Vyond stands as an exemplary tool in the realm of eLearning. Its ease of use, coupled with the rich variety of assets, props, and scenes, makes it an asset for any educator looking to create compelling content. Based on my experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Vyond to anyone seeking to enhance their eLearning initiatives. It's not just an animation tool; it's a catalyst for effective and enjoyable learning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Love Vyond for creating some really cool content for the business and not just that but also personally. It's so easy to use and navigating through the various tools is quite simple, layout is simple and yet very effective when you have to create something. I like the fact that it's not so complicated and scary-looking like other platforms where you're so overwhelmed that you don't even know where to start but with Vyond they've kept it quite simple and as they say, simplicity is the ultimate sophistication and that holds true for Vyond.

In my 20+ years in the world of instructional design, I have had the opportunity to work with several video creation software applications. And out of those applications, I would say that Vyond has one of the smallest learning curves, making it easy to produce a quick video in a short period of time. I frequently use Vyond (on average at least once a month) to create coprorate training videos, and have found our learners to be very receptive of this method of delivery. I appreciate the continuous upgrades, the variety of features, and the customer support provided via the Vyond community's bi-weekly office hour sessions and the other training opportunities provided. I look forward to expanding my use of this tool by integrating it with other course creation software such as Articulate 360. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I cancelled and I'm looking for an offline/download solution for my videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

From a tooling perspective, it would also be great if Vyond work could flow right into articulate 360 for review or to LMS systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The process of creating the video is very very long. I feel like the process should be shorter if they have some more template to start with, but they definitely give you a lot of controls. You can choose a movement for an animated character and make a lot of minor adjustment to make it perfect which I think is one of the reason it takes so long to make one single video Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Vyond's themes, text-to-speech capability, and simplicity of color changes within scenes help produce unique videos. It's cool how we can orchestrate the music, arrange the shots, sync mouth movement with text, add shapes and animations within clips, and I appreciate how Vyond lets me save scenes independently and pull scenes from previously made videos. Vyond is very useful for creating presentations within easy-to-view movies, as it introduces many new ideas that make it easy to work with slides, arrange texts and shapes, and easily set the speed of playback. The sharing capabilities also allow me to simply connect with colleagues for help in creating a great creative video.

I liked that it felt complete and if there was anything that I needed it was already there somewhere. It also has a great help section

The options were very limited. It didn't have the backgrounds, props and scenery that would have worked for the story I was telling. I had to really improvise which as very time consuming for an end product that felt a bit hokey.

Text editing and formatting is limited, not as developed as other presentation software. Automatic online saving could be improved to allow multiple users to edit presentations at once. Character models and templates could be improved to allow for more customisation to create videos distinct from others that use the same software.

I create training videos in Vyond and then upload them into a couple of different micro-training platforms. The videos address items like Customer Service/Experience, onboarding, IT Help Desk issues, answering telephone etiquette, sales process. The list is long and varied

We use GoAnimate to create animations and characters to use in our eLearning content. It is specifically used by our eLearning developers. What I love about it is that it allows use to create animations quickly and effectively...saving a lot of time and cost on animations.
Creating your own characters provides more diversity in the same style of character than other vendors. It is quick and easy to use. Small learning curve. You can import your own assets. Mouths sync to audio automatically.

While Vyond is heavily used by our marketing department; I have found many use cases in sales as well. Personally, I used the tool to create tailored videos and screenshots for prospecting, client communication/support, and for running technical demos. I know other people in my sales organization use it for similar things as well.
Offers tons of templates Extremely intuitive to use Extensive ability to import your own assets/images/files/etc. Solid support team--quick responses

Vyond allows us to take our training content and make it more exciting. I work with a lot of software, which can get really boring in a hurry. Vyond allows me to use animated characters to illustrate key concepts instead of just relying on boring PowerPoints or having the presentation be exclusively software screenshots/videos. There are a variety of characters and props to choose from, and our clients/customers really enjoy the videos since they are more entertaining to look at.

It's no longer being used by the organization because, after experiencing some success with GoAnimate, we decided to use a vendor to make animations that are even more tailored to our specific company. It was being used by the HR Department to inform the rest of the company of specific internal initiatives.
Although the library of objects is extensive in some cases, it's very limited in others. Sometimes editing could have been a little more intuitive. More voices would have been great.

We created a 3 minute song parody and had to come up with visuals to match the audio we had created. After searching for video and animation solutions, we rediscovered Vyond. It was the perfect solution to create our video song parody. In fact, the final animation now has over 500,000 views on YouTube!
Perhaps a bit more customization options more characters to use

Overall: I wholly regret the decision of purchasing this software. The extreme lack of common, everyday items for props and character animations you find yourself needing, the bugs and poor customer service make it a thoroughly disappointing experience. After spending hours trying to make a two-minute video with realistic actions and props, you find yourself forced to be creative just to cope with the lack of what you assumed would be standard. If I could do it all over again, I would have tried different software.

Overall: My first Vyond projects were change management prior to a big software implementation with a training push. The animations were engaging and could be sent out in microlearning sized chunks of 1-2 minutes of information about the new product. I've also used it to show scenarios before and after a new process or procedure, but my favorite is using it to provide animations to explain a concrete concept in a conceptual way before digging into detailed skills.

Overall: Vyond became a tool we use everyday to create infographic videos for the university's virtual courses. It allows us to present case studies or present a lot of complex data in visual form. We also have used it to create campaign videos for dengue and covid prevention. It's so much more effective to present information in this audiovisual, friendly form.

Overall: My overall experience with Vyond has been excellent. I found the controls and navigation to be fairly intuitive given some previous experience with video or e-learning creation tools. I was able to pick up using the tool quickly and become productive with it almost immediately.

Overall: Our course engagement has increased among our learners, and surveys are showing a great response to eLearnings that include Vyond videos. I've greatly enjoyed using Vyond over the years. It's one of the best tools in my training toolbox.

Overall: All of that being said, we needed to get out some informative, appealing videos out quickly for a project, and Vyond definitely allowed me to do that, with a reasonable learning curve.

Usable only if you have tons of money. Even if you have a membership you are still limited and if you want addons to your annimations you need to pay more!
