Pros / Cons
- It offers a whole set of tools and functions that allow you to add subtitles, effects, interesting transitions to your video, or add your own recorded voice as a soundtrack.
- The free version's download page did not openly note that one cannot use it in the free version to edit a video longer than 60 seconds, so now they refuse to give me access to my 2hour video without paying for a different version.

- The only suggestion that I would find to be useful to new OBS users, would be if there were a more comprehensive & expanded downloadable .pdf user and functions manual. Or even a more expanded "hints" segment when initially logging on so that it can teach you about all of the various uses & functions available to the user.
- It is a fight to configure the docks in the space you want them and many times the configuration is not supported so it wastes precious screen space.
