Final Cut Pro Reviews

If you are coming from iMovie, Final Cut Pro feels a bit more familiar and not as intimidating. Final Cut Pro is very friendly and take a lot less time to get used to compared to other pro level video editing software.

Not everyone might be able to afford the upfront lifetime cost of Final Cut Pro, and it might not be as reliable if you tend to collaborate with outside teams or enterprises.

What I like the most is the ease of use, very intuitive. It can be used by beginners as well as experienced video editors. The possibility to add tons of plugins with effects, visual overhaul, text, and audio plugins is endless, making Final Cut Pro really cheap and worth the money. I love that it is version based, and you don't have to be subscribed in order to use it. The rendering is mostly extremely fast.

The out-of-the-box effects are very limited, and you need to either create your own or use third-party plugins. Also, importing HDR videos from iPhone makes the project look so bright, it takes quite some time to figure out why and how to fix it.

Final Cut Pro is an easy to use beginner-friendly app. I started using this app first to get the basics of video editing in terms of the language, effects etc, after which I migrated to other platforms that did the same thing. The ease of access never measured up to that of Final Cut Pro so I ended up switching over back to Final Cut Pro. A great thing about it is that it doesn't utilize a lot of my battery percentage so I can get longevity on my battery life when using the software. I would recommend this software to a beginner in the world of video editing.

Ater fully editing my project I was ready and eager to export for use. The rendering process took almost forever to complete but I understood based on the nature of the task. After it completed rendering I left it overnight to export. When I got up to check the project it was at 27 PERCENT!!! I cancelled it and retried and it sat there for hours before it could be exported. I had to put off my presentation. I wished there was a prompt that indicated the issue that hindered exporting.

I like the interface to be user-friendly and intuitive. It offers me a wide range of tools and features, including 4K, 5K, and HEVC encoding. The advanced color grading tools make it easy to customize my videos. It also comes loaded with audio effects, soundtracks, and more. Plus, it includes a comprehensive library of soundtracks, sound effects, and more. Furthermore, it is compatible with a wide range of devices and formats.

When it comes to video editing, I find Adobe Premiere Pro to be more expensive than other programs. It also has fewer features than Adobe Premiere Pro and doesn't offer any help with motion graphics or tracking.

When I am using my Mac, I do love how seamlessly it integrates with my machine. Also, it's extremely user friendly. After just a few minutes of clicking around a novice user will be able to produce quality videos for a number of different platforms. Everything is extremely easy to locate within the program itself and seems intuitive to the user.

While it is extremely easy to learn, it's simplicity can have drawbacks. Some of the more complex functions and actions found in Premiere are missing from Final Cut. However, for a novice to mid range user (especially one using any type of Mac product) Final Cut is the clear winner of the two.

Ease of use. Previously, I have only used iMovie. All of a sudden I was asked to produce microlearnings for our new LMS and Final Cut Pro was the software chosen. I felt at home immediately. I get better and better each month and I owe that to the layout and accessibility of the software itself.

I have no qualms for the software at all. If anything, I want to take the next step with my video editing skills and know I must seek training and/or instructional videos.

I have been using Final Cut Pro for sometime mainly to create numerous instructional videos. I have always relied on its great features and abilities to produce short and concise instructional videos. With the use of the powerful trimming and cutting tools, I am able to edit and rearrange footage with ease to create a seamless, cohesive videos. Additionally, the audio editing process is simplified and with abilities to adjust volume levels, remove background noise and add audio effects. The result has been very clear and easy-to-follow instructional videos. The Title and graphics include many title and graphic templates. Occasionally I would import custom graphics for enhanced visual aids and explanations for the videos. With FCPX video effects, I am able to include some transitions and filters just to add in visual interest and emphasis.

While FCPX has a great community and accessible online tutorials, I have found that the third party Video Effects/motion graphics and templates are quite expensive in comparison to Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects. Overall, It comes out as an expensive editing tool and can be complex with limited support for certain video and audio formats.

I can easily make videos of any duration due to it. The filters and collaborative tools help me save myself a considerable amount of time. The software allows me to post my content on my social media sites, which is incredibly useful. It has a relatively user-friendly interface despite being very powerful software.

The program is quite pricey compared to other software options, and the fact that most collaboration tools don't offer a free version is a significant issue.

When I transitioned from Windows to macOS, Final Cut Pro was one of the first programs I installed. Being a beginner, I found it intuitive and got the hang of it in no time. With lots of tutorials available on the Internet on how to get specific things done with the software, I was never stuck, even as a beginner.

When compared with the main competition, Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro is a lot cheaper, and the one-off purchase price saves one a lot of money in the long run.

Apart from the limited number of effects you get by default, there isn't much to complain about.

Ease of use and clarity of features. Much less clunky than other editing software.

Sometimes the viewer is a bit slow and does have some compatibility with some formats and third party plugins.

This software interface is very user friendly. Dragging and dropping the video on the timeline directly saves a lot of time. The effects and transitions can easily be applied to one part or the full project which makes the process very fast and smooth. The exporting options like directly uploading videos to a youtube channel directly is very helpful.

As this software is premium the best tools and plugins costs a lot of money. So the only downside is the pricing. Because of the price range a lot of my team members can not afford it. If more free tools and plugins were available then undoubtedly the users would be benefited.

It is a fast software that has many features and is also easy to use. It is also stable.

I love it but it's a little too expensive. This is the only problem I have with this software

this software is very simple for video editing and moreover free

I have not encountered any problems with this software and does its job well.

It handles a wide variety of input formats, and has never struggled with any of them. I also find the output file preconfigured options quite useful, meaning I don't have to manually tinker with the output settings to tailor my videos for whatever particular purpose it is intended. I only get to point and pick. Another great thing about Final Cut is the user interface, just as most other apple products, absolutely beautiful and functional.

Integration options with non-apple products is either too difficult or completely non-existent.

I love the fact that you can link it with other software and have a seamless interaction for your needs.

It take a little bit to learn how to use all aspects of the software.

If you have Apple products I should say the best way to go is with Final Cut Pro. The design is beautiful and intelligent and I am sure you can even make very good materials. A feature I like more is its capacity to detect faces and objects.

I think that starting using the features of this software takes an amount of time. I could also add the price.

Although this is quite a robust tool I was able to manoeuvre through it as a beginner.

I find it crashes too much for my liking; the spinning beach ball of death is cruel.
Still a great product!

For me the most used options are the effects and video filters. Also the extra option of having color grading is really important, which is something that I was missing in Imovie.

It's more difficult to use when you are used to something more basic such as Imovie. But... I will say that if you are more serious about your video editing, Final Cut has way more options.

The many effects featured on Final Cut allow advanced editing, provided enough cpu. The time flex options operate as expected, image correction, master fx and many import/export possibilities render this software limitless.

To properly run this software on any large scale project, a high end mac is required as rendering times can be long. Not really best software for on the go/mobile production, yet this is not what was advertised. The audio editing possibilities remain basic but sufficient all the same. It is a rather expensive piece of software.

It can do pretty much everything you need in terms of video editing.One time payment for a lifetime product.

Final Cut Pro X needs and uses a lot of disk space and it can lead to some sort of lagging or issues. It's best to use with an external SSD.

If you have a mac and need to make or edit a video this is the software to use. Its easy enough for a beginner to figure out and complex enough for editors making videos for famous youtube personalities to use also.

I cant say i dont like it, but it is a mac only program. With that said if your making or editing videos you should be using a mac anyways.

- Easy to use
-Professional interface.
-Best for Mac computers
-Used by professional video creators

-Only limited to Mac only.
-It does not have a windows software.

The rendering is quick and everything is smooth on a m1 Mac

The layout could be more user friendly and more effects should be available, plus the supported codec for output is quite limited

Final cut pro is a all in one video editing software for macos users. It gives so much creative freedom for your content.

the only thing is it doesn't work in android.

Final Cut Pro is a robust video editing software that provides professional-grade features for video editors. With a sleek and intuitive interface, users can easily create, edit and share high-quality videos. The software allows users to work with various file formats, including 4K and 8K resolution, and has an extensive range of video and audio effects. The software also integrates well with other Apple software, making it an ideal choice for Mac users. Final Cut Pro's ability to handle complex projects and its range of powerful tools makes it a top choice for professional video editors.

While Final Cut Pro is a powerful video editing software, it is also relatively expensive compared to other video editing software. Additionally, its interface may be overwhelming for beginners, and the learning curve may be steep for those new to video editing. Finally, Final Cut Pro is only available on Mac OS, which limits its accessibility to users who use other operating systems.
