### "Clipchamp is definitely a winner in its category"

March 16, 2026

4.0

I like Clipchamp and always recommend it to others because it really is reliable and simple to use. Editing videos can be a challenge if you are not familiar with the process. Music is also pretty decent, you just have to dig a little bit to find the right vibe for the content. Overall a fantastic tool, very user friendly, and can produce a professional piece of content in a quick amount of time.

Pros

Clipchamp is free to use which is always a bonus and it’s pretty user friendly. Has lots of transitions and features that make it fairly easier for even a novice to be able to edit a solid clip.

Cons

While it is a professional tool, I would like there to be some more options available especially for extra designs that can be added to your videos. Such as texts, overlays, and images that can be included into your clips.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Clipchamp

I still use some other tools but I typically start with Clipchamp to blend the content together in the tool.

### "Review On Clipchamp "

April 24, 2026

4.0

It is one of the best video softwares I have ever used. It is easy to use though a lot of it you have to pay for.

Pros

Clipchamp is very easy to use after you learn the basics. It has some good features such as splitting, it is very useful.

Cons

The element about clipchamp I liked the least is that it takes hours to finish one product and a lot of the stuff is payed.

### "Easy to Use Video Editor for Everyday Content Creation"

June 2, 2026

3.0

My overall experience with Clipchamp has been positive. It provides a good balance between simplicity and useful editing features. I have used it for creating short videos presentations and social media content and the process has been smooth. It is a great option for beginners as well as anyone looking for a straightforward video editing tool without a steep learning curve.

Pros

I started using Clipchamp to create videos for social media and personal projects. What I like most is how easy it is to use. The layout is clean and I was able to start editing without watching tutorials. The builtin templates transitions and text effects help save time and make videos look more professional. It also works well for basic editing tasks like trimming adding music and creating shortform content.

Cons

The software works well overall but sometimes it can be a bit slow when handling longer videos or multiple effects. I also noticed that some features and premium assets require a paid plan which can be limiting for users who only use the free version.

### "Beginner friendly video editing software with ai features"

February 14, 2025

4.0

Its a browser based built in most windows systems. It is owned by Microsoft. I explored and used this software when i first got my hands on my new laptop. It is a very good user friendly interface for beginners.You can create unlimited videos and incorporate stock images as well but it has limited features.

Pros

It is built in most of the windows systems . It is a free quick video editing where you can do your basic editing like adding music, adding different pictures and video clips for yourself. You get plenty of templates , music choices to choose from if you are using any video editing software for the first time

Cons

You cant do some important basic operations like increasing the brightness , exposure etc. You will have to buy a premium version later to get rid of watermark ,to access some premium features like a few transitions , music choices and more.

### "If you really need a video editor, it's fun for learning."

December 11, 2025

4.0

Useful for basic editing but I grew bored feeling limited, and went back to adobe premiere for anything meaningful.

Pros

There's a free version, it's somewhat easy to use and learn if you've ever used a video editor. You can create basic videos and do basic editing without premium version. The quality of video is customizable. There's plenty of options for text, voice and images. Never had an issue with security and never needed customer support.

Cons

it was a bit laggy and, even with the paid version, i felt limited. it also didnt work on mac well or at all, and i had a hard time transferring files to work on 2 separate

### "Great for quick video jobs! "

October 4, 2025

5.0

Clip champ is excellent for what I use it for, in tandem with other programs. I essentially use it for basic video cropping to decrease file size and also to chance video file types so that they are compatible with the software I use for editing.

Pros

I love that you can change the file type of a video with this software. This is one of the only softwares I have access to that will allow me to do this and it’s a game changer. Especially because it’s already integrated into Microsoft.

Cons

Clip champ has basic level editing tools available. It would be amazing if it there were higher level editing tools like background remove and an eraser tool, but I realize that would probably knock it into a higher cost tier.

### "Perfect for Simple Video Editing"

March 9, 2026

5.0

It works well when I need to send an accident video to my insurance company and the file size is too large. It compresses the video quickly without any trouble.

Pros

Very easy to use. It works well when I need to reduce video file size. I just drag the video in, adjust the quality, and export. The speed is fast, and the process is simple.

Cons

Editing features are basic. If you want more professional level tools, you might need a different app.

August 13, 2025

5.0

Overall I have a very pleasant experience with Clipchamp. I'm able to create videos quickly and efficiently to help drive sales.

Pros

Editing both pictures, video, and music are very easy and user-friendly. You don't need much experience in order to produce high-quality clips quickly.

Cons

At the beginning it can be hard to use, especially if you don't have experience editing videos with similar programs.

### "One of the best editing software apps in the world"

November 26, 2022

5.0

Overall, Clipchamp has been very useful to me, and I like it very much, because since the first time I opened the app, I knew how to use it due to its interface (it’s easy to use). I love that it has a lot of tools for decorating your videos, like filters, texts,

Pros

I liked everything about Clipchamp. Is one of the best editing apps I’ve tried, because it has so much tools for creating indredible videos, and one of the most important things, is easy to use. The interface has tools that are very easy to recognize, which is what makes it more bearable for everyone, even those who have never edited!

Cons

The only thing that I didn’t like that much, is that even paying the Microsoft license, you have to pay for another “VIP” tools at the app, and I don’t think that’s much fair. But you can easily use the app paying the Microsoft license which includes other platforms like Word, Power Point, Excel, Outlook, etc.

### "Horrible! No Live Customer Service! Editing Qualities the Worse! "

April 5, 2024

1.0

But for the issues I mentioned the finished product is great but these vital issues makes this app horrible bc in the blogger youtube & other sites you need to get your content up as quickly as possible.

Pros

One of the few editing apps out there for first time bloggers that's popular. If the editing feaatures where not so bad it would be a pretty good app

Cons

No live immediate customer service that you can speak with or even chat with to resolve vital editing functioning issues or any issues for that matter. The editing tool is horrible. It will Flicker, get's stuck, it has to be relaunched quite often. on the upgraded for 11.99 they have copywriten music there and you don't know it until you upload your youtube video the music is copywritten. preventing you form monetizing fully. And the worse is there is no live cuatomer service reps to address issues, the chat CS is up to 12 days for response. Im current searching for another app to do my video's on.

### "Worst video editing software available"

March 31, 2023

1.0

Incredibly frustrating and time consuming.

Pros

Absolutely nothing. There are no redeeming qualities of this software.

Cons

The software is completely unusable. It takes anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour to upload ONE video clip that is only 1/2 a GB. Once it is finished uploading, it disappears from the "My Media" list and is not able to be put into the video. Waste of time, complete garbage software. Stay away.

### "Great App for Reels!"

January 23, 2024

5.0

Pros

Clipchamp allows users to choose the orientation of video and edit accordingly, which has made a huge difference in how I create Instagram Reels or any vertical video. Very easy to use, layer as many channels as you need!

Cons

Would be nice to have some more free sounds to use. Not much outside of premium but can bring in own files too.

March 8, 2023

Pros

Reminds us a lot of the old windows movie maker, so it was really easy to figure out and use. Has enough options on video editing for our uses, also not too much to be overwhelmed.

Cons

Have't run into any problems so far, so cannot complain

### "Great Desktop Editor"

April 27, 2021

5.0

Love Clipchamp, an overall fantastic desktop editing system.

Pros

I love how easy this is to use. You can grab videos directly off your phone too, which is extremely easy to do and super helpful considering that most of the videos I take are with my phone. Great templates and fonts too, and it makes our videos look great!

Cons

Sometimes I need to add audio separately to video and marrying the audio and video together tends to be a bit painful as you can't zoom in and move the audio file as smoothly as I'd like, to match the video with ease. Hope that made sense. I also wish there was a mobile app that we could use too!

June 12, 2023

5.0

Overall great, the free version offers enough functionality for so many of my day-day tasks. I will most definitely look into a premium subscription.

Pros

Lots of templates prebuilt for various types of social media

Cons

I only wish that I could purchase a lifetime license for premium features rather than monthly, and a little more advanced audio editing features when merging audio to video files

### "Clip Champ is great for small business use. "

December 14, 2021

4.0

Clipchamp is straight forward. It also offers tutorials right on site in the event that you have basic video creation questions.

Pros

Adding media to my library was super simple. Then, adding these pieces of media to my timeline for video creation was even more simple. This is great for re-merging Zoom conference recordings.

Cons

There were times that I had to start over because the audio lagged or wouldn't line up properly with the video media I had added to it. This may have been a user error on my part.
