Droplr is very useful in any kind of visual work, particularly if there are more people involved and they need to follow the creation process. It allows the team to be on the same page. It is also very useful when dealing with clients without design training since we can show visually what we intend to do. Teachers, instructors, and even technical support people can make good use of Droplr since it makes easier to share screencasts, to capture screens for tutorials and to solve clients' doubts.Incentivized
Powtoon is a very capable suite of tools that help a developer create training videos that look way better than they should. I've used it to create fun, attention-getting commercials for new topics, I've used it to enhance what would otherwise be boring step-by-step tutorials, and I've used it to create all manner of "Explainer videos" for all kinds of topics - this is where it EXCELS! In my opinion, its biggest limitations are limits on imported video (max of 90 seconds), which mean that you have to do a lot of extra work to break up and import anything of substantive length. And because it presents your personal library of imported images and audio ONLY sequentially, it's VERY LIMITED in the re-usability of those assets - it's way faster to just import a new instance of an image and audio than to try to find it in your library.Incentivized
Simply moving files onto the menu bar icon is the fastest way to get files on their way.The link to copy is automatically saved to your clipboard, so while I'm writing the email to send the file, I simply paste and I'm done.Turns out, I check often if the file has been downloaded, as it allows me to followup and speed up the process if needed.Incentivized
Powtoon is very easy to use; no previous experience is needed.It has a lot of features (images, backgrounds, videos, sounds, etc.)It automatically saves your workAfter you have created your video, you can download it to your computer in different resolutionsIncentivized
Startup bug (Mac) - Even though I select Droplr not to start up with the computer, it still does. It's been months and they still haven't fixed this. It's very frustrating.The Windows version doesn't allow me to select an area of my screen to record - one has to record the entire screen.Though it may look like it in their settings, setting up SSL isn't as easy as clicking the button. I still don't quite understand how to do it.Incentivized
Comparing it to Vyond, it is more time consuming to make videos. The timeline could be easier to understand.They recently started upcharging to use some scenes. This has made updating some of my videos challenging as the scenes that were included as part of my plan are now an upgrade to use.They don't have a voice over option. I have actually taken some of the videos out of the platform over to Vyond to add voiceover.Some items they have introduced, like turning a powerpoint into a video really don't work.Incentivized
It solves a lot of everyday problems in our creative department and enhanced our workflow.Incentivized
Because I find it especially easy to work with, compared to alternatives.Incentivized
I've only had to reach out to Droplr support a couple of times and they've been quick to getting back to me.Incentivized
I have never needed the support feature. As I mentioned, everything was intuitive to me however I have taught myself Adobe, Final Cut and iMovie so most of these programs became intuitive.Incentivized
Lightshot Screenshot provides the same screenshot functionality as Droplr, but with no cost. Lightshot Screenshot also allows you to edit a photo and can upload your photo either to the cloud or just paste it in an email/Slack/anything else to your client. There are very little go-betweens and a lot more flexibility. Droplr was chosen by my company, not me. If I had chosen a screenshot software, in retrospect, I would have chosen Lightshot Screenshot. Droplr was fine. Lightshot Screenshot is killer, though. Incentivized
Powtoon has the advantage over traditional video editing software in terms of the library of characters and elements that can be easily dragged and dropped onto the canvas. Powtoon is easier to use and has a more intuitive user interface than Vyond.Incentivized
I use Droplr every day and it's been a huge boost for productivity since I never need to think about how a screenshot will be shared. It's just built in and so easy.I really wish Droplr had an Android app.Incentivized
We don't have to spend money on traveling to a location to do an actual live shoot.I'm spending less time on hand animating videos.We used these to create teaser videos for our professional development offerings. I believe because of the captivating graphics, we had a lot more people driven to our site.Incentivized
