As an Instructional Designer, I highly recommend Vyond for creating engaging explainer videos for eLearning courses. Its ability to help turn complex information into simple, engaging narratives is impressive. Learning how to navigate it was very easy. It only took me about 3 days to be comfortable using it. If you ever get lost, just visit their YouTube channel or resource page on their website for tutorials. The AI features also speed up development, allowing for quick, effective content creation. Vyond’s unique graphics options add visual appeal, making learning materials memorable. Overall, it’s a valuable tool for any instructional designer looking to integrate explainer videos or even gamification into their training.
I can't think of anything. All the things that were lacking for me have been addressed in the last few months with their release of AI features.
So far, it has helped me with turn text-heavy or complicated topics into digestible pieces for learners.
I have used Vyond for many years now in addition to Articulate products. Before Vyond I was never able to create impressive videos in such a short amount of time. It is a great tool to create stand alone lessons or as assets to be used in larger projects. Plus it is just fun to use. And now with the added AI features, I can create scripts from my SME interview notes.
Working with the time line can be a little clunky.
It is a great way to frame the buisness problem and deliver the designed solution.
I have recently started using Vyond. I was super easy to learn because of its tutorial videos availabe on every controls. I was able to create my first video with ease. Thankyou for creating such a amazing tool.
I could not find any think as such which looks unnecessary.
I am able to create animated video. This is fun.
There are many things to love about Vyond, but two stick out to me the most. First is my Customer Success Manager. They are always available to help with everything from simple questions to more complicated/advanced needs. The communication provided and the scheduled check-ins also assist in making the most out of the features new and old in Vyond. Not only is the customer success manager there to help they also take back any suggestions or pain points for consideration in the next upgrade. Second is the versatility and ease of use. Vyond offers a myriad of options to create videos with ease. This is anything from the built-in templates to Vyond Go AI-created content. If you are just getting started there are so many resources and "prebuilt" content that you can use to create videos quickly. Finally, I would like to mention the time savings using the prebuilt, and GO features. My first video took me about 10 hours to complete from scratch. Now I can build an advanced video in about 3 hours.
One of the drawbacks frequently mentioned is the cost and limited access to advanced features. Fortunately, my team has enough licenses to warrant a success manager and access to most features. It would be great to see a way for smaller companies/individuals to have access to all of the wonderful features.
Time, time, time. Using Vyond has significantly reduced the amount of time required to create content. Moreover, it enables me to be more creative since I do not have to dedicate as much time to the technical aspect of building animated videos.
I love that Vyond has such a wide variety of ready-to-use props, backgrounds, and animations that make it easy to create custom clips that apply to different scenarios. Also, when needed, it is very easy to import your own icons or audio to customize your scenes. The Vyond team is also extremely helpful when learning this tool. Personal intro courses and open lines of communication make the integration of this tool into new workspaces a breeze.
Sometimes, item selection can be tricky if you have a lot going on in a scene. I do utilize the lock feature but I wish there was a feature like design layers (adobe) so I could lock or unlock multiple items at a time.
Vyond is an excellent tool to use when providing scenario examples. Especially in the customer service field, it benefits learners to see how certain skills should be applied to specific situations using vyond instead of just speaking to them about how to apply those skills. It is an effective tool for engaging learners and getting them to apply knowledge to scenarios immediately.
The set up of Vyond is very intuitive! I also love the beta tool!
It can sometimes be hard to notice how to edit the timeline, but once you get it down it works.
Easily provide information in a video format
VYOND is a fantastic way to create videos of all kinds! I love the ability to create and customize characters.
I have not yet tried the newer features yet think it would be great if characters could interact more with props.
VYOND helps me create comprehensive videos from scratch.
The style, the intuitive interface and UX, customize how characters look and what they're wearing, the pre-generated scenes
There are some really specific poses/actions (like drinking sake) as options and some more common ones that aren't options. I also don't like how added sound (like voiceovers) fade out at the end a scene if it's the last scene at that time
Making evergreen, easy-to-modify videos that are instructional or presenting information. By using a character and illustrations, we can easily make updates as needed vs. re-recording an entire video. It also makes the videos fun to watch and engaging.
I love the templates (create more, please), and I love how easy it is to customize the look and voiceovers.
Larger thumbnail images of the character options would be nice.
Vyond helps to solve the problem of story-telling. Our service quality is important to us. We can convey that in a video so our customers can get a better sense of who we are and how we do things.
