The best part of WeVideo is the flexibility to be as artistic as you want. There are templates for you to start with or you can start with a blank canvas. Students as young as Grade 1 have used WeVideo with success.

Pros

I make all kinds of videos for education. Some are how-to videos, some are informational videos, and some are celebratory videos. WeVideo is so incredibly easy to use. Uploading content to edit is so easy. And I love the professional-looking quality of the completed videos. WeVideo also has a great library of images, videos and music that I can use as well.

Cons

I can't think of anything that could be improved!

I am so very happy we found this product in a time when personal communication had become rare and impossible at the school level. Our Friday Wrap-up videos are the highlight of each week.

Pros

I love that I can come back week after week and build from my own template, making and creating updates, or squeezing in new content without spending 10+ hours to accomplish a high quality video. I also love the unique editing capabilities and robust stock video/ photo availabilities!

Cons

I am looking forward to some updates with the animated text features. As a weekly user, I am always looking for ways to spice up my videos that are text-dependent.

I was unhappy with how the customer support dealt with this issue and how they refused to issue a refund simply because I asked for a refund through PayPal. They claimed they cannot issue it because of that, which is ridiculous to say the very least. The matter is now still open but my decision on whether to ever use this service again let alone recommend them is short and final - NO.

Pros

It's relatively easy to use and has good templates.

Cons

The pricing is deceptive and when on a free trial, you are not being told how much the features you get to use in the free plan would cost in paid plans. When you thus upgrade, it can happen what happened to me - you spend hours working on a video and then want to upgrade to get rid of their logo, only to discover that half of the video is gone, because you'd have to upgrade to the most expensive Business plan to keep those. There is no warning, no nothing that could help you avoid this and maybe decide to just keep the logo instead. It's really, really unacceptable how this is done.

Pleasant experience. The main question our team was asked: Would this be suitable for student use? My response: Yes indeed.

Pros

Intuitive layout. Lots of features. short learning curve.

Cons

I use SCREENCAST-O-MATIC and a feature they include that I use ALL THE TIME: Narration Silence CUT or SPEED UP? With a single click I can cut all the silent segments in a video. In WeVideo I have to find and trim each segment one. at. a. time. So my production time is higher when I use WeVideo.

I continue to be impressed with WeVideo and the support they provide to users. This organization is positive and focused on creating the best product they can. They are also advocates for education, which has resulted in improved product features to support students and teachers.

Pros

I love that WeVideo is user-friendly and accessible for people who have varying skill levels with technology. It can be used to make videos look incredibly professional and has features/tools for advanced creation. This tool is an essential tool for distance and remote learning and can enhance the educational experience for students in any space.

Cons

I wish the sound tracks had more editing capabilities. This part of the webtool is a little more rudimentary, but improvements are always being made with this tool.

Reviewed on 2019-06-20

Pros

Cloud-based, cross-platform! Not device dependent. Everything is stored in your account in the cloud, so you can access it anywhere you have wifi. Works on chromebooks, tablets, PC, Mac, iOS, and Android! Mobile apps available, too! The education version even has an entire library of media for students to use, royalty-free!

Cons

I would like to see some more advanced features for audio editing.

My overall experience with WeVideo is great. This is a very helpful tool for the creator. It has a very reasonable cost compared to other tools. I would say WeVideo is extremly useful platform for any business owner to develop.

Pros

I must say that video editing becomes very easy with WeVideo and store the work quickly because it offers cloud storage. I am using this tool for a long time because my clients are quite happy with all the presentations. I think professional-looking videos with voice-over now a matter of few minutes. I like the fact that WeVideo is packed with a lot of important features such as video clips, images, music, animations, and element. Also, you can upload your own selected image, video, music, etc this is amazing. This software enables you to work online so, you don’t need to download it which is very convenient.

Cons

I wish if they could have more elements and audio edit option to be more creative with the design. WeVideo offers only 5 minutes of video download with a free version. If anyone wants to download longer videos then they need to go for a paid version which not always affordable.

When our administrators can use a video editing software to create a virtual celebration for exiting students and a virtual tour for incoming students, teachers can create screencasts of activities to help students understand what to do, students can record a narration of their work, office staff can create a video from student-submitted photos and videos for Teacher Appreciation Week, and tech staff can create video tutorials for staff, all with the same product, you know you have a robust product! We love WeVideo!

Pros

WeVideo is a versatile, easy to use tool for staff and students to create and edit videos. We used it A LOT this past spring during Distance Learning! Our staff has used it for screencasting, narration, and creating videos for instruction. Our students use it for creating videos to show their learning. This is a valuable resource for us!

Cons

WeVideo is always adding new features-- so when there's room for improvement, I know they're working on it!
I would love to see real-time collaboration on a shared project.
I would also love to see the ability to edit something within a video, not just clip a segement.

Pros

WeVideo is easy to use and helps even beginning users create a professional looking final video. I love the stock library of images and the software works well with many formats of video when you upload your own. My students can find the pictures and video clips they need for their projects in a safe environment. It is very easy to save and share projects. Plus you can use the same software to record video, a screen cast and a podcast.

Cons

You can find tutorials online for WeVideo. It would be nice to have help feature or FAQ section available within in the editing screen.

What is NOT to like? There are so many features in WeVideo that allow you to create incredible and professional grade videos including green screen chroma Key, animation, but the BEST part is the thousands of media clips, music, etc. in their extensive STOCK LIBRARY!

I use this software with kids grades 2-5 and have trained teachers on it during the pandemic. I have used it for kids to demonstrate learning, to show parents how to be their own tech support, and to promote our school through social media. Very user friendly.

I have truly appreciated getting to use the program, for professional and personal projects. I am a convert from having previously used Adobe, Apple, and Macromedia software, and would happily continue to use WeVideo for video creation.

Pros

One of the best features of WeVideo is accessibility. I have the ability to access it via the web, on multiple devices, and on slower connections. It is very user friendly, with the ability to get in right away and start creating.

Cons

To fully unlock the benefits of the program, which there are many and for great value, you must pay to unlock the full contents. While it was beneficial to have a District that covered the cost, not all teachers are that lucky.

My overall experience has been great! I use WeVideo at least once a month to create educational videos for an Elementary school and I have not been disappointed one time. The program is easy to use, from uploading content to edit and create to downloading your final product. I recommend WeVideo to all my colleagues to use.

Pros

WeVideo is very easy to use, create and be creative with. Access to libraries of royalty free video clips, music and imagery married to your personal uploads allows for a seamless creative process. Easy to use tools to create movies or audio and quality customer support when needed.

Cons

Moving clips around in the editor could be easier when needing to adjust or move multifile clips or images. Copying clips or audio to move in editing would also be a beneficial tool.
