Animaker Reviews

Pros

Animaker is a really flexible tool to make all kinds of animations especially in 2D. I used it a lot back when I was in school and it didn't take me long to get comfortable with because the interface felt very user friendly.

Cons

Earlier on,�the software�would freeze pretty often. It also wasn't well optimized for lower-spec computers especially the ones at public schools, so I usually had to rely on my own PC to make animations without constant lag.

Pros

Being able to use Animaker for free and create three videos a month, each up to two minutes long, is something I really appreciate. I use it to make videos for my kids and students based on whatever topic or character trait we are focusing on that month. There is also the option to upgrade for $20 a month to the basic plan which unlocks a lot more features and lets me build much more customized, longer videos for class rules, new lessons and other fun monthly ideas.

Cons

A limitation with the free plan is that it only allows three downloads per month and each video has to be two minutes or less.

Pros

Using it is fun and pretty easy and it helps me create videos that feel cool and unique. There are also plenty of useful free features I can add into my project.

Cons

The downside is that it can be very glitchy and scenes sometimes disappear out of nowhere. I had to reach out to tech support to recover deleted scenes and it took about a day and a half. I also wasn't happy that There is no option to add links inside the video.

Pros

To be honest, There is very little to appreciate about Animaker when the core functionality is this unreliable. The feature list might look appealing at first but that quickly gets overshadowed by nonstop lag and frequent crashes. It's tough to see any value in it when I keep having to refresh the app and lose my progress over and over.

Cons

This platform�sounded promising, so I expected a much better experience but it's been frustrating from start to finish.�The app�lags constantly which makes getting anything done feel nearly impossible. Whenever I try to create or edit a project, it freezes up and forces me to refresh the page, only to end up starting over again. That wastes a huge amount of time and completely kills productivity especially when you're already deep into a project. The lag has been an ongoing problem and there doesn't seem to be any real solution coming. For something that's supposed to simplify animation, it ends up doing the exact opposite. I wouldn't recommend it unless you're okay with wasting time and getting annoyed the whole way through. Really disappointing.

Pros

It's fun to use and very easy, plus I was able to import my PowerPoint without any trouble.

Cons

One limitation was that the bullet points couldn't be set up in multiple tiers.

Pros

Putting together animated videos with this product is really easy. It lets me create impressive videos using a wide range of animations which makes the whole process enjoyable.

Cons

The smart move animation feature can be a little tricky to figure out. It would be much better if there were some helpful tooltips or info prompts to guide users while using it.

Pros

Animaker works really well when creating promotional cartoons for my brand and other similar content.

Cons

It's very simple to use and it's easy to find all the characters you need for making cartoons.

Pros

As an enterprise customer, I have been able to get a lot out of this platform because it offers me such a wide range of tools and they all work well together within the same ecosystem.

Cons

The interface occasionally has small hiccups but their support team responds quickly and usually resolves those issues without much delay.

Pros

Using Animaker is genuinely fun and the results turn out really well. It offers me plenty of options to work with which makes creating videos feel flexible and creative.

Cons

It can be a little tricky sometimes but the help desk is really helpful when that happens.

Pros

Getting started with it is very beginner-friendly and it's also a really top choice when creating videos.

Cons

Nothing major that I would like to share when it comes to cons.

Pros

Having complete control over how my scenes look is a huge plus. On other animation platforms, I cannot even change the colors, so this gives me much more freedom to create things the way I want. It also helps me earn creative points on projects since I can use this instead of recording myself. The support team has also been incredibly responsive and helpful. Special thanks from me to Giftson.

Cons

The biggest limitation is the time cap. I'd really like to see it increased to 5 minutes. It would also be much better if basic users had the option to pay for a single video download instead of having to subscribe for an entire month.

Pros

Getting started with it is very user friendly and it's been really useful for my work. There are plenty of colors and a lot of different options to play around with which makes creating videos more enjoyable.

Cons

Well it does take a bit of time to learn everything properly and the text-to-speech feature could be better.

Pros

Right away, the helpful support team and user friendly interface made Animaker a pleasure to use.

Cons

It was a bit slow on my older laptop but once I switched to a newer one, it worked really well.

Pros

Getting started with it is simple, the tutorials are easy to follow and the narrator feature adds more depth to my stories.

Cons

The extra add-ons on top of the subscription can make it become expensive.

Pros

There are plenty of templates available which makes it useful for different types of integrations.

Cons

It feels a bit too animation-heavy and I'd really like to have more graphic style options to choose from.

Pros

Animaker has been fantastic especially as someone just getting started in animation. I have used After Effects and Premiere for creating this kind of content but with Animaker the process is much faster while still delivering really good quality.

Cons

At times it does lag and the cloud save feature isn't very reliable. There have been moments when a project didn't save properly.

Pros

It is very user friendly as I can just drag in my assets and begin animating right away. The layout is simple to move through and the whole platform is very easy to use.

Cons

It does miss some of the features you'd get from more advanced and complex platforms.

Pros

The good thing is that getting started with it doesn't take much time and the platform is versatile with easy functions that are simple to use.

Cons

A lot of the strongest features are locked behind extra purchases which can be frustrating.

Pros

Animaker is pretty easy and the platform is simple to use while still offering plenty of power.

Cons

There are times when support takes a little while to respond but once they do, they really go above and beyond to help.

Pros

Coming from a non-digital background, Animaker has been brilliant and easy to work with. I have used it many times over the years, both for my university assignments and in two different jobs and it has consistently been useful.

Cons

The only downside I have noticed is that when a recording is very short, it becomes quite hard to make changes or adjustments.
