Overall Satisfaction with Lightworks
Lightworks has helped us to generate an increasing number of videos for social media posts. It provides a lot of flexibility with editing, adding captions, and video effects to help us customize and tailor each post. It also allowed us to do all of this without the large expense associated with many other video editing tools.
- Lots of flexibility
- Easy to learn as a new user
- Online help pages make it easy to find answers to questions
- I have had it crash on me while using; thought content is saved
- The user interface could be updated/modernized
- Hot-keys commands are not always intuitive
- Flexibility (adding captions, transitions, etc.)
- It doens't add a watermark on the free version when exporting in a smaller size
- Doesn't require a lot of time to learn
- It has helped us create more video content that we had not been able to do in the past
- Given that we can use the free version in almost every situation, there has been no direct cost to use
iMovie is a great tool for Mac users and provides a lot of simple drag/drop elements with video editing. However, it is incredibly restrictive if you want to customize your video. With Lightworks, I can easily add text on a screen, captions, transitions, change the framerate and more. No matter the video project, I have been able to find a solution using Lightworks.
