Video Editor and Movie Maker Reviews & Product Details

It is easy to edit videos for your vlog, social media and audiovisual projects. It is not expensive and has an intuitive interface. I think it's an excellent tool to start editing videos Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The options to embed text into videos, effects and transitions could be disappointing compared with other free tools, and the software doesn't have an automatic subtitles generator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use it to merge different files, for cutting and trimming. I've seen a few other editors and the interface is really simple, clean and friendly. It's real easy to create nice videos using pictures and other video files. Video can be adjusted in many ways, depending on your needs. Has a variety of backgrounds and effects to add more style.

Even though it has a lot of aspect ratio options, it would be nice to be able to use the original. Options to enhance the original audio, even just giving it more volume would be great. I don't like how sliding the bar while playing a video pauses the video. Also, a dark mode UI is expected from all software at this point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- The software is simple to use, and a beginner (which I am not) could be producing presentable videos in under a few minutes.

- The interface and functionality are intuitive, and the program is fast to load.

- The tool has a slideshow auto maker function. If you want to make an excellent animated slideshow with professional-looking panning and zooming using little to no effort there is no better program.

- The program directly integrates with the video recorder made by the same company making it exceptionally fast and straightforward to edit your video recordings on the fly and then send them onwards.

- Contains a good library of inbuilt effects, music, transitions, text, and filters.

- It's regularly updated and available from the Microsoft store (which means windows handle the updates for you, and you do not need installers).

- It’s a one-time payment, and it is well worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No dislikes; the program is made for beginners and professionals who want a quick, professional outcome/result. It could always do with more transitions and effects (that said, the program already has a plethora of them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is a really great application to edit videos. You can edit contrast, saturation, brightness, crop, add text, add music, etc. It's great. I use this to edit videos for work. I like that it is easy to download the finished video in different formats and at different file sizes/picture resolution/quality. I like that with the professional version, there are no watermarks left on the finished product and that I can submit this video without anything covering part of my video. It was so easy to upload background music to the video and I liked that I could fade in and fade out the music. The text color options were great, and there were some pictures/emojis available that really enhanced the final version of my video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I did have to pay for it but it was worth it. I wish I could also use this on my phone and tablet. I wish there were more songs/sound options available to choose from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My favorite feature of Animotica is definitely its ease of use. It is quick and easy, with only a few clicks, to add descriptive text and a sound overlay to your video - perfect for creating employee profiles or company content for Instagram and Facebook. One of my other favorite features is the ability to optimize your video for the device it will be most viewed on. For example you can select a 1:1 ratio to optimize the video for Instagram.

The only thing that I dislike about Animotica is the inability to preview your video as in the format it will appear. To explain further: when creating content for Instagram I ran into an issue with the text being cut-off due to the inability to zoom out enough within the Instagram app. This resulted in having to recreate and test the video within the Instagram app multiple times and I am not a fan of wasting time in this way.
