Easy Sketch Pro Review

Easy Sketch Pro Review

Easy Sketch Pro is a software for Mac & PC that allows you to create high quality hand drawn doodle videos for an extremely low cost.

Hiring an artist or a company to create a similar video can cost thousands of dollars, making Easy Sketch Pro a great option for small business owners and solopreneurs who want to create high-quality whiteboard animations without breaking the bank.

We've used it to create several marketing videos for Happy Hour, including our Avatar Workshop video (which has earned several thousand dollars to date).

Whiteboard animations

Keep in mind, this video was done with the voiceover directly into the software (we'll talk about that in a minute), as well as images we purchased that were not included in the software (also discussed below).

Easy Sketch Pro Image Library

Easy Sketch Pro comes with a pretty basic image library, but the owner, Paul Lynch, sends an email almost every Friday with new drawings you can add. This definitely increases the functionality over time, but out of the gate we found it a bit lacking.

That being said, we upgraded our library with a package of images by Doodle Labs we think is FAR superior to what comes with the software. (Just as an aside, these images also work with Explaindio, VideoScribe and VideoMakerFX if you currently own or use those software programs).

How is the Sound Quality?

The Easy Sketch Pro software allows you to add either a pre-recorded audio track, or to record your voiceover directly into the software. Unfortunately the audio quality from the direct recording technology is very low.

(As we mentioned before, you can see an example of this in our Avatar Workshop Video. The sound quality isn't great, but hasn't stopped the video from converting sales).

Another shortcoming is that the software doesn't pick up sound from your external microphone (can only use your computer's built in mic), which makes it hard to get good sounding audio.

This is easy to work around by pre-recording your voiceover using free software like Audacity, or a premium solution like Audello, and then adding it in as an MP3 track. This allows you to record your audio using your favorite microphone and will give you a much better finished product.

Is Easy Sketch Pro the Best Whiteboard Animation Software?

We've used several whiteboard animation softwares, and Easy Sketch Pro is definitely the best for the price. Our true favorite is VideoScribe by Sparkol, but the steep monthly fee ($30/month as opposed to $29 one time) is a big deterrent for us as we don't create enough videos to make it worthwhile for our business.

We're also big fans of VideoMakerFX for creating explainer videos, but when it comes to the actual hand-drawn whiteboard animations, Easy Sketch Pro beats it hands down.

      LOL David… I think 99% of people would have a hard time creating their own sketch video without software. Definitely a much faster and more affordable option! Thanks for stopping by the blog!

  1. I purchased the program and it’s great. The program requires that you enter in your email address and your auth code every time. It does not require an internet connection, however the help and support are there when you need it when the connection exists. The solution for entering in your email address and auth code is to go to https://youtu.be/IYSHas_LKLo (EasySketch Pro 3 | ESP program Solves Login)

    I am not a developer but I love solving problems. I am sure if enough people ask, this small task will be changed. In the mean while, the EasySketch Pro 3 is excellent. I purchased this program as an investment and it is worth every penny. There are features to the program that make it easy to use and experiment. I love to experiment. I recently discovered that my cell phone recordings are worth their weight in gold when integrating them into EasySketch.

    If you believe your work has to be perfect then, you are not alone. Do not let perfection get in the way because EasySketch does all of the magic.

  2. Hello, I enjoyed your review of ESP 3.0 My question is in regard to the images. You mentioned it was lacking and you upgraded with ones from Doodle Labs. I am wondering if you started with the “Starter” ESP or if you had the “Business” version since this one comes with over 1200 or so images and soundtrack.
    Thank you
    Serge

    1. Hi Serge, the version we purchased didn’t have those ad ons… sound like there’s a good chance you’d have everything you need with the business version. I think it comes down to a matter of preference… there are quite a few 3rd party stock image libraries you can purchase, and it really depends on what style of drawing you like. We really liked the Doodle Labs ones but you might find you like another one better 🙂

      1. Hi Dawn

        Thanks for your reply. One more question to clarify, are you using the starter or the mid-grade version. I’m guessing mid-grade since your videos don’t have the “made by EasySketchPro” watermark.
        Thanks
