Likelihood to Recommend I have actually recommended Adobe Premiere Pro to many people looking to get into the editing field. It is perfect for any type of video creation. It would not be very useful for someone who isn't serious about video editing and wants to just use something to cut out the beginning or ends of clips. It's too advanced for that and [maybe] confusing for someone not educated in the field.
Read full review Animaker is best suited for short projects that are well-defined. We have found it very useful for developing our explainer videos, concept illustrations for pitching new product functions or iterations, and also for creating content quickly and easily. For an illustration of bigger and more complex projects, they might be less adequate and more difficult to execute seamlessly.

Read full review Cons Export times: I do a massive amount of exports with intensive graphics. They often need to be done quickly. If export times could be reduced by 90%, my life would improve drastically. Importing errors: Certain video formats are not compatible, such as specific types of MP4s and MKV files. Greater flexibility would be wonderful. End the subscription model. I'd gladly pay one flat fee once and be done with it.

Add more scene templates that feature group interactions of multiple customizable characters Direct voice-over enhancements when developing projects Read full review Likelihood to Renew Adobe Premiere Pro saves time and cost and it does a great job. When you see the output you know that you have made the right investment in the right application. Adobe does not require a lot of support to work good. There are thousands of videos in case you are looking for a particular thing to do during your work on your videos therefore it is well supported.

Read full review Support Rating It is a professional team that provides customer service at any time. I think that the team does not rest until they find a solution to your problem. I think this makes this company great because when a company offers a good service, and they treat you well, the customer always returns satisfied.

Read full review Alternatives Considered DaVinci Resolve is a powerful editing and color-grading application, and the base version is free. However, I've found that with the Lumetri Color panel in Premiere, I really have no need for Resolve as it meets all of my needs. Additionally, I've found Resolve to be lacking in support for the broad range of file types that Premiere handles gracefully.

Read full review Return on Investment Speed of workflow has increased- specially when coupled with keyboard shortcuts Jobs have had a faster turnover rate which makes clients happy. I have two Adobe accounts, one for work and one for personal use. Both of these accounts are paying for themselves through the work I can provide with the use of Premiere. Read full review Ever since we switched from using only actual demo videos to adding animated explainers, our conversion rates have increased significantly. Our productivity when creating presentations and materials for client engagement has more than tripled since we started using Animaker. We can go from storyboard to final output in 3 days or less. Previously, each output took at least 2 weeks to complete. Creating projects in Animaker is just way more fun. Team members no longer dread having to work on a new concept. And our outputs are a lot more engaging. Read full review ScreenShots
