Overall Satisfaction with Adobe Premiere Pro

I use Adobe Premiere Pro to create marketing material content for social media purposes. This software allows me to create more dynamic content for marketing purposes that gets better rates of interaction from viewers and allows me to show video content as opposed to only static images. Adobe Premiere Pro gives me greater control over my video content as opposed to other editing software. This is the software professionals use, but it's not impossible to use as a casual user!

Pros

  • Allows for video and sound mixing
  • Create any kind of motion or transition
  • Allows for full control over the final deliverable

Cons

  • The software interface can be really quite overwhelming visually
  • It can be difficult to understand where to find tools and they are not very user-friendly if you are trying to learn the software without an introduction, but can be easy to use once you know what you are doing
  • It can be difficult to switch between views
  • Adobe Premiere Pro helps us get better interaction with our marketing materials on social media as a B2B company
  • Adobe Premiere Pro can be time consuming to learn and use (if you are not well-versed or use it regularly to stay savvy) and can cause a larger investment of time and therefore pay to your employee using the software.
I give Adobe Premiere Pro an 8 instead of a 10 for usability because while it is the ultimate pinnacle of editing software and can do anything you may want to do, it is time consuming to learn how to use and is not something you can download and within a few hours have mastered the basics of.
I have also used Adobe Premiere Rush (a less capable but more streamlined and easier to use version of Adobe Premiere Pro) and Canva to produce video content. Ultimately I will choose to use Adobe Premiere Pro every time. I always end up wanting to do something in Rush that I cannot and switch to Adobe Premiere Pro, and Canva just frustrates me with its extreme limitations.

There really is no scenario in which Adobe Premiere Pro is not suitable. It is the pinnacle of video editing software, to the point that true million dollar projects are produced using Adobe Premiere Pro. That being said, it could be overkill if you need a very small, lightly edited video created. You certainly could still use Adobe Premiere Pro, but it wouldn't be worth learning how to use Adobe Premiere Pro solely for something that could be edited in free software within five minutes. Otherwise, Adobe Premiere Pro is suitable for literally any video project.

Using Adobe Premiere Pro

3 - We use Adobe Premiere Pro to create marketing materials for our professional services business. These are usually short videos that highlight a project or event and then we use the videos on our social media or website. These videos incorporate photos, raw footage, graphics, and sound. We don't create these on a super regular basis, but we need them from time to time.
3 - Adobe Premiere Pro can be intimidating to use because it is not super intuitive or user friendly. It's fine once you've figured it out and learned how to use it and it works well, but it's always a slow program for people to learn. Our users need to already understand the basics of videography, sound, and a little bit of how to use related Adobe products.

  • Website
  • Project Promotion
  • For hiring/recruitment
There is not better program for your needs than Adobe Premiere Pro. It doesn't matter if it can be hard to learn because this product is the top of the line and you will not find a better video editing program. This is what the professionals use. It is worth the learning curve.
