| Considered Both Products |  Filmora  Prashant Chaudhari Strategic Brand & Marketing Consultant Chose Filmora Firstly, Adobe Premiere Pro's price is too high as comapared to Filmora's price. Secondly, Adobe Premiere Pro is not easy to get started. You need to invest a lot of time to learn it. It also reauires more powerful computer whereas Filmora's requirements are not that high. The …  Marvin Malinao Online Course Designer Chose Filmora You can purchase Filmora for only one-time payment, unlike those software that have monthly plans to pay for you to be able to use their softwares. So, if you're looking for affordable, reliable but good editing software. Filmora is the best!  Rocio Maria Macoritto Architect and Interior Designer Chose Filmora I like both Filmora and Adobe premiere pro but it is worth noting that Filmora has some advantages over Adobe Premier pro. It makes as professional looking videos as Adobe premier pro but faster and it is much easier to use and straightforward. Filmora has many video effects, …  Chris Malinger Photographer/Author Chose Filmora There is no comparison, except the price; you get what you pay for. Buy cheap crap and you get cheap crap. I think Filmora relies on the price of their product to seduce customers and then only offers a meager amount of product, which is actually very substandard.  Adnan Sohail Akhtar Freelancer Chose Filmora I truly do not utilize Adobe Premiere Professional and DaVinci Resolve. However, the time when I'm beginning to study to video edit for a faculty challenge. I used the trial of Adobe and DaVinci however I actually don't get the way to use them even after watching loads of …  Gary Shouldis Founder & CEO Chose Filmora Adobe Premiere Pro is the gold standard for video editing but it was overkill for our needs, which entails educational and advertising videos on Youtube and other social media platforms. The cost and learning curve to train staff made it unusable so we switched to Filmora …  Shivam Sharma Video Editor Chose Filmora DaVinci, despite having a paid version, has a totally free version that allows us to make a good number of edits to our video. Of course, we will have to know the environment to control all the parameters it includes and have a powerful computer. Among some of its advantages: …  Preston Bramley Engineering Executive Chose Filmora The only other one I have used was Movie Maker and this is much better.  Daniel Städeli CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Chose Filmora Filmora is great for quick video edits and is quick to load and operate on lower-end PC. It lacks some of the more advanced features, but for some of the training and promotional videos, these are not needed. Filmora is easy to learn for any type of user, it doesn't require …  Bill Greganti Owner Chose Filmora I had very limited time to spend with a Premiere Pro trial and didn't manage to accomplish much in that time. It is a very capable and professional program but leaves an amateur editor pretty bewildered. It was easy enough to add media and trim out unnecessary footage, but …  Justin Germino Owner of DragonBlogger.com Chose Filmora Filmora has a better effects, transition option pack than other services and it is less than half the price of Camtasia. However, it is limited to 2 video tracks only where Avid One which is free allows 4 video tracks. Camtasia has better layered video on top of video … | iMovie  Amanda Khan Client Coordinator / IT Recruiter Chose iMovie Both Pinnacle and iMovie have similar features and capabilities. Most of the pros of iMovie has been posted in my review already but I would say the most positive aspect of iMovie is the fact that it is pre-installed on Apple products so you don't have to buy it, compared to …  François Lavallée president Chose iMovie iMovie produce professional quality video without the advanced but complicated features of professional softwares. OF course it has its limits compare to professional applications but the key here is when to use which application I use Final Cut frequently for larger video …  Tim Corbett General Manager Chose iMovie Not as easy to use as iMovie, and a similar cost structure. iMovie is easier for Apple users / and MS users, to both get proficient at. Movie Maker isn't bad, it just isn't as slick as iMovie. We actually used MovieMaker for a couple of years before migrating most users over to …  Matías Arévalo Larenas Socio y Director Comercial Chose iMovie IMovie is way easier to use and the result regarding social media content is almost the same (obviously depending on what do you want to do or expect).  Jonathan Teixeira Co-Founder Chose iMovie We use Adobe Premiere Pro, ScreenFlow, and iMovie. All for different things. If we're doing heavy editing, some effects, and overlays, we use Premiere. If we're recording a bunch of stuff all at once and doing a screen record, we record with ScreenFlow and edit while we're …  Kelly Reumann Lead Graphic Designer/ Marketing Chose iMovie iMovie has its place in the world of video editing software. It's definitely not the fanciest on the market but it is simple and easy to use and gets the job done and done well! There are times where I'll gravitate toward iMovie because I just don't need the extra features that …  Josh Rizzo Marketing Director Chose iMovie Promo.com and Shutterstock  Rene Agredano Advocacy Journalist and Co-Founder Chose iMovie I have an iPhone and recently bought a Macbook, so it was a natural choice. YouTube's movie creator was basic and not nearly as functional as iMovie (although I just wish the two worked together when creating movies). My Mac-based coworker says he used to use After Effects but … Chose iMovie iMovie is less expensive and a great alternate for the lay user.  Nicole Glover Technology Coordinator, Junior Kindergarten-Grade 12 Chose iMovie I haven't been able to find a comparable solution for what I need for video editing.  Cedric Haynes Videographer Chose iMovie iMovie is just as good and a lot cheaper than the competition. For my simple projects, it works well. For more advanced tasks, I outsource the work to better video editors and they usually work with Final Cut or Adobe Premiere. There’s no need for me to upgrade to anything else …  Ali Rauch Director of Marketing Chose iMovie This can be a bit overly complex to a novice and iMovie tends to be more beginner. We are not classically trained video people so that helps us do a better job with iMovie.  Dan Talvi Audio / Visual Coordinator Chose iMovie While iMovie worked for our organization for a while, we eventually moved to other software to create our video media content. iMovie was a great fit for entering into the realm of video content creation, but lacked the functionality provided by Final Cut Pro X and Adobe …  Jason Stein Wellness Business Coach Chose iMovie ScreenFlow and iMovie serve different purposes; however, I find iMovie easier to use for beginners.  Chris McCarthy Chief Creative Officer Chose iMovie We like Snagit, and still use it too. But IMovie is much more extensive an application and really let us grow our video content market.  Catheline Shin Director of Marketing Communications Chose iMovie Adobe Premier is complicated for the non film student. Can you get it to work well for you? Of course, but not without considerable learning.  Dave Becker Content Manager Chose iMovie iMovie is kind of like Premiere Pro Lite. You can create videos, easily, and export them, but you don't get the fine tuning and control that you get with Premiere Pro. That being said, Premiere Pro is much more expensive, and takes a much longer time to learn. It made more …  Jackie Bassett CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Chose iMovie iMovie has all the capability most video producers need. Great videos are made in the editing because the right content is already there. Adobe has a great product but their editing software doesn't have to be that intense, as when it is, it takes away from the great creative …  Kenneth Hess Senior Systems Analyst Chose iMovie iMovie compares very well with Premiere's and Final Cut's basic video and audio editing and for simple transitions.
