1. 01 Animated explainers without design skills

   Powtoon

   One of the easiest ways for non-designers to make animated explainers and training videos, but month-to-month prices are steep, Lite caps premium exports at five a month, and character customisation sits in higher tiers.

   What it costs

   A training team producing 8 videos a month needs Professional; yearly billing costs $480 at the current promotional rate, against about $1,188 at the reported monthly rate.

   Skip it if

   You need custom character animation on a tight budget or plan to export many videos on Lite
