I like that it is affordable with tons of features, and most of all, when I was having issues with the last upgrade, customer service fixed it for me in under 10 minutes. I thought it wouldn't be worth the hassle and was considering buying another kind of software, but it was so easy to fix the issue. Pros I'm a novice, but I like that after a bit of learning, I could use it creatively with more options than I really needed Cons I feel like it is more on me as a novice user, but it take a long time to edit video!

Compatible with a variety of video formats. Being easy to use, you can save time, which you can expend to other projects. Pros It's easy to use, which is important if like you are an amateur in video editing. The interface is very intuitive despite this in English which is not my native language. It is a lightweight program and does not require an overly powerful computer. It is compatible with many video formats. Cons I consider that this software is more oriented to make amateur videos, tutorials or even simple videos for youtube. If you are looking for professional software to edit short films or audiovisual material for film and television, this tool is not for you. This tool is not so precise to cover, from frame to frame, the details that may have an error of origin at the time of recording. The effects library is not wide and clean compared to other professional software. Review Source Shari P. Filmmaker Broadcast Media Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Perfect software for your intro to professional video editing! " November 4, 2018 4.0 Overall, 9/10 for me, little to no kinks or issues, it gets the job done, and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to launch their career in video editing! Pros I love that it is easy to navigate. It was perfect for showing me and my colleagues the ropes of video editing. Has most of the features that any other editing software would have, did not feel as if I was missing our in any way. Cons I don't think there is much to dislike at all.

Pros It is very simple but very effective to use with a high quality HD Audio / Video output. Also, the video and audio channel offers multiple layers, enabling video editor to add different visuals and adjust differs audios. It comes with additional audio wave pad mixer enabling a perfect audio transitions and videos transitions cuts .

Pros It has countless features that enables its users to familiarize themselves with the software without any predicaments, one can easily locate features, thus making the process more delightful.

Cons Credo che non sia ottimale per chi richiede effetti più complessi, che su altri software è più facile realizzare rispetto a questo qui, che offre già modelli pronti ma non permette effetti più "giovanili" d'oggi.

December 30, 2019 3.0 Terrible customer service, after paid, they don't answer emails. Horrible Export Speed. Pros You can add clips easily, all the buttons function, so many features to ADD items but that's where it stops. See my CONS report on why. Cons Horrible upload speeds, 12-18 hours to export a 43-minute clip to youtube? TWO HOURS FOR A NINE MINUTE CLIP??? Are we serious here? We run a reality show on YouTube and have quickly realized this will cost us our fans if we can not upload our vids in time. Reason for choosing VideoPad Found it had good reviews, tested the free version then realized its crap as far as to export speed.

Por supuesto que tienen derecho a cobrar pero que lo digan desde el primer momento, es una forma de presionarte para que pagues, pues de lo contrario pierdes todo el tiempo que has empleado. ¿Que se puede esperar de una empresa con tal falta de ética? Pros un editor bastante normalito, nada del otro mundo Cons Todo funciona de forma mediocre. Los Textos y titulos son un engorro, muy limitados. Review Source Elliot Osazuwa U.

It provides me with all I need for creating a professional video as long as I have quality clips and audio to start with. I recommend it for how easy it is and that it can work on slower/older systems. Pros Its fast and its simple to use. Great for using on a laptop for fast video editing on the go. The features are basic but has all you need to produce a professional video. The low overhead is great for using on entry level systems. Cons At times you miss some of the more advanced features, especially if you have issues with the raw video or audio clips. Color correcting is hard to do.
