J.L. PowerDirector Review

Reviewed 2 years ago

PowerDirector can be considered one of the best editing software to use for beginners when editing short or long form content on any mobile device. However, if you're someone who values your time to get the job done, PowerDirector is not the one for you. Editors who want to gain the full experience from PowerDirector, but lack the money, will unfortunately have no other choice but to pay to use their premium features. All in all, this is a good editing software to begin your journey in the process of content creation.

Pros

The almost precise naviagtion and cutting features when dealing with clips down to the frames. So I don't have much difficulty when editing on a smartphone or tablet.

Cons

The export qualities given restrict videos that were originally higher than 1080p. Alongside this issue, the export process is very time comsuming despite a great amount of free storage, and progress is lost when you exit the application.

PowerDirector can do it all pretty easily for a fair price

Reviewed 2 years ago

So far I'm glad I switched. I still have more to learn to be able to do everything I want to, but the ability to get to work right away was huge, and overall the program is sleek and fast.

Pros

I'd used another video editor for about 10 years but jumped ship when its latest version was confusing, slow and made my computer crash. I was able to jump right in the seat and use PowerDirector. Maybe not use it well at first, but I was able to make a video. Watching instructional videos, especially those of PowerDirector University on YouTube has really helped.

Cons

The company's own documentation is for older models. Too, some of the functionality is a little clunky.
