Amazing Vector Animation Software
Great experience overall, I got to try this software after some blogs recommendations, and it happened to perform great, thusly we started to employ the software more and more often in the place of Adobe After Effects.
PROSIt does have a free trial for those looking to take a look. The user interface is tremendously user friendly The rendering system just works how it should.
CONSIt is not as capable as Adobe After Effects, some features are missing. Other than that, must of the vector animations can be performed hassle free.
Reason for choosing SVGator
It is fairly less expensive and the user interface is easier to manage.
Reasons for switching to SVGator
It seems to consume fewer resources from the PC while rendering and editing, and it is great given the fact that you usually have other vector editor software open simultaneously. The user interface seems pretty straightforward when editing and it makes the work to run smoothly while designing.

A great cloud-based online tool
the overall experience was good and enjoyable, the software is easy to work with and simple to learn
PROSWhat I like most about SVGator is that it is online and cloud-based, it does not overload the computer and allows the developer more dynamism when using the software. The interface is very simple, intuitive and friendly, learning is not so difficult even because on the internet there are many tutorials that help with this. The color work that this program has is very good and efficient. Besides, producing SVG animations is very fast (much faster) than most of the other programs.
CONSHonestly I don't have any negative points to put, the company always seems to be listening well to criticism and always trying to improve the software and this is very good, over the time I used it I saw that some tools were updated and this is very good and leads me to believe that other tools will be improved. The price is not the cheapest but this is a negative point that as you work and earn your money it will decrease

Worst Customer service (They didn't even get back to me)
I think I would say that I am not a fan, and mostly because of their lack of response. Shows they don't care.
PROSIt seems like it has potential to do things quicker than some programs
CONSTheir customer service is lacking, they don't work with after effects and kind of charge you to try anything that is worth trying.

Easy and fast to learn
Svgator solved the need to have a light weight animation for a web project
PROSWhat I like most is that the software is easy to use, watching only few hours of tutorial you can do most of the thing that you have in mind. The output is a light weight svg animation that is perfect for the web, you can forget animated gifs or infographic videos! Furthermore the biggest animation software (adobe) doesn’t support animated gif yet, so this software is a valide alternative.
CONSThe software needs to be developed. I would like text and paragraph support, to save entire animation in library (for to be used in differents works), exportation also in other format (supported from iOS app and other software) and maybe in an html that can be shared, svg static images of a frame (for example I need to insert the draw in a mock-up and the others software doesn’t support animated svg)

Thank you for your feedback and the suggestions, we will definitely take them into consideration!

SVGator: A great SVG animation tool!
SVGator is a really great and simple to use. There are a ton of features and tools offered that have helped me with many projects.
PROSSVGator is a very user-friendly software and it's cloud-based. It's great for vector animation and perfect for those with limited skills as there are many tools to help you get the job done..
CONSThere isn't really anything negative to say about SVGator. The software isn't as powerful as the more premium options out there but it's is pretty close.

Decent but not fully-fledged enough for any kind of productive work
There aren't that many great SVG animation tools out there and SVGator is among the best. Unfortunately, this is simply a testament to how poor most of the tools are. There's definitely a lot of room for improvement. I ended up hand animating a lot of what I needed.
PROSSVGator is ok for extremely simple SVG animations. Exports well-formed SVG files.
CONSThe animation tools are very limited. Animating a few shapes is easy enough, but anything complex like nesting shapes, moving multiple shapes at a time, repeating animations etc quickly becomes a chore.
Reason for choosing SVGator
SVGator works on the Web, which is a big plus.

Perfect for handing over to the dev team
Main benefits for us is the amount of time we save. There's no third-party software needed to create seamless SVG animations they way you want with CSS or JS attributes.
PROSWhat I like about SVGator the most is the ease of use. I can quickly create an icon or illustration in XD or Illustrator, export it as an SVG, create a new project in SVGator and apply the motion I desire. Once complete its a simple "EXPORT" and straight into the devs hand for implementation.
CONSI didn' find any cons with this software. This is because I have some background knowledge in motion graphics, so the tools and language were all familiar to me. It can be a steep learning curve for those who have no experience to achieve quick results.
Reasons for switching to SVGator
Nothing can beat the speed you can output SVG animations than SVGator.

Cool tool and nice service
Unfortunately, I have chosen the wrong subscription plan accidentally - annual instead of monthly. This was a very significant amount of money for me and I did not plan such big expenses now - so I wrote to support hoping for the best, but not really expecting anything and they helped me to change the plan and gave the refund, which was really really helpful! Great great guys!
PROSInterface, opportunity to create animated SVG files without knowing of CSS, etc! I just a graphic designer and illustrator, I don't know these developers things, but it wasn't difficult for me to sort this out and use this tool for creating my first animated SVG illustration for my client despite I had never done something similar before.
CONSTo be honest I don't know what I should write in this field…

Totally recommended!
Great! really great! Hours of coding animation work turns to hour or less no-coding animation work.
PROS- If you need SVG animation? Then purchase this it is all worth it! - A frame by frame interface that is very easy to use - SVG animation has never been this easy. - If you need this for web element animations then this is the perfect tool! - Way to good!
CONSSo far, nothing. They just added a game changer feature which is animate on scroll.
Reason for choosing SVGator
SVGator is specific for SVGs and I never saw any other companies created one, this kind of tool makes it easier for designers/developers to animate and it saves a lot of time. Time is money! Hope they improve or add more features in the future.

Amazing tool to bring your designs to life
This software really feels like magic – it allows even non-skilled people to add incredibly smooth and catchy animations to icons, illustrations and other vector files. I love how it embraces the concepts of video editing (e.g. timelines, effects, keyframes) and applies them to the SVG space. The interface is gorgeous and very intuitive, you’ll be up and running in minutes and you’ll get unexpectedly great results with your animations.
CONSNothing really! I think this is the best software in the SVG animation space, by far!

Thank you so much for your feedback, we are glad you like SVGator. More updates are coming soon! :)

How to make a WordPress website interesting, again
We're very satisfied with all the exciting stuff that we can do thanks to your latest features, but sometimes we wish there was a sort of "WordPress safe" option. We're not into programming and we rely only on the converter for WordPress to run our animations on some websites. Wouldn't it be cool if there were a toggle to grey out all the animations and effects that don't work with WordPress, so that for each project we can choose whether we need all your new tools or just play it safe with fewer and safer options that work straight away in WP?
PROSWhat my co-workers and I love most about SVGator is the ability to create stunning animations without a single line of code. It's super easy! And the final result is much lighter than other solutions we tried so far, so our websites load in virtually no time. We're able to create stunning website that don't even look WordPress-based
CONSI love SVGator but I must say that the SVG converter for WordPress doesn't always work as expected and we often had to rework our animations in order to get them right for every browser. And of course this doesn't depend only on the converter, but as a long-time user of your piece of software, I have to admit that with the previous – less powerful – animation engine you had, we didn't have any single issue in years.
Reason for choosing SVGator
SVGator is much simpler and cheaper than After Effects (which then requires a converter that makes super-heavy javascript animations that are not very good)
Vendor Response
Thank you so much for your feedback. Yes, we are aware of the compatibility issues when it comes to using animated SVG files on WordPress. We are currently working on a plug-in which will make this a lot easier. Of course, there will be no need to use the converter. We will send you an email once this plug-in is available! :)

create help animations
I would like to report about my good experiences with SVGator in a German computer magazine. Version 2 is really very good.
PROSWe create machines that are delivered in 32 languages. This requires a lot of documentation with translations. With SVGator you can explain parameters graphically and thus save costs.
CONSBecause the files are in the cloud, the software is unfortunately only partially usable. Our security department does not allow this!

Review from Designer @ Think Design
It's been great – a real learning curve but very useful skill to have.
PROSIt's easier to use than other software, it's really user friendly and easy to experiment. Also really simple to export creations.
CONSThe gradient animation tool isn't great compared with AE. Can be quite glitchy when using Safari, and the exported animations in general do not load correctly in Safari.
Reason for choosing SVGator
Learning curve was a lot less steep than learning AE. More options easily implemented – e.g. click to load animation etc.
Vendor Response
Thank you for your amazing feedback, it means a lot to us! We are currently working on a new update that also includes lots of gradient improvements. We hope this update will also solve the glitches that you mentioned.

Hi there! We are glad you like SVGator. You can copy keyframes from one item to another, if the animator is the same. This will not work for morphing, as morphing also depends on the number of node points.

Excelent, but expensive for my use case
Good. It's expensive taking in to account that I needed for a very specific job.
PROSVery easy to use Features everything I needed
CONSI think it's very expensive for my use case. I had to pay $9 for using the features I needed which is aprox. R$ 50 (Reais, my country's currency), and probably I won't use it again soon. Another thing I dislike is the fact that I couldn't replace the SVG I uploaded and I had to create another project. I almost ran out of projects because I had to fix some nodes in an external software multiple times.

A beginner friendly platform
I consider this to be a very down to earth application for anyone that is unexperienced with creating a video presentation, because it is beginner friendly.
PROSThis is a very cheap platform with very good picture quality and animated effects. It has a well organized and attractive interface of tools. It is quick and easy to learn because of the tutorials that SVGator provides. I found it to be a very lightweight cloud platform and it did not cause my workspace to crash or slow down.
CONSI think it could be more helpful if objects in the composition could be divided into their own layers in the timeline, just like in Adobe After Effects.

Hi Candice! Thank you for your feedback, we are glad you like SVGator. :) Are you referring to the "Fixed size" vs "Responsive" export options? By selecting "Fixed size" for the canvas in the export settings, the elements that were outside the artboard will be hidden. We hope this helps!

Worth Every Penny for SVG Animating
SVGator takes something relatively complicated (key frames and animation timing) and allows you to drag and drop your way to a beautiful polished product. It's worth its cost, though steep, because even a novice can succeed in creating professional animations.
CONSThe price is a little steep per month, but you are getting what you pay for in this instance. Adobe does the same type of monthly subscription pricing and we all know the Adobe suite is also very valuable. Other than price, I do not know of any cons.
