Pros

“Security – I would like something more secure to save projects as encrypted files, as we sometimes work on sensitive lookbook designs.”

Yasser A.

Graphic Designer

“It helps produce videos for beginners easily and video editing is also beginner friendly.”

Nasreen H.

Assistant professor

“Customer service is acceptable but could be quicker in resolving inquiries relating to export/export licensing or any non-functionality issues.”

Yasser A.

Graphic Designer

Pros

“I love the Ai features where I can create short clips and remove filler words!I also love how it also give me suggested clips to post on social media, show notes and a script for when I'm recording.”

Eryn L.

Owner and Creator

“I use this service for my weekly webinars, my workshops, my masterminds with clients and this service works phenomenally for all uses.”

Jennifer B.

Consultant

“You get all the different magic studio features that are just insurmountable and I'm even waiting for my show to grow in a way to where we can utilize the feature where someone is just in there and is actually just playing the producer role controlling the camera, switching the media doing that sort of thing.”

Donovan H.

Owner

Cons

“First, the free version always adds an intrusive, centred watermark to your exported videos.”

Bruno M.

Marketing Executive Intern

“Sometimes the AI function is spotty with captions, and I end up having to go in and edit so this also does consume some time I was expecting to save.”

Yoshio L.

Video Editor Content Creator

“terrible, annoyed and I just want my money back, so many red flags, like the fact you cant refund me, like not having an option for monthly subscription but instead it is yearly”

Janet E.

none

Cons

“The main issue I experienced was that today’s recording became a little choppy in the middle of an episode, which interrupted the flow of the conversation. While the platform has generally worked well for me overall, moments like that can be frustrating when you’re trying to maintain a natural discussion or record professional-quality content.”

Warda b.

Marketing Manager

“While on a live stream, every time someone leaves a new comment in the public chat, it resets all the way to the bottom. If you’re trying to show comments on the screen during the live stream, this can be very annoying.”

Eric C.

Lead Investigator

“I am using iphones and i do not have the ability to zoom my video recording also maybe i a beginner i found the web based editing to be extremely hard”

Zeeshan S.
