Pros

“The drag-and-drop interface, built-in effects, and quick export options help save time and improve productivity. While it may lack some advanced features for professional editing, it is an excellent choice for beginners and intermediate users who want efficient and reliable video editing software.”

“Overall movavi gets the job done with video editing and it's editing features which is more than the free video editing feature offered by Microsoft but definitely not at the level of big name video editors.”

Cons

“They only thing I don't like is that, when adding more than 1 video tracks it slows down the whole software and sometimes crushes.”

“However, some features or lack of them can be a bit frustrating such as having to search for the export formats for things like Facebook.”

“I can only point two cons but I guess the crashy and laggy part sometimes when a lot of elements are stacked is due to my RAM and processor.”

Cons

“What I liked least about Movavi Video Editor Plus is its limitation in advanced editing features and the restrictions in the free version, which can make it less suitable for more professional or complex projects.”

“You guys tempted to fraud your customer by facture even if we desactivate the auto-renew. And you try to pretend that you're Davinci Resolve in Google Search.”

“Limited Advanced Features: It lacks advanced editing tools that professionals might need, like multi-camera editing or motion tracking and limited customastion for advance editing”
