- 3 stars: 35 reviews (5%)
- 2 stars: 8 reviews (1%)
- 1 star: 15 reviews (2%)

### Most mentioned pros

- This is the best beginner friendly, video-editing software for the beginners with the ample features for good quality videos.
- It is a good value for money if you are looking for a simple text editor, but better pricing and support would make it better for small teams such as ours.
- It's everything you will need to get started, and they offer a very good deal on effects, packages and music subscriptions.

### Most mentioned cons

- Only to have wasted more time and money with experiences like this. If we don't share our experiences on platforms such as Capterra, the problems will not be addressed by the developer because they live in their own bubbles with their priorities first.
- Another red flag is their big watermark for unpaid version, you just know they are very selfish and dont want you to use them for free like other better app with smaller watermark.
- The program is still lacks some advanced features like motion tracking and color grading that are available in similar other programs.

I had been using other video editing software and was finding their expensive upgrades overwhelming.

Thanks for your love of Filmora to some degree. Regarding the output quality problem you are encountering after exporting, you may try the suggestions below to check if they help: --Adjust the output settings (e.g. resolution, bit rate) to the same as your original video before exporting --Go to "File--> Preferences-->Performance-->GPU Acceleration" disable the GPU option and then restart Filmora to have a try. --Uncheck the GPU accelerated video encoding option shown in the export window first and then go to export your video. --Update Filmora to the latest version. Back to the price, we'd like to say we are always doing our best to improve it and have added many new features to Filmora, such as Motion Tracking, Animation Keyframing, Curve speed, etc. These features can give users a better and happier experience, and we believe that our service and product offer more value for your money. :)

### A Review About Filmora in the perspective of a University College Student.

- Overall rating: 5/5
- Reviewer: Jaime Valeriano R.

- Industry: Education Management
- Company size: 10000+ employees
- Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years

Overall, Filmora is a good video editor especially to beginners as it has a very user friendly interface. Its features are not so complicated compared to others which makes this editor simple. But I think that is actually good because I believe in "less is more" motto. On the other hand, there are rarely that I experience lag but as I have said in this review that I do something to prevent this software to lag.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

What I like most about this software is that I am able to finish video editing tasks quickly since it is easy to use and unlike other video editing software that I've tried that there are so many processes before getting the results that you want; thus very useful especially when deadline for tasks are near. Filmora for me is as easy as drag and drop process. Also, they have their own Filmstocks that I can get different transitions, titles, elements, effects, etc. which I can use whenever that I am planning to have an overall theme for a video I am making. Also, another thing that I like about in Filmora is that they give discounts to verified students like up to 30% off.

#### Cons

Well, sometimes I encounter lags when using the software but only if there are a lot of videos, audios, effects, elements, transitions, etc. in the timeline. Like even if I also click the render preview button it is still super laggy. I am not sure whether the reason is because of the specs on my laptop, but my friends told me that it is high enough. The following is the specs of my laptop: Its processor is AMD Ryzen 5 4500U with Radeon Graphics, its ram is 8GB, its rom is 512GB SSD, its display memory is around 4GB, and its DirectX version is 12. Yet, I actually discover something where before the Filmora will lag because of many contents in the timeline; I will already export that video and will just create a new project where I will put exported video there and continue the process.

#### Reasons for switching to Filmora 

I actually not using Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve. But the time when I am starting to learn to video edit for a school project. I used the trial of Adobe and DaVinci but I really do not get how to use them even after watching a lot of youtube tutorials; and filmora is the only video editor that really works for me.

#### Reasons for switching to Filmora

#### Vendor response

Hi Daniel, Thanks for sharing your experience and we appreciate your recognition of its function and interface. Regarding the cons you mentioned, I understand your feeling, and it would make you painful if this software didn't perform in a normal way, like lags, crashes, etc. Wondershare values customers' user experience and we are always aiming at improving the performance of this software. However, these issues you encountered not only depend on the size, and length of the source video you are editing but also depends on the project settings. What's more, it will be affected by the performance of your computer as well. Based on this, here are some suggestions you may try to check if they help first: 1. Go "Wondershare Filmora-->Preferences-->Performance" to enable the GPU options first and then restart Filmora. 2. Delete other unnecessary files and close unnecessary apps during editing to improve more space for our Filmora. 3. Update Filmora to the latest version. If the issue persists, we invite you to report them with more details via the link https://www.wondershare.com/about/contact-us.html and we are more than happy to help!

- Value for money: 4/5
- Customer support: 4/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

The altering programming is genuinely instinctive and simple. The vast majority could bounce in without taking an instructional exercise yet emerge with an extraordinary video. The impacts and channels are great and incorporate a huge assortment of decisions. Transferring content and songs is additionally simple.

#### Cons

It can run slowly. I have also experienced an error a couple of times where once I publish the video, some of the content is not synced properly and I have to start all over with the publishing process. This is quite frustrating since it can take a while to process. It also seems to make the rest of my computer run slowly so it's difficult to multitask.

#### Pros

It only steals my money once a year or so.

#### Cons

This is how they continuously steal money from me: 1) "An updated version of Filmora is available, would you like to install it?" 2) I click yes. It installs. 3) I spend many hours making a project. Then when I go to export it... 4) "You are using the free version of this updated software. Would you like to export with watermark, or purchase the watermark-free version?" 5) I click neither, and opt to go back to the previous version of Filmora that I had already purchased. 6) The project that I spent many hours working will not open in the previous version. Thus, I have to choose between paying for the new version, exporting with a watermark, or starting the project all over again. I fell for this once, forgot about it, then fell for it again today. I am sadly paying for yet another update of Filmora that I don't necessarily want, but am forced to pay for lest I lose many hours of work. They won't fool me again. Even though I purchased their latest update today, I'm immediately deleting the program and never using it again.

#### Vendor response

We are sorry to hear that you didn't have a good experience with the Filmora upgrade. I'd like to address your concerns one by one, hopefully, it will help you. There are some effects, resources, and features that are updated on version 13, this is the reason that the project created in 13 couldn't be opened in an older version. You may contact the Filmora team to request a temporary license to export your current project and then edit new projects on the version 12 you purchased. The current Filmora 13 is an amazing new version with AI-related features bringing the tool to a new level. That is why we specified in our license policy that users who have a perpetual license might be charged for a major upgrade. However, users who own a lifetime plan since Filmora9 or an older version can upgrade to the latest version for free. Please drop an email at customer_service@wondershare.com if you need assistance further. Thank you!

Whether you are a freelancer or YouTuber or video editor. Filmora is the perfect video editor software for you. You can manage multiple projects at the same time by using the "save the project as a file" feature. You can easily convert your text to video and can generate good content for social media. Whether you are a video editor or your skill is video creator, Filmora has many tools for you to be a professional. But unfortunately, it is going to crash sometime and you may lose your whole project. so you need to be careful and keep saving your project every 10 minutes. I have used Filmora a long time ago But now Filmora has been improved much more. I hope it is going to be a perfect place for a video editor and for content creators.

#### Pros

Screen recording and voice-over features are unique in Filmora and I don't think any software will have such amazing features too. Each time you are going to record the screen, you can show your mouse click and can roundabout a point and this is too much important. Once you complete your recording, some unwanted noise is going to appear in your recording, You can remove that by using Noice remover. But doing this will delete some of your voice too. Now here Voiceover feature is going to help you a lot. You can easily record your script again and can make your video professional.

#### Cons

Blurring, Focusing, and other annotations are too much important for an editor person. But unfortunately Filmore has no feature like this. You need to download some custom annotation if you want to use it in your project because it has no annotation by default. Whenever I am going to use the noise removal tool, it is going to cut my audio also. Then again I use to record my particular script using the voice-over feature. I hope that the Filmora team will work on this and make it improve.
