    It's excellent at taking a script and turning it into a video, which is huge for me. The output looks professional - maybe not as polished as you'd get from a human expert but much quicker and cheaper. Supposedly it does really well at avatars/talking heads too, but I don't really need it for that. The branching and interactive videos sound really exciting, but unfortunately without making them wcag accessible, I wouldn't really be able to implement them

    I actively talk about Wipster and show off how I'm able to get so much done with my clients because of this tool all of the time! If you own or work at a digital agency, it's a must! I'm using Wipster for short and long-form media, it just makes everything so much easier for me.

    Pros

    Wipster
    • Wipster was one of the first applications to allow for frame-by-frame video feedback. This provided a unique opportunity to make feedback far more intelligible than before. Before Wipster, we needed to reference phone calls, notes, emails, and messages, as well as communicate verbally with our project managers. A lot of information can get lost this way, but Wipster places the feedback directly with the video, which makes it super easy to understand what the client desires for their video to look like.
    • Wipster allows for a client to select a location on a frame where their feedback is referencing. It's fairly archaic, but it works. Client feedback sits next to the playback window so it's somewhat easy to reference what the client wants.
    • Wipster also allows for integration with editing software like Premiere Pro, which speeds up the editing process as well.

    Cons
    Colossyan
    • lack of realistic AI (vs what Synthesia offers). NEO 2 is the answer BUT limited
    • lack of mods (like animations for the texts / images)
    • Better voice mods too, too many robotic voices especially in different language than English. Need more adjustment we can do.

    • There is sometimes a lag when navigating a timeline/leaving comments, which makes me wonder if actions are being recorded correctly.
    • The admin interface seems to be slower than it should be.
    • There's no closed captioning feature as far as I know (some of our clients are deaf/hard of hearing).

    Compared to Synthesia, things don't "just work" the way you expect them to. Don't get me wrong, it feels like a good v1 product. But there are a lot of tiny performance and usability niggles that waste my time to find workarounds for

    Wipster
    While the technical issues we have encountered with Wipster have been very low in the time we've used the service, the few instances where we have needed assistance were met promptly and effectively by Wipster's Support Team. This support even extended all the way from the platform's founder, as I received help from him, which really impressed me.

    The biggest help Colossyan has had is being able to import PowerPoint presentations that can quickly be converted into videos. That has been a huge time saver for when there are quick deadlines for videos that need to be sent out to employees. It has saved us hours of work every day, which has allowed us to focus on other projects.

    After my experience with Wipster at my old job, when I started a business I knew I needed to look into alternatives. Despite the areas it failed, Wipster still made it easier to do my job. At this point, I've switched to Frame.io and it's hard to look elsewhere. Frame.io does everything Wipster does but heaps better. It's easier to use, easier to organize, cleaner interface, and accomplishes my goals at a reasonable cost to the business.
