Pros / Cons
  • The possibilities are endless and the amount of adds-on and plugins are very vast and enable you create stunning VFX and motion graphics.
  • Complex projects can slow down my computer and render times can be long, especially without high-end hardware.

  • I love that when I use Animaker in the free version I can make three 2 minutes (or less) videos each month to share with my kids and students.
  • Every time I try to create or edit something, it freezes, forcing me to refresh the page and start all over again.
