"Built video in 10 minutes!"
What do you like best about Lumen5?

So this was one of the easiest programs to learn from the very beginning. Created a free account (which is amazing to have that option this day in age). Added a few photos from a project, tossed in some text and it basically built itself! A few changes here and there and clicked finish. It is now rendering! While I was writing this review, the video finished and it is amazing! 49 seconds long and I can load it directly to Facebook. Thanks Lumen5!!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lumen5?

Couldn't figure how to add text after the initial text upload. Finally figured out that you can add text right onto a new photo that you drop in. Outside of that, first impression is that this is a program that I might actually use on a regular bases for our small business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Ultimate Quick Fire Video Creation Tool"
What do you like best about Lumen5?

Lumen5 is one of those tools you'll be so happy to discover and forever will use to create eye-catching videos to build your brands' online presence. Lumen5 has some really great features for helping to create videos to help tell a story and animated quotes. The best thing for me is the simple step-by-step process the software guides you into creating your videos. I love the fact you can take text-based content and turn it into a video within minutes. Also love the featured assets, from graphics, Gifs, videos and music that you can add to really pack a punch with your message. Before I forget, I love the AI feature that generates images based on the text that's populated - genius! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lumen5?

Lumen5 are really good at listening to what their audience wants and I know they will get there as they're relatively still very young. At present moment my main issue is the length of time it takes to render a video after creation. I also wished that the option to create a video from scratch didn't have a load of content from Lumen5, it makes it a little confusing. Would be nice from the start from scratch feature did not to have any text in it so I could add it myself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best social media video platform"
What do you like best about Lumen5?

Lumen5 is the best video creation platform available. I feel happy and grateful to have been one of the first users in the community. I remember that I needed to create videos from my content for #LuxuryDistrict on Instagram and Youtube, but I did not know how to start.

Suddenly I received an invitation from Mike, introducing the launch of the platform!

I love you guys! I wish you all the blessings and success ever! Congratulations! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lumen5?

I did not like it when the ability to create the pŕopria color palette for branding was only made for premium users. But its alright! I know that you are evolving every day! This matters! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing video tool that's easy to use"
What do you like best about Lumen5?

Lumen5 lets you create videos from blog content. I've been able to make lots of great social media content and videos for existing blog posts and landing pages. The tool is very easy to use, and the free options are great. I love the music library and images available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lumen5?

The customization of each slide within the video can take a while to change. I spend an hour sourcing the right images and finding the right ways the text should be presented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lumen5 is too incredible and easy to use, has many functions to achieve incredible finishes incluse in the free version, and is perfect for creating marketing content.
