I bought the pro+ plan for our company and when I wanted to make a Christmas video, the songs were not available to add to my video, because it mentioned that it was only for those who had the pro plan. I mentioned the issue to support and two weeks later I still haven't heard from them. > > In sum, I am quite satisfied with the tool despite some difficulties when creating my videos. I recommend to those who are going to buy this tool to listen carefully to the training videos that are made available to users. This will save a lot of time and not lose your work as it happened to me several times. ----- Page: 1 / 17\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/330674/powtoon?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/330674/powtoon) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
