Your Go-to Storyboard Software

PROS

MakeStoryboard is easy to set up. A few clicks here and there will do the trick!. I love the fact that you can start planning your story from scratch, using the pencil and marker tool, you can draw out what you want everything to look like. You can never loose track of your progress! MakeStoryboard keeps your data updated and you can retrieve everything.

CONS

No Cons with MakeStoryboard everything sits the right way!

No learning curve!

PROS

Very easy-to-use software to make storyboards. Just start one, upload pictures or draw your own, write the content in the customizable fields (voiceover, shot explanations, comments, etc...), and share with others without having to create new user accounts. Fast, easy, and very affordable.

CONS

Haven't found any cons yet. I just started using it and I was able to open my account, work on my storyboard and submit it to the editing company I was working with in less than an hour!

Vendor Response

Thank you so much for you feedback! Hope you would like storyboarding process with MakeStoryboard!

The only storyboard app I sticked with

From great and beyond. Clients are happy with this way of sharing storyboards and we are happy that we found a very simple solution to just drag and drop artwork into cells, easily organize them and share with clients.

PROS

I am a video producer and animator and during my 11 + years of doing animations I used a lot of storyboard apps. So far MakeStoryboard is the only app that resisted the time test. All the other apps were full of bugs, non-functional in critical times or too expensive. I found a great balance with Makestoryboard even if the app is not perfect and it could be improved a lot. But customer support is great, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] treats me less as a client and more as a friend and it's very helpful in fixing the bugs I report.

CONS

There were a series of bugs that I reported during the years but luckily all of them have been fixed which made MakeStoryboard a stable solution for our company.

MakeStoryBoard is what I have been looking for

PROS

This storyboard app has all the features that I need while being FAR more affordable than competing storyboard apps

CONS

I have not found anything that I dislike so far

Reason for choosing MakeStoryBoard

The pricing model for MakeStoryBoard is better suited for freelancers and more affordable than competing products, yet has the same essential features for storyboarding. Also, the developer is incredibly responsive and open to feedback about features. In the short time that I have been using the product, he has already implemented two features I suggested.

Reasons for switching to MakeStoryBoard

Boords.com has the same features but is far more costly and not a good fit for a freelancer such as myself

Easy and Fast

All positive. Exactly what we've needed.

PROS

Intuitive way to build and edit storyboards quickly. It has the core features that you need, it responds well to re-arranging scenes and images, and you can choose your export format and layout. It's exactly what I was looking for and has already saved HOURS of work.

CONS

I've had a few upgrade requests that they implement almost immediately. No complains
