Stornaway.io enables users to dream up, create and share interactive video stories, without coding.

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.

Usability
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.

Performance
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.

Alternatives Considered
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.

Return on Investment
  • 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.
