The video is choppy and it takes so long to load. Not a lot of edit tools to work with. We even pay into the subscription but got the same results.

Hello Karen, sorry to hear you had difficulties using Kizoa. Please, let us know if you have any other questions. We appreciate your comment!
I purchased this slideshow program to complete an In Memoriam slideshow for a friend that passed away very young. Given that I only had a week to create the slideshow, I was working on it up until minutes before we had to leave for the funeral. I was shocked at the amount of time it took to email me the final version of the slideshow or that it had to be emailed at all. I was beyond embarrassed on how many people I had let down because the slideshow was not emailed or able to be downloaded until the service was half way over. I had no idea before spending a decent amount of money for your service that it would take so long to be created via a cloud program. Then when I tried to create DVDs for the parents of their only child now deceased, they didnt even work on their DVD players because the Kizoa recommended format was not compatible with their DVD players. Instead of being able to mourn the loss of a friend I was overwhelmed with embarrassment that I had let down the family and the entire service audience of several hundred people.

Of all the different movie makers I tried, this is by far the best. Easy to use with lots of additional options. Thank you Kizoa!

Relatively easy to use and it lets you add your own or content or use one of their pre-made shows. Yes, I would recommend Kizoa.

Hi Marvin, Thank you for recommending Kizoa and choosing our program.
Several years ago I naively purchased a Premium membership with Kizoa, believing that this
Would be an excellent platform for producing my video/slide shows. While I wasn't looking for sophistication,
I did seek a program capable of performing basic editing. What they promised in their introductory preview
Was in fact misleading:
• editing capabilities are poorly developed;
• almost every time I attempt to use the program for creating a new video or editing
an existing one, I encounter technical new glitches;
• each time I make a single edit on the music timeline, the program freezes forcing me to re login;
• saved transitions and music mysteriously disappear;
• texts appear off-centered;
• numerical ordering of my 100 plus saved videos become completely garbled making retrieval a nightmare;
• downloading is an endless process.
Last year, for four months, the company didn't answer its phones nor respond to my emails. When I was finally able to
Communicate with them, I was given the following response:
• "we're in the process of upgrading; bear with us for a few more weeks.
Months have passed without any visible improvement:
• the number of editing capabilities have continued to disappear;
• Kizoa's customer service in Paris, London and the US are no longer reachable;
• should I want to go back to a previous window, I am forced to re login;
• I can no longer retrieve many of my completed videos. Many video/slide shows
appear to have been erased or gravely altered;
• a new message appears on the homepage. "WARNING, due to an exceptional fire
At one of the data centers of our supplier, OVH ICloud, some of your photos, music
And gifs cannot be displayed in your account. We sincerely apologize for the
inconvenience and will do our very best to get your data back online as soon as
Possible"
This is not a guarantee, and the possible loss of year's of personal memories is more
than just an inconvenience.
Kizoa falls short of being a professional program and I give it the lowest marks in all areas.

I was surprised be even getting a response back from their customer service email since their number listed doesn't work at all. When you make a purchase on their site, it takes you to a PayPal site to make a transaction. However, on that link site. There are other options of payment like visa or Mastercard. I chose visa which then goes straight from my bank account. Not PayPal. Customer service said they were unable to process a refund and to make a dispute with PayPal over my purchase. But I didn't pay with PayPal. Yet, on the bank statement that shows my purchase through my visa card, the name on the statement says PayPal kizoa. So they figured they could scam me by saying it says PayPal. When I jever paid through them. I'm in the process of talking with my bank in hopes they can do a charge back. I paid 2x for premium on 2 different accounts I had made in 2013. I had loads of videos and pictures stored there that are the only pictures I have left from after our house fire. And the site promised it would be retrieved. But after paying for one... nothing showed up in the account. Paying for the second one, it showed the pictures and videos I made were listed. But could not veiw any of it. Rendering the site useless for me. And they wouldn't even offer to help troubleshoot why I couldn't see those pictures. I'm terribly saddened that I am unable to get those pictures back. And I am infuriated by the lack of customer care or service to offer any compensation or help at all. It was a complete waist of valuable time and not to mention money that is tight. I would not recommend kizoa and urge anyone to find a much more reputable company who has a customer service number that WORKS, also known for helping people with issues and will guarantee your money back if they fail on their end.
Tip for consumers:
Do not pay them unless you don't mind waiting your money.

None.

Had some problems when downloading with screen frames staying in sync with music - but graphics are great
Date of experience: May 20, 2015
I have some great news! We actually just integrated a new feature regarding synchronising music to your slideshows that has just gone live this morning! You'll now see that on the music bar that appears underneath your slideshow when you add music to it, there are indicators that show you at which point in the slideshow the song is repeating so you now where it ends and on which slide you can add you next song. Give it a try and let me know what you think of it or if you have any suggestions for improvement :)
Have never had anything but good experiences with this site! We are an elementary school with limited funds so this works great for us!

Lousy! Your instructions for burning a DVD do not work on the Mac computer! I am still waiting for a response from several emails!

Hi Dave, send me a direct email at veronica.gomez@kizoa.com so I can look into your issue. Also, here is a video tutorial on our Youtube channel which shows step-by-step how to burn a DVD with a MAC computer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbxDJ24zeFs&index=13&list=PL68A0340A03AE5F4B
I love the user friendly site with great customer service and assistance. It would be nice to download faster but the quality is great.

I spent weeks trying to make a slideshow. I also wanted to add music to go along with the slideshow. I listen to those 4 songs more than a 100 times. Trust me it was probably more. Anyway, each time I listen the music start on a different slide and would start playing over again. I would then spend hours downloading that slide show to YouTube to see if I could match the length of music and take note on what slide it was on. After numerous tries, I thought I had it just right. However, when it came time to present the slideshow to a roomful of Kindergarten students, their parents and guests, teachers and community leaders, my 19 minute slideshow turned into 30 minutes and it still was finished. The song looped so much that I heard one guest say, "If I hear that song one more time I'm going to puke". Honestly, I felt the same way. It played so long that my screensaver started up and now my audience was watching my personal pictures instead of the slideshow. I quickly unplugged the computer and my audience never saw the end of the slideshow. The Kindergarten ceremony was then much longer and the students more figgity because the program was now longer than I expected. I felt extremely embarrassed and most of all I let down my students and their guest. Boy! I miss OneTrueMedia.com. :(

Dear Yvonne, I'm very sorry for your experience! These kind of issues shouldn't occur anymore since last week we set in place a new feature that shows exactly where a song ends in a slideshow and it also shows how many times the song is looping in a slideshow. Please get in touch with me at veronica.gomez@kizoa.com so I can find a solution for you and the troubles you experienced. We're also sad that onetruemedia was shut down as it certainly one of the best online video applications. We'll strive and do our best to become one of the best video applications.
Program works great... my ONLY suggestion is I wish there was a way to put pictures that you upload in a folder and save for later.

Great video maker, however it jumbles the pictures up even though I upload them in order, so added countless hours to editing my video.

Hi Mallory,
Thank you for your review. We're in the process of enhancing our photo and video organizing options on Kizoa. For the moment, we recommend as a tip to order your photos and videos as 01, 02, 03, etc. before you upload them to Kizoa because our platform currently operates using an alphanumeric system. We hope this helps and feel free to contact us if you have any other questions by either calling us at (844)898-4402 or emailing us at support@kizoa.com. Have a great day and thank you again for your review! - Evan
