I like that you can use your own assets, or create new ones without any fuss. It is easy to learn how it works, but it also has some features I don't really understand yet (or at least haven't discovered). I would advice beginners to start with the free version first, so they get used to all functions before buying it. You have to know what you want from this software. So plan ahead. Some tasks are easier than others. For example creating animated scenes in which more than one character appears. This makes things quite complicated! But if everything fits together as planned, then it's great.
