Pros
My overall experience with this software is very amazing and i strongly recommend Openshot video editor to the professionals who are looking for exciting video editing experience.
OpenShot is an open-source and award winning free video editing software. You can create stunning and beautiful videos using different professional transitions and effects.
I got it because right now my budget doesn't allow for anything better, and it's the closest to what I use at work, PowerDirector, which I love.
Cons
Another frustration I'm dealing with at this moment is how difficult the minimize functions are.
This is too much wasted time when you're editing a 1 hour, 10 minute video.
I assure you this is not an ad for PD. I 'm sure there are many better programs out there. But OpenShoot just frustrates me to no end, and PD is my only other frame of reference.
