About Adobe Premiere Pro

Adobe Premiere Pro is a cloud-based video editing software designed to help businesses create and edit professional videos using various built-in tools. Supervisors can import videos on the platform, add transition effects, and export finished footage to the required destination.

Adobe Premiere Pro allows designers to create animated slideshows, graphics, or titles, add or shift colors and utilize built-in templates to improve the video editing process. Managers can add music tracks across specific clips, render them and request for review to streamline approval and collaboration processes. It also lets users add captions in clips and automatically match colors using artificial intelligence (AI) technology.

Adobe Premiere Pro offers an API, which helps businesses facilitate integration with in-house applications including Adobe After Effects, Adobe Photoshop, and more.

Overall, Adobe Premiere is a great video editing program and is fairly enjoyable to use. As long as your hardware and other specs are up to what they should be, there are minimal stability issues, and it performs pretty great, in my experience. I've tried several other video editing programs, and Adobe Premiere has remained my program of choice for several years now. The ease of use and getting started, the ability to customize my interface into a layout that works really well for me, and the ability to handle multiple types of media types without issue are just some of the features that I love. There is a large community of users that is easy to get support and tips/tricks from, as well as Adobe's support, which have always been responsive and helpful for me. While there are things that it could do better, as a whole it works really well with my workflow and video editing requirements.

Pros

I really like how quickly I can get started editing with this program. I edit a lot of short form, fairly simple videos, and I like how I can just open the app, import my media, and get started. There's not a lot of hoops to jump through, and not a lot of setup that needs to be done just to get going. I love how easy it is to import a wide variety of media types. I rarely have issues with all the different types of media I work with. I love how quick and easy the timeline editing tools are, and using the keyboard shortcuts to quickly move back and forth and get a quick edit together before refining it further. The interface is also pleasant to work in, and not overly crowded or cluttered.

Cons

I often wish that the keyframe editing window and workflow were though out a little better. I find it difficult to use and get them accurately placed and edited without some frustration most times. The keyframe workflow in After Effects is so much better and easier to use, and I feel like the workflow in Premiere is just so much more tedious then it needs to be. I also get frustrated with the audio mixing interface and workflow. Working with audio plugins and automation always gives me issues, and using EQs and compressors and what not are mildly frustrating at best. I don't understand why they can't lay out a mix window the same way that almost everyone else does. I get that it's not an audio program, but audio is a major part of video editing, and it shouldn't be this difficult to get a good mix inside the editor.

Reasons for Choosing Adobe Premiere Pro

Apple was phasing it out and I didn't like the new version.

Reasons for Switching to Adobe Premiere Pro

Apple was phasing out Final Cut Studio 7 and releasing Final Cut X, and I preferred Adobe Premiere over the new Final Cut.

So my overall experience is amazing with Premiere pro , so as a freelancer i do a lot of video editing jobs , and some of them are from my permanent customers , and with the help of premiere pro i was able to do all the things that my clients have asked till date . It helped me alot to boost my career as a freelancer . And the most important feature is it's collaboration feature where i can work with my team in real time

Pros

So, talking about the things i like most about this software are, first of all it has a wide variety of format support so you can easily edit video in almost any format. Secondly, it has tons of video editing tools which can performs basic to basic and complex to complex tasks , even they are also bringing some features of automation, like we can automatically get frame cuts , on scene Changes withoout doing it manually , and at last in premiere pro we can work on multiple projects and switch between them seamlessly and also a whole team can work on a single project in real time

Cons

Although there are no things which are bad in this software , but if i have to point out something , then firstly , adobe now only have monthly subscriptions and we cant purchase the software for lifetime unlike past times and secondly as premiere pro is a very advanced software so it can be difficult and time consuming for new users to get used to it.

I tested Adobe PP as a potential video editing software. I create video content for social media (YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook), websites, and e-courses. I also occasionally will edit videos for clients.

Pros

What I love about Adobe Premiere Pro is the absolute control the user has over the software. This, of course, is completely determined by the users skill level. For a novice, PP will feel like an absolute roadblock, but for a seasoned pro will find comfort in having endless tools at their disposal. The color grading, in particular, is a stellar feature amongst entry level video editing softwares. Another pro is the seamless integration with other Adobe apps

Cons

I absolutely hate the User interface and user experience. This software looks and feels complicated and I get a headache just looking at it. When I was deciding between this and Final Cut Pro, one of the major factors in my decision to stay with FCP was that the interface is clean, simple and even beautiful. PP's is complicated, bulky and anything but beautiful. I'd go as far as to call it ugly. It feels discouraging and impossible to figure out when looking at it. The other side of having so many tools at your disposal is that it's complicated to find what you need because there are so many.

Alternatives Considered

VEGAS Pro, Filmora, DaVinci Resolve and Final Cut Pro

Reasons for Switching to Adobe Premiere Pro

I did not choose Adobe PP ultimately because of the price, complicated layout and hideous UI. I do believe that there are certain scenarios where PP will be the better choice over a FCP etc, but most people getting into video editing as a hobby or as a content creator will be much better off opting for Final Cut by Apple.

Best for video editing!

Reviewed on 18/08/2023

Pros

Transitions and effects can done very well based on how you want it.With all the available tools, everything you want to put in your video can be possible.Very intuitive with the available tutorials provided so you don't actually need someone to teach you on how to use some tools.I have been using this for my part time jobs and it never failed me with videos I am making.

Cons

For beginners it can be difficult at first because I think the whole layout of the workspace, tools, etc. can be confusing but once you get used to it, you will understand all the functions of each tools.

Pros

The best for beginner and expert video editing. Adobe Pr is simple to use, with outstanding results.

Cons

Adobe Pr isn't great when it comes to 3D and Vfx, luckily After Effects has that part covered.
