    For any company that wants to use more video in their content and marketing overall, PlayPlay is your best bet. Anyone can make a video--no expertise required. Honestly, it's really fun to do, and you feel like a creative genius afterward! If you are making long-form videos or need something for a TV commercial, PlayPlay doesn't make sense. But you can absolutely take snippets from other video projects and break them into smaller videos. That's what we love to do. Also, they just launched a podcast tool to help podcasters use video to promote their episodes.

    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.

    • Product is very easy to use; I got a little stuck on changing font colors with text
    • Automatic subtitling is amazing, but you do need to adjust the words per screen
