I would recommend Kizoa to anyone who has a stack of photos and short videos they love and who wants to represent them to an audience in a fun way that can be easily shared ( with friends and family.)
I spent days putting together a slideshow for my boyfriend for valentines day believing that it was, as the website advertised, FREE. I am absolutely heartbroken to discover that I now need to pay money in order to download this video. I could have spent this time using another program that was actually free. I feel that this is false advertising.
Since experiencing this problem I have read reviews written by others who have similar problems and am very surprised to see that Kizoa has not changed their website to reflect it is not in fact free.
I've used Kizoa several time to make photo collages. Slideshows, special occasions cards of my granddaughters to share with my family and friends. Fairly easy to use. Great selection of templates for your use or create your own. Love that you can download high quality copies of your creations to your home computer, as well as, post them to Facebook, Twitter, etc
Kizoa is VERY user friendly. I recently created a slide show utilizing many exciting slide transitions for my mother-in-law's funeral. The slide show was a wonderful addition to the sad occasion. I especially appreciate the quick response I've gotten from the customer service folks when I've had questions or concerns. I HIGHLY recommend Kizoa for projects that involve both pictures/videos and music.
This week I am having issues downloading my video. I have emailed, called customer service, and Facebook messaged... and no one will help me. I am at the professional level and per the contract, says priority customer service and so far for three days, I can't get anyone to respond. Poor Poor job to a loyal customer.
Hello Leslie,
Sorry for this 1rst (temporary) problem since you use Kizoa. You have normally recovered your movie correctly. Can you confirm that? Thank you
Best,
François
I have used Kizoa for a few years now and since the upgrades, after purchasing my premium package I have noticed issues with accessing my accounts. I have tried contacting the company and resetting passwords however now response by the Kizoa team has been successful in reaching out to me.
I found Kizoa by doing a Google search for the best apps for creating a photo presentation. Was I glad I did! I had never done one before and had no clue how to put it together. Kizoa was totally intuitive, self explanatory, and amazingly easy to use. I did a life celebration presentation for my sister and the results were both up-beat, beautiful, and moving. My thanks to Kizoa!
Terrible company. They do not advertise that if your file is too big you have to pay for a membership. I spend over 5hrs working on a project for my grandfathers memorial just to find out I had to pay to download it or burn to a DVD. After emailing I got a generic (and probably automatic) response telling me what I had already knew, emailed a second time and never got a response back. Worst customer service and deceiving advertisement.
Hello Kristin,
We are deeply sorry for you loss. We try to make our different membership levels as transparent and clear as possible. You can use the majority of Kizoa for free such as making movies of unlimited length to share online via email, Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, or embed onto a website/blog. You also do have the option to download your movie for free if it lasts less than one minute. We do offer more advanced options such as unlimited movie duration download, amongst other features, with our Premium memberships. I have exceptionally requested for your movie to be converted into a downloadable video file in full HD resolution that you will receive by email. I hope this helps and please feel free to contact us at (844)898-4402
Thank you for your amazing customer service. I rec'd a reply back to my inquiry on my membership issues. All of my questions were answered. I was able to burn my slideshow to a dvd with no problems. I've been a long time member of Kizoa. I love the many effects and transitions you can add. I was able to edit and revise my slideshow easily. I am so happy with your quick reply and service I will definitely be letting my friends at work how what an awesome site Kizoa is. Happy Dance!
Hi Ethel, don't worry, we never cancel accounts even if a membership has expired. What probably happened is you may have accidentally created a second account. I can help you find your original account with your photos and slideshows so you can regain access to it. Just send me an email at veronica.gomez@kizoa.com and I'll get everything worked out for you ;)
Music on movie slides are behind from when you actually play them. If you put a collage into the movie it freezes. This sight freezes a lot, and it makes me really angry to have to reload it a bunch of times. I have used the site of many different computers and web browsers and it still is wonky.
Hi Alyssa, we are unfortunately experiencing some slowness on the site at the moment, but our engineers are already hard at work to get everything back to normal!
The site offers a good platform for personal use. However, if you have a YouTube channel some of the music that us supposed to be okay to use causes an almost strike making me not want to produce with just the site alone. Want more traffic partner with Epidemic Sound. Okay for college use and the visuals are good.
I read the website description and gave the trail version a try. It worked pretty well and I went ahead and bought the full version. As I was getting into production I began to find flaws.
* You cannot control the speed of text scrolls
* You cannot insert video
* You cannot set slide times for indivdual slides
I contacted KIZOA and requested a refund. As a wedding photography I need video input. They said "No refund". If your just loading up your family photos it's fine... if your trying to do semi-pro or professional productions, stay away!
I am a Premium member, I would like very much to upgrade to a PRO membership with the offered discount of 65%. Unfortunately I have missed the offer, that was till September 27th.
Kizoa offer me now only 30% of the remaining part of my membership.
Update
The situation is already well and satisfactorily resolved
Nothing but my gratitude for the collaboration. Thank you.
Hi Solange, I have replied to your message on our Facebook page to let you know that the discount is available until October 29th so you can still use the promo code PRO30 to get the discount if you still have the Premium DVD membership.
We were running low on time to put together a collage of all of our pictures for the "growing up" video of both my wife and I. Thankfully Kizoa was such an easy thing to use! I was able to create my video for free and get used to the interface before even thinking of purchasing the premium experience. Once everything was as I wanted it, I upgraded my account and got a full HD video that turned out fantastic on the projector we set up for this collage.
I was quite happy with the experience. Adding music, transitions between slides, automated animations and layouts, and many other great features were incredibly helpful for me. I probably finished the collage 10x faster than if I were to have tried on my own with another piece of software. The best part is that the images and music is all stored online, so I was able to work on it between multiple computers if I needed to!
I have used Kizoa for years and have created many beautiful videos. I recently completed creating a new slide and was asked to send in and a link would be sent to burn video to CD. The link they provide has "Kizoa" prominently featured on every single slide. It takes away from the video, is very distracting and in some cases overlaps photos. I was very disappointed with the new change and will no longer use the program that I paid for to create videos/slideshows.
Hello Angela, sorry to hear you had difficulties using Kizoa. Please, let us know if you have any other questions. We appreciate your comment!
I want to thank the customer service for all their help in getting me back on Kizoa. You are so patient and so kind. I wish all customer services would be like your company, Kizoa. I am just thrilled to be back on this site and I love it. It's so much fun and I am now able to burn my DVD's. Thank you again for all your help.
Im a student and I used kizoa for my video project and it said I had to become a premium member to access my video they scammed me and now I have to remake my video that took hours to make and that is due in 20 minutes please never use this site I promise you will get scammed!
I love Kizoa. It has allowed me to make epic birthday, anniversary and all sorts of other videos.
The premium is worth it so that I can add my own music - but even before I went premium your music selection is very good and can be used in all sorts of ways.
I have used Kizoa now for 2 weeks.
It is a very simple, straight forward site and application to use.
I had problems signing up with the promotion code applicable for the 2 year membership. I contacted the kizoa support and received feedback with another promotion code within less then 24 hours.
I had no problem signing up or paying. Mind you though I used paypal.
I love the fact I can store all my photos.
I had some issues with uploading music. However, this was more a problem on my side, which I was able to correct.
I had contacted kizoa support numerous times with questions. They always got back to me within 24 hours, which is really great!
Love the Application. I would recommend it to anyone starting out with photography. It certainly is worth every penny.
I have gotten many many compliments regarding the slideshows I have created so far.
We love Kizoa.
Bettina
For a first time movie maker I've found it rather easy. As I've gained more experience I'm discovering tools fir the more advanced movie maker as well. If you are using for business I highly recommend buying the Pro package. I'm really enjoying Kizoa.

Hi Rebecca, I'm sorry to hear about the confusion of our free features vs. our Premium features. With a free account on Kizoa you can use your own photos, videos, and music to make movies, collages, and edit photos. You can make as many as you want and then share your creations online for free by email, Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, blog, etc. You can also download your movie for free so long as it is under 1 minute in length. You can review our features with pricing directly on our website as well as within your Kizoa account by clicking on the large orange "Lifetime Premium" button in the top left corner of your Kizoa account. We try and make as much as Kizoa free as we can, which is currently the case. However, we do still have a few special features reserved for our Premium members.
