What do you like best about Vev?

It's an active experience for the reader. Print is great, and I've been an art director for print for almost 40 years, but print magazine readership and subscribers are slowly going away ... and in some cases, they're quickly going away. So going online, or giving up seems to be the only two choices. And if you're going online, then you need to deliver a compelling experience. I believe one can provide a compelling experience with VEV. You can crank-up the experience and have all kinds of movement (including video) on the screen, or you can go subtle, or even static. You've got choices. Also, VEV manages the software updates, so that's one thing I don't have to worry about or make a separate payment for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vev?

It's s steep learning curve if you're used to thinking "PRINT" only. But I was able to make the transition, and I've been in the print business for 40 years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Now I can tell scrollytelling stories as seen on NYTimes without developers, coders and designers"
5/5
What do you like best about Vev?

There are other solutions around the web for scrollyteliing but non of them is easier to start and affordable as Vev. I have built my first story without spending tons of time understanding the tools and working environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vev?

Should have more templates to start with based on the most popular scrollytelling examples. Sometimes I feel that should have been done more for making the whole experience more helpful (more templates, more tools and tutorials) for independent newsrooms and journalists.

"Vev Beginner"
5/5
What do you like best about Vev?

I have been using Vev for a little over a year for publishing and it's a convenient way to design and animate web pages without having extensive html coding knowledge. Support staff is helpful when needed, reachable via in-app messenger. Tutorial and training videos have also been helpful, and I look forward to that available library expanding with time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vev?

Sometimes difficult to troubleshoot problems that appear differently in desktop, mobile and tablet views. As I learn more on building pages and templates, my ability to diagnose errors will hopefully improve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"You can actually make those cool sites you always wanted to make"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Vev?

I still think that websites can be creative-- VEV lets you access your creativity without getting bogged down in code. All those expensive-looking scrollytelling sites? (think New York Times or Apple) Now you can make those. Quickly and easily! It truly is the only platform of its kind, and it keeps getting better. Their Discord community is very helpful and positive and provides a sense of community and support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vev?

Sometimes it seems to be designed for specific uses, when it really could be used for so much more than business or academic websites. Vev is powerful enough to use for making more than just websites, the features could be used to make interactive media and art as well - maybe even expanded to create VR applications. I'm hoping they expand one day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic for building modern campaign sites (with no code experience)"
5/5
What do you like best about Vev?

VEV is easy to use for marketing people with no code experience. I have been working a lot in VEV for the last 6 months and I can quickly make modern-looking campaign sites with all the elements that I need. I love that it is intuitive and has a good user experience. It is great fun to explore all the possibilities within VEV. It is easy to showcase video and audio which is important for us to create a vibrant site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vev?

I would wish there were easy access to Pardot forms (Salesforce B2B email marketing system). I have seen that there are Marketo forms. But I am sure that it could easily be fixed if we asked for it (and we might do that). There is not much to complain about. I am very happy to use VEV. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great! Simple and easy to use"
5/5
What do you like best about Vev?

Baked in animation and other tools made it very easy to build a marketing web page but it can be used for many types of pages! I completed building my marketing page after only 8 hours! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vev?

It's pretty new do there may not be the features you're looking for but they seem to be adding features fairly recently. If you know how to code you can also just code the feature that is missing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very dynamic platform, needs more testing"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Vev?

Vev's capabilities for interactive storytelling are very exciting—typewriter text, click to expand, scrollytelling blocks, etc—which is why we went with the platform. We can make content-first landing pages fairly quickly and bring our editorial to life with their features. I love being able to adapt content for viewports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vev?

We were one of the early users and had to rely on chat a lot for features that weren't working or malfunctioning. When they push updates live, our older pages get impacted and we have to redesign components sometimes. I would also love to see more image gallery options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
