I used this software daily for years, I know it so well. Pros I love how easy and approachable Vegas Pro is. I mostly used Vegas Pro 12, using it almost daily. I was pretty much always working on a project in Vegas Pro. It is much easier to get into than Adobe Premier Pro and After Effects. It's a great alternative to Final Cut Pro if you don't have a Mac! Cons I experienced several crash issues in the past, though I am sure they have dealt with many of those problems in recent updates. Other than that, no compaints! Alternatives considered [Adobe Premiere Pro](https://www.capterra.com/p/233456/Adobe-Premiere-Pro/) Reason for choosing VEGAS Pro Easier to get into. Review Source Lucila Z.

Cons Me he topado con algunos errores en el programa pero lo bueno y más destacable de VEGAS Pro es sus constantes actualizaciones en los que mejoran funcionalidades y añaden otras nuevas.

" September 21, 2023 4.0 MAGIX Vegas Pro logiciel est un logiciel de montage vidéo bien connu des professionnels pour son ensemble complet d'outils de montage vidéo, d'effets spéciaux et sa robustesse au traitement audio. Essayez-le et vous constaterez aussi sa puissance! Pros Magix Vegas Pro est un logiciel puissant possédant des fonctionnalités avancées dans l'édition vidéo et de correction colorimétrique. ce logiciel possède aussi une fonction de stabilisation vidéo qui permet de corriger les tremblements dans une vidéo afin d'obtenir un rendu plus fluide. Il prend en charge également une large gamme de formats allant au-delà de 4k. Cons Le coût de ce logiciel est assez élevé et à cause de ses fonctionnalités avancées, il se peut que les nouveaux utilisateurs devront certainement se familiariser à sa prise en main.

Pros Vegas Pro is easy to pick up and use, and it is fairly intuitive for its most basic features, and learning to use the more advanced suite of tools is not very hard, which makes this a great tool for beginners. Cons Other programs do a much better job at the most complicated tasks of video editing and effects. This is the place where Vegas Pro lags behind other more established alternatives.

Other NLEs' timelines feel clunky (I've use almost every major editor). Rather than holding to firmly to a layout which is over-inspired by outdated linear editing systems, Vegas has always (even since the Sonic Foundry years) been one of the quickest NLE's to learn. Pros I love the unique qualities that allow the user to be able to alter and edit video from color to manipulations. With endless ability to get added transitions, and capability to render any way you prefer I think it is a unique user experience that I can't get anywhere else. Best of all? It is easy to learn if you are willing to look up some youtube tutorials. I have used this for years. Get it. Cons Some advanced manipulations are difficult, and in regard to free transitions and such, options are slightly limited. I can't say much else is a dislike. Reason for choosing VEGAS Pro I mostly use Vegas for creating and editing Youtube videos for different channels. Since the templates are not often changed and mostly I use After Effects for Visual Graphics and Effects, Sony Vegas is the right and appropriate tool for me to render videos faster and smoothly.

I used it +3 years for most video and audio editing tasks. It has all the tools I needed to make professional videos. Pros It’s very flexible and easy to use. It offers a powerful audio editing function. Built-in effects are high-quality and suitable for professional use. Cons It’s a little bit expensive. Sometimes it crashes while working on projects without clear reasons. Adding more transitions would be great. Review Source AS Azzahra S.

Tiene una interfaz muy intuitiva y fácil de usar, me permite realizar cotes, añadir efectos, transiciones y otros elementos de forma simple. Además, cuenta con plugins y complementos con los que puedes conseguir un resultado más personalizado según los requerimientos. Cons Sería interesante que añadieran más elementos, transiciones y efectos de texto para tener mejorar la creatividad. Por lo demás VEGAS Pro va de maravilla Review Source SD Simone D. Ingegnere Defense & Space Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "La sua interfaccia utente intuitiva e ben strutturata rende facile da usare anche per i principianti" July 3, 2023 3.0 Sony Vegas Pro è un potente software di editing video che offre molte opzioni e funzioni per creare produzioni professionali. Tuttavia, la sua complessità, la stabilità e il prezzo potrebbero essere degli ostacoli per alcuni utenti Pros Una delle caratteristiche più apprezzate di Sony Vegas Pro è la sua vasta gamma di effetti e plugin disponibili. È possibile aggiungere transizioni fluide, animazioni sofisticate e filtri di alta qualità per migliorare la qualità dei video. Cons Sony Vegas Pro può risultare un po' complesso per chi non ha mai utilizzato un software di editing video in precedenza. La curva di apprendimento potrebbe richiedere tempo e pazienza. Inoltre, la versione più recente del software può risultare un po' instabile, con frequenti crash e blocchi improvvisi.

January 3, 2023 5.0 Simplicity when editing, however, we have to be very careful: after executing each command, remember to press control + S so as not to lose work in case of a bug, which is common in vegas. Pros Easy to import, edit texts, insert effects and render. Cons I didn't find the feature to configure automatic adjustment when pasting audio and video tracks after cutting during editing. I have to do this manually. That, plus hours of editing, is time consuming. Review Source JH Jakub H. Founder / Designer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Video editing if others does not fit " July 31, 2022 2.0 I used it for a trial to get a sense of the software. It can be used normally by people who are not fine with other industry leading applications. But for me it was painful to use it and to look for similarities with other apps. I guess there is always two kinda of people. Ones who like the shiny interface of Vegas and are ok with the terminology and the others. Pros The interface is fine for a beginner oso someone who is not familiar with video editing. It can be quickly understood and used. Cons After using Vegas for a while and trying to get into a more serious apps you realize that the industry standard is somewhere else and the issues start to line-up since you need to look for tools in different context menus and the naming can be difficult to transpone.

Now, I am actually looking to get a different editing software the actually helps its customers. Pros The software was easy to use and as I mentioned the learning curve was quite easy. More complex operations required some research but usually the problem at hand was easy to solve and the results were impressive. Cons Before it was sold by Sony, it was easy to ask questions and get technical support. Now, it's nearly impossible to get any help or support. Their website is useless when it comes to addressing customer service. Reason for choosing VEGAS Pro Ease of use. Review Source Eduardo P.

Pero he visto que hay programas que están superandolo mucho, y están ofreciendo una experiencia mejor. Pros Me ha gustado mucho su facilidad de uso y lo rápido que uno se puede familiarizar con el software. Al igual que también ofrece una gran variedad de efectos y transiciones. Y también se puede instalar diferentes paquetes de efectos para tener una experiencia mejor en la edición de video y generar algo más profesional Cons Creo que falta mejorar un poco en ciertos efectos que ofrece el programa, como su rastrerización, estabilización de video, entre otros.

Artist/Event Planner/Visual Designer Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best for home and budget projects, not so good for professional jobs..." February 4, 2021 5.0 Overall experience with Vegas was good, I had to leave the software once I learned a lot and started doing more professional work. It's okay for beginners and budget/home projects.  Price is too high, feels clunky and outdated and that's a con.  Pros I use Vegas even before MAGIX bought it, the software is really great, and it helped me a lot when it was my only option a few years ago, when my computer wasn't that great. Vegas is the perfect choice for rookies on video edition, you can learn the basics on aspect ratios, cut-and-paste fragments of video, resolutions, audio parameters, etc. The tools can be pretty advanced and useful if you know how to use them, there are solutions for everything related to video edition on Vegas, you can even do some animation and automated effects. The rendering times are pretty great, even on low-end computers.  Cons It's not the best for professional use and commercial projects, it can be kind of clunky and the learning curve is slow and very frustrating. Templates for text and cards on video feels really outdated. Animation and automation tools are not the best, while they work, they require, in fact, a lot of hard work to function properly. The prices for it are really high. Review Source daU dj amsterdam U.

DaVinci Resolve free version works much better which is a big surprise. Pros I do like fx features and the workflow, but none of my new camera gear will work in it anymore. Cons Why does Magix think .mov files are obsolete and always related to Quicktime which they are doing away with? It is my understanding that .mov is just a container, and codec can vary in containers. For instance, my new Atomos Ninja V recorder uses .mov containers with DNxHR codex. Does not work in Vegas but it works without any problems in the free version of DaVinci Resolve. Same thing with 2 of my new action action cameras that also use the .mov container, but it works great in DaVinci Resolve. Vegas Pro also does not have Prores support. What can I actually use Vegas Pro 17 for? Does not work at all for my Atomos Recorder or action cams. I can do a couple tweaks for my Atomos with the DNxHR codex installed separately, but I can't get video on action cameras. I regret spending the money on Vegas Pro 17 now.
