Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • So far so good, I'm impressed that the team keeps on improving the functionality, speed, and feel of this software.
  • The best feature I love about this software is using bitrate to reduce the size of the final exported video. It so helpful because some platform limit on the size of video to upload.
  • An indispensable application for video editing, because it has a very easy interface, and this is one of its best advantages.
  • Cons

  • The only bad thing I see in this program are the bugs it has, no matter how powerful your computer is, it can crash at any moment out of nowhere.
  • The worst of adobe premire pro is the animation tools.
  • It requires a lot from the machine and several times gets stuck.

  • Pros

  • I love how easy it is to edit audio using the auto transcription. It allows for other great features like filler word and word gap detection/removal.
  • I love using this for podcast editing because it's so easy. I can edit out filler words quickly, and I love having a transcript of the episode ready for some quick edits.
  • I have found Descript easy to use, fantastic that I can see the transcript and manipulate it to get the recording that I need. The drag and drop of video and music is so easy and brilliant.
  • Cons

  • Perhaps stupidly, i carried on using Descript. A month or so later a Composition (their name for a document within a project) I was working on just stopped working.
  • There have been two occasions in last few months where Descript just stopped working. I lost days' worth of work on broadcast critical projects.
  • Luckily, I have also noticed this in time but this could have very well have led to a video having missing parts because of this "accident.
