Overall Satisfaction with Final Cut Pro X

We are a training company and recording and produce videos for our online learning platform as well as videos for youtube, social media, events and more. I use Final Cut Pro X to do all of my video editings. It allows me to edit and cut video footage to produce great content.
  • Great layout for editing. Easy to access all the tools without switching screens.
  • Has a nice variety of built in transitions.
  • Easy to add audio and video clips.
  • Would be nice to have more built in exporting options for those of use who don't know how to compress videos well.
  • More built in effects would be a plus.
  • I always struggle with adding text but it could just be me.
  • Ease of use.
  • Video editing options and tools.
  • Transitions.
  • Helps us edit videos in house in a timely manner.
  • Allows us to produce training videos.
  • Allows us to make edits to existing and or previous videos.
I have used both Final Cut Pro X and iMovie and Final Cut Pro just seems to be my go-to. Final Cut Pro X just seems to have more tools, features, functionality, and more. It also integrates with Compressor which helps when reducing file sizes. There seems to be more extras that other users have created that you can purchase and use in your video editing. I'm not so sure that exists with iMovie.

Final Cut Pro [X] is great for any video editing and even making slideshows with images. While it has many advanced features, I use it for very basic editing and I find it easy to use. It may be overkill for some but I think it's nice to have extras in case you decide to use them later down the road. As long as you're using it for what's it's intended for, I can't think of any reasons why you wouldn't use it.
