Digital Media Executive Hospital & Health Care, 11-50 employees Used the software for: 6-12 months ** Overall Rating 2.0 ** Ease of Use 3.0 Customer Service 3.0 Features 4.0 Value for Money 3.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10% 1/10 Reviewer Source Source: Capterra May 4, 2026 "Gave it a try but I will not renew" **Pros:** The AI features are very useful, and it's not too difficult to get used to the overall function and interface. **Cons:** As someone who has used many professional (Adobe Premiere) and beginner friendly video editors, there's a lot of room for improvement. 1. The subtitle editing is very buggy, even if I had changed the wordings in the sidebar, they don't show up correctly in the preview, and I've been met with many instances of incorrect wrong subtitles in final video. 2. The editor is very taxing on the system (even though my system meets the requirement and beyond) for some reason, I've had to restart and redo my edits in my instances because when I moved too quickly the software stopped responding, if my video files are too large, it becomes very laggy. 3. The UI is not very intuitive, keyboard shortcuts are hard to remember. **Switched From:** [Adobe Premiere Pro](https://www.capterra.com/p/233456/Adobe-Premiere-Pro/) **Reasons for Switching to PowerDirector:** Switched from Capcut due to user content ownership and copyright concern. Capcut was my go to because it's not expensive very easy to use. Adobe Premiere Pro is great but I don't need most of the advance features for my current work, and it's too expensive. Grayden G.
