Overall Satisfaction with VEGAS Pro
This is a "Swiss Army Knife" of video editing programs with the capability to inexpensively add in Blu-Ray mastering as well as mix a live audio and video mix of media. Typically, we use it for producing web media for YouTube, Facebook and our websites for ourselves and customers as well as for educational purposes. We need something that will accept any format of media and turn it into something that can be published anywhere.
- YouTube/Facebook videos from any source material including graphics.
- Produce the highest quality videos for broadcast up to 4K resolution.
- Creating video of any size for HTML output when imported into Articulate Storyline.
- VEGAS Pro does not accept or import SVG graphics which is sad.
- At times VEGAS Pro does not work well with the add-ons sold with it.
- Despite its ease of use, some Hollywood-style effects are a real challenge.
- For web design, creating spiffy video which integrates with a site!
- This software has paid for itself over and over since I started using it in 2003.
- Every year or so they upgrade it and so I upgrade every five or so years.
First of all, VEGAS Pro is absolutely and by far easier to use with no doubts about it. I didn't need one class to start using VEGAS Pro while these other options require far more training and research. It's a Windows-based program first and so, unlike these other choices, uses typical Windows conventions with lots of right-click options and the kind of simplicity you would see in a Microsoft product.
