> 
> **Pros**: Everything is well thought out and documented, when we ran into problems support was super fast and helpful
> 
> **Cons**: Making it write in Hebrew took some time

### "Best of its kind  in the market" — 5.0/5

> **Bo** | *12 October 2021* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Shotstack product architecture is clean and service API is well documented and very comprehensive. We can easily consume the services and receive the expected outcome
> 
> **Cons**: There are three languages support available. I would still hope to see Python API  becoming available at some point as our product is developed  using Python.
> 
> My overall experience with Shotstack has been fantastic. The product is amazing and it exactly addresses our needs of generation movies based our input medias and instructions. The support has been super helpful as well, as we always get timely responses from the team. Lastly, the price is also very reasonable. We hope to establish long term strategic relationship with this company and grow our products together.

### "Clear to use API and (more importantly) great dev support" — 5.0/5

> **John** | *11 October 2021* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Clear examples, with logical process to build the video and no fuss, plus there was an easy to use sandbox mode to test beforehand (no complicated setups). Most importantly dev support was quick and helpful even when my initial understanding was clearly of an amateur.
> 
> **Cons**: Inability to get stills from the video (at the time - may have changed since).
It would be nice if the videos could be processed instantaneously rather than having to pre-render the video (that way we could make bespoke videos for prospective clients on the fly).
> 
> We came across Shotstack in Jan 2020 when we were looking for a simple video processing SaaS. They charged for only what was used (at the time), the API had good examples and was straight forward to setup, there was a sandbox that was easy to access and most importantly dev support was quick and helpful. Once our integration was setup we could leave it do it's thing and have not had any real problems since.

### "No-frills, but powerful video editing API" — 5.0/5

> **Patrick** | *12 October 2021* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Shotstack enabled us to roll our own online video editing tool for our customers to easily design marketing videos with a custom drag and drop interface. We’ve had great success using shotstacks APIs, and intend to use them for multiple new projects.
> 
> **Cons**: The positioning features in the API are a bit clunky. Not a huge fan of the anchor system.

> 
> I have made video editing simpler because of Shotstack , now people can use my platform to make video by simply uploading images , so i have managed to make this service possible due to shotstack
