Calling themselves the “#1 online video master in the world,” Promo.com is definitely not kidding. In fact, they claim to have helped 1 million businesses create over 60 million videos in the last 5 years.
I wanted to see what all the hype was about, so I looked into this promo video maker to see how it handles creating explainer videos.
There are tons of stock videos here, mostly premium, but there are plenty of free options too. You can also upload your own videos and photos to use.
A pretty cool and unique feature albania phone number list is the social media calendar, which has a link to a ready-made video for each event.
There are many music tracks that can liked about be sorted by genre, instrument, mood and tempo.
What could they improve?
There are very few animated videos to choose from, so if you’re looking for a similar style, you’re better off checking out Vyond or Powtoon.
The music you choose doesn’t show up in the video editor, making it difficult to line up your cuts with the beats. It also means you can’t trim the song or add any audio transitions.
The editor’s capabilities are quite emerald greene president limited, although they may be enough if you want to make a simple video.
There is no export on the free plan – you are limited to creating 5 videos
There is no specific category for “explainer videos”, but you may find what you are looking for in the “intro videos” or “promo videos” section.
Everything in Standard, plus liked about reseller rights and the ability to manage up to 10 brands
3. Animaker
Animaker claims to be 10x better than other animation video maker software on the web. That’s a pretty compelling claim that I had to back up. This video maker software is definitely one of the cheapest options on this list, and their pre-made templates look quite modern. But there are a few things to keep in mind.
What We Liked About Animaker
Their free templates are much prettier than those available in other tools.
Offers helpful guides on how to create each video style.
They have some really nice animation ch leads styles, although they are for Premium users.
Very reasonable prices
What could they improve?
We couldn’t find a way to start completely from scratch, so instead I had to use one of their templates.
They have a voiceover feature where you paste text and the voiceover is generated from a (small) set of voices. Unless you’re going for a robotic vibe, I’d steer clear of this and either do your own voiceover or hire a professional on Fiverr.com.
No autosave function
Since the site runs on Adobe Flash, which is largely outdated due to security issues, you will have to unlock the permissions in the settings. You may have to do this several times, as it resets itself.
100 exports/month up to 30 minutes long. Custom fonts and commercial rights
4. Renderforest
Renderforest is another tool that uses AI and machine learning algorithms to help you create an explainer video. Although, like the rest, you are better off sticking to the templates provided. What is nice about this explainer video software is that they have created a community by allowing users to rate the templates they have. They also showcase videos from their users.
