There was no scenario in which I found Colossyan less appropriate. I think it's well suited for many range of scenarios ; course building, learning / teaching, content creation etc. It's not about if its less appropriate or not but how you are using it.

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.

Cons
Colossyan
  • lack of realistic AI (vs what Synthesia offers). NEO 2 is the answer BUT limited
  • lack of mods (like animations for the texts / images)
  • Better voice mods too, too many robotic voices especially in different language than English. Need more adjustment we can do.

  • The tool palettes and toolbars are sometime difficult to decipher.
  • Some advanced features are not easy to find.
  • Floating descriptive menu whenever the mouse moves on the tool might help.
  • So many tools that a novice is easily lost.
  • A menu of all the keyboard shortcuts would be useful.

Usability
Colossyan
It has a lot of important tools like adding animations, previewing the video, etc. One area of improvement is to have a recovery system or a trash bin for videos. If I accidentally delete a video, it is not recoverable. If I delete scripts or scenes in a video, there is no way to go back and recover that old information

Fast shortcuts and editing tools make this an efficient piece of software for any skilled video editor. From newbies to experienced editors, FCPX can be used by almost anyone. It is easy to learn but takes time to master. Add Motion for even more effects and punchouts on your videos.

Most of the support I need, I find online. While Apple has a Q/A section on their site, it's not always beneficial in answering the questions that I have. With that said, they regularly update the software, and when updates lead to crashes, they usually have another update not far behind.

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.

Heygen and Synthesia both operated on the tickets or coins systems where you have to give a certain amount rather than hours which bottlenecks the creative side of what we try to accomplish with our business. Everything is straight forward and very modern and we appreciate that at our company. Simple is the best path for us

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.
