    I haven't "stuck" with anything. It still hasn't been figured out. There are no clear cut winners here yet. But. Here is what I prefer.

    1. Straight html5 with greensock. This is great for simple ads. But im not confident enough to do anything exciting. I use the other things if we need anything like gallery or video.

    2. Flite - Great features and customizable components. UI feels great, like photoshop for banners. But still a web interface. And your creative is locked in their ecosystem so you have to use them for serving. This makes it difficult to use.

    3. GWD (google) - Just OK. It can make straight html5 that you can give to sites. Pretty good components. Its really good for starting out because you can layout the ad in GWD and export the html5 to tweak outside of the web interface. The UI is horrible and clunky. The ad often gets corrupt when changing things around. SUPER Frustrating. Still feel ultra beta. But when it works it works.

    4. Everything else feels like the same shitty web UI with a different company name. They all can do the same things.

    • Really like GSAP but yeah, anything other than straight tweens could be difficult without a timeline.fyoucher1
