Thank you, Movavi. Pros I prefer Movavi video editing software over other video editing software because Movavi has a simpler menu, making it easier for us to work on editing videos. This is very helpful and allows the video editing process to be completed faster. Another advantage is that Movavi Video Editor is connected to third-party applications, such as YouTube, so we don't have to repeat the task of uploading the edited video. I highly recommend this software. Cons The Movavi Video Editor software has a good layout and menu design, but there are still a few things that need to be added, such as more options for effects, sounds, and transitions. Switched from [VEGAS Pro](https://www.capterra.com/p/196011/VEGAS-Pro/) I have difficulty using Magix Vegas software because there are many menus that I don't understand. Review Source Paméla L.

My computer just crashed down when I do the video editing and it was very complicated to have a customer service to have a new activation key for my new computer. You try to charge auto-renew without my conscent. I paid 100$ for one video editing, it's very expensive! I don't recommand Movavi Video Éditor, even to my ennemies! Pros The application it's ok, but my creation was very complicated with many problem due to the activation Key. The video quality is good. But i don't recommand Movavi for many reasons. Cons Have a ethical marketing practice. You guys tempted to fraud your customer by facture even if we desactivate the auto-renew. And you try to pretend that you're Davinci Resolve in Google Search. I had to check my mailbox for not have to pay for a auto-renew even if I cancel it on your Website. Review Source LW LaDonna W.

I work with support tasks myself on a daily basis, and this video editing program just made it so much easier for me to quickly produce a video for a supplier. Pros The user interface is simple and very intuitive, meaning it's easy to understand. And thus designed so that users can get started quickly with just a few taps. Cons I have tried quite a few video editor programs, but this has definitely become my favorite, after only 10 minutes of use. I have nothing bad to say about this program Switched from [Filmora](https://www.capterra.com/p/186540/Filmora/) too complicated, bad user interface. Time consuming Review Source DN David N. Personal Online Media Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "It is INCOMPATIBLE with uncompressed AVI files (at least with the macOS version)" May 31, 2025 1.0 I have not been able to accomplish anything for my video conversion projects other than discovering that their claim of supporting uncompressed AVI files is false. The result of MP4 converted from my uncompressed AVI video files is audio only. Pros The UI is pretty intuitive to me. I'm sure this program is fairly easy to use for many. I also like that the application is compiled to run natively on Apple silicon Macs. Cons At least on the macOS version, it does not support playing or converting from AVI files that are uncompressed despite what their website advertised.

Pros It is a program with great editing tools, there are several possibilities for modifying video, audio and text, the best thing about this program is the practicality and ease of accessing it, it is very easy and uncomplicated. Cons I believe that a lack of diversity in the audios was a factor that bothered me, there are great sounds and audios to be used, but there should be greater diversity to give us a greater possibility of creation. Switched from [DaVinci Resolve](https://www.capterra.com/p/209733/DaVinci-Resolve/) It was a very difficult program to use, and there were features that I didn't need that much. Review Source Don M. Assistant Manager Telecommunications Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Simple, Powerful, and Efficient Video Editing Tool" March 27, 2026 4.0 Overall, my experience with Movavi Video Editor Plus has been very positive. It provides a smooth and user-friendly editing environment, making it easy to create high-quality videos even without advanced editing knowledge. The drag-and-drop interface, built-in effects, and quick export options help save time and improve productivity. While it may lack some advanced features for professional editing, it is an excellent choice for beginners and intermediate users who want efficient and reliable video editing software. Pros What I like most about Movavi Video Editor Plus is its simplicity combined with powerful features—it allows me to create professional-looking videos quickly without needing advanced editing skills. Cons What I liked least about Movavi Video Editor Plus is its limitation in advanced editing features and the restrictions in the free version, which can make it less suitable for more professional or complex projects.

For YouTube and Twitch, I utilize it to quickly and captivatingly combine my live gameplay highlights, music reviews, and cultural comments. I can quickly create dynamic text overlays, match transitions with my music, trim clips to the rhythm, and drop clips in thanks to the user-friendly UI.

After recording, even after closing the app, my keyboard was unusable. It typed random stuff. Pros Nice UI, but really not useable in my case so I can't give much positive feedback here. Test it first on your system before buying the yearly subscription. Cons Can't use it on my mac without technical issues with my keyboard. After recording, even after closing the app, my keyboard was unusable. It typed random stuff. Review Source SW Severine W. developper Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Movavi Video Editor" December 10, 2024 5.0 Good experience for what I needed so far. Thanks ! Pros I liked the simplicity of usage : I am used to video editing software like première pro from adobe for instance, and with movavi I could find the same edition principles without event a need to read the documentation or to watch tutorials ! Cons Missing some advanced filter option that I am used to in première pro, like advanced video transition, opacity masks, or audio filtering options. I think that movavi is more for basic video edition than advanced clip making Switched from [Adobe Premiere Pro](https://www.capterra.com/p/233456/Adobe-Premiere-Pro/) première pro is way too expensive. I had it in my previous job, payed by the company and now I changed job but still want to make some video edition for my personnal use Review Source DT Daryl T. Owner Media Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Everything I Need is RIGHT HERE!" May 25, 2024 5.0 I have been 99% pleased with Movavi! I've even spoken about Movavi with other Content Creators. I've definitely shown many people the light. I love Movavi! Pros How precisely and professionally I am able to edit, cut, perfect, and produce content. I am constantly complimented on how professional my content looks. Cons The export process is a bit disappointing. I want to be able to export my video files in the format compatible with Instagram. I am only able to export it under ONE video option and I have to use an external video converter to get it to the format I need it to be. It adds so much time to my productions. Reason for choosing Movavi Video Editor Plus The available transitions, effects, overlays, and the professionalism of my productions. Switched from [Adobe Premiere Rush](https://www.capterra.com/p/246662/Adobe-Premiere-Rush/)[Filmora](https://www.capterra.com/p/186540/Filmora/) I did not like the lack of available filters, transitions, and visual effects with the other products. The other apps were also very slow to operate. Review Source ЕМ Емил М. Public Relationes Architecture & Planning Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "I love this program." June 3, 2025 5.0 I got used to working in the app very quickly. It makes me feel confident in my abilities and that any project is possible with it. Pros What I like most is that it is easy to use and I can mix video and picture. Everything is very fast and it is very intuitive. Cons Of course, it is paid and I can't use the free version. Money is a factor these days and the organizers of the program can think of lower prices for Eastern Europe. And the last thing I don't like is that there is no Bulgarian translation of the program.

Visual Designer Arts and Crafts Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Saves time." March 21, 2025 5.0 It literally saves time. It adds all the subtitles with one click and I only have to make a few edits. That's all. Pros I liked that it automatically recognized the language thanks to its artificial intelligence support. I liked most that it recognized proper names and brands and wrote them in capital letters. Cons Sometimes subtitle changes do not apply to all subtitles at once. Review Source LL Leroy L. Hobby Design Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Movavi Video Editor" January 25, 2025 5.0 Having a user-friendly design, the Movavi Video Editor is a great software not only for professionals, but also for beginners having the most basic possible batch of features. This application does not look very complex and allows the user to start editing effectively. Pros Movavi Video Editor is a very decent video editing application for anybody in need of a simple editing software that is compatible with the majority of basic editing techniques. If you are planning to create videos for Youtube, social media, or home videos, Movavi has got you covered. It lacks the sophistication of pro-level editors, but for average and semi-pro editors, it is superb. Cons The presence of the large watermark on your video is a major turn-off for the Movavi free trial edition as you attempt to learn more about its usefulness. In cases where you want to check software first, it is quite normal to see watermarks. You really won't be able to save any video without the watermark unless you buy the full version. You had better invest in a licensed version if you are eager to restore your efforts.:) Review Source JL Julie L. Developper Program Development Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Movavi Video Editor" March 8, 2025 5.0 Overall, it's a great tool for quick and easy video editing.

Cons The free version adds watermarks on exports. Review Source DS Daniel S. Chairman Sports Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Movavi Video Editor (SL)" December 23, 2024 5.0 Movavi was my first choice, and i Had a good time editing the 80th-Birthday-Video from the Camcorder of angood friend. There was No Problem with the import of the Media. I could easy Mix the Videos, with the Photos, add captions and Background Music. There was No Need for any help-document. Everything could be Managed with Standard IT+ knowledge in my 40ies. Pros Easy usage, multiple Video/Audio/Title Tracks, easy cutting and fading Cons The Sound editing is Not perfect (i did Not manage to move the Special Part of Sounds/Music to the right Spot), so i Had to Work with Copy/Paste! Review Source CB CARRIE B. Founder Consumer Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Sneaky Business and Sales Tactics" October 29, 2024 1.0 Poor. I had difficulty seeing the audio track and the options which seem very limited on the free trial version. Pros The software was clunky and difficult to use. There were few options, and it was visually not intuitive. Having used other editing software that was simple and intuitive, I was very disappointed. Additionally, I was trying the software out to see if I wanted to use it long term. The free version's download page did not openly note that one cannot use it in the free version to edit a video longer than 60 seconds, so now they refuse to give me access to my 2hour video without paying for a different version. This should have been on the download page or as part of the notice when downloading. Instead, I have wasted hours of time and they will not release the video I have worked on. This is poor business and a sneaky sales tactic. Cons Not intuitive and sneaky sales tactic. If they want happy customers, perhaps being upfront would be a good start. Switched from [VideoPad](https://www.capterra.com/p/122390/VideoPad/) I saw a YouTube that noted Movavi was great. Review Source MD Manuela D.

Simple and easy to use tool. Pros Simple to use but complete interface, allowing for mid to advanced video editing and control of several layers and effects. Cons Nothing particular as a con, other than having a hardcoded address for each project, meaning that if the source address is moved it can lead to errors on opening the project.

Most of the PRO- features can be accessed easily Pros Its User friendly. Most of the features are quickly accessible. In video labeling , sound effects & animations can be done in few steps. Even though I am a beginner , I was able to make my 5min length video editing in 2-3 mins. Though I am a health worker by profession , editing seemed very easy.

The intuitive interface made it a breeze to navigate, and I loved the filters and effects that added a professional touch.
