Overall Satisfaction with Lightworks

We use Lightworks at our company a lot, especially when we have many videos that need to be done in a short period of time, and we have a group of 3 techs that specialize in Lightworks and always get the job done fast due to the easy and accessible editing tools.
  • Drag and drop all videos easily.
  • Easy to split videos and strip.
  • You can work with multiple sequences.
  • More accessible help screen.
  • A better audio mixer and equalizer.
  • Faster editing so more work.
  • Paid for itself the first week.
Adobe is a great tool that is very competitive and I still use it depending on what PC I have on hand and how fast the job needs to get done but I selected Lightwork because I think that it is less complicated to browse and was able to learn the shortcuts fast, making my time more productive.

Yes

Would you buy Lightworks again?

Yes

It's best for editors that are beginning their career due to the easy way to learn this. However, you have to buy the license to be able to use and learn all of these great features. I can't seem to find scenarios where it would not be appropriate, this is an excellent, easy tool to work with.
