Storykit

Avantages

All features you need are in the system, without making it too complicated to use. I also love the fact that there are so many slide types to choose from. Love that you can drag and drop assets into the asset library and that you can use parts of videos/sequences as assets without having to cut the video before you drag it into the asset library. And the inboxing part to other clients is great.

Inconvénients

1. That the intro-slides don't have the option to choose smaller font sizes and more characters. Sometimes (in certain languages) intro-slides are hard to use since words are too long and will be cut.

2. That music files cant be filtered, and that you cant choose where to start playing a music tune. Sometimes you want the tune to start 3 sec in.

3. That you can't inbox entire campaign files with multiple jobs in them.

Avantages

How easy and fast it is to create a good enough video and with som design skills and good content you can make it great.

Inconvénients

The cons are that the prewiev rendering takes to long. And maybe there could be a membership that allows the user to upload custom fonts without haveing to send them in to Storykit and pay for it every time.
Another con i typography adjustments. I would be great to have the possibilites to adjust font size and line height in the templates. Or at least some templates.

Avantages

Easy to use and great stock of images and templates. Great customer service and continuous development of new features.

Inconvénients

With more and more organizations using StoryKit of course you can see it being used more, and it lowers the uniqueness of your video content a bit. However, the team seem to be doing their best to come up with new templates all the time, so as a user you just need to dare to be a bit more creative and use newers layouts.

Avantages

It is easy to use and easy to get started. You have the option to customise and choose your on assets to create branded content.

Inconvénients

That the preview rendering sometimes is a bit slow.
The positioning of assets is a bit to rigid with only the options for Top/Center/Bottom - Left/Center/Right. A system for positioning the asset in the background (aka video or image) with a "drag and drop" feature would be great.

Avantages

That I, as a non-video editor, can produce professional-looking videos for many clients.

Inconvénients

Nothing. It's really good and works well for us.

Avantages

High quality results. Easy to use even for beginners. Efficient use in all channels. Good customer service.

Inconvénients

Our professional video animation experts think that the tool is too "static" and limiting. However, for the rest of our marketing team, the tool is regarded as flexible, easy to use and an easy way to create high quality content. We have found a way too use both Storykit and professional animations, depending on the situaiton.

Avantages

Storykit makes it possible for amateurs to get started and make videos instantly.

Inconvénients

Sometimes the templates are a little too rigid. The number of characters could have come up as recommended, but that one had the opportunity to write a few more characters.

Avantages

I love Storykit since it is so easy to use and learn how to use. With Storykit we have produced really a lot of videos, videos that explain our somewhat complicated products and services in a much easier way - storytelling videos. To produce this many videos without such a tool would have costed me a fortune in money and it would also have costed me a lot more time.

Inconvénients

We have had some problems with the publishing feature, from time to time.
