BEWARE - VERY Difficult to unsubscribe from Envato. I started the "Free Trial" - decided it was not for me at the time. They make it VERY DIFFICULT to unsubscribe. You cannot unsubscribe real time yourself. You have to put in a request. Then you get a warning that it may take them 5 days to respond which would be past your free period. You also cannot just delete your credit card info. This is HORRIBLE customer service from Envato if you ask me.
I’m not seeing the issue. To cancel your subscription, one would visit “My Account / subscription details” the cancelation link is there. I just walked through the process and received 70% off my next month, so thanks!
Dang. Been using Motion Array for a long time and now you have me thinking. By the way. In my eyes, there is no more credible person on the internet than you. Thank you for all you do.
Premier Gal... you are really a good teacher, I so much appreciate all your efforts just to teach others what you know for free...Love is the greatest ❣️❣️❣️
First-time I'm coming across your channel. Must say you are so precise on info delivery as well as collected. Visuals and audio on check, and beauty + brains. You saving my brain from the decision hustle. Thanks gal. Love also how you are interacting with your community in the section. It's a SUB!
Hi, Thanks a lot for comparing them! Some of my friends are confused between these two options, and I think your video will help them a lot. I really appreciate you comparing the top features of each option and sharing your honest thoughts about both options. I am sure it will be a great watch for many people. I loved it, and I will definitely share it within my network. Hope to see more of your exciting videos in the future.
Thanks John! Definitely wanted to present the facts as objectively as possible. I know it's nearly impossible to do that because we all have a subjective lens, but I hope you got what you needed from it :)
Just got the free version of Motion Array but have the Envato Elements subscription. The main thing I was looking for were some additional transitions. Low and behold...I did a simple search on Envato and bam...there they are! So doing a simple search on Envato may also uncover some additional tools and resources that I just didn't think of for some reason...thanks for this Premiere Gal!
I used storyblocks for a year and thought it was very impressive but expensive. So I’ve used Envato for the last year and it’s v good too with more options than Storyblocks like presets for photos. I saw considering checking out Motion Array but I’ll stick with Envato after watching this video.
Thanks for a well thought out review and for actually giving your real opinion. So much value in this and very much appreciated. I came to the same final result as you but my decision process wasn’t as detailed as yours - well done :)
One extra benefit to Envato is there isn't a softlock to how fast you might download things. With Motion Array they will eventually start to Captcha soft lock you if you are downloading too much or too fast.
I actually switched from Motion Array to Envato Elements. The fact that I was able to get Photoshop and Illustrator files sold me…but when I was just doing video editing I only had Motion Array.
I'm coming from a graphic/web design background and diving full on into video. This review helped switch my decision and I appreciate the various categories you reviewed each with - thanks! (found your video via a google search).
This is such a great review. Thanks so much for sharing! I truly wish that you do a similar review in the future, but from the seller perspective! *Basically explaining which one of those 2 websites pay more for the sellers whenever someone buys their (Assets, Templates, & Plugins)! Anyways, Thanks a lot, this is highly appreciated!
I've been using Motion Array and I've wondered what the difference was. Great vid! I'll be sticking with Motion Array for now but good to know I could save some money in the future if I ever switch
One difference more - you can not use music from envato in broadcast TV but in Motion Arrayou can. ("Broadcast use is not allowed. Please contact us if you wish to use the music for Broadcast".)
I'm #TeamEnvato after the Black Friday sale and list of assets. I downloaded a template for PP and the folder included a nice instructional tutorial. Great video!
I'm just starting out and I'm also a full-stack developer. I like what motion array has to offer as far as tools but elements gives me more to work with as far as content creation and web development all in one but I still would like to try out Motion Array when it gets larger and my video production skills get better.
Hi! I have just used your 70% (or kind of) discount link. Thx !!! Just to inform you all here, it only works for a monthly subscription. And my 5 pennies, I tried to cancel immediately, as to avoid the usual crappy "commercial" attitude when you try to unsubscribe later, and they offered me a second month with 70% discount. So I got that too. Nevertheless, I payed with PayPal and deleted the automatic renewal, to avoid "surprises". But I will accept next month when PayPal asks me if I accept the charge. THX again!! and as usual, fantastic videos at your "place!
Envato now has the plugin for Premiere Pro just like MA, so team Envato for now. I have used both for years and decided to use just one starting today. Thanks for the vs. Much appreciated.
#Teamenvato I've been using Envato Elements for awhile now and I love it. I've been seeing motion array everywhere lately. Thanks for this one. Great as always. 👍
#TeamEnvato - been using this service for years and it most of the time will have the assets and templates needed for certain projects. As a cartoon asset creator, it has served well
Great video. Which one is better for templates for Premiere Pro? I have tested Envato templates but many are dated and do not work with the latest version of Premiere Pro.
Wow… I really needed to see this video. I have been trying to figure out which one of these to choose. I was subscribed to both. Too much money, not enough use. #TeamEnvato. I was using Motion Array for years but I think Envato is a better choice. Thank you for your help.
As a graphic designer I already have a subscription with a stock library for photos and vectors which has put me off taking out a further subscription for video and music. However, if I could combine all of my needs within a single Envato subscription, then Ker-ching!!!!
I signed up forone month of Envato Elements like 4 years ago and they gave me an offer for $168/yr. I've been paying that ever since. Also, I use their fonts all the time. Their font discovery is great. I could go out to dafont or something, but Envato has killer font options.
Just a heads up, Envato no longer offers a trial period. A single month of subscription costs $40 vs $16.50 for an annual plan. Motion Array still lets you create an account to get the free labeled assets. They are $30 for a single month and $19 a month with an annual plan. Envato gives away like 12 random assets (music, audio, fonts, graphics, templates, etc.) that gets changed every month.
Wjhen using envato you would habe to add a new license for every single product you are using the download. When you just download a sound effect and you want to use it in 20 videos you have to create licenses for each of the videos. This makes it a bit complicated.
I’ve been using Motion Array for like 4 years now. I’ve tried envato about 3 times now. I find that Envato has a large library but it’s already across too many categories thus diluting the amount of actual motion graphics/presets/video templates available. Motion array I think has a better choice of MOGRTS and Davinci Resolve Macros. (In fact I couldn’t find any macros on envato when I just recently tried them in fact) Personally I just don’t need the other assets Envato offers so I stuck with motion array these years.
Hey Brad! Good points. I do love Motion Array’s template filter system especially for mogrts as I mention in the video. I haven’t fully explored the offerings yet for Davinci as I don’t use the software, but it makes sense if you need more variety of Davinci to go with MA. MA’s panel in Pr/Ae is also an awesome bonus.
A new stop by from a quick G-search on the matter & I must echo the other users who appreciate your thoroughness of detail - Thank You so much for this - EXCELLENT succinct synopsis!
I got tired of the poor music selection from Audioblocks and wanted to upgrade to something better, plus stock photos, video and more. Sounds like Envato is the way to go
Great. Can i use envato video previews still having the watermark, to create youtube videos? Will there be copyright claims from youtube or will i be unable to monetize my account too
Hi Kelsey, thanks for the video ✌🏼 Can we subscribe to both simultaneously and use them for a single video? Do you know if there is a term that creates this kind of problem?
what if i’m a noob and use final cut pro? i’m looking for assets that displays lists and other pop up text motion graphics - i don’t know what they’re called or how to better explain it… see i’m a noob. which should i go with? thanks
Love all your videos and you've taught me a lot. I was disappointed with "Envato Elements" over the holiday though on Black Friday. I tried to get the promotion they had and subscribe. I am in the US and I tried 2 different cards (Debit and credit card) and they would not go through for whatever reason. I reached out to them and they said it should have worked but don't know why. My test payment of a dollar went through okay but the full payment wouldn't. My banks cleared it to go but don't know what happened. Then I recieved an email stating "Hi there,
Regrettably, after further review, we’re using our discretion and will not be re-enabling your account.
Please note, your most recent order has been voided by our payment system, so no funds have been taken from your account. That was really disappointing for I was really looking forward to using them per your suggestion. Don't know if there's anything you could do to help in this situation. Just thought I'd throw it out. Would still love to use them. Keep doing what you do. You do an awesome job! Appreciate you.
If anything related to Adobe was removed from the equation, which one would you choose? In other words, if your main editing app was Filmora or Camtasia.
So question, why would you want to continue a year sub, if you take a month and grab all the stuff you really need and can use it forever?? Kinda makes sense as different projects come just to pop in for a month and grab it then..... eventually you will have all you need.... with the exceptions of video clips and music.
I've been doing extensive research on music platforms that I can use for my UA-cam videos and I'm still very undecided. but I noticed the music playing at the beginning and end of your video. What platform did you get it from?
Thanks for the vid! Future proof meaning, if I subscribe for some period and delete my subscription -- my published videos using the software won't be pulled? Or must I remain subscribed as long as videos are posted?
In envato when I download any templates I cant know the name of the music or sound or effects. This is a big problem I must to search and spend so much time to find the same music I lessened . What I must to do .
I recommend reaching out to the author of the template. I tend to use different music & sfx. Originally many of these templates came from VideoHive on Envato Market, so my suggestion would be to find the template on VideoHive and message the author there to see if they can give you the names.
Hi, I'm brand new to this and apologize if this has already been asked. I am currently working on editing and producing a vacation video and want to try Envato for the free trial. I read somewhere that, even though I have unlimited downloads during the free trial, they all have been watermarked essentially making them useless for my project. This true? I am considering subscribing but want to try it first as I'm not a creator per' se. I mostly edit and compile for friends and family but am seriously considering turning it into something more that would/could generate income.
Are you #TeamEnvato or #TeamMA? Leave a comment below! :) Envato Elements: 1.envato.market/FreeTrial or Motion Array: bit.ly/MotionArrayFree

#teamenvato I tried Motion Array, but Envato Elements is just better in every way.
#TeamEnvato
Envato Elements
your envato affiliate link doesnt work for 70% off, u have a new link for it ? I tried the one in your website as well and it also doesnt work
BEWARE - VERY Difficult to unsubscribe from Envato. I started the "Free Trial" - decided it was not for me at the time. They make it VERY DIFFICULT to unsubscribe. You cannot unsubscribe real time yourself. You have to put in a request. Then you get a warning that it may take them 5 days to respond which would be past your free period.

Yes I agree with Daniel. I got 70% off too
for my experiance, envanto is scamer.

Thank you so much for the kind words. Glad to have you a part of the community!
Couldn’t agree more! I was going to buy motion array but you changed my mind! So glad i founded this video!

Thank you! I’m glad it was helpful :-) There is no universal wrong choice here. Lots of different benefits to either side :-)
One extra benefit to Envato is there isn't a softlock to how fast you might download things. With Motion Array they will eventually start to Captcha soft lock you if you are downloading too much or too fast.
Envato does the same.
@@MehdiH1976 hmm interesting, never happened to me at all in my time using it.
@@WasabiBlues happened to me a couple of times. When I wrote them they said that if you download a lot it happens as a safety measure.
I actually switched from Motion Array to Envato Elements. The fact that I was able to get Photoshop and Illustrator files sold me…but when I was just doing video editing I only had Motion Array.

Thank you for the info. Nicely done! We’ve been #TeamEnvato for several years. It gives us the content we need.
I use both, the issue with Elements is quality when it comes to stock footage. Motionarray footage are very professional and high quality.
Motion Array was the commercial before I watched this video :)
Thanks this is a good comparison. I was considering both but Envato is almost twice as much when paying monthly so I decided to go for Motion Array 👍
Valuable comparisons. Thank you Kel. You have helped me master my software for many years. Uncovering things I didn't know existed. Thank you. Nick
It's really a very good comparison. Thank you for your effort and information. Loves from Turkey.
Great info! I love your videos Gal :)
this was incredibly helpful! you're awesome
Love it! More informative videos like this please!
I use Envato since one year. They have awesome stuff but sometimes it seems that they accept quiet crappy stuff just to have A LOT.
Extremely helpful video!! Think we're going with Envato!

Thank you soooo much for breaking this down, This was exactly what I needed!!!
Envato elements is simply fenomenal!
Awesome! You have cleared my confusion. Thanks a lot
i got the 70% disscounted code thanks!
Love your video it was clear and to the point good job THANKS

Is Envato Elements the same as Envato Market? If I sub to elements can I also download stuff from the market?
@@Twitch-vv6en no. They are not the same. The market is where third party vendors sell specialized items.
Case closed! Very thorough!

if I get this.. do I need canva? Can i remove background and make thumbnails via envato?
What's your microphone setting? What kind of micro are you using for your videos? Just wondering and curious. Thank you!

Hi Kelsey, thanks for the video ✌🏼 Can we subscribe to both simultaneously and use them for a single video? Do you know if there is a term that creates this kind of problem?
How does the licensing differ? Is an active plan needed to use the assets from both?
Yes
thanx Kelsey for a profound review, #teamenvato here :)
