There are many templates but they all appear to specific and not generic enough. > > I am really happy with my first attempt to create a video from a slide presentation and would like to achieve more. ----- ### "Class Act in visuals" — 5.0/5 > **karl** | *27 May 2026* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I liked most about Powtoon was the overall quality of the platform. The animations were smooth and professional, the templates offered a wide variety of creative options, and the user interface was intuitive and easy to navigate. The export quality was consistently high, making it easy to produce polished presentations that impressed my audience. I especially appreciated the flexibility to customise every aspect of my projects, allowing me to create unique and engaging content tailored to my needs. > > **Cons**: I honestly found very few faults with Powtoon. However, if I had to mention something, it would be that some advanced features are only available on higher-tier plans, which might be limiting for users on a budget. Otherwise, my experience was overwhelmingly positive, and I did not encounter any significant issues or frustrations while working with the platform. > > Very goodMy overall experience with Powtoon has been excellent. From start to finish, the platform made it easy and enjoyable to bring my ideas to life. The combination of high-quality tools, creative flexibility, and reliable performance made a noticeable difference in the quality of my final presentations. I would highly recommend Powtoon to anyone looking to create engaging and professional animated content, whether for business, education, or personal projects. ----- ### "Powtoon an awesome tool for anyone in L\&D" — 5.0/5 > **Heidi** | *15 May 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Powtoon is a great for creating educational video explainers that can be used across diverse learners. I love the templates, and easy to use functionality, and now with all the AI tools coming on board it is helping decrease time in development and improve the quality of my videos. > > **Cons**: There is nothing that I don't like. Powtoon has all the features I was looking for. The only thing I would offer in terms of feedback, is keep improving your offer and adding to your templates. Using great templates helps users to learn and have the confidence to create their own. It also inly has basic audio editing and I would loveto see a separate audio editor dashboard. > > My overall experience with Powtoon has been excellent m. It was great to have a 15 min intro with a product developer, who gave me lots of tips. Customer support is available of required. There are also great demo videos on the features. I am having alot of fun with Powtoon and have created several short video explainers and have had good initial feedback from managers and learners on the videos created to date. By paying for a subscription you have alot more options and it represents value for money, if you are not an expert in video creation. ----- ### "Powtoon - worth a try but has limitations" — 3.0/5 > **Gina** | *21 April 2026* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Some good templates. Reasonably intuitive to use. Was able to adapt the powerpoint templates easily and convert into videos easily. Best working feature of Powtoon. > > **Cons**: The AI generated videos were poor and inconsistent from slide to slide. Didn't move logically and consistently from slide to slide based on the narrative given eg started in a car in daytime in urban surroundings but next slide would be a different car at night in the countryside\! AI needs improving. > > Very good if there was a template which was suitable. Reasonably easy to use that feature and easy to convert into video. Would like a wider range of templates covering more topics and themes. Would like it to cater for thsoe of us who want to use it for a varied range of purposes rather than just business/education videos. ----- ### "Powtoon Review" — 5.0/5 > **Patti** | *21 April 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like all the new features. It is still the easiest video editor I have found\! Their customer support is at the gold level, and it is a fabulous value for the money\! > > **Cons**: I wish we could upload a pdf and have it make a video\! The adkar lab throws in too much AI. It is all editable so it isn't hat big of a deal\! > > 5 star, excellent experience. I have used the product for many years and am just now returning to using it regularly and love it\! ----- Page: 1 / 18\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/140321/powtoon?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/140321/powtoon) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | ko | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
