Likelihood to Recommend	Avid Technology I've cut my own video content on Media Composer, and also worked on a network television show with it - it performed excellently in both situations. The bins are a great way to find and store content and the timeline is easy to understand. In my experience, crashes were few and far between (although they're a part of the job no matter what DAW you're using). Incentivized Rob Gokee Composer Read full review

Return on Investment	Avid Technology It's saved time by being easy to learn (well, easy to start.
