EDIUS Pro vs. PowerDirector

EDIUS is well suited for: -News production -Multi-camera productions -Documentaries -General purpose television productions -Corporate videos, YouTube videos etc. EDIUS is less appropriate for: -Cinematography -Special Effects -Commercials production

Definitely suited for a business that has a presence on the internet. It is a relatively easy program to use and will make your video quality look professional. It doesn't matter what business you are into, if video is something that will take your company to another level than this is a good program to get the job done.

• It's the perfect editing software for news programs with easy voice overs and fast editing and rendering time.
• Very light program runs almost on any PC! It can handle almost all today's available codecs and video formats along with any kind of graphics, sounds, and other media.
• A real multimedia editor!
• Fastest software camera stabilization I have seen so far with excellent results!
• Fastest and most convenient multi-camera production editing ever!

• Quick and easy video and audio editing.
• Great transition options.

• 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.

• The advertisements to upgrade need to go. I understand you guys gotta make money but I already paid for the product I have and I don't need a popup every time I open the program telling me there is an upgrade available for $xx.99.
• Better documentation on how to use certain plugins.
• DirectorZone is pointless.

Again, I haven't tried a whole lot of different video editing software over the years, but of the ones I tried, PowerDirector seemed to be the right fit for me and the team I worked with. It helped solve the need for tutorial videos and it allowed us to create a bunch of videos in a very small time frame. I recommend it especially for people without a lot of video editing experience

I choose PD because it is user-friendly and easy to learn.

• It's value for money index is excellent.
• We received back our investment more or less after couple of weeks of using that internally and stopped outsourcing editing.

• Fast turn around on editing.
