Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • Been using AAE for over 10 years and it has vastly expanded into an essential tool in the video editing business. It has wonderful options to create some amazing effects.
  • I liked that the software was easy to use and had an intuitive user interface. I also liked that it was very reliable and had a lot of features that made it easy to customize.
  • A powerful tool for breathtaking, high-quality animation, it automates graphics animation thanks to its shape key system.
  • Cons

  • This program maybe very slow and stop working some time it make crash and close so all my work will disappear and the text animation will be applied wrong in the Arabic text.
  • After Effects can be really heavy on your computer and is prone to crashing. It's part of Adobe, which has some of the worst customer support in existence.
  • Sometimes when the file size becomes large, the program stops working. There are some effects that need to be written in order to work and it is difficult to learn all of them.

  • Pros

  • Also, its fantastic community is such a lovely place to be. Using Krita was definitely a pleasant experience for me, with some hiccups, that are bound to be fixed.
  • I appreciated most its competitive pricing (which is to say, it's free.) I also liked that it's relatively easy to figure out the graphics part.
  • I really enjoy using Krita, it is extremely user friendly and offers a wide selection of free brushes for me to use. The cool filters and effects help make my drawings and animations stand out.
  • Cons

  • Very hard to use and understand how to use the features, I actually became very frustrated trying to use this program.
  • It looks a little outdated and can be frustrating to figure out where the tools are at until you get used to it.
  • There is a bug that makes the tool cursor stuck on color selector.
