    Out of no where a bunch of free characters and props upgraded all the way to Biz accounts only! Making all of my PowToon videos I had already created completely useless! I just upgraded to a Pro account 3 days ago and spent over $200 and deeply regret it! Find another software to use the company has no respect for their users. A Pro account is entirely worthless now as they removed most of the features! I wasted 3 days of work and $200, to be screwed over by the company! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    There are articles that "explain" how to do things these articles automatically assume that you have a good hold on how to navigate the site as they do not show how to insert items to how to get to a certain option from the home page. A video that shows how to access certain options from the home page would be ten fold more helpful. It is not as intuitive to learn how to use as some may have you believe. But if you have 3-4 extra hours a day and a lot of patience then I believe you would master this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    Awful customer service. You can't just sign up for a year but have to agree to annual payments from your credit card. One year later they charged $128 to my card with no notice. I contacted them immediately and they agreed to refund my money and cancel the contract. Three weeks and several more emails promising a refund I still have received nothing. Next step is to call my bank and file a complaint against PowToon. Lousy customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    En lo que he podido utilizar esta herramienta, me parece que es muy buena opcin si se desea hacer entretenidos videos o presentaciones muy creativas, ya que cuenta con muchas opciones que ayudan a poder crear contenido de manera mucho ms original que en las herramientas que se usan tradicionalmente. Esto, ayuda mucho a captar ms la atencin del pblico.

    I was impressed by the animations features for presentations. Useful for educational and business purposes, I think is a tremendous help for students with learning disabilities and people who tends to be shy and anxious during public speaking. The avatar can guide the audience while presenting and the voice can be easily recorded or uploaded by the user.

    The stripped videos it produces are an embarrassment and having a tier for education is a waste of money and no one should use it.

    I HATE the fact that it is basically unusable due to the fact that it is so slow and keeps reloading the page.

    My slides keep just disappearing into thin air. I save constantly, but when I go back in, one or two slides are missing, I recreated them, and I go back in and a different one is missing. And this just wasn't a one time thing. It's happened many times, and I've contacted supported and they tell me things like "clear your browser cache". No way! This is a bug, and I have better uses for my time!!!

    Overall: It has been very positive and was really a self-service platform. I have yet to deal with any person on the customer support side, we purchased the tool and onboarded completely independently and that is a testament to the UX/UI team at Powtoon. It is very straightforward and simple to use right away!

    Overall: I don't like being on camera and this solves that by making entertaining informational educational videos. They're all stored on Powtoon so don't have to store them on my computer.

    The logos and icons are really easy to understand! Quite a lot of features, so takes some time to load and can glitch, but the features are amazing! Photos, icons, themes, backgrounds, shapes... loads! there are a lot of benefits from going Premium, but I still think that the free version is good! Have fun guys!

    Too expensive. After they changed to HTML4 I've lost all my previous work and now I cannot afford to use it again.
