WeVideo Reviews

WeVideo is an excellent tool for video editing, both for those who are experienced in editing and those who are newer. The tool has several different modes, with the "Storyboard" mode showing a simpler window for those who are new, whereas the "Timeline" mode displays the editing screen in a similar way to many other editing tools. The software can easily click videos together and overlay text, stock images/videos, music, and more with an easy-to-use library and video track system. Working with others on the tool is also easy by creating a "Shared Project". There is even a classroom option for teachers to work with their students!

There are small tweaks that WeVideo could make to improve, such as their "Group" manager tool, but I've found every time I had an issue and sent in feedback, they changed it very quickly!

I just love all the features WeVideo has to offer. You can merge videos into one, add transitions, text and different filters. One of the best parts is that you can do all this without any restriction from you smartphone and computer. Another amazing feature WeVideo has is that it includes an Education form of the platform, which allows me to create rooms where students can add their videos and watch videos I upload and edit throughout the platform.

Nothing, WeVideo is amazing and I wouldn't change a thing about it. I will definitely continue using this platform to create and edit videos.

WeVideo has so many features that make it the optimal introduction to video editing for students or for adults who have yet to try their hands at editing. It is completely online, meaning you don’t have to download any large software files, and you can access your work online from any computer you can log in on. Users can edit in a normal timeline mode for those who have some experience, or you can use the storyboard mode which makes it easier to follow and edit for newer users. It has so much stock footage anyone can use, and even has themes that you can apply to the entire video that automatically add music, transitions, and title cards that fit a theme of your choice! Once you are more experienced, the depth of options this software can give you is impressive - from greenscreen and video effects to multiple track layering!

It’s hard to think of any issues with WeVideo! There are a lot of options, and it can get overwhelming if you search through all of the options before getting a base understanding of editing, but that can also be a benefit for those who want to explore or create high quality videos!

WeVideo is easy to deploy and the interface is pretty intuitive...especially if you've ever done video editing in a normal non-linear editing interface. It easily integrates multiple tracks of video, audio, overlays, transitions and comes with royalty-free background music pre-bundled. Great for quick productions where you don't have high-tech demands. Recommend you get the free version first to see if it meets your needs. You can upgrade incrementally as needed.

Because I've used full-featured non-linear editing suites in the past, there were times where I felt a bit "constrained" in the WeVideo interface. I figured out how to do MOST of what I would do normally, but this isn't an expensive, full-featured tool...it is for consumers to be able to create quick videos with transitions and multiple tracks without breaking the bank. I can live with some constraints for that.

The steps to creating a video on Wevideo are straightforward and easy to use. I have a classroom account and was able to show my 6th graders how to create videos. They took to it like fish to water and are creating great products.

It's difficult to have a group of kids working on the same video, but unable to be doing work at the same time. Only one student can be on the project doing editing at a time. It would also be great to be able to upload Google slides rather than having to upload a Screencastify version of the slides and edit from there.

I have been using WeVideo for 8 years. I have found nothing comparable for the price. Simple enough for elementary students to use, yet robust enough for the prosumer in your organization. Over the years WeVideo has worked consistently to improve the program by continually adding new features as requested by users. I have and will continue to recommend WeVideo to all.

WeVideo has worked diligently over the years to improve the program. Generally, new features are added when requested by users within months. New features are generally fairly stable, even in beta, and support is quick and consistent. I really don't have anything I disliked about the program.

This web-based editor makes teaching video production a breeze whether I'm in the classroom or teaching remotely. It provides access-anywhere collaboration and storage a reality for schools on a tight budget. An intuitive interface with a feel similar to the pricier pro NLEs provides a lot of bang for the buck, including color correction, chroma-key, and a stock library like I've never seen. The stock media is awesome! It integrates beautifully with Google Drive so media storage is not a problem and I can assign projects to individuals or groups with ease. I had my doubts, but this does the trick for an entry-level video class.

One thing I cannot do in WeVideo is unlink the audio from the video in a clip. This makes split edits (L- or J- cuts) a little more difficult by making you use a second video track. It's not the worst thing, but when I'm teaching how to smooth out a cut like the pros, who use FCP or Premiere, I have to add a caveat about the limitations of this NLE.

It is a very user friendly tool. Has enough features to make a proper video with ease. Contains an enormous media library to choose from. The fact that it doesn't require to be downloaded makes it even better.

There are a few drawbacks to be noticed. The text overlays don't have effects to add. The video playback is a bit laggy. And the main problem for me was the transitions. They should add more transitions in it.

-It is very easy to use
-It is packed with features that make it extremely powerful
-It has a MASSIVE library of stock media that can be used in video creation
-It connects with cloud-based services like Google Drive for easy storage and upload
-They listen to the feedback of their users when making upgrades and adding features
-They have a great community of educators who share ideas and lessons

-No ability to crop image or video clips

What I really like about WeVideo is that it is so easy to use. once my footage is uploaded onto the platform I can edit it add special effects music etc with ease. there are also plenty of tutorials and a friendly create a community to help me if I get stuck.

At the moment I am very pleased with this product and cannot find any fault with it.

We use this program last year to create weekly videos for a class with the students. The students are taught how to utilize this application for their program. The students are comfortable and felt the program is simple to use.

There are many features in this software and for someone that is not comfortable with technology, it might be a bit overwhelming with the transferring of photos and videos from phone to computer.

I discovered this service when putting together a virtual learning plan for my school and couldn't be happier. There are very few video editing services for students that work on any device and on any platform. WeVideo does and it's super easy to use. They have a great resource library where you can search by grade division (MS, HS, etc.) and by subject area to browse already made videos for inspiration. They also have templates that students can use for structure for things like book talks or science labs.

It is free so I really can't complain about anything. After having used imovie for years I was able to figure out how to do everything I used to love to do on imovie without much work.

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.

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.
