Phd Biotechnology Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great " February 12, 2022 5.0 Pros iMovie is a simple video production software, I usually use it to edit videos to give joy and emotion to my family Cons A lot of complex things may require further study, not very easy Review Source RD Rodrigo D. Owner, estrategias digitales Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Thank you Mr. Apple" June 11, 2021 5.0 iMovie has become my must trusted editor. I truly recommend it. Pros I am not an expert in video editors but occasionally I have the necessity of using one. Of all the editors I have used so far, iMovie has been my favorite. I like the ease of use of the editor and the variety of functions available. It is nice that unlike other editors, this one doesn’t leave an annoying watermark in your project. Cons Sometimes whenever you want to import some files, iMovie takes too much time to load or automatically reject them. Like every Apple software, this one is also exclusive for Apple users. Personally, I believe everyone should have access to this program. Switched from [Filmora](https://www.capterra.com/p/186540/Filmora/) As an apple user, I prefer iMovie. Review Source Federico L.

Pros The ease in which you can compile, organize and then present your precious memories is awesome. It has never been so quick to do with the built in iPhone app. Back in my day, it used to take a slow loading adobe software on a desktop computer that could barely connect to dial up internet in order to produce a film you can now do it with a few clicks in your hand. Cons If you have too many other programs running, it seems to freeze up more often than I'd like. I would recommend being sure you save as you go just in case. Review Source SM Stefano M. FOTO Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "FACILE VELOCE E INTUITIVO" March 21, 2024 5.0 Pros Imovie rispecchia il software di videoeditig per tutti, naturalmente ha delle funzionalità nascoste da livello pro, ma sicuramente è alla portata di tutti e utile per iniziare ad editare video. Il vantaggio è che puoi gestirlo su tutti i tuoi dispositivi apple. Ottimo prodotto lo consiglio Cons Non credo di aver avuto mai inconvenienti, tranne per il fatto che su Iphone magati essendo touch non è preciso come sul Mac, ma in sè è un prodotto valido in tutto.

Pros Easy to set up and learn. I was new but easily made my movie. Cons I had to start over many times bc clips were over lapping and I couldn’t get that undone. Review Source Susan H. Co-Owner Farming Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Video Editing for the Beginner" February 2, 2021 5.0 I use this exclusively for training videos and uploading on YouTube. With little training, I look professional. Pros I especially appreciate the simplicity and intuitive functionality of iMovie for editing my training videos. Cons The main drawback is the filing system; even after several years of use, it's not intuitive. Reason for choosing iMovie I had no need for high-end functions and features. Since iMovie came with my computer at no extra cost I found it met my requirements for a simple video editing software. Review Source Daniel L.

Pros For mac users is very friendly and intuitive. You don't need to be a pro to make a good video. Cons They can improve the sharing capabilities for different platforms. Or, at least, make it easier Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Appraiser Arts and Crafts Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Complex tool " November 13, 2023 3.0 I used iMovie to make short promotional films for my company. It did the job but I had trouble using it and had to re do the whole thing multiple times. But it may very well be due to my incompetence in making films ! Pros I feel like iMovie is a professional and comprehensive tool for making films or short films. Cons Honestly I am no professional in movie making and I felt like it was not very intuitive to use.

Pros iMovie is easy to use and to get started with, it has many good features such as easy video editing tools and nice templates.

Graphic designer Graphic Design Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "iMovie best movies editor" August 15, 2023 4.0 Pros When it comes to fast, efficient, no-fuss video editing with quality results, I recommend iMovie. Give it a try and you'll see how advanced its editing, timeline, import and export features are. Cons It would be a good idea to add codecs for exporting in several formats, and that's it. Review Source AS Aimee S. Self-employed Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Creative Time!" April 21, 2022 5.0 I have saved on labor costs by doing things myself. Who wants to pay for someone else to do something that the person can do for himself or herself? Pros I like this already came with my laptop software, because I am easy able to adapt to materials that are already on it. I did not go to college for any IT tech class as well, so this eases me into it. This was free, too. Cons I do not like that this requires me to wait a minute to pull up on my laptop.

There is no doubt in my mind that others should try it for their projects. Pros Editing our company's independent short films and commercials is incredibly smooth. The wide range of options for producing top-tier videos is impressive. Cons There's a tad bit of lag when previewing clips, however, other than that, we haven't had any issues.
