Kaitlin C
Ceo
3.0

Kaitlin C.: My name's Kaitlin and I am a graphic designer for a promotional product and workforce development company, and I give Blender a 3 out of 5. And other products that we had been using, and one that was more cost-effective and more easily available to our clientele and our employees as they're low income, so. Join the more accessible 3D aspects, it's in this day and age, with 3D printers and other... It just seemed more fun to be doing things the natural 3D on the screen, as opposed to the two dimensionals that was much more catered towards that. And that was one of my favorites aspects. It was just really hard to adapt from one program to another for me and a few others that were trained solely on the other program. And so, it was just the learning curve was there's not much out there on that can learn how to use it as opposed to some other software, so it was just a complicated transition.

Xavier S
Owner
4.0

Xavier S.: My name is Xavier. I'm the owner of Tahoe Music Institute and I teach piano lessons and do performing and do video recordings and audio engineering stuff, and I gave VideoStudio a four out of five. While using VideoStudio, I didn't have any video editing software, and I started using it because I needed to record videos and edit them. My video editing software, because it was on sale at a great price, and it was very beginner, user friendly, it was very easy to use. Very easy to get started using VideoStudio. Everything's all laid out in the software. It's just drag and drop to use any type of filters or any type of editing tools. So it's not like the very high-end video editing software where it's kind of confusing, but just for very beginner friendly. For anyone who wants to start doing some video editing, I would highly recommend VideoStudio because it's very beginner friendly. My recommendations, if you're wanting to use VideoStudio is buy it when it's at a good price on sale, and it's almost always on sale and get the ultimate bundle. I think that's what it's called, because then you'll have access to all of the tools and it's great. You only buy it once and you don't have to worry about it again, not like that. There's a recurring membership purchase that you have to do.
