Best in class video interactivity tool **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Christine R. | Instructional Designer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 23, 2025 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Video is a key tool for content delivery in online courses, but educators face the dilemma presented by the tendency of videos to be an essentially isolated and passive experience. We want and need students to engage actively and meaningfully with content. To that end, I have tested many interactivity tools in my years as an educator. I consider Playposit to be one of the best tools I have used. I tested this tool in an online 400-level engineering course. The data we collected demonstrated outstanding levels of participation and mastery. Students gave very positive feedback. While the price tag may be intimidating, the affordances of this tool are well worth it. Stable platform, well-designed and easy to learn, intuitive user interface, many options for interactivities at all levels of Bloom's taxonomy, very granular controls allowing for many, many creative combinations of setups, and seamless integration with Canvas and Blackboard, as well as outstanding support availability, make this tool a great investment. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Due to the investment required, this tool is meant to be a keystone tool, and is best leveraged by an admin team committed to backing this investment with a well-thought through long-term plan to train and support instructors/designers in widespread adoption over time. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Playposit provides interaction, active learning and accountability to improve the online learning experience and make instructors work easier. ### 2. Awesome Video Editing Platform **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Howard L. | Student, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 21, 2025 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Easy to use and allows you to work with the audio and video well! It gets better each time you use it! It is also easy to download your finished product into a video or audio form. You can even add your YouTube or Google Drive accounts for easy uploads! I've used it for 6 years now, and I love it! **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I use the free version, and there's a lot that they throw in your face that you can't have, such as their expansive archive of videos and pictures. Besides that, WeVideo is great! **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Easily making or editing videos ### 3. Great way to keep students engaged during videos **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kerri W. | Teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 05, 2019 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I really like the ability to take a pre-existing video or one that I've made (on pow-toons for example) and splice it with a question - either multiple choice or open-ended - or a poll, or even a thought I want to interject. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** There is a feature that the teacher can enable or disable which would allow the student (or not allow) the student to be able to rewind the video if needed. I have not been able to get this feature to work and my IEP kids need this! I don't know if it's my error or somehow an error of the program, but I haven't had the time to explore it more. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** I think it's worthwhile to check this software out. It syncs with my Google classroom and is fairly easy to learn how to use it. I would manually check students' answers. I did find only about 3 times that play posit marked a student's answer incorrect (multiple choice) when it was correct. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** This software literally gives me the ability to be in two places at one time! This helps enormously when differentiating instruction. I can have one group working on answering the questions and watching a video while I'm helping another group. Also, when an absence is known about ahead of time, this is a great activity to assign for a substitute. You can be assured that the correct information is getting to the students. ### 4. Simple, yet powerful editing software **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in E-Learning | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2024 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** The built in assets for video, audio and pictures. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** The tiered system for output. The level we have at our school board only allows 720p output. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** In the classroom, Wevideo provides students with another avenue to communicate their learning. They do not need to do stressful live presentations and can be extremely creative with their work. ### 5. Good video editor **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ceci L. | Human Resources assistant, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 23, 2024 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I like its easy of use and stock picture. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Sometimes I can't move a transition and don't know why. I don't think it's user error. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use it to make videos for the company I work for, both content for my consumers, and also promo ads and content for social media. ### 6. WeVideo - Creativity in Video Editing **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2023 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** WeVideo's interface is intuitive and user-friendly, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced video editors. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** pricing structure that continues to climb without new features being added **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Video editing and exporting ### 7. Great with large flaws **Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Animation | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 01, 2023 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** All in all, I love using WeVideo. It is easy, and I've used it for multiple school projects since middle school. It has a lot of features I like and I know how to use it after using it for so long. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** The pricing is horrible and ridiculous. Over the past few years, the prices have only gone up, and after finally finishing a school project, it would not let me export it. I had already made only two exports but had to make the improvements for a better score on my final presentation, and to buy the plan for only a month is ten dollars, which is stupidly expensive to export one video for a required school project I put so much time and effort into. I am not made of money. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is easy to create videos and edit them, but the pricing is stupidly high. ### 8. Very slow performance **Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jones S. | Senior Project Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 19, 2022 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Easy to learn using Wevideo. I started with Zero video editing skills. That is a plus with WeVideo! The stock videos are nice. Except for worst , slow performance, WeVideo is ok. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Performance - worst! Very, very slow to process videos. You have to wait for ages to complete editing for a simple 2 minute video. No matter how great your laptop configuration is, or how fast your internet speed is, the performance of WeVideo is pathetic! **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I brought the performance issue to WeVideo group, a few times, but nothing has been done to fix this core issue. Customers do not like to be kept on wait forever. ### 9. Fantastic commercial and video editing software! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Brian Y. | O, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 28, 2022 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Easy to use and teach to others. The platform does just about everything we need and is exremely user friendly when it comes to editing. Can be used on a computer or phone with the wevideo app. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Everything is great about it. The only downside would be the lack of .png graphics to spice up a video. That would be really nice! Also, it'd be nice to have a few more text box formats to choose from. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** WeVideo allows us to create and edit our own commercials (which we post on youtube, facebook, and our local cable TV provider). We do it for less than 10% of what the cable provider wanted to charge us for still images only! Great value! ### 10. WeVideo Change Your Classroom **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ronald N. | technology/STEAM educator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 29, 2022 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** The best aspects of WeVideo are first that it is cloud based. Students can log in to their accounts on any device and all of their work is there and ready to go. Secondly, there is a huge library of sounds, music, images, and video clips. Videos can be created without ever filming a clip! Finally, students can not only create videos but also podcasts, screencasts, and animated GIFs as well all from WeVideo. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** There is almost nothing that I don't like about WeVideo but if I had to pick one thing it would be that sometimes it can be a bit slow with uploading content. However, this must be expected with a cloud-based program and would NEVER stop me from using WeVideo. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** In schools today, we need to be thinking about the future our students will be facing and creativity is always near the top of lists that employers a looking for and with WeVideo students have that outlet. Students can create video versions of essays, and persuasive writing, they can animated stories, they can create newscasts, and so much more. So many of our students want to be TikTok or YouTube stars and with WeVideo you can create assessments to engage them where they live. ### 11. WeVideo: Tough to Beat! **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gregg E. | Project Coordinator, Educational Technology, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2022 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I truly appreciate the ease of use that WeVideo offers with it being a web-based application. It is robust enough for those that want to do more with a video editing program, but easy enough for those that want to learn. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** If I had to choose what I like least about WeVideo, it would probably be the cost. I understand everyone needs to make the green, but it would be nice if all options were available for students and educators. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I don't know if it is necessarily a problem I am solving with WeVideo for Schools, but my role is to train educators in our local districts on how to use resources like WeVideo to their full potential. The benefit is that not only do teachers become more equipped to use WeVideo proficiently, but more importantly they are able to teach their students to utilize the tool better and therefore have the ability to create and showcase their learning. ### 12. WeVideo is the perfect video editing tool for students in all grade levels **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Keith B. | Instructional Designer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 25, 2022 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Wevideo is an extremely easy product to use, Students can work collaboratively or individually to create dynamic and engaging projects. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I haven't come across any downsides yet. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our division is 1:1 using Chromebooks so having a web-based tool for video editing is fantastic! ### 13. WeVideo for the Win **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Paula O. | Instructional Technology Specialist, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 06, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** WeVideo is a one-stop shop! Before WeVideo, teachers in my building were using Screencastify, Loom, FlipGrid Shorts, Meet as a screen recorder, and more. Once I created a PD modeling the simplicity of WeVideo, teachers were hooked on it! The next step was to provide an asynchronous PD showing some of the additional features offered through WeVideo and how to make videos "WOW"! I am excited to move forward and my goal for the upcoming year is to have teachers work with students on collaborative projects using WeVideo. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** The only thing I have had difficulty with is sometimes the maneuvering between templates and new slides, but that is probably a user error. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I answered this in question one, WeVideo made it possible for the educators in my school to go from using multiple programs to using only WeVideo. ### 14. Video editing made easy **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Diana F. | School Counselor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I like that I can add images, text, and sound to my videos easily. WeVideo makes it easy to trim my video, combine videos, and lower sound if needed. Video editing is now easy, and I do not need to download a program to my computer. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I don't particularly appreciate that I can't lower the sound by inputting a number. For WeVideo, I need to drag down the line, and sometimes it can be tricky to get it right; a section to input the desired volume would be more straightforward. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** WeVideo is user-friendly and easy to use. You will become a video editor in no time. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** My videos before were bland, had no editing, and could not add in text or images. WeVideo solves all of those things and is fast and easy to use. WeVideo makes my videos more engaging and exciting. ### 15. Amazing, Collaborative Video Creation Software Perfect for Schools **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kris E. | Instructional Coordinator of Digital Learning, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 07, 2022 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I love that students and teachers can collaborate real-time in editing videos. The built-in assets provide a way for students to create professional-looking videos with ease! **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I wish the classroom feature included the full editor. The search tool for users could be better as well, but other than that, I love everything about WeVideo! **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** Don't hesitate- it's worth it to have the paid version for students and staff! **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I don't have any problems with WeVideo at this time. The benefits are numerous! I see high school students engaging in work when they haven't before. They work hard to show what they know in an innovative way when using WeVideo! ### 16. Simple and Clean Interface, Useful for Distance Learning Video Instruction **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Dr. Karen J. | Temple CTA member, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 05, 2020 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I like that WeVideo plays nice with Google Drive, and you can export to Twitter, Facebook, or embed on your website. I also like that you can export only audio for podcasting. I have used the program for over 5 years and have seen lots of improvements. It keeps getting better and better. The business is very responsive. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** The program is cloud-based, so if your internet is sluggish, your experience may be slow, too. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** The WeVideo marketing and sales teams are great. We started out with a pilot program, which helped out early adopters explore and fall in love with the product. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I have used WeVideo to create distance learning screencasts, videos, podcasts, and GIFs to show teachers how to work programs. Lots of problems solved with one program. I have also used the color-keying for hype videos and newscasts. Students have the same interface as teachers which is great when you want to use it with a class. Digital storytelling is a key topic that is useful in the classroom. Students will respond much easier when they can create video to tell what they have learned about. The program also connects with documents in the Google Drive, so the students can refer to the instructions if they need clarification. Finally, teachers can create projects where they supply the students with clips, and the students use their creativity to tell stories in a different way. Teachers can create groups to work on the same project for collaboration. ### 17. WeVideo quick n easy **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Patty S. | T, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 13, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Options to add transitions, music, themes/backgrounds and stock media choices. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** It would be beneficial to have the choice to download directly from either Google docs or from google images. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Students that struggle with writing and completing projects love making videos and adding music that compliments their video. ### 18. WeVideo: Safe and powerful creation for all. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Susan G. | Instructional Coach for Innovation, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 07, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I like the ease of creating new content with my colleagues and students. We can screen record, make gifs, create amazing videos with green-screen effects, and the transitions are excellent. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I recommend watching the help videos to get you started so you don't miss out on the optimal way to utilize the program and features. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** We appreciate how easy it is to use WeVideo, and that it is available for iOS, Chromebooks, or PC. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** We in NYS require companies to sign off on our Ed Law 2D promise in protecting student privacy. WeVideo provides a safe, powerful tool to get kids creating. ### 19. Easy and Fun **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 15, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** The ease of editing videos. It takes the students longer to film the info than to edit and put a 2-minute informational video together. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I don't see much diversity in the picture of video choices to include with our videos. For Black History month, I had to reuse the same 2 or 3 graphics all month long. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am in charge of our school's morning announcements. I can get important news info to the students in a fun way with different graphics available. I have realized the memes I can create with some of the images to get the children's attention and brighten their day. ### 20. Educator must have **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Allison G. | Third Grade Teacher, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 27, 2022 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Playposit allows learners to have to stop and process what they are watching through interactive questions. There are many different types of questions that can be added to your video! **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** It will provide a score for students even if some have to be graded by teacher. This can upset a student who sees a score of a 30% for example who really will have a 100% once i grade the fill in the blank. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am solving the problem of students not watching a video. Playposit forces them to actually watch it and not skip ahead through the questions. It provides formative data as well! ### 21. Creating our own videos was never so easy **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Lucio A. | Assistente de Customer Experience, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** WeVideo is an excellent platform. It's got a handful of Templates that you can use to explore your creativity and inventiveness when creating your content. One exciting feature is that WeVideo is always following the latest trends. Is it October and you want to create content for Halloween? WeVideo will provide you with Halloween Templates to make your ideas flow in wicked ways. It's so complete: you can add videos from your hard drive and then work on them. Or you can record your videos using your device's camera right off the platform. Who am I kidding? You can even create Gifs! WeVideo sure deserves your time and investment. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** One small downside is that the layout of the editing window is not the most straightforward. It's a lot of information, but that's because WeVideo allows you to use a ton of video editing tools. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Many editing tools I was not able to use with other video editors, on WeVideo I have it all. ### 22. A wonderful video editing tool for schools and a 1:1 situation **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Chad F. | Instructional Technology Coach, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 09, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I really like the options between a simple editor and a more advanced one for student use. I like the options available as well. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Some of the administrator options are a bit limiting. For instance, I'd REALLY like to be able to change the Join code as needed. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** If you are in a 1:1 situation with Chromebooks, this is the way to go for video editing. I have yet to find anything that works as well and is always being updated to add new features. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** We've used WeVideo for announcements, video competitions, tutorials, etc. Because of the ease of use of the software and it's compatibility with Chromebooks, it's a "no brainer" to use it. ### 23. amazing g2 WeVideo for Schools **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Charl T. | teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 25, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** al l pf its features that can make video recording and editing more creative and provide outstanding videos **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** none so far, its features are good and helpful to users of any age especially my students will benefit from this. adding more features i think will be good. improvements in the basic features will boost this product. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** using WeVideo lessen my problems with regards to projects and tasks my students can used to record and create simple but educational. yes, the students learn more and become more inclined to video recording. ### 24. Classroom game changer!! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jeffrey B. | teacher, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I love that WeVideo is easy to use and works seamlessly with the Google environment. In this year of the pandemic, WeVideo made such a huge difference in my instruction. The videos I made for my Sports Marketing class had such a professional look because of WeVideo and the many features it offers. There are so many technology products being offered to educators during these times, but none has played a bigger role in improving my class than WeVideo. WeVideo's online format and connection to my Google Drive mean that can work on it anywhere from any device. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I wish it was easier to work with a partner at the same time editing. Changes by each partner are a bit glitchy. I don't have many complaints and it seems that the creators at WeVideo are constantly taking steps to make the product even better and easier to use. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** Get in and try it. There are also some great instructional videos on Youtube. Many of my colleagues didn't think they could create high-quality videos, but once I got them into the program and showed them how easy it was they have produced great content. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** When the year began, my school system started in a virtual environment. I needed a way to deliver content to my students that reflected my personality. WeVideo allowed me to build the relationships which are so important to the classroom environment. WeVideo is a simple platform that allows users to create professional-quality videos and edits. I have introduced many of my colleagues to WeVideo and I use it regularly in my classes. My students love it and I love that it loads directly to my Drive and Youtube accounts. ### 25. WeVideo in the classroom **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jennifer M. | Technology Integration Coach, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** The ability for kids to collaborate in real-time is invaluable and the stock footage is great. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** It can be hard to find the music and overlays/text that you see in some of the WeVideo examples in the WeVideo media. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Video announcements are all made using WeVideo, as are most school-related videos. KIds can collaborate together on projects, both working at the same time. ### 26. Great Tool for Schools **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2022 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** That this is an easy-to-use platform that allows for creativity and collaboration. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** The Creator Community is a bit difficult to navigate. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** The flipped classroom method, mostly. And using videos to walk students through assignments and skills. ### 27. WeVideo is very behind in its video editor **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I like that there are templates available to get a video started. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I very much dislike the editor. It seems very old and not modern. It's really not inuitive to use at all. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** There are better video tools on the market. Unless you get it for free, I suggest using a different video editor. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** The problem I'm solving is creating videos for my clients at an affordable rate. ### 28. WeVideo: Affordable, Robust, Flexible, Awesome **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kevin K. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 14, 2020 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Teach and edit anywhere, completely online, solid mobile apps, unreal stock library **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Can't unlink audio & video for split edits (yet?) and no masking (yet?) **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** My video production class is ready at a moment's notice to shift to full-remote teaching because kids are not tied to certain machines in the building for editing and publishing. ### 29. WeVideo for the Win **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 19, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** WeVideo is so user-friendly that even the most inexperienced people can use it. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** The only part of the video that I dislike is sometimes it is difficult to navigate and figure out where to make copies, delete, or edit your videos from. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** If you're looking for a program that is easy to use to make videos but also offers lots of options to enhance them we video is the program for you **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Using wevideo I have been able to create videos to asynchronously create professional development for my staff.

Great platform, excellent ease of use **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Christopher A. | Art Teacher, District Art Show Coordinator, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 23, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Wevideo has excellent features, and the interface is quite intuitive. It is helpful that a project can be easily finished and uploaded to multiple platforms without having to wait around to be sure the task is completed. The ease of layering extra imagery, video, text and sound is also a big plus. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I would like to see some more options for working with text. It would be nice to have more options within the available animated text choices and more new animated text available. You can't go wrong adding more tracks of music either, if I could have my wishlist. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Professional videos are necessary for anything presented digitally. Students are not going to buy-in to a poor quality video. ### 32.

WeVideo is easy to learn. I have helped many teachers and students pick up how to use it. In addition, although I use Final Cut Pro for big projects for my school, I tend to use WeVideo for most of my school's needs. It works beautifully. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** It is not as advanced as some editing software but it has more than enough for most of my needs, most of the time. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** This product is excellent. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Teachers often need to create videos for their classroom groups or the school. WeVideo gives them the tools to do their project exactly as they wish it to end up. It does not have to be outsourced to me or some other video-making person. Students learn to use it very quickly and can do so much with it if they want to. ### 33.

You do need to have some understanding of video editing and layering of video tracks to get the most out of the software. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Students have enjoyed using WeVideo to create videos showcasing their learning and understanding. ### 34.

So easy, a 2nd grader can use it. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Craig D. | Commissary Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 05, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Easy to get started. Create professional videos. Cloud-based. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Since it is cloud-based, all media must go through upload and download process. This can be time-consuming. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use WeVideo almost daily. I teach video production to 2nd graders with an award-winning book commercial video project, then I extend that with my Video Club for 3rd-5th graders, which has been running for 3 years now. The pandemic has caused WeVideo to spread throughout our faculty ranks, and I have trained our teachers to use WeVideo to record lessons. The screen share feature has helped me create how-to videos to help parents and students troubleshoot tech issues when at home. Finally, I use WeVideo to create social media posts, helping with SEL throughout the pandemic. I could not do my job without WeVideo. ### 36. WeVideo Enhances Learning **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Elizabeth W. | Technology Integration Specialist, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 20, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I love how easy WeVideo is to use. I can create enhancing and engaging videos that help students learn. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I wish they had more text features. They have some great seasonal ones, but I was hoping they would have more everyday ones. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I can easily share resources with other teachers and students who are in person and virtual. I've used the green screen to edit the background to make it feel like we are somewhere else. ### 37. Awesome for Instructional Videos! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ashley C. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2020 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** That I can combine a series of videos into one instructional video. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I love it. There is no concern....................... **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Making instructional videos of me actually teaching the lesson instead of having to find some random Youtube video. ### 38. Never more without Wevideo **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Arianna P. | Formatrice in didattica digitale, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 12, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Wevideo is very easy to use and its interface is friendly **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Nothing at the moment.

Too Good! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2020 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I really like the large number of video, image, and audio resources because they are of great quality. The formats they allow for recording are also diverse. I love how easy the program tends to be; from the first day I accessed the program, it was quite easy to learn. Likewise, the staff working in customer service is very willing. Initially, I started with the free option, but after making a video, I needed to change my account to purchase the paid version, and when I contacted Customer Service, they managed to respond to my need quite quickly and promptly. WeVideo also has templates that guide the video design. I have produced almost 50 videos, and the 1000GB capacity never seems to decrease; it's immense. Something I liked is that after making videos in which I want to include voice, it allows me to add it as a narration. I haven't used the green screen option to add backgrounds yet, but the option is available. This program has become my number one choice for making and managing my videos. I add subtitles to my videos, and that option is very important and necessary for the work I do. Adding the brand is easy too. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Keep adding more options for creative texts. But despite the ones it has, it remains excellent. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** If you are especially using a Chromebook like me, this is the best option, because we don't have to download any programs like other video editors. Everything is in the cloud, it's easy to use and has many resources of videos, images, and audios of excellent quality. I completely recommend it! **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I make videos for my church. People watch a review of the messages that are made in the church. The time for making my videos and the way it allows me to organize them, by folders, is very significant for me. ### 40. George's Review **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** George B. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 09, 2020 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Be able to teach my high school students video production online when we only have Chromebook to use. This was the only way to teach video production since we are not in my computer lab at school where we would had access to Adobe Premier Pro. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** The first dislike when I first started using this website back on August students could not work on projects together and in real-time. The update later has really enhanced my students project manage skills. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** Great website for video editing for remote learning. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** This was the only way to teach video production since we are not in my computer lab at school where we would had access to Adobe Premier Pro. ### 41. WeVideo for Schools is simply the best! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Beth R. | Instructional Tech Coord **Reviewed Date:** April 09, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** WeVideo allows for seamless collaboration during video editing-- colleague to colleague, teacher to student, student to student. Additionally, because it's cloud-based, it's always saving, and no one loses work. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** The WeVideo Free version has some limitations-- if you'd like to commit to a creativity tool for your teachers and students, invest in a WeVideo for Schools subscription. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** WeVideo for Schools has been an amazing resource for teachers for creating unlimited instructional videos during this past school year. The skills that they have learned will carry through to the future. ### 42. Love it! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** It's easy to navigate and build videos. I love the stock footage and music! Students find it easy to use too. Screencasting and voiceover capability are helpful! **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** When choosing a title slide and let's say there are multiple boxes for text, I don't like that you can't leave one of the boxes empty. When you do, the placeholding text appears as part of your title. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Screencasting is easy to use and has been helpful when flipping lessons for students. ### 43. WeVideo is user friendly, enhances my teaching abilities as well as music videos **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Newspapers | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 29, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** User friendly. I've tried Adobe Premier and I had to constantly google how-tos to figure it out. Wevideo is very easy and does the work I need. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** I am still trying to figure out how to save my working edits. When I finish a production, and then would like to return to it's working version, so I don't have to recreate the whole thing after publishing it. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Using the wealth of materials provided for audio/visual effects. ### 44. Amazing Product for Schools **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Joseph L. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2020 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** The ability for students to collaborate online with one another in a cloud based format all while creating amazing videos that exhibit their creativity in new and exciting ways! **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** The only thing I would like to see is the ability to screenshot frames of a video while editing. Knowing WeVideo however, this is probably a feature that will be here before you know it. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I have been able to increase engagement of my students and have been able to create several lessons that are based solely online. ### 45. A lifesaver for remote, in-person, + hybrid students **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jessica L. W. | Tech Integration Specialist, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 07, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** Students do not need to download any app **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Must have premium to get access to more stock footage **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** Amazing way to get students becoming creators of content; not just consumers of content. Our students are loving the voice and choice WeVideo gives them ### 46. Helpful Site **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Lars L. | Physics Teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 04, 2021 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** I like the ease of use of Wevideo. It has really helped me become a better more engaged teacher. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** There is nothing really I don't like about WeVideo. It is an amazing platform and has helped me transform my teaching. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am solving the problem of having co-seated classes and how can I reach those that are virtual students. ### 47. WeVideo, the device agnostic video editing platform. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Daniel M. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 19, 2020 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** WeVideo is a great tool, it provides you with the ability to create high-quality media including Video & Audio projects. All of this is also ran through the Web. This means it can be used on any device as all the high-end exporting is done in the "cloud". Because you can run WeVideo on any device this makes it perfect in a School Environment, as it allows our students to create video content whilst using low-powered devices such as Chromebooks. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** The main thing WeVideo is missing is the lack of Audio editing controls. It sells itself as being able to used to make podcasts etc, but I would much prefer to use a different product that has more professional tools for audio editing. This is my only concern really as at the end of the day, it is WeVideo not WeAudio. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** WeVideo allows us to give voices to the students who might never have had one before. Creating video content is very different than submitting normal work, it allows more freedom and the ability to work in completely different ways. ### 48. WeVideo - Collaborative Cloud Based Video Editing With All the Bells and Whistles **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Karen C. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2020 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** WeVideo allows multiple editors to collaborate on the same project from anywhere with an Internet connection. It syncs seamlessly with G-Suite and has a substantial stock media library built in. It is very intuitive and user friendly yet has many capabilities for more advanced users. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** Once you get hooked on premium/paid version of WeVideo you won't want to go back to the free version or use programs like iMovie ever again. **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** Get your teachers hooked on WeVideo first, once they see the capabilities they will see they benefits of rolling it out to the students. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** WeVideo for Schools has been the most useful tool during remote learning. It allows students to stay connected and to collaborate on projects when they can't be in the same physical space. One of the silver linings of this unfortunate pandemic is by learning to do collaborative work remotely, students will be better prepared for the workforce that they will be entering upon graduation. ### 49. WeVideo for Education in Elementary School **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** JoEllen W. | 5th grade teacher, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2020 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** WeVideo is easy to use- if you've used iMovie, then WeVideo will be very familiar! Staff and students use it for various activities and find it a very valuable resource. You can use it for many different tasks-- video creation and editing, screencasting, narration, GIFs, memes, etc. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** WeVideo is always evolving and trying new features! Can't wait to try to REAL-TIME collaborative projects! I'd love to see the ability to edit within a video- blur faces, remove items, etc-- more than just clipping out a segment of a recording. The only drawback is the cost. It is absolutely reasonable, however. But of course, free is better, given limited funding available for schools! **Recommendations to others considering WeVideo:** This product is well worth the cost for the paid version. It meets our diverse needs for staff and for students. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** This Spring, WeVideo proved MORE THAN worth the cost! Many of our challenges around Distance Learning were met using WeVideo. I used it to create video tutorials for staff. Teachers used it to create video lessons and quick how-to videos for students. Student used it to capture their learning in a more authentic manner. Our office staff used it to create a Teacher Appreciation Video from student-submitted photos and videos. Our administrators used it to create virtual tours for incoming students and virtual celebrations for exiting students. A tool that does all this-- WOW!! ### 50. WeVideo is fantastic for students AND teachers! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Primary/Secondary Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 18, 2020 **What do you like best about WeVideo?** WeVideo is easy to use, but has lots of features. It is a fully functional video editing app with a user-friendly interface. It works for my students and it works for me as a teacher. **What do you dislike about WeVideo?** WeVideo keeps getting better and better. Until recently, students could not work collaboratively on a project. That was a huge disadvantage in the classroom. However, that has been fixed recently, and my students are working on projects together, even when they are at their individual homes. **What problems is WeVideo solving and how is that benefiting you?** WeVideo gives students a new way to communicate their learning and their voice. It gives them creative freedom to respond in ways that we couldn't previously imagine. ## WeVideo Discussions - [How do I share my project on WeVideo with my partner?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/how-do-i-share-my-project-on-wevideo-with-my-partner) - 1 comment - [Is there a free version of WeVideo?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/is-there-a-free-version-of-wevideo) - 1 comment - [View WeVideo pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/wevideo/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-06-03+09%3A07%3A32+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=0c404da9-f62b-4de9-95ff-d3001617b4e8&secure%5Btoken%5D=0a386528607640e3394ed33a112944929658d0987425ff178128a70df889d35d&format=llm_user) ## WeVideo Features **Editing** - Audio Mixing - Transcription - Text Animation - Time Mapping - Overlays and Watermarks - Clip Editing - Titles and Captions **Platform** - Operating System - Format Compatibility - Team Review **Generative AI** - AI Text Generation - AI Text-to-Speech **Agentic AI - Video Editing** - Autonomous Task Execution - Multi-step Planning - Cross-system Integration - Proactive Assistance **Platform Features** - Remote Computer Monitoring - Website & Application Blocking - Teacher/Student Screensharing - Interactive Quizzes - Presentation Building - Instant Messaging - Student Assignment Distribution - Student Assignment Collection - Progress Reporting - Shared Content Libraries ## Top WeVideo Alternatives - [Adobe Premiere Pro](https://www.g2.com/products/adobe-premiere-pro/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (1,631 reviews) - [Wondershare Filmora](https://www.g2.com/products/wondershare-filmora/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (587 reviews) - [iMovie](https://www.g2.com/products/imovie/reviews) - 4.3/5.0 (566 reviews)
