Reviews (Snippets from G2)

Pros

  • Love that you can just drop down the video segments you need. Very easy to upload to vimeo, or other platform.
  • The easy power at your fingertips- this program has a relatively easy learning curve .
  • I use to use iMovie for all my video editing, even merging music together, but after a while, I wished I could do more with my videos.
  • Easy to learn, easy to use! Final Cut X opened up their doors for so many new customers.
  • Apple products have a reputation for good UX and responsiveness. Final Cut X lives up to the reputation.

Cons

  • I'm not a fan of it being nearly $300 for the download.
  • Final Cut Pro X also got few disadvantages, like they only support the mac operating system, which lacks.
  • Unfortunatley, those who are familiar with the old versions Final Cut Pro will see that FCPX is less powerful and more trimmed down, evidently to attract more consumers vs. prosumers.
  • The time and resources need to generate proxy files can be a lot.
  • The timeline can be tricky sometimes if you want to add another media before your first media.
