My experience using this software daily, makes me more inspired to do what many producers seek in other editing softwares. With knowledge and creativity, I have a powerful tool. Vegas Pro can do uncountable things. It's native, and it's still one of the best. I just love it!!! #### Cons Some versions have some kind of Bugs. Maybe it's a question of my graphic plates, but sometimes it just crashes. Beside this, I think it's all TOP. --- ### Vegas beats Adobe hands down - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: John D. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Government Administration - Company size: 5001-10000 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: April 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Vegas Pro is a powerful, intuitive, fully functional video editing suite that everyone from beginners to advanced users love. I was skeptical at first, but tried it out and haven't looked back. So much better than Adobe Premiere! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros It is so easy, simple, and highly intuitive to use. I was up and working in under 30 minutes, and didn't need to Google much of anything to figure stuff out. #### Cons It's a shame more people and businesses don't use it to make it more mainstream. #### Reasons for switching to VEGAS Pro Vegas is so much simpler and easier to use, yet more powerful --- ### VEGAS PRO REVIEW - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: JOHN M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Media Production - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered My overall experience with Vegas pro has been progressive. As my main video editing software, every time I learn something new my workflow becomes easier and my videos improve. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 2/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros My most favorite features are ease of importing media files, cutting and joining video clips which is a straight forward process and the many short-cuts which made everything simpler once I mastered them. #### Cons What I dislike most about Vegas pro is the complexity of key framing whereby animating x,y and rotations motions simultaneously will took time grasping. Another issue that I face with Vegas pro is the huge amount of processing power it consumes making it very difficult to run multiple software at the same time --- ### Best video editing software so far - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Rayhanali A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. So far this is the best video editing software in my opinion. This is not too simple of which there is a very limited feature available, but not too complex either, so it is a sweet spot also for first-time user. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Flexible use, user-friendly interface, great community, huge library and features to choose from. #### Cons Some features use really technical terms, which are a bit hard to understand for common people at first. #### Reasons for switching to VEGAS Pro This software is much more easier to much, but also includes more features. --- ### VEGAS Pro your ultimate software for creating stunning videos! - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Stefano S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: March 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The multicamera mode is really great! If you have a video taken from many point of view, you can synch them easly and then you can move from a camera to another really easly as Vegas can merge them into a unique timeline and you can switch from a view to another with just one click. #### Cons This software is really stunning, but if I have to talk about a least then it could be that there are not so many rendering filters and maybe the text effects could be uograded to a more easy way to use them. Also it could be useful a inline help that suggests and remember you which are the shortcuts to use the variuos features. #### Reasons for switching to VEGAS Pro I was seraching for a more professional software. --- ### Vegas Pro Is The Underrated NLE King - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Marcos C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Entertainment - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I've been using Vegas Pro for about 10 years. I've been tempted by the competition, and indeed have incorporated things like Filmora for more casual edits and easier titling. But if I need to do a complex edit, like the one I did for my award-winning short film, I go to Vegas Pro. It's reliable, stable, feature-rich and affordable. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Vegas sits on a very sweet spot: it's a single-purchase license (versus things like Premiere which are only available through subscriptions), but it's not too much more expensive than more enthusiast offerings such as Filmora. For that one-time payment, you get a lifetime license to one of the most established non-linear editors in the business. There's a wealth of support and information online (which sets it apart from newcomers) and the business model is much more small-business-friendly than the Adobe subscription model. #### Cons Magix acquired Vegas from Sony a few years back but not much has changed. I really wish there were better built-in titles, for example. Better support for hardware acceleration of the timeline and edit process. The titling issue in particular usually means I have to edit my footage further somewhere else. But to be honest, the NLE workflow is good enough that I don't mind the extra steps for titling. #### Reasons for choosing VEGAS Pro The single-license purchase model made VEGAS Pro a no-brainer when choosing it over Premiere. --- ### Vegas pro is good for the most part - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Ben S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Environmental Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Overall it is a good program. I continue to use it with caution to save after each section is edited. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros It is an easy platform to use. It does not take long to learn and has several easy tricks and functions. Clipping and splicing are super easy and natural. You can always find how to learn new functions on YouTube. #### Cons Vegas does have an issue with rendering. Rendering takes a while on a standard computer and with over 15 minutes per video, it will crash quite often. 99% of the time for me it will always crash right as I select Render. You have to save often to avoid loss, and always save just prior to rendering. #### Reasons for choosing VEGAS Pro I had experience with Vegas 13 and wouldn't have to learn a new program, time is of the essence. #### Reasons for switching to VEGAS Pro To get a more user friendly interface. --- ### Still one of the best video editing tool for single camera projects - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Geoffrey J. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I'm very happy with the software. Sure, there is a bit of a learning curve but once you master the shortcuts and the logic... Editing becomes super fast, and you can automate most actions through scripts or plugins. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros First : It's a highly flexible tool for whom you can code your own scripts to automate actions. Second : The real time preview is a real time saver. Third : It's affordable, and upgrades to get the lastest version are cheap. And most importantly : It doesn't slow down your computer or crashes as much as it's direct competitor. So that you can render your project while still working (in your browser for instance) on something else less computer intensive. #### Cons The out of the box "picture in picture" feature was overly complicated without a plugin. The multicam was cumbersome. Not sure if they improved it in their latest upgrade to something faster to produce and easier to edit like in Final Cut Pro X. #### Reasons for choosing VEGAS Pro Computer requirements were too demanding. Everything seemed very slow and eventually crashed the app (or the computer). The opposite of what I was trying to achieve. #### Reasons for switching to VEGAS Pro Workflow was too time consuming. Access to a limited feature set was limiting our creativity as well. --- ### Simple, Fast, but also Powerful - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Matt S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Media Production - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: January 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I like this software and I can see the effort they put into this video editor. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The text-to-speech (t2s) function...!! In the past, I need to record my own voice for the video. But with Vegas Pro t2s function, it is much quicker and faster for me to complete my tasks.Also, it can now connect to those libraries that VEGAS Pro provides. This save me much time from going to the web and grab those royalty-free images or clips. #### Cons Well, the library from VEGAS Pro is good enough for general use. However, when it compares to other free library (such as PEXELS or Pixarbay), you will notice there is a gap between them. #### Reasons for choosing VEGAS Pro I think VEGAS Pro's UI is generall better. And I also find the rendering speed is quite fast. #### Reasons for switching to VEGAS Pro I use VEGAS Pro for the Text-to-Speech function. But I do use Filmora from time to time, too. --- ### Sony Vegas Pro 16 is a complex, advanced video editing program - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Artur N. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Retail - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. In our work in marketing, we produce a large number of video materials. Thanks to Vegas Pro, work is easier and faster, and therefore videos are cheaper. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros A very extensive and at the same time intuitive program, the great advantages of which are: 360 video support, automatically adjusting subtitles, a large number of various types of transitions and effects. Works with video materials in all basic formats (DV, AVCHD, HDV, SD / HD-SDI, HEVC, ProRes). #### Cons The biggest disadvantage of Vegas Pro is the high price and the need to spend time learning the program. #### Reasons for switching to VEGAS Pro Vegas Pro is a little easier for me to use than DaVinci Resolve. --- Showing 1 - 10 of 156 Reviews [See All Reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/video-editing/vegas-pro-profile/reviews/) ## VEGAS Pro Popular Comparisons [Movavi Video Editor Plus vs VEGAS Pro](https://www.softwareadvice.com/video-making/movavi-video-editor-plus-profile/vs/vegas-pro/)[Vizard vs VEGAS Pro](https://www.softwareadvice.com/compare/315106-vegas-pro/vs/432576-Vizard/)[Adobe Premiere Pro vs VEGAS Pro](https://www.softwareadvice.com/video-editing/adobe-premiere-pro-profile/vs/vegas-pro/)[OBS Studio vs VEGAS Pro](https://www.softwareadvice.com/video-editing/obs-studio-profile/vs/vegas-pro/)[Filmora vs VEGAS Pro](https://www.softwareadvice.com/video-making/filmora-profile/vs/vegas-pro/)[AVS Video Editor vs VEGAS Pro](https://www.softwareadvice.com/video-making/avs-video-editor-profile/vs/vegas-pro/)[KineMaster vs VEGAS Pro](https://www.softwareadvice.com/video-making/kinemaster-profile/vs/vegas-pro/)[VideoPad vs VEGAS Pro](https://www.softwareadvice.com/video-editing/vegas-pro-profile/vs/videopad/) [Compare All Alternatives](https://www.softwareadvice.com/video-editing/vegas-pro-profile/alternatives/) ## See what companies are saying about Software Advice
