"Effortless Idea-to-Video Creation That Saves Time"
4.5/5
What do you like best about HeyGen?

What is best for me, is how easy it is to quickly turn an idea into a video with minimal effort. I've used it to make quick demos and illustrate workflows, and it has saved so much time, rather than having to record and edit. The avatars and voiceovers are pretty good for everyday usage; in an internal context or quick presentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyGen?

It's a little difficult to get your way around at the beginning and take a little while to understand how all of the different features work. The avatars are okay, they still look a little artificial and need tweaking occasionally for decent output. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Avatar Creation, Needs Realism Upgrade"
5/5
What do you like best about HeyGen?

I use HeyGen to create an avatar that speaks a script in a YouTube video clip. HeyGen saves me time in creating sets, location, and hiring personnel. I find it easy to use; I just upload my photos, write my script, and select the video resolution, and it takes less than a minute. The initial setup of HeyGen is very easy, with almost nothing required. I like that I can use a ready-made avatar template with sound or upload my own photo and use a pre-made sound or clone my own voice. I switched from using Gemini and ChatGPT for generating videos and sound because they couldn't do it as well as HeyGen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyGen?

Overall, I like it, but the avatar's face could be improved to look more realistic when speaking, based on the uploaded photos, and the gestures could be made more human-like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A polished way to turn scripts into scroll-stopping videos."
4.5/5
What do you like best about HeyGen?

HeyGen makes AI video creation feel easy and approachable, with realistic avatars and a simple workflow that helps you turn ideas into polished videos fast. It’s especially useful for creators and businesses that want professional-looking content without a complicated setup, though the pricing structure can take a little getting used to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyGen?

I dislike that HeyGen’s credit system can feel restrictive and hard to gauge upfront, making it less straightforward to understand what you’ll actually use and pay for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Talking Head Videos, Needs Better Image Generation"
5/5
What do you like best about HeyGen?

I really appreciate HeyGen for its ability to create talking head videos and characters. I also like that I can create scenes that work as voice over or talking head videos. It's been pretty good for developing marketing videos for my company, and I find it easy to set up. I think it's perfect for making talking head videos, and that's what I primarily use it for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyGen?

I need to edit the voice as each scene comes out for correct pronunciation. It's not that great as an image generator. You really need high quality pictures with plain backgrounds, centered of your character, which is really hard to get unless you have Higgsfield. Generating a perfect picture of somebody is pretty hard. Or you could just take pictures, but that's also time-consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Unmatched Tool for Online Advertising"
5/5
What do you like best about HeyGen?

HeyGen is very useful for me to create online advertising on platforms like Facebook, TikTok, and Instagram, and I create wonderful videos by following the instructions I give it. It is the best tool I have found on the market and the one I am most satisfied with. Additionally, it is very easy to use and perfectly understands my instructions, which saves me a lot of work and time when creating posts, videos, and posts. I am delighted with HeyGen because it really does what I ask, which saves me a lot of effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"HeyGen’s Amazing, Natural-Looking Videos with a Near-Flawless Workflow"
4.5/5
What do you like best about HeyGen?

HeyGen is constantly evolving and improving the product. it has been great to see the tool evolve from the early days. Back then, it was a fun tool but now, it is a powerful mechanism that helps you reach other audiences beyond the typical email or one pager. The videos it creates are flat out amazing. The whole process is easy and it performs as close to flawless as it could. The underlying AI seamlessly maps your facial and mouth movements so the end result looks natural.

What do you dislike about HeyGen?

it can be time consuming if you are conducting a large video. it can get expensive if you want it done faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"HeyGen Makes Voice Cloning and Video Narration Effortless"
5/5
What do you like best about HeyGen?

HeyGen allows you to create a clone of your voice and use it to narrate videos that you can create with your own video or video clips that are available through HeyGen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyGen?

The music clips and video clips are available through free sharing sites. The sites are great and provide a great variety of music and video, but you can run into copyright issues via YouTube that you must dispute. They are usually released, but it takes some extra effort to get this done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"HeyGen Makes Avatar Video Creation Simple, Professional, and Time-Saving"
5/5
What do you like best about HeyGen?

What I like most about HeyGen is that it gives creators like me the possibility to bring ideas to life in a simple and professional way. I created my own avatar and avatars of the main characters from my children’s book, which now help me produce educational videos for kids and social media content for my project. HeyGen saves me a lot of time and makes video creation feel much more accessible, even without a large team or studio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyGen?

The main thing I miss in HeyGen is an easier way to create videos with two avatars having a natural conversation with each other. I tried to find a clear solution for this, but it was not very easy for me, so perhaps more tutorials or a simpler workflow for multi-avatar scenes would be very helpful. I would also appreciate a more intuitive UX in some parts of the platform, although overall the tool is still quite simple to use. One more improvement would be having the interface available in more languages, especially Polish, which would make the platform even more accessible for non-English speaking creators.

"Astonishingly Realistic Avatars and Easy Explainer Video Creation"
5/5
What do you like best about HeyGen?

I'm astonished at how well this works. The avatars are well varied, and can almost always pronounce wildly difficult words from chemistry and medicine. There are enough avatars and settings to choose from that surely you can find one (or several) that will work for your requirements. We're using it for explainer/training videos in a prototype, but would feel comfortable going to production with them wherever a budget doesn't allow for real actors. Download and usage is super easy, the website is friendly and relatively easy to navigate (there's a tutorial mode to help you along if you find you even need that). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HeyGen?

I wish there were a more inexpensive plan for prototype/MVP usage. I'd be happy to leave their watermark on such videos, or even be stuck at the lower (720p) resolution, if I could just generate much more of them than the free plan allows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
