Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Premiere Pro
Adobe Premiere Pro is being used by select individuals in our organization for video editing as part of the Adobe Creative Cloud suite of software. I personally use it to edit training videos for my department. It has been my go-to program for video editing. It allows me to edit the videos we shoot at a fraction of the cost compared to outsourcing the work.
- Tight integration with other Adobe programs. I specifically use it together with Adobe Audition and After Effects. There is a seamless transition between the programs, which makes rapid editing possible.
- State of the art editing tools that have become the industry standard. Almost everything can be done within the program for above average edits.
- Storefront of video assets that are accessible within the program. Some are free, while others cost a small fee for use.
- Confusing interface for newcomers. Adobe attempts to ease users in with some video tutorials, but it is a pro-level application.
- Resource hog. Things can slow down, even with a powerful computer. Would like to see it optimized more.
- Additional export options. Premiere Pro has several export options, but there are some holes in their pre-configured list.
- Outsourcing video editing is very expensive. We have saved tens of thousands of dollars by doing some of our editing in-house. Especially for training materials that are internal facing.
- Once a user is familiar with Premiere Pro, time required to create a quality video is lowered.
- When combined with other Adobe Creative Cloud products, the quality of videos has increased.
