## Reviews

### "Take care with the auto-renewal\!" — 3.0/5

> **Bruce** | *27 June 2024* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It works for what it is designed for. I used it a couple of times in 12 months to put together slideshow previews of photoshoots for clients. You can add music and it's not difficult to use.  They have lots of YouTube videos on how to use it.
> 
> **Cons**: The option to turn off auto-renewal is hidden away. Initially, they refused to give a refund after my auto-renewal had gone through.  However, I wrote another polite email pointing out that the option to turn this off was not easy to find.  They gave me 50% of my new one year subscription back.  Not great, but better than nothing and lesson learned about auto-renewals.   &#10;&#10;Interestingly, there is a Government review going on in the UK about subscription auto-renewals and it will (hopefully\!) result in companies having to give you notice before a subscription auto-renews

### "The most user friendly video maker available\!" — 5.0/5

> **Tracy** | *28 March 2025* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of use is the best thing about Animoto with the ready to roll templates and the variety of styles to choose from\! The end product is so prefessional looking\!
> 
> **Cons**: I prefer the old system where you just load all the photos in and can switch between styles. One other thing is that if you click off "Hide Animoto", it still shows animoto when you post to Facebook etc, so I have to download and upload.
> 
> It's been the best\! The customer service is amazing. The people are so helpful and it's very personal service. I never feel like a number\! There is always someone to help you, whether it's IT, accounts etc

### "Autorenewal with no warning or refund." — 2.0/5

> **Warren** | *4 February 2025* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is fairly easy to use, and has some music track options
> 
> **Cons**: They autorenew your account with no warning and will not refund.&#10;The cost of a subscription is far more than the value of the product. There are free video editors that vastly exceed the features of this rudimentary interface.
> 
> Terrible. Ripped off for a renewal when i haven’t even logged in for ove 10 months.

### "Great for simple video editing" — 5.0/5

> **Melissa** | *7 January 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I can edit videos for marketing quickly and professionally
> 
> **Cons**: The limited size of video you can upload to edit. Also text editor and logo placement is wonky. Not a one size fits all

-----

### "Video Must" — 4.0/5

> **Marco** | *8 August 2024* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Love the animation and how videos come to life.
> 
> **Cons**: Which for a greater library of videos to use on videos.
