ElevenLabs Reviews & Product Details

I like that ElevenLabs allows me to create high-quality narration for my freelance video projects without needing a soundproof booth or high-quality mic. The ability to generate studio-quality voiceovers in noisy environments, like a crowded cafeteria, is a lifesaver, and the audio is crystal clear and professional. I can quickly iterate on my projects without the need to re-record, just by tweaking the text and hitting generate. The feature to easily switch between professional corporate tones to high-energy voices in seconds is impressive. I really appreciate the startup plan and the professional plan that I've tried recently. What stands out most is how I can create very custom voiceovers by typing effects like low cinematic bass, high excitement, or even a gasp or whisper. It avoids sounding robotic or AI-generated. The multilingual model is also very helpful for translating my scripts into various accents like British or American English, saving me from paying extra for specific accents. Plus, the background music creation that matches the mood of my prompt saves me from digging through royalty-free libraries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I don't really like is when you're paying for a subscription with your own money, the fails hurt a lot more because they cost you credits. The credit drain is my biggest gripe. Every time the AI misinterprets a sentence or adds a weird glitch and I have to hit generate, it takes up my credits. If there could be a low-res preview just to test the sentences' intonation for free, that would be really good. Another issue is sometimes when changing the voiceover to a different accent, it doesn't really dilute the previous or base accent. You end up with a mixture of accents, like Indian plus Latin, which is not that great. If I'm opting for a British English voiceover, I would rather it be entirely British. Of course, there is some hallucination that happens, and if you click on generate multiple times, it shows there's an unstable long-form generation, which is a bad way to use all your credits.

The platform is incredibly intuitive to use with the largest and highest-quality voice library available. Voice cloning works surprisingly accurately, capturing nuances that other services miss. The AI Enhance feature adds natural liveliness to text that would otherwise sound robotic. Extensive customization options let me fine-tune voices for different projects and objectives, and the range of additional features keeps expanding with genuinely useful tools.

Technical support response times can be slow, especially for complex issues like when a voice clone passes verification but throws errors when trying to use it, forcing me to repeat the entire process. AI features and video/photo generation consume credits quickly, making it expensive to use everything in one platform when cheaper specialized services exist for those specific tasks.

I use ElevenLabs to create audio for my YouTube videos because recording it myself is time-consuming, and ElevenLabs can generate it really quickly. I especially like Voice Studio since it also lets me download SRT files, which makes it easier to edit captions for my videos in CapCut. Overall, I’m genuinely impressed with this program and how much time it saves me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m not sure how to add a tone of voice in Voice Studio. It would really help if the program offered some hints or guidance while I’m using it, because I’m having a bit of trouble understanding how Voice Studio works overall. I also wish there were a more personalized subscription option, since it feels a little expensive for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Personally for me, it is the best TTS out there (I mainly use the TTS), with the highest control in terms of style, emotions and speed and voice/accent options I look forward to using STT for my voice assistant that I plan on using forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Been using the elevenlabs v3 for a bit, but sometimes it provides an artifact at either the starting or the end (random note) which basically causes an issue in my API's implementation, and when I use v2, the overall realism is not achieved as achieved by v3. I assume it's because it is in alpha/experimental stage, and not stable yet, but I do hope it becomes stable soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use ElevenLabs to provide high-quality voiceovers for my video content. I specifically rely on the Speech-to-Speech feature to keep my original delivery and emotion while using a more professional-sounding voice. It has significantly cut down my recording time and improved my production value Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing structure can feel somewhat limiting for users with high-volume needs. Credits tend to be used up quickly, particularly when trying out various voices or making small adjustments to scripts. Another source of frustration is that, on most plans, unused credits do not carry over to the following month. This means that if you have a slower production period, you end up losing credits you’ve already paid for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The voices feel real

Not robotic. Not like a robot reciting a text. The pronunciation of the ElevenLabs voices is like a real speaker talking, with rhythm, pauses, and feeling.

It’s super easy to use

A programmer doesn’t have to be technical. They can copy their text ,select voice , adjust a little tiny bit ,all done.

Fast turnaround

Well, if you need a voice file in minutes, you receive it. Not in hours or some tricky process of rendering. voice cloning is surprisingly good You can make your own voice or others if you have permission. It sounds pretty realistic. It's not 100% accurate, but it's light-years ahead of everyone else.

Supports multiple languages Not only English. It deals with Hindi and Hinglish languages very well too! This becomes a huge help if you are developing local content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not being so emotional in very long scripts

Indian/Hinglish accents must be manually fine-tuned - Usage of credit may exhaust sooner than anticipated Bottom Line It has awesome voice quality. But, Not very expensive for heavy usage - Scaling not suitable for beginners – Not an all-in-one audio system - Help is adequate, not excellent Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ElevenLabs stands out for the quality and realism of its voice generation. The voices sound natural and expressive, which makes them suitable for use cases like videos, demos, and narration. The platform is easy to use, and generating audio does not require much technical knowledge. It saves time compared to manual voice recording and delivers consistent results.

Some features are limited on lower-tier plans, which can be restrictive for frequent or large-scale usage. Occasionally, fine-tuning pronunciation or tone may require multiple attempts. Pricing can also feel a bit high for individual users or small teams who need higher usage limits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What impresses me most about ElevenLabs is the remarkable naturalness and clarity of its voice synthesis. The platform consistently delivers audio that feels authentic and human-like, which makes it stand out from other text-to-speech solutions. I also appreciate how easy it is to customize voices—whether adjusting tone, pacing, or emotional nuance, the controls are intuitive and powerful. On top of that, the speed and reliability of the service mean I can generate professional-quality audio in seconds without worrying about glitches or delays.

While ElevenLabs is an impressive platform, there are a few areas that could be improved. The pricing structure can feel restrictive for users who need higher usage volumes, especially small businesses or independent creators who want affordable scalability.

ElevenLabs offers extremely natural-sounding voices with excellent prosody and intonation. The quality is consistent even with longer texts, and the API is easy to integrate into real-world applications. Voice customization, stability, and low latency make it a reliable tool for production use, not just demos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing can get quite high as your usage scales, particularly for projects that involve large amounts of audio. Some of the more advanced voice settings would benefit from clearer documentation, and having more options to control emotional nuances in the output would be a valuable enhancement.

What I appreciate most about ElevenLabs is its AI voice feature. I rely on it to create professional, natural-sounding voiceovers for my short design videos. This not only saves me time but also helps make my content more engaging and attractive to viewers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One aspect I find somewhat challenging with ElevenLabs is that the available AI voice options can occasionally feel limited, especially when I'm looking for very specific tones or emotions. I would appreciate having more variety and customization to better suit different styles of content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
