In general, it seems like a great software for someone who wants to enter the world of animation.

I love that it is open source software. It is very easy to use and the interface is very intuitive, it is also a very light program, it is totally free and runs on any operating system.

It is a software for beginners in my opinion, the animations are frame by frame, which is tedious after a while, and it does not support 3d animations.

A very good beginner-friendly 2D animation application. Best for personal use and for learning and practicing 2D animation. Best for people looking for a free tool for creating hand drawn animations on a computer.

1)Beginner-Friendly - The User Interface is very easy and simple. Even a new user can pick up this tool in a few hours. 2)Completely Open Source - Free 2D animation software. You don't need to pay anything to use this application. 3)Cross-Platform - Can be used on any operating system or device. 4)Supports both Raster and Vector graphics. You can animate both Raster and vector assets. 5)Free to use, even commercially! It's completely free! 6)Comparitively works smoothly even on budget-friendly systems. You don't need a high-end system for the smooth running of this application. Yes, it works nicely on standard systems as well.

1) Need to animate frame by frame which takes a lot of time and patience. 2) No 3D support. Can only create 2D animations. 3) Limited options compared to other animation software. 4) Not much used by professional studios.

I like how creative i could get with pencil 2d, it helps, when one knows how to draw.

I feel that pencil 2d needs more features to stand out, and then better UX for beginners.

I have a very nice and professional experience with Pencil2D, because I have created and designed a number of 2D animations using this software. I have found it so incredibly professional for my business and individual requirements.

Pencil2D is an amazing and professional tool that allows you to design 2D hand-drawn animations. The software is so easy to use so anyone can learn it easily. It's lightweight and runs almost on every operating system.

The tools, features and options of Pencil2D are amazing and fabulous. I never faced any issues and cons. According to my point of view, it's best without cons and issues.

pencil is a very good software for starting with in animation and graphic designing

pencil is straight forward it is user friendly. its rendering speed even in slow computers. its frame rate works perfect mostly for starters who are starting with 2d animation.

pencil UI is not colorfull enough.so its not easy to make realistic blending color

Awesome at beginner-friendly hand-drawn animations. It's a no-frills-easy-to-navigate-and-learn 2D animation tool that I find works great on any system. I experienced no lags, just a smooth running format that has you creating with ease

It's FREE, user interface is delightfully basic which is a blessing for the newbies, supportive of both Vector and Raster graphics, and no pesky stalling when putting an animation together.

The frame by frame technique is how it's done here. No fancy tech frills, though for many this isn't a con

MY OVERALL EXPERIENCE WAS GOOD. COULD BE A BETTER SOFTWARE, BUT THIS ONE IS A GOOD ONE TO USE.

THIS PROGRAM WAS EASY TO FIND, EASY TO USE AND IT GOT THE JOB DID FOR ME IN THE NICK OF TIME! I USE IT ON A NORMAL NOW FOR WEEKLY USES! IT'S EASIER FOR ME TO GET THINGS DONE QUICKLY!

I LITERALLY UNDERSTOOD IT WAS A 2D SOFTWARE, I WAS LOOKING FOR ANYTHING THAT I COULD TYPE IN BECAUSE MICROSOFT WOUDLN'T PULL UP! I DON'T HAVE A BAD THING TO SAY ABOUT IT.

i like Pencil2D because its easy to use, its an open source and can run on different operating systems and also good for beginners

1)it is limited compared to some other animation software`s 2)its not used that often by big studios.

As a digital artist, I usually try several kinds of drawing/painting softwares to see the differences of these softwares. The tools for 2D drawing is great and easy to use, I really haven't tried animation yet but I will do that pretty soon

Well I haven't seen anything that I like least about the software based on the capacity which I have been using it

Simple interface. Easy to move around the key frames Basic yet powerful feature set.

Some of the actions are not intuitive like rotating your drawings, no option to multiply layers, changing bitmap layer to lighter, shading layers. May not be suitable for advanced animations.

Very good, although it has some drawbacks and lacks a motion curve, but it is good at drawing in 2D

Very good in terms of use, tools, and video editing to add visual effects to it and ease of use

It is bad in terms of its reliance on manual knocking in the tires and its lack of framerate curve, and it cannot be used in motion graphics

I liked using Pencil2D, it is a free tool that allows a good base and an initiation for 2D animation with vector drawing, it is simple but for those who are starting and looking for new paths like 2D animation, this software is a good way .

I like Pencil2D because it is free and open-source software, it has easy tools to work with, intuitive and with simple icons and runs on various operating systems not limited to just one system.

The main point against Pencil2d is the absence of complex tools, there is a lack of tools to bring better color effects, drawing tools, curves etc. but honestly this is not a giant problem, the tool does not have this intention, the intention to be the best the most robust in the world but to be a tool that brings a great introduction to animation with vector drawing.

After practicing with this software to make a few 2D animations, I've had a very positive and professional experience with it. I've found it to be quite sophisticated for both my work and personal needs.

This is so quick and easy to learn by anyone. It is suitable for just about any hardware as it is so lightweight. It is free of cost to make traditional frame by frame animation.

Some of the final results can look a little scratchy.
