Filmora is best for anyone who wants a medium-advanced video editing software but is not wanting to spend the time and money required to learn advanced editing software like Adobe Premier Pro. You can start making great looking videos in just a few hours with Filmora. Filmora is also a great option for professional video editors who want a lighter, faster and more fun program for editing smaller projects like videos for social media and video ads[.]

  • Edits videos very well.
  • Records the screen of your computer perfectly. This is great if you are an architect because you can show on a video how you make your renderings and plans with Autocad, chief architect premier, Adobe photoshop or even revit.
  • You can cut videos perfectly and add music to them easily.
  • You can use several predesigned themes to create any video you desire.
  • You can add as much text as you want to your videos
  • There are several filters you can use to improve the images on the recordings.

Cons
Grass Valley
  • I would like to see some improvement with keys effects, and specifically Chroma Keys and Masks.
  • Adjustment layers like Adobe Premiere would be a nice feature too.
  • EDIUS of course has adjustment layers as filters, but it would be most convenient to have separate adjustment layers on the timeline.

  • Filmora needs to improve the motion tracking feature.
  • Filmora needs to improve the green screen feature to make smoother removing of background.
  • Filmora needs to improve the editing feature that can allow user to manipulate more the texts, shapes and other elements.

Filmora is a good software because that software is where I began to learn video editing. Because of its user-friendly interface and ready-to-use features, I can create professional videos. Somehow, when you're trying to upgrade your skills in editing. Some extra-features are not yet existing in the software. Overall, it's still good because it's not too expensive and very reliable in simple to intermediate type of video editing.

I'm giving this a ten because I haven't needed the support in any way, however, I've gotten correspondence from them letting me know that they are available if needed. I've seen reviews saying the support is lacking but those were years ago. I'm assuming they've figured everything out by now.

Filmora is easy enough to use after you get started. There are other programs with more functions but that depends on what you need it for. Just for cutting and small editing Filmora is really great and useful. Movavi has more functions, or at least it felt like it but therefore is more complicated to use.
