Renderforest Video vs. VEED.IO

I used Renderforest to create an intro for my new YouTube show. I had made an error while cropping a logo. Customer service answered me immediately and was tremendously understanding and proactive. They fixed the error I had made and sent me back my finished product within minutes. I will definitely be using them again.

VEED is a very simple and effective platform to create podcast videos and short video clips for social media marketing and educational purposes. If you only have audio files that you want to share on social media, you can transform these audio files into video files that can be shared on social media. You can embed the caption into the video and insert a progress bar which makes the video produced high quality and very user-friendly to consume. We use VEED to give a taster to our clients and we build a library of snackable videos.

• In my experience, massively buggy - does not work in Safari
• Does not upload ProRes files in Chrome
• Does not always save work even when displaying it does
• Audio sync not locked
• In my experience, Support does not understand issues, even when carefully explained
• Timeline buggy and not consistent
• Overall, in my opinion, just not a pro product, not useful for professional post production
• In my opinion, not at all worth the $38 per month minimum plan required to be able to download subtitle .srt files

It was very easy. They have a nice help video to guide you along the way that you can turn off if you chose. But It was a quick process and everything tied together very well. I am very pleased with the final product. I will definitely use them again.

Renderforest Video has great performance. In all the time I have used it, I haven't ever really had to wait for anything to be done, except for the rendering time. The reason for not giving the product a full 10 out of 10 is that the page load times in the wizard have left me frustrated at times. This, though, is most likely the result of internet service in a 3rd world country, as opposed to a slow server.

In my search for a motion graphic platform with an easy to use workflow, I tried out Canva. Whilst Canva didn't fit into the category I was searching for at all, it did give me another platform to do some static media content development on. I also tried Animaker, which was a lot of fun to use, but the process was a lot more manual than what Renderforest Video presents. Renderforest Video was the easiest to use, had the widest variety of templates and made the best impression on management.

I originally chose Veed over Descript for its easy interface. However, I am switching back to Descript because in my opinion the product is less glitchy and comes with better support and features.

• More time can be spent on interviewing clients and researching and development instead of creating quality graphics.
• The subscription payment option saves money since we know we need them constantly in the future.
• The quality of the content is superior to the ability of our on-site graphic design team at less than half the cost.

• Negative return on investment due to time invested in such a, in my opinion, buggy, poorly executed application
