Create Quick Text Based Videos for Social Media
Reviewed on 18/7/2019
Pros
I ran across Lumen5 when looking for a user-friendly site for branding and creating my own short videos for promoting our company. The videos were easy to build and offered a lot of stock video and photos. I can create a video in about 30 minutes (max) and format and reformat it for different platforms with ease.
Cons
I wish I could integrate my own audio or even voice overs. Its limited in that you can only use text and stock audio. It is also very expensive compared to what you can do with it. I may switch to another product next year.

The Fastest Video App to Convert Blog Posts to Videos

I was happy with the quality of videos and the service the Lumen5 team provided.
Pros
I liked how easy it is to convert a blog post into a video. With just a click, a like of text is added to editor, which means it's a lot quicker to get videos done.
Cons
Lumen5 had offered a 12-month free account, during which I created over 1500 videos. I stopped using it because I did not want to pay the monthly subscription after the 12 months were up. I switched to another app that offered a lifetime deal.

Not a great value for your money

customer service and response was quick and timely but it's not worth the money in my opinion
Pros
The software was pretty easy to use, changing between formats for Facebook to IGTV was simple. If you enter a link/blog piece it would extract the text and create a template video for you to start working with which is good.
Cons
There are a lot of glitches with the software and it does not allow for customizations. For example, I tried exporting a video numerous times throughout a week and the audio and video was continuously out of sync even after I had reached out to customer support.
It also doesn't allow for customizations like increasing the volume of the music. If you want to upload your own video and have music overlay in the background that is not possible which interrupts the flow of the video and taking away from the professionalism.
You also can't adjust the amount of text on the screen, or adjust the size of the text, or customize the placement. There are set placements for text (bottom of the screen, top of the screen) And you can't deviate from that. There is a sliding scale for text size so if you want it to be any bigger or smaller than the presets that option is not available.
The options for background music are mediocre, some of them are really strange and it takes a lot of work searching through to find a decent soundtrack.

I was recommended it by a friend about a year and a half ago and use it as a focal point for the social media aspect of the business.
Pros
I like the ability to very quickly put together montage's that help explain my business in an illustrative format.
Cons
Sometimes it's hard to find the gifs/ images that you want to fit your mindset but that's to be expected.

Best Video creation tool based on AI features

Overall Lumen5 is an awesome tool for growth hackers and marketer like me who spend their time in creating video ads. The super impressed by the functionality of this tool. With the help of this tool I save most of my time, I just have to make minimal adjustments whenever I create video for our campaign.
Pros
The best part about this tool is that it allows you to create your blog post into a video, You don't have to write the blog post again it just simple copy pasting the URL and you are good to go. There are thousands of images and video clips available which you can use while editing, adding any new slide or section to the video. The tool is based on AI which makes it easy to use. The interface is very user friendly which makes the customization part easy even for a non-technical persons.
Cons
The least liking factor about this tool is that when you convert the blog post into a video you cannot change the content in the blog, it only fetch the result in the URL or the content you have published. Recently I created a video by converting my blog post but sometimes as blogger we made some typing or grammar mistakes I was unable to change the script in the blog which I think needs improvement. Another thing which I dislike is sometimes it takes a lot of time in rendering the video.
