There are cases where dragging and dropping lots of photos into the template is more work than it's worth, although it could be much better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Using Simplified, creating and sharing polished texts on social media is a snap. The fact that the list of social networks may be sorted in many ways makes it easy to target the proper people with marketing campaigns. I can keep up a steady social media presence with the use of the automated capabilities that let me to post any campaign to your items on sites like Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter. It facilitates teamwork and is utilized by all members of our organization, including those involved in sales and marketing. We aren't making use of all the cool features just yet.

The part I've liked least is the high price of the tool, especially for startups. There should be a plan to pay per use or something similar to avoid continuous expenses, even when your capacity to produce videos is very limited. As a startup, departments are not defined for creating videos - very often, we make videos as needed and do it with the current staff, shifting priorities at the moment to produce them.

There is an important issue with the avatars: the current avatars do not blink - even in version 3. This is very noticeable in some long scenes. It should be fixed soon to improve the naturalness of the videos. Also, shoul be great to have the possibility to change the voice tone not only the type. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are using Synthesia to create tool navigation videos to explain a few features and address some recurring issues from our customers. The main idea behind our subscription is to create videos to help our product become even more self-service and less dependent on human interaction, especially for common doubts or questions. Of course, we understand that this is not the only option, so we are also investing in UX, UI, UX Writing and automated support using AI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I guess the only drawback for me is that I don't like the voice choices. It needs to sound more realistic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DialMyCalls helps me with contacting parents. Msot parents are working during the day and calling them at work does not foster a good relationship. So I like that I can schedule the calls and this way parents can get the message in the evening while tthier child is at home and they can address the problem with them on the spot.

Google Drive can feel messy at times, especially when there are many shared files. Also, it’s harder to use offline if I don't have a good internet connection. And the upload and download speeds can be slow, especially with larger files Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Google Workspace solves several problems for me as a student. It allows me to easily collaborate with classmates on group projects using Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides, all in real-time. The integration of Gmail and Google Calendar helps me stay organized and on top of deadlines. I can access my files from any device, which is super helpful when I need to work from different places. Overall, it streamlines my academic tasks and keeps everything in one place, making my work more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside to Clearstream is that using an emoji costs more credits. However, I'm fairly confident we knew that from the beginning. Clearstream is transparent about costs and what features are available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have unique gathering rhythms at our church. We meet in a large group format every other week and meet in homes for small groups on the off weeks. Before Clearstream, people felt they were unsure which weekends we were meeting. This allows us to send out updates weekly to let people know where we are meeting as well as links to resources they can use for their small groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn't anything to dislike, but there is always a scope for improvement, and that is what I would like to share.

Presenting to MS Teams option is helpful, but it would be great if other remote classroom tools, such as Zoom, etc. could be included. In the future, having a direct link and sync option with the LMS, such as D2L Brightspace, will also be extremely helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mentimeter gives a voice to students who would otherwise be reluctant to share their thoughts. It benefits me immensely as my courses are mostly taken by international students in synchronous remote mode of delivery. Online classes can become dull and boring without student engagement and participations. Mentimeter prevents it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although PowerPoint is relatively simple to use, inexperienced users may find its sophisticated featuers and functionalities daunting. For some users, mastering these functions might be a barrier because it takes a lot of time and effort. PowerPoint might be limited in terms of customisation even though it provides a wide selection of templates and design possibilities. Because of the software's limited selection of pre-made layouts and templates, users could find it challenging to produce really original and personalised designs.

The challenge of successfully conveying concepts through visual presentations is resolved by Microsoft PowerPoint.

I save time and effort in the creative process because to the software's templates and design options. PowerPoint helps me communicate ideas effectively and professionally by producing polished slideshows. This eventually benefits me by guranteeing that my presentations leave an impression and are remembered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would sometimes like Relayto to have a clock or timer that I could check to know how much time I'm investing in making edits because I think I sometimes spend too much time on the platform trying to create the perfect interactive content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The problem that Relayto solves is the challenge of finding a way to create interactive content and make it look professional in a very short time. The best part is that a person doesn’t have to be an expert to achieve this. Personally, I used to spend a lot of time trying to animate my presentations, but I was rarely satisfied with the results, and it took me too long. And when I had to create more than one article, the time would double or triple. Relayto optimizes the content presentation process and makes it intuitive and user-friendly.

I have found that creating engaging videos for social media, YouTube, or business can be challenging. But, Veed has changed content creation for me.

Veed offers a suite of tools for adding effects, captions, subtitles, and images to videos. I can produce professional-looking content without the steep learning curve of other editing software I've tried.

It has a user-friendly interface and streamlined workflow which is good for social media videos, podcasts, YouTube content and TikTok reels. The speed at which I can edit and enhance videos is remarkable.

I've read about a study that 93% of businesses gained new customers through video content on social media. Using Veed is not about creating videos, I see it as an investment in an online presence and a potential customer base.

It's not just a video editor, it seems to offer a competitive edge in the digital landscape. In my short time using Veed I've seen the platform evolve... now that's impressive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

None. We have had a number of requests and pain points identified during roll-out but each have been solved or are in the process of being solved by the developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

People are important. Chmeetings provides us with great communication structures and care frameworks we need to strengthen the relationships in our faith communities.

Organisation is not always in the skill set of a pastor/church leader. Chmeetings helps us support these leaders by giving them simple tools to perform operational and organisational tasks for their churches/faith communities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No significant dislikes. It's true that an integration may take a little bit, but they did not even charge for a new custom integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visibility into donations and donors. This helps us know who starts, when they start, and who has missed or even dropped off. Only with this information can we care for donors well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish we had more characters to send longer messages within our plan. Because we are a non-profit it's difficult to upgrade our plan as we are government funded through grants. I also wish special characters were not extra credits as it is not cost-effective to communicate with our Spanish-speaking contacts in a gramatically correct manner (using accents and other special characters). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Because of Text-Em-All, I can simply send a mass text blast instead of calling each person, which is very time-efficient. Also, our stakeholders (parents/guardians) are more likely to respond to text messaging sent to their phones rather than emails. This platform allows us to market our afterschool services and events to parents as well as any emergency notifications such as school closings, inclement weather, and lockdowns/drills/evacuations very simply. Parents and school administrators thus have increased trust in our program and ability to communicate in an appropriate window of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Colossyan Creator is still relatively new, so it's hard to pinpoint any drawbacks at the moment. Right now, the positive aspects far outweigh any potential disadvantages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It solves the problem of creating high-quality, professional videos quickly and efficiently, especially for training and marketing purposes. Historically, video production has required a significant investment of time, money, and expertise. Many other AI tools still struggle with natural facial expressions and body movements. This tool excels in these areas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there were more premade reports built in to the system. Also, when exporting data to csv files, I'd prefer not having to modify the resulting spreadsheet by deleting multiple columns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Here are some drawbacks which I faced personally.

I have switched to new version of Outlook’s new version lacks essential features from the old version. It seems like having less features than old version. It is difficult to sort email, rules are too much and complicated.

It is good on organizational level but seems expensive for IOS and Macos users.

Managing user accounts, permissions, and settings, especially in a our organization is very complex and requires dedicated IT resources.

Sometimes it make the very slow performance of the system. Excel sheets got stuck sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Microsoft 365 have solved alot of our problems.

OneDrive: we have no fear to loss of data because everything is cloud base now can be accessed any time.

Teams: Our Internal and with US Team meetings are converted to Team.

Tasks: It is very easy top track and maintain daily TO DO list.

Loop: Loop have made our life easy where we manage all of pur projects and daily, weekly, monyhly issue and many more boards to track everything regarding our projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a leaning curve to using the program but even then they provide so many tutorials that it makes it easy ! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Signing up for events is so much better Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The new monthly model offers unlimited videos however puts a limit on how many videos can be processed quickly (i.e. 30 for the Creator and 100 for Team). I was unaware on this part of the new changes and once I hit my 31st video, the processing time goes from a few minutes to 24 hours or more! I understand there might be limitations on the processing aspect, but going from minutes to 24 hour is a huge gap and significantly impacts our productivity. I hope HeyGen can reduce this process time or remove it completely in the near future.

The other thing is that Support team needs work. First is response time, which can take up to 45minutes to an hour on Live chat sometimes. Second, you either get a very knowledgeable Support person, or someone that has a lot of trouble even comprehending the problem (usually bugs/glitch within Heygen), and what they do is to force a generic solution that doesn't address the actual problem.

A bit pricy if you don't use it a lot. Make sure you're going to use it a lot before buying. We use this very often to add interesting stories and explainer videos to go into our eLearning. If you don't have the Enterprise version, which we do not, it doesn't give you WellSaidLabs with your subscription. We looked into getting that feature, but found out if you get it, it still doesn't give you all the editing capabilities for the AI voices that WellSaidLabs has as a standalone product. So, we decided not to get the Enterprise version because of that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Vyond does offer a free trial for you to try it before you buy it. It is a great tool if you want to spice up your eLearning with more interesting animated videos. You should be able to think creatively in order to use this tool to its fullest capacity. Vyond is the tool that you can use to take your eLearning to the next level. It's tops in the learning and development industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Vyond to make scenrio videos to explain concepts, explainer videos, scenario videos, and soft skills training for Amazon. I typically add these to my Articulate Rise courses, but sometimes I use these as standalone videos. So much cheaper and you can do more than if you used professional video to tell the same story. I've used Vyond for animated videos for new hire training, process training, explainer videos, and upskilling training. It is easy to make interesting videos with Vyond that will keep the learners' interest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Intuitive User Interface: The dashboard and tool layout are straightforward, making it easy to find what you need and get started without a steep learning curve.

Rich Template Library: Visme offers a wide variety of templates that cater to different industries and purposes. This diversity makes it a go-to solution for quickly drafting visual content that still looks customized and thoughtfully designed.

Interactivity Features: The ability to add interactivity to presentations and infographics—like links, videos, and hover effects—enhances the way audiences engage with the content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Performance Issues: At times, the platform can be a bit sluggish, especially when working with more graphic-intensive projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
