An easy and fun way to create amazing animated videos without much effort or time

Pros

We have to create a lot of content, and animated content is always better received. Wideo allows us to create modern and very dynamic videos thanks to the fact that they have a library with a great variety of elements and animations to choose from. From templates of places and situations, to be able to define the movements of each of the characters. It's great and relatively easy to use. Once you know the dynamics of work and where to find everything you can produce great videos quickly.

Cons

As a web app, you'll need to be connected in order to use it. Besides that, we would like them to update (and expand) their library, since many competitors do so regularly, theirs might become poor in comparison.

Useful only if you create a lot of videos

I find that it will be useful and worth the investment for a business that needs lots of videos and which doesn't need them to be very original.

Pros

I like that it is very easy to use, you don't need previous knowledge about video making, as you have many templates to choose from. You can also create your ouwn video from scratch, but I have never done it this way because my creative skills are non existent.

Cons

What I don't like about Wideo is that you cannot download your creations during the trial period, you can only use this time to learn how to use it and evaluate whether it is worth the money for you. Also, the templates that you can choose from are more than enough, but at the end, they are limited, so possibilities are that you will find the same template used in another video in another website, which is not cool. After all, we all want to have exclusive videos. Of course, you can create your own exclusive videos in Wideo, but you will need to be creative and imaginative, which I'm not.

TERRIBLE experience

Pros

If you are a student and get the discount maybe. But at the end of the day, I'm biased. I can't see any good.

Cons

I started with the free trial. During this time, they give you full access to all the elements. I decided to download the video and I had the plan to make more, so I went for a basic membership. To my surprise, I didn't have access to any of the elements I used before. So I decided to talk with one of their "happiness customer agents". I explained that I didn't have access to the elements I needed and I requested a refund. After 10 painful exchange of emails, they told me that it was "clearly advertised" what's included. But of course, during the trial, they let you use everything, but once you pay, they limit you.

Excellent product, very recommend.

Pros

- It is very easy to make changes and see them reflected quickly. - Easy to use without previous knowledge of animation.

Cons

It would be nice to be able to add and edit video. I think this would make it a very complete tool :)

Look at me--the video hero at the office

What I love most about Wideo is the speed. I can crank out a video for our clients in like 20 minutes. That gives me so many options. Holiday party coming up? Let me just slip on Wideo and make a video card. Need a lengthier explainer for your clients? Wideo's got templates that will make the final product look clean and professional.

Pros

I love how easy it is to use. I don't have a video editing background; but ever since I started using Wideo, I'm creating stellar videos at work.

Cons

I wish there were more animation options and presets. Hopefully that's clear. Sometimes, to get the effect I'm looking for I'll have to edit video template slides...I'd love for Wideo to have more robust tutorials and better functionality.

Give rep a Ferrari - she's the best trainer anyone could want in the world of annimation

Wideo is fantastic! We have been dragged kicking and screaming into the confusing world of animation with a complete conversion to obsession from the talented teachings of rep (sorry, we also love alliteration) who has the patience of a Saint! Definitely give it a go - if you are an agency, your clients will thank you.

Pros

It's easy for thickies like me that have to do new funky stuff on socials daily for bone crushing ROI seeking clients.

Cons

I can't file my uploaded backgrounds into separate client files and I want more music tracks coz I can't sing.

They help my business look professional

Pros

How easy it is to use and the templates they provide to start with since I'm not a computer designer.

Cons

I don't like that there are no options to include videos inside the software. That would be a great option.

Selena Hicks' Review of Wideo

We've saved weeks of time and thousands of dollars by no longer having to send our video projects out to third-party vendors.

Pros

I love that Wideo allows my team to quickly create videos in a matter of minutes. The interface is extremely easy to navigate and packed with fun visual and audio elements to make our videos engaging.

Cons

I wish there were more animated icons and customizable templates.

A fast track to a professional video

Pros

Quite intuitive, comprehensive, sound and external graphical media integration and ready-for-use templates

Cons

I've constantly experienced issues with the Firefox flash-plug in. The support teams has been fast in responding, but I missed a sense of ownership. I've alwyas been referred to a standard configuration which was of no help. To date the issue is not solved and I can't tell whether this is an app issue or a local issue with my configuration.

fun and easy animations with just a few clicks

allows to make animations that serve as tutorials for various processes, which, in my case when working with teachers and students, makes it a very powerful tool to show action strategies, as well as to show the mistakes that are made in a class room .

Pros

-you can make animations easily, which is perfect for a "draw my life" video tutorial. -It is quite simple and intuitive the environment, which makes the work much easier. -all elements are well organized by types and styles. -It has several built-in animated elements, but also allows you to upload your images to add them.

Cons

one of the things to improve, and I think the most important thing is that everything is based on internet connection, so if you are in a place with difficult connection or just cut the internet you can not wideo anything.

Simple, template-based online app for creating video business presentations and more.

For freelancers, small, medium and even some large businesses, Wideo.co is a reasonable return on investment. It creates simple or more sophisticated animated videos that will catch the attention of the business audience. It seems particularly fitting for Internet marketers and alike. A large support section and plenty of the video tutorials are available. It uses a not-secure, soon obsolete flash player for editing a video. There are many other similar online and offline applications. The limitations exist within the less expensive subscription tiers. Study the comparison columns before a purchase. Spend some time with the app, visit their YouTube channel and decide if your business benefited from this particular platform. It is a good solution for what it is within its limitations.

Pros

Moderately easy template-based creation of a business presentation video and more. Able to control individual frames for detailed animation. The auto-save feature automatically saves the work every three minutes. Clear and responsive interface. Special discount for educators and students. Rather expensive plans, but with a discount on annual billing. Occasional promotions and specials. The 7-day trial does not require a credit card. Control the privacy of the videos. Imports MP3 files. Videos can be reusable over and over. Cloud/web-based so it can be used on a variety of platforms. Chrome extension available. Compatible with Google Drive. Variety of tutorial videos and how to articles. Available in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Korean languages. The social media uploads, including the YouTube. High-definition video formats downloads.

Cons

Flash must be enabled to run the web application. Less expensive subscription tiers present substantial limitation. The one-minute limitation does not justify the basic package price. The seven-day only trial. A video download not-allowed during the seven-day trial. A user video upload/import not-possible at all. During the editing process, impossible to apply different sounds to various scenes. No audio effects per animation nor a video. Sounds fade out if shorter than a video. No free subscription plan available. Only Roman and Korean alphabets supported but, it uploads the text-based images. The interactive video option only applies to its native player.

I have loved using Wideo. I haven't used it recently because I've branched out into real video

Pros

The simplicity of use, like building a PowerPoint or KeyNote presentation. Also the clean look. That's my answer!

Cons

Last time I used it, I found it hard to create certain special effects. For eg. I tried to create a dropping feather in one video. That's probably a job for Adobe AfterEffects.

Wideo is a decent option

It served its purpose. I created more than 20 videos with it, and the overall experience and feedback about them, was pretty good. But there are still many things to improve. More importantly knowing that there is a lot of competition with other competitors that offer similar services.

Pros

It's easy to use. Once you get used to it, you can make good animations. It's obviously not aimed at professional video animators. But for someone that wants to make a couple of videos fast and easy, this is a great tool.

Cons

With the last update to HTML5, there were many things that are yet to be added. One of the features i miss the most is the shortcut for Undo. Little things like this, become annoying when you have to spend 4 hours making a video. When suggesting ideas, customer support tells you that they will work on it, but i'm not sure you ever hear of it again.

I should have start using it before

Keep it simple and use Wideo

Pros

It gave me a new tool to offer my clients and in my company: video templates. Even though I have plenty of experience using different video editors software, having pre-built templates have made my work easier. I can deliver video content way faster for any marketing strategy I want to start.

Cons

That it doesn’t have more “professional” features to customize the templates. Maybe because I put to much focus in details

A real time saver, a great shortcut

Pros

I appreciate that Wideo allows you to quickly create videos.

Cons

I've had some oddities happen here and there (things get glitchy), but nothing too bad.

It is a tool of easy use and professional finish.

Easy to use, professional finish, quick solution, accessibility.

Pros

Easy to use, professional finish, quick solution, accessibility. One of the main advantages we find in wideo is the speed to solve the problem of creating a video in very short time and without the need of intermediary providers.

Cons

It lacks the ability to create masks. You can not create groups of folders in "My wideos". They are not problems, just some possible ideas.

Wideo Review

Pros

We are able to quickly create short videos. The UI is very easy to navigate and user friendly.

Cons

The application has some bugs and crashes too much.

My favourite software

Simply brilliant

Pros

It has made my life easier. It should exist video templates for everything. I used them to create awesome videos which enable me to complete a variety of projects and express my ideologies at university and also, for private matters. You guys are killing it.

Cons

I would like to have more sounds options

Helpful to Produce Animated Graphics, But Not Limitless

Overall for the pretty inexpensive price, it's a good deal.

Pros

It has a lot of great animated graphic templates that I use to enhance my corporate and product videos, and they make my videos much more professional-looking.

Cons

The interface is a little clunky to get used to, but not terrible. Also, I've used just about all their templates, and I wish they had a larger library of "corporate" style templates.

Super happy with the product and support from Wideo

able to produce quality videos quickly

Pros

Easy to use, the interface is very intuitive and I came up to speed quickly. My clients really like the videos.

Cons

There are a few bells & whistles I wish it had but it seems that the Wideo team is actively working on feature enhancement.
