Good value for the money, at the very top
5
A very good value for the money if you're planning on investing in it for the long run, my company bought it for seniors to start using it, as they mentioned it to be more advanced, the ability to edit your shots in high res, adding that cinematic mode on it and tracking the focus with object tracking sold me, the color grading is on par with high end film software and the rendering speeds on our iMacs are solid, i do recommend it if you're planning on using it on the long run.
Ratings Breakdown
Reasons for switching to Final Cut Pro
The company wanted us to edit high res videos and take less time rendering and exporting, as well as it made it easy for us to edit cinematic shot and easier for color grading.

Final Cut Pro, the ideal video editor for our social networks
4
Final Cut Pro has offered me the freedom to create great projects to upload to my youtube channel, my networks like TikTok or Instagram and sometimes has helped me to develop videos for my clients, editing in this software is simple, even in aspects such as colorization, at other times I have been limited when making bigger post-production, I recommend this software for simple projects, we can create good videos for any occasion with this program, and I think any apple user can take great advantage of it.

An amazing editing tool fell from grace
3
I have been using Final Cut Pro for more than 10 years. It was way above Adobe Premier and second to Avid. However, the company decide not to continue to develop this beautiful tool, it fall from grace. However, it's an editing tool that you don't have to pay for subscription fee and it's sophisticated enough to win other non-professional editing tools. It offers a sound and graphic library that doesn't cost you extra dollars. Its editing technique is similar to adobe premiere, except some shortcut. So, for beginners, this is a great tool.
Ratings Breakdown
Reasons for switching to Final Cut Pro
Final Cut Pro X can no longer compatible with ProTool, many production companies no longer use Adobe premiere, because of the problem of the online editing - sound design and colour correction and output.

The Ultimate Video Editor

It is a piece of software that is visually pleasing and has a user-friendly interface and all the pro features. We have been using it for years in our group. It has never failed me down. As an e-learning firm, we consistently generate a ton of flexible video material, which always delivers.

Reasons for choosing Final Cut Pro
I liked the interface, was much more friendly for a new user. After Effects seemed like the more "professional choice" but I liked the simplicity and 'approachable-ness' of Final Cut.
Reasons for switching to Final Cut Pro
Bought a Mac, needed new software. Tried out After Effects and chose Final Cut!

Final Cut Pro: Unleashing Your Creativity in Video Editing
4
As an intern at the IT department in the university, I had the opportunity to work with Final Cut Pro on various video editing projects. I found the software to be powerful and efficient, especially when working on complex projects. The software's interface was easy to navigate, and its range of tools made it easy to accomplish tasks quickly. However, it did take some time to learn the software's advanced features, and the price may be a barrier for some users.
Ratings Breakdown
Reasons for switching to Final Cut Pro
While there are many video editing software options available, Final Cut Pro stands out with its advanced features and tools, making it the top choice for professional video editors. Additionally, it seamlessly integrates with other Apple software, making it an ideal choice for Mac users. While it may be expensive, the software's efficiency and powerful features justify its price.

An intuitive, easy to learn PRO video editing software.

I use Final Cut to edit e-course videos, YouTube videos, and sometimes even videos for Facebook and Instagram. It gets the job done well. It's easy to understand and navigate. It's great for novice video editors and full-out pros. It's a great, versatile software that's really a pleasure to work with.

I chose Final Cut based on the usability. It was easier to use and understand as I've mentioned in detail above.
Reasons for switching to Final Cut Pro
Final Cut was just soooooooooo much easier to navigate. Sooooo much easier to understand. Sooooooo much easier to figure out. As a self taught video editor, this was what really set Final Cut Pro apart from the rest.

Great (but expensive) solution if you love the Apple ecosystem
5
A pleasant software to use, that puts you at ease and is slowly discovered as you use it. The interface is well thought out, just to avoid being scared and overwhelmed by buttons and various options. The limitation of not being able to share with Windows users is definitely worth considering if you work in a team.

Great for people who don't like traditional editing software
4
It's a great product for a very specific editing market. Solo editors working in social media, or only occasionally having to do editing jobs will feel right at home. Editors in a collaborative high-pressure environment are better off with more traditional editing solutions.
