Overall Satisfaction with DaVinci Resolve

DaVinci Resolve is main problem solver in video related quarries , I do video editing and color grading in this this is a one stop solution for my video making process I do transcoding, video editing and finally color grading in this. Includes editing promotional content, educational videos, and corporate communications. Specifically, it covers media management (transcoding/proxies), non-linear editing, motion graphics/VFX (Fusion), professional audio mixing (Fairlight), and industry-leading color correction.

Pros

  • Color grading
  • video editing
  • Transcoding
  • mastering

Cons

  • AI features
  • Fusion for motion graphic
  • cost saving
  • workflow
  • collaboration
  • hardware demand
  • learning issue
I give it 9 out of 10 because I have been using Resolve since 2013 and am happy to see its evolution over the years. The Blackmagic team has really done a great job to make it better on a year-on-year basis. I like its workflow, that it has all a video editor needs, like transcoding, supporting a wide range of codes, video editing capabilities, a professional color grading suite, and improved Fusion and Fairlight, and in the end its export and mastering capability i can export pretty much every formate from it.
I like Resolve more because it has all-in-one capability. Like in Adobe Premiere, I need to use Media Encoder for transcoding and export and After Effects for motion graphics, but Resolve has all-in-one software. It's the same with Final Cut Pro; they provide single functionality, but DaVinci Resolve has it all, and also the cost is also lower compared to the others, so it's easy to afford.

Do you think DaVinci Resolve delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Yes

Yes

Did implementation of DaVinci Resolve go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy DaVinci Resolve again?

Yes

DaVinci Resolve is a one-stop solution for video post-production for me; it has all the functionality that needs to be done in video editing and mastering. I am pretty much impressed by how they are evolving this day by day.
But when it comes to motion graphics, I use After Effects and Adobe suites because of their wide range of toolsets, like Illustrator, Photoshop, and After Effects. DaVinci also has Fusion, but I feel a little uncomfortable to using it .
