The best scenarios for using Final Cut Pro are any and every scenario where you want to have the greatest control over your editorial needs without the complexity or useless slop that other platforms throw in to seemingly look stronger. Final Cut Pro keeps the editorial experience clean, uncluttered and exactly what it should be - intuitive. That's one word we often come back to because it's one of those things where you really shouldn't have to 'think' about where you can find the right tool to use for your edits... it should be 'right there' where you would think it should be - and in Final Cut Pro, that's almost always where we find it.

Implementing Final Cut Pro into the organization was a smooth transition from what we didn't had. We felt we went from zero to hero with this software, due to all the great features that we learned. We took some time in training staff on how to use the software but at the end, this was very useful and important.

Premiere and Final Cut are very similar is usage. Final Cut has less crashing and lag, but does not work well with Adobe products. You'd basically have to use all different softwares to use it best. Davinci is a different beast with a color grading portion that is unmatched by any other product. Although DaVinci is non-linear editing, so you essentially have to unlearn everything you know from Final Cut and Premiere.
