VEGAS Pro
Chose VEGAS Pro
Due to [what I believe to be] a decline in software stability and lack of customer support I will be using Adobe Creative Cloud moving forward. I urge others to look at other options and companies that invest in customer support.
Chose VEGAS Pro
Not as many options, but does what I need it to at a fraction of the cost and a fraction of the complexity
Chose VEGAS Pro
VEGAS Pro beats them all due to simplicity and overall usefulness. It is a true nonlinear editor and not just one with add-ons to protect the faults and weaknesses of the product. VEGAS Pro gets it done and takes your creativity to a higher level. The rest just copy each other …
Chose VEGAS Pro
I had Adobe Premiere but I don't like having to subscribe. VEGAS Pro is a one-time purchase which was a better economical and financial decision for me. My friends that are editors didn't like when Apple changed Final Cut so I did not elect to use it when I had the chance to. …
Chose VEGAS Pro
When we used Adobe Premiere Pro, we found that it was much more limited in terms of the types of source formats it would accept. It also had more trouble mixing and matching different formats on the same timeline. It also crashed more frequently that we liked. Other products …
Chose VEGAS Pro
Vegas Pro is much easier than Adobe Premiere and system requirements of Adobe Premiere are higher than Vegas Pro. Also, the render speed of Vegas Pro is higher than Adobe Premiere. The learning curve of Adobe premiere is very long.
Chose VEGAS Pro
First of all, VEGAS Pro is absolutely and by far easier to use with no doubts about it. I didn't need one class to start using VEGAS Pro while these other options require far more training and research. It's a Windows-based program first and so, unlike these other choices, uses …
Chose VEGAS Pro
We love Sound Forge and Acid. They are sister programs that integrate well into the Magixx/Vegas family. Seamless transitions among products.

Premiere was difficult to master and not as stable as Vegas Pro.
Chose VEGAS Pro
  • VEGAS Pro has more features than iMovie but is nowhere near as complex (or robust, for better or worse) as Adobe Premiere Pro. It is also not as robust as the Avid video editing suite, including Avid Media Composer. However, I do not have much familiarity with that product line …
Chose VEGAS Pro
VEGAS Pro is easier to use than any other video software I have experienced. The end result does not look any different than something made in another (likely more expensive) software. The encoding and export options make for high-quality outputs that are simple to share with …

Many of my friends from other companies have asked me for recommendations for some video editing software, and my recommendation has always been VEGAS Pro. Currently, there are many platforms that offer video editing with basic functions but that help to have an editing a unprofessional and without complexity of use, however, VEGAS Pro despite being a difficult software to use, has much more professional functions than any other platform today, its ability to add motion trackers, make image edits, make Simultaneous audio edits is awesome. The only problem that is really noticeable to me and my colleagues who use VEGAS Pro in my work area, is the rendering issue, there are many programs with less time rendering, however, the reason why we still consider that VEGAS Pro is the best option, it is because it offers much more professional editing functions, of better quality. Rendering is an issue that can be fixed by having a computer with extremely good characteristics, so that you can render the video in less time and that it does not affect the consumption of the RAM card, but in general, rendering is a problem for a large number of users. I recommend VEGAS Pro for those who own computers with features suitable for long-term rendering, with a good video card that supports the rendering quality.

Pros

  • It is easy to learn with patience.
  • They are constantly upgrading the platform to keep up with higher end NLE systems.
  • It functions (to me) better when dual monitors are used, but a single screen is good if you don't mind moving the timeline functionality around.

  • I'd love to see more professional titling built into the next version.
  • Also would like to see more modern transitions.
  • Would love to see an integration of an option to render video to YouTube's current video codec.

The best and easiest editor I have ever used. I have used everything as an Emmy-Award-winning news journalist, and this program has always done what I needed it to do. Nothing less than the best out there and can get the job done.

Because Vegas Pro is widely used software, the user interface is similar to smartphone editing tools. That is why learning time is very short in Vegas Pro. Whenever you have a question YouTube is your best support assistant. You don't need to contact anyone.
