SmartSHOW 3D Reviews

In general, I think the SmartShow3D is great. It is excellently solved in application. See also "above" in Pros.

SmartSHOW 3D is fantastic for creating a picture show.

In version 25 there are unfortunately very few new transitions (applications).
I expected more. However, I haven't worked with version 25 yet.
I have little to no use with the templates.

Overall nice program, for the price, you get a lot off options, and support is good. Works well with Windows 11.

Ease off the program, and output, and good and many options in the output.the templates are easy to use.

Wish there were more 5 minute templates, like just put 50 photos in the program, and SmartSHOW 3D does the rest, like pro-show producer has.

One function is very useful and that is "save for another computer!" All necessary files such as graphics, photos and others will be packed into one directory so that the final result can be opened on any other computer without something missing or not being found. I would especially point out that the graphic design of all the templates was obviously done by very professional artists! I recommend SmartSHOW 3D!

It is very easy to work with this program! Why?
The quality of the templates is so good that we just need to select the template with the desired theme and then select slide by slide and drag it to the timeline. Likewise, we are not left alone when filling slides with the desired graphics, texts and animations! We also have a large selection of musical compositions available for background music. Total creativity is possible because all elements from various temples can be mixed! The length of each slide can be adjusted differently.

No such points. I liked everything. I had no any problems or errors.

I have been using SmartSHOW 3D since 2016, and it has been a great experience.
Taking pictures and recording videos of family events is my hobby. With SmartSHOW 3D, I can easily turn those memories into beautiful video slideshows. The final videos always look professional, and my friends and family often praise them, saying they look like they were made by a professional.
The most special video I made using SmartSHOW 3D was a memorial tribute for a close friend who passed away a few months ago. It turned out to be the best video I have ever created. This program has everything you need to make high-quality videos.
Another great thing about SmartSHOW 3D is their excellent customer support. They not only guide you step by step but also send helpful video tutorials to fix any issues.
I 100% recommend SmartSHOW 3D! It is the best software for creating professional-looking videos with ease.

Easy to Use: The software is very user-friendly, even for beginners.
Great Features: It offers a wide selection of titles, effects, transitions, and designer templates, making video creation simple.
Professional Results: The final videos look high-quality and well-made, often praised by my family and friends.
Versatile: It works perfectly for creating slideshows, family event videos, and memorial tributes.
Excellent Customer Support: The support team provides step-by-step guidance and even sends video tutorials to help fix any issues.

Limited Advanced Editing: While great for slideshows and basic video editing, it may not have the advanced tools that professional editors use.
Occasional Bugs: Sometimes, there are small glitches, but customer support is always helpful in fixing them.

Software really is done well in its characteristics and in its handhold in moving in the application including correcting photos and videos.

That every time it updates it comes out with new things that are integrated on the software which allows you to do things without the need for third-party applications.

I wouldn't know since I've been buying it for 10 years and haven't noticed any deterioration in the upgrade.

Very good sideshow software at very reasonable price. Can now change order of pictures in slide after latest upgrade

Now much better. Can change the order of slides. Been user for 3 years and now upgraded and now even better

Nothing cannot fault the program. Excellent slideshow software

Love the program.

I purchased the software for our 50TH wedding anniversary in 2015/2016 and started using the software with minimal effort. The project turned out pretty good and my wife loves it but as I see my first project as needing improvement, but she is loves it.

The 1st project is where I learned the hard lesson about saving and saving to another computer. I have that part down pat now.

I am 78 now and really like the software and continue to use it as it has a lot of strong features and fairly easy to use.

I have no issues with the software except that the updates had to be linked to support however that has been fixed.

My experience have been good. The program is ok for beginners. After using it foe a few years I am wondering why they do not have a advance copy for experience user. But for use of using it is good.

It is a easy program to use for beginners. When ever I have needed help it was good. You need to contact them by email and usually they get back to you in 48hrs. There is a learning curve but it is moderate.

Lack of improvement to the program. They do not seem to take any suggestion to improve to put more advance improvement. It is hard to do outstanding shows because there is to hard to customize the show to you liking. Foe example combining slides together.

I've changed from another slideshow program that went to a subscription. I am very happy I did!

The GUI is easy to learn. It's very intuitive and makes creating slideshows a breeze.

No way to change all existing slide's background with one setting.

Easy to use.

Great features.

Lots of great templates that can be used as is or modified.

Highly recommended.

This is a great, easy to use product that allows you to present your photos in an interesting and dynamic way with transitions, animations and music.

You can put a slideshow together in 5 minutes if you want to by accepting all the defaults, however, if you want to put more time and effort into it then you have a lot of flexibility to really personalise your slideshow.

It would be nice to see more templates based on portrait photos rather than landscape ones.

More precise timing options would be nice.

1) Have used SmartSHOW since Feb 2014.
2 ) Have been producing videos since 2005.
3) Videos produced are mainly scenic and travel. Also, a great way to highlight my passion for creativity, detail and organization in video format; i.e., process control, spreadsheet design for simplifying any work effort or methodology.
4) I will use this product several times throughout the year and then sometimes not so often which has no reflection on the product

1) Purchase Only (with free updates within one year of purchase).
2) New Templates and Features are offered frequently.
3) Customer Service is ALWAYS Great!
4) Software prices are reasonable.
5) I love Windows 7 and am delighted that AMS Software is still producing products for W7.

I really have not experienced any problems to date. If I do, it is because I am not understanding how to use a certain function. I will then explore how to use it.

Great program to use overall! I have used quite a few other slide show programs but always come back to SmartSHOW 3D. I recently used it for my mother-in-laws memorial show and it came together very good.

The program is a breeze to use especially when you are working with very larges amounts of pictures. The program is packed with many more features that I just have never used.

Nothing in particular stands out except once in a while I will get error messages when saving files. I need to educate myself further as to where data is stored and sometimes info is missing when I pull up previously saved projects.

Just love making videos for my church and friends. And posting them on our church page and our dining out page.

I take a lot of pictures for our church and our ladies' group and make wonderful videos. My favorite is doing the church pot luck so many people and different poses and faces especially when they have a mouth full of food (lol)

Very satisfied with the product.

It is intuitive and quite easy to use even though I haven't found out all the possibilities the software provides. After installing the software quit all the time when using a template to create a slideshow but the customer service responded quick to my question and provided a solution for the issue.

I used the trial version to create a slideshow with one of the templates and was amazed how quickly I had a good looking slideshow finished. Immediately I bought the product to create slideshows from my travel photos.

Using the software I did not find any cons so far. The additional templates on the website I find to expensive when you want to use different styles.

Pretty much the industry standard for this type of application. You will need to adjust photos from time to time, but does very well with reading the shot. Make sure you save often and back up daily. Perfect for graduations, funerals, celebrations that require the "slide show".

Fairly simple to use, great library of montage styles and transitions. New style packs available. Timeline plays and stops with a tap of the spacebar. Drag-n-drop works great. Solid tech support. Can stretch photos to fit the screen quite easily. Comes with royalty free music.

Only certain style packs allow video so it is limited. When purchasing style packs, you cannot add more than one to the cart per purchase. Wish each montage effect had a way show how many photos it accommodates without having to call it up. In America, tech support takes a day to respond in a chat.

I used this software for many years to create and capture beautiful memories. Easy to use and a greater variety of ideas and templates to choose from.

Love the templates and backgrounds. East to use.
Support if you have issues is prompt and always resolve issues for me.

Not much that I do not like. But if I had to choose one would be more template options.

This program enables me to bring pictures and videos to life and I can keep them forever. And can always watch them over and over again.

I love that this program is easy to use for amateurs like me. I love being as creative as I want and enjoy making slideshows for my grandkids. And they love watching them.

There is nothing I don't like about this program. I highly recommend this program.

I can recommend this program to anyone who wants to start their adventure with creating slideshows. It's simple and fun to use, and yet it allows you to get remarkable effects. Worth every dollar I've spent on it.

SmartSHOW 3D is straightforward to use and offers an impressive collection of montage styles and transitions, with additional style packs regularly released. In a few clicks, even an inexperienced user can achieve top-notch, professionally produced videos. In addition, there is free music available that we can use in our projects. I've used earlier versions of the app, but the latest release takes show creation to a whole other level!

I've experienced occasional bugs, but nothing that couldn't be solved on my own. Also, I wouldn't mind if the program would get some design update because the current one, even though it's simple to use, looks a bit outdated compared to the modern apps. Nevertheless, functionality in the end is more important than GUI.

It's worth trying out the free trial version. I have not found a comparable program with which you can create such wonderful looking picture shows. It's intuitive to use and great for beginners and advanced users. That's why I love it so much!

As a former web designer, I love creating great looking designs and layouts. The highlight of the websites I created were always the picture galleries. This led to my hobby of creating animated picture shows in 3D with music using the software Smartshow 3D, current version 25.0.

Smart Show 3D offers great possibilities:
- Intuitive use of the program, so that even a newcomer can quickly find his way around.
- Many templates for picture shows in 5 minutes (simply insert pictures, the program does the rest), so that a novice can quickly create a professional-looking show.
- Many templates that can be purchased on the software manufacturer's website.
- But also possibility to start with a “blank” show and create all slides by hand.
- Possibility to define the duration of the slides, the choice of transitions between slides and the duration of the transitions themselves.
- Photos can be enhanced in the photo editor.
- They can also be cropped.
- If desired, inserted films can also be used without sound or cropped in the program.
- You can use your own music or use the music library offered in the program. The volume of the music can be changed and it can also be cropped.
- The shows can be easily exported in many different formats, e.g. for television or mobile devices.
- VERY IMPORTANT: The projects can be saved “for other computer”. This saves all the images, audio files, films, etc. used so that I can edit the project later, even if the original images are no longer in their original location, for example.

The templates are getting more and more expensive. Unfortunately, the program crashes frequently, so my motto is: save, save, save ...

The application performs exceptionally well, and it has all the bells and whistles one could possibly want.

I like how seamlessly every template integrates and interacts with the application. Many templates are available for every taste and budget, and they are good value for money.
There isn't much I don't like on this app.
I've owned three previous versions of this application and have always been happy.

I'm not a fan of the automatic insertion of transitions.
I would also like an interchangeable interface, from light to dark.
The application design looks a bit dated. I would like to see a more modern look.
