I am a Media Specialist for a 5-8 school. With my 5th graders I do a research project on American landmarks. I use Kizoa as the final draft where they present their research. The students love it and the projects turn out beautifully. I love the ease with which it can be used. I want to thank you for the ability to use this program for free. It is awesome!
One of my hobby is photography. Although I'm still very far to be called a pro, I dream that someday I will become one, a professional photographer. Still photos are great... but doing a photo slideshows give more life to the pictures, and if the pictures were properly arranged it gives more stories I have tried many slideshows available on the net, but I'm fascinated more with Kizoa. It's versatility and user friendly plus the added features, make a Kizoa a great slideshow maker. Of course, Kizoa team still needs to continually upgrade Kizoa slideshow maker, to address the needs of its loyal customers. I am still a beginner of this KIoa slideshow maker, so I still need to familiarize my self of this great apps.
I also got your website on google and was very happy to see that is very easy to use. Lots of features and other cool things, one very helpful site. And as others after hours of making a video for the wedding of my best friend I saw that I need to pay at least 30 $ for downloading it for a present. Very disappointing...
I stumbled upon this online program and I totally love it! The best I have used so far! Good work guys.
Hi Joyce! Thanks for taking the time to write a review! Please don't hesitate to contact us at customer support should you ever have any questions or need any assistance :)
Surprisingly fun, easy, and very customizable way to make slideshows. Just what I was looking for.
Was led to this site from google claiming it to be somehow free but found their rates were $30 for a lifetime download access. There should at least be a one-time presentation purchase as an option.
Still, I went on and completed the presentation because I enjoyed its flow.
The presentation is annoyingly buggy though, with some slides randomly taking more than the specified time. I hope for a free one-time dl of my Jacobs presentation please.
I used Kizoa for the first time one year ago
& after playing around with it I created an amazing slideshow for my husbands 50th
Now 1 year later I am wanting to create one for my daughters 21st but unfortunately I encountered all sorts of problems. (I left it to the last min as I thought I would be fine re previous experience).
I am Australia so I couldn't just ring so I emailed Kizoa (quite a number of times) &
Was extremely impressed with their helpful, detailed & PROMPT replies. I didn't have to wait days for a response.
Thankyou so very much to the amazing Kizoa support team for turning my urgent frustrating experience into a fine one again & slideshow finished on time thanks to you guys.
Completely love Kizoa & their fantastic support & support team, keep up your excellent service

Thank you for spending the time to share your experience with Kizoa. We have been happy to help and please always feel free to contact us again in the future!
Had some questions regarding my membership & payment which was quickly and efficiently cleared up in a very professional and courteous manner by the rep at Kizoa who returned my call; so glad I discovered this site and can't wait to jump in!
After hours and I do mean hours of editing this video for my nieces birthday tomorrow, I try to download to my computer so that I can burn it, and it pops up with a 30.00 charge, this site is very misleading as it tells you its free, every other editing sites lets you know ahead of time if you are going to be charged! So Disappointing
Hello Victoria. A lot of Kizoa is free: you can create collages and movie, save them to your Kizoa account, and share them online as a free user and you can even download movies of up to 1 minute in length. A Premium membership is needed to download longer movies. I have, however, requested your movie for download so you will be receiving the link via email. Could you please let us know where you were told that Kizoa was free, as this does not appear anywhere on our site? We do also provide a detailed summary of our membership features on our homepage and under the orange Lifetime Premium button in your account.
I was not expecting anyone to respond to my message inquiry so quickly, nevermind with a remedy! I am very impressed that Zach was able to update my new email address and help me log back into Kizoa. I wish the same could be said about other websites, who take up to a week to respond, and are not personable and often pass you onto someone else.
Claims to be free, then charges $30 to download your video after you spend hours and hours making it. I don't even need to download it! I just wanted to embed it on a friend's wall! It claims to allow posting to Facebook, but it only allows you to post the link to your own wall. How useless. The funny thing is, I'm totally willing to pay for this service, it was relatively easy to make. $5 per slideshow? Sure! $30 for one slideshow? No way. It lets you post to youtube, but then if you try to embed that, it won't show your title or description, it just turns it into an ad for itself and messes with everything not matter how many times you try to edit it. Super disappointing, going to make sure to tell everyone I know not to use it. Very deceptive, and makes me distrust this business. Sorry to post this guys, but that's what happens when you get greedy. Change your business model, I promise people are willing to pay some money, but when you're charging $30 to people who only need 1 slideshow, you're asking for it.: (
UPDATE: Thank you for sending me a free copy of my video, I do appreciate it. I also want to clarify something- there was no confusion about the $30 cost. I know that is for a "lifetime" membership, but that is not what I need. I just needed to do one slideshow, and that makes it $30 for my one slideshow. If you make slideshows a lot then that makes sense, but that's not the case in my situation, and I assume lots of other peoples situations. I was just saying that I think you guys should consider a cheaper option for one-time use. My guess is a lot of people would pay $5 for a slideshow, and very few will pay $30+ for a slideshow. But thank you for responding and sending my video, that was nice of you guys.
Hi Jody. Unfortunately, Facebook does not permit the posting directly to a friend's wall, and this is why this feature is not available. You can, however, post to your Timeline and then share the post to your friend's wall or you can copy and paste the online link of your movie to your friend's wall.
Concerning our $29.99 offer, it appears that there may be some confusion. Our Lifetime Premium Video membership would allow you to download as many movies as you would like, given that they are under 10 minutes in length. You can see all the details of this, and of our other memberships, on our homepage or by clicking the orange "Lifetime Premium" button in your account. I have, however, exceptionally requested the download of your movie, so you will be receiving a link to download your movie via email once the video file is available. I hope that this helps!
I called with a question on music and orienting pictures. The rep was friendly helpful and very quick in responding. Great website for video making. One of the most user friendly sites I have ever been on! 2 thumbs UP!
Kizao has been sufficient for what I needed, however, the ease of making web clips from larger video files has been more difficult than i would have liked and I lost important footage because clips longer than 10 minutes were not able to be stored without splitting them up.
I just spent the entire night creating a slideshow for my daughter first birthday. I was so excited to put all my daughter first year of memories together to share with my family. At one point kizoa stopped working on me in the middle of putting it all together. I had to restart after about an hour of kizoa being down due to none of my work was saved because I was in the middle of everything when it all stop responding. With that being said I went on to restart my slideshow for hours to only be mislead when I tried to download and it stated I had to upgrade. Hours of work to be mislead by false advertisement in my opinion.
Hello Birdina, I'm sorry to hear about the troubles you had and about the confusion regarding our free vs. premium features. I have requested an exceptional 1-time download of your movie for you, so please look for the link in your email! For your future projects, please do be sure to save your work as you go - you can always come back and work on it later by going to "My Movies" and clicking "Edit", and make sure that your Adobe Flash Player is up-to-date to ensure Kizoa runs smoothly! If you have any questions or need any help, please always feel free to contact us at customer support :)
I was surprised when i was asked to pay when i wanted to download. I was under the impression it was free. I spend almost a week editing my slides and when i click download, the site asked me to pay in order to download. Such a disappointment and a waste of my time.
Overall its a very good site, but because of this i cant give it a 5 star. Please change the description to stop misleading people.
Hello Khai, Thank you for your comments, I'm glad to hear that you like Kizoa and sorry to hear about the confusion. We are actually working to change the description to make this more clear. Please contact us directly at customer support so that we can try to help you with your movie!
I stumbled across Kizoa while searching for a system to create a slide show for my daughters graduation party. I'm not new to creating a slide show. I did one a year ago for my son's high school graduation party and it was a big hit. I wanted to try a new system because the previous one was not user friendly. What I liked about Kizoa is the many features and most of all the quick response time from customer service. Your rep Alesa has been a major help to the point of even walking me through on things that are just way over my head to understand. I'm stilling figuring out the features with Kizoa however, I feel comfortable knowing that I can count on your customer service to assist.
I spent the last few hours uploading photos to make a video to put on a dvd for my anniversary, only to realize I can not in fact download the movie. I feel mislead just as many others have posted here. The reason that I was under the impression that the services were free is that a google search turned up your site saying "Kizoa - Free Video Editor and Movie Maker" I do not believe the word free should exist because it is not free. Who would make a less than one minute video to download?
Hi Dan, we apologize for the confusion about the features available to our Free Basic members and I will share your concerns regarding the Google results with the rest of our team. Nearly all of Kizoa is free, as our Basic users can create movies, collages, and retouch photos and save them to Kizoa account. You will be also able to share your creations via email, Facebook, Twitter, or embed them into your own website. As mentioned, you can also download movies of up to 1 minute in length. Downloading longer movies does require a Premium membership, however, I am requesting a download of your movie for you this time. Please look for the link in your email! :)
Very patient and helpful
I do have one more challenge will call next week

Everyone loves them

Tyty
When making my movie, none is able to view it. The pictures will not show up either.
Hello Anna, I have just checked your account and everything appears to be working fine. I did also request a mobile version for your movie, as I did notice a problem with an earlier mobile attempt. Please feel free to contact us at [email protected] with any additional details so that we can help you and your contacts view your creations!
Kizoa enticed my creative side by offering a myriad of effects, transitions, templates, graphics, colors, and textures. I will be using Kizoa to create learning tools for my Middle School Art Room, as well as presentations for family and friends. The program is easy to use and I felt successful after a short amount of practice.
I can put together a video using student artwork easily the night before I need it and present the next day. I quickly realized that this powerful tool will give me an edge in capturing my student's imaginations. To produce a video that
Moves, sounds great, and creates effects that colorfully and creatively deliver
My concepts is fun, effective and more than a little magic.
Have never made a video before. Made a smaller event slideshow to see how it all worked and have now made a (i think) great slude show with embedded videos to promote our tennis club.
