Vyond Reviews & Product Details

I like the versatility VYOND provides in breaking down complex topics into quick, easy explanations. Although VYOND is easy to understand, there is a skill gap in making good videos. VYOND does a great job of providing training to help you maximize your skills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest complaint I have about VYOND is that the preview response time can be very slow. My broadband is very strong at home and at my office, yet I've often experienced lag at both locations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s the easiest, fastest way to create engaging training videos. Flexible, intuitive, and fully customizable, so every video is perfectly branded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to be able to interact with the timeline more. For example, I'd like to be able to drop a cue placeholder so I can work out the timing of objects a little more easily. I would also like to set a default font to save some effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s easy to use and helps me create great videos in no time. There are plenty of options, and they keep improving and expanding what they offer. The AI features are also a great way to speed up productivity and get more done faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’d like to see more animation styles beyond the current options. It would be great to have one that feels a bit more professional, and another that’s more authentically “anime” in style...something along the lines of Studio Ghibli or similar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Vyond is user-friendly. It's easy to pick up and doesn't require extensive video editing or mass communication skills. There are many templates, AI integrations, and how-to guides that make completing a project easier as the job is already halfway done. I also appreciate that Vyond values customer feedback and often rolls out new product features, which keeps it competitive. For example, Vyond has released, as of end of May 2026, a number of new product feature releases that were previously on my wishlist such as the ability to hide specific assets.

A common complaint I hear about Vyond is around their lack of 'realistic' avatars. Some audiences see the 2D animation style as child-like. The AI avatars are a step in the right direction though. Secondly, the ability to preview text-to-speech before using credit to generate the voice would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to create various content and styles. I love the feature that lets you save characters and scenes to your library for easy access in other projects, because this saves me hours of work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While there are plenty of elements to choose from, it doesn’t seem like any new ones have been added recently. My work within my organization is fairly repetitive, so I end up relying on the same elements again and again. It would be great if updates included new icons and other elements to help keep things feeling fresh.

Also, why isn’t the AI text-to-image feature available for the animated characters and visual elements that make up the majority of the platform? The feature isn’t close to where it needs to be yet, but it would be far more useful if it could generate visual elements and scenes for the animated version, since that’s where most of the platform’s value is for me.

The AI video generator is a huge time saver! We use a lot of dialogue reenactments / scenarios for training our staff and the "conversation" and script features within the AI tool are very helpful. I still make edits to them in the full editing mode, but the amount of time I save over starting from scratch is invaluable.

The UX experience within the editing mode is still helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would just recommend pushing the AI capabilities even further and improving the voices on the Professional tier Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Vyond's versatility with character creation, props, and animations. There are so many options, and they keep adding more frequently. The help guides are very clear, and when I need assistance, the support team is fast and helpful. I also found the initial setup to be very easy. I had a clear walkthrough with a representative and could figure most things out on my own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not being able to easily organize my assets can be a small pain at times. It would be nice to have personal customizable folders in every area, especially uploads. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Vyond for instructional design to create engaging e-learning content. I like the fact that there are so many options for gestures, scenes, and camera shots. Vyond's user-friendly interface makes it easy to put everything together quickly, and the initial setup was really easy with its simple and easy-to-understand UI.

One challenge I've encountered is how difficult it is to transition an avatar smoothly from one gesture or action to another. The movement feels abrupt and creates a jarring effect that can be distracting to the viewer. I'm also frustrated by the timeline behavior when working with video and audio clips. If I carefully position all of my audio files first and then begin adding or adjusting video clips, the audio clips shift along with the video. This forces me to continually reposition audio that was already placed correctly, resulting in unnecessary rework and a much less efficient editing process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like using Vyond for building videos from scratch and using Vyond Go to create fast videos for delivering bite-size information. I also appreciate the ability to choose between human avatars and animated ones. This feature impacts the effectiveness of my videos significantly, as animated avatars are fun and playful, helping better absorb information during long videos, e-learnings, and training starters. Human avatars are more instructive and ideal for customers or official information management. I love transforming simple presentations into movies as visual aids are incredibly helpful in delivering information through my imagination. Additionally, the ease of starting with Vyond was notable once the account was created. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the text/image to video clip feature, but it is a bit short in duration, and I can't give the generated product any movement of my own. 5 seconds of video clips is too short, and you need to create more than one to be used in a video. It is also a 'locked' outcome, and I wish to have more control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Vyond to create animated eLearning content videos, which makes the content more engaging and easier to understand. I believe this keeps learners interested and increases knowledge retention. What I have been enjoying the most is using AI tools on Vyond, avatars, and the SA voices, which work really well for our training videos. Ultimately, Vyond is way easier to use and has better features than other platforms we tried. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the character library could use some upgrades. Currently, the styles are quite limited; it would be fantastic to have a larger selection of modern, high-quality cartoon characters. Additionally, having more layout and scene options would be beneficial, particularly for compliance, technical, and soft skills training. This would provide us with much more variety and flexibility when creating content. The AI animation feature can feel a bit repetitive. Characters keep doing the same moves or gestures too often. Plus, sometimes their actions don’t really fit with what they’re saying or the context. If we had more varied and realistic actions for the characters, it would make the videos way more fun and engaging. It's not so easy, I must say. I still struggle a bit with Vyond. But the initial setup was straightforward; you really need to know what you're doing. As a new student, one might not find it easy to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
