Excellent Product!
Reviewed on 25/3/2022
I am looking forward to updating our school website with video editing and being able to produce videos of student performance.
Pros
I know everyone raves on Apple products like imovie. I could not follow how to add and edit the way I wanted to with that program with just simple tasks. Even Windows Movie Maker was making simple edits more complicated than they needed to be. I found I was wasting a lot of time using these video editing programs.
AVS Video Editor was EXACTLY the product I needed! I can easily drag and drop media like photos, songs, and video into the program and edit, splice, merge, and add all the fun transitions and effects without having to read a manual to figure it all out. It is very simple to use, but delivers powerful, professional results! Thank you for creating this video editing program!
I am so thankful for the person who recommended it to me!
Cons
My only con is that I didn't know about this sooner. I LOVE this program.

Decent software with more-than-basic features. Good for intermediate level projects.
Reviewed on 22/4/2022
It's great, depending on the project. A quick snip and clean-up jobs turn out great.
Pros
The work space is clean and easy to navigate. Editing features are relatively easy to use and options are above average, but not extensive. A lot of control over output options and quality is high-end.
Cons
Would like to see more flexibility with effects -- either option to download more from site or ability to create own effects or tinker with code on existing effects. Repeated issues exporting crashes of final video. Have combed over online help, read through previous submissions, but resolutions were not easy to come by. Spent A LOT of time trying to find a fix, as have many other users from what I've read.

A first users look at AVS Video Editor
Reviewed on 7/4/2022
I would say excellent! From start to finish with our first project, it was quick, easy and clean to build the videos exactly the way we wanted them.
Pros
Ease of use and understand UI! From the get go we could jump right in and start using the software. The ease of use and intuitive nature of the UI allowed us to create right away. We also loved the mouse over tool tips! They help orient us on the features and functions of the UI!
Cons
I wish we could resize the play back window when on another monitor.

Serves Its Purpose
Reviewed on 22/9/2022
I realize that there are other video editors available. But once I learned how to use AVS for my basic needs, I stuck with the software. My weekly process is rather elementary and AVS serves its purpose for me. While there are a wide range of features available, my time schedule limits me to only the simplest ones. But the software works well to reach my goals.
Pros
I use this product weekly and essentially do not alter the features from week-to-week. I appreciate the consistency though there are many features that I do not utilize.
Cons
There is a sizeable "learning curve" for those, like me, with zero video editing experience. Trial-and-error is the name of the game. Once I discovered how to use the most basic features, I stuck with them. My weekly presentation process, though, may not match the more elaborate undertakings of other users.

High end multi features for low end price
Reviewed on 12/11/2022
I commonly use AVS Video Editor and Video Converter to import videos, snip off pieces of the video that don't work and merge with another video to create a seamless and custom how-to video demo for my clients. I also use it frequently to convert videos to another format so that it can be used on various social media and website platforms. I've also used the video converter to compress or reduce the file size of a video.
Pros
Easy to use for the non-technical to get the job done without a massive learning curve. I'd rather use this software to snip videos, merge with other videos and convert videos from one format to another so that my video can be used on a website, social media platform or a live presentation. I also think the unlimited price is great, even if you only use the software once in a while, it's totally worth it.
Cons
Some of the documentation isn't written as clearly as it could be.

Very Powerful Editor
Reviewed on 1/7/2021
I like the editor because it allows me to crop and resize while keeping the aspect ratio, it does not add additional artifact to the output file and using it with AVS Video converter make it a seamless transition
Pros
Easy to use, and fast on rendering (if you have a good cpu)
Cons
The features are good but lack support for 3rd party hardware. What I mean I have the Nvidia 1050 TI which has cuda and hardware acceleration built in but currently this version does not take advantage of this, or it just does not work on my current installation.
Secondly it does not fully support DVD compliant output, as it is more leaning toward MP4 and H.264/265, because most of the things I do are in broadcast format MPEG-2, If I edit in this software I can only export to MP4 or h.264/265 and then use another program to convert to MPEG-2 which adds more time to my project and the quality suffers because I and using multiple compressions

Easy to use, great results
Reviewed on 7/10/2019
I used it for several years to process the video recordings from a church service and create DVDs for use in nursing homes (so shut-ins could see the service), editing as necessary to keep the total time within one hour. Now I use it for a Toastmasters club, to extract speeches and evaluations from the video recording, and make them available for people (on YouTube, with link from our club website) to see what we do in our meetings or for members to see their own performance to as to improve.
Pros
I have no background in doing any kind of video editing, but it is easy, using this software, for me to extract the clips I want from a file, edit out a short segment where needed, and create a file that can be either burned to a DVD or uploaded on YouTube. I also like not having to keep paying for a new license when a new release comes out, just download and install.
Cons
I find it difficult to figure out what features are available that I don't typically use. For instance, I wanted to try to improve the sound quality when the meeting took place in a very echo-y room. I finally figured out that the online help referred to a newer version of the software, and downloaded and installed that, but still had trouble figuring it out. The sound quality is still not what we would like, but considering the low cost of the software, and it does as well as it does, I can't really complain.

You get so much more bang for your buck with this particular program. There are others that are out there that come with other hardware that I have purchased and none of them have half of the choices and things you can do with it unless you buy them a lacarte which makes them very expensive and very limiting. With this video editor your possibilities are limitless.
Pros
This product is easy to use, it just keeps getting better with each update I have a lifetime use of this product and every time that I use it I find something new and exciting. It has a lot of choices to make your video exciting and many choices in order to accommodate the customers I serve

I like that I can use several media in my presentation. The software has accepted every form of media I’ve used. I can pinpoint the exact point in my video to insert a title or photo.
Cons
It may be the computer I’m working with, but I’d love a faster production of my projects. As I’ve gotten more creative & am using different media, my productions have gotten longer & more complicated. My most recent upload was almost 2 gb. It took over an hour to produce an mp4 video.

AVS4You really is for YOU!
Reviewed on 9/12/2021
I have made many videos for authors, promoting their books. I have used AVS for corporate videos, ads and for personal enjoyment. I did a demo reel for several actors, importing VHS footage, Super 8mm, and digital for use in their promotions.
Pros
I've been using AVS video and audio editors for more than 6years, almost since they came online. At first, coming from using Media 100, Premiere and FCP, I was skeptical. I figured that, for the price, it would at least be a good previewer or dailies editor. Instead, I found the best tool for the prosumer market in video editing. I have purchased many licenses, mainly because I would out-grow a particular PC. At one point I had a desktop and two laptops running AVS! I also have assisted friends and colleagues with the program, and have added at least ten more enthusiastic users of AVS over the years. I love how AVS has added more support for capture, effects and other features.
Cons
The licensing model is a bit restrictive, for moving from PC to PC, but the low price justifies the expense for my business.

AVS is a Licensing RIPOFF
Reviewed on 1/7/2021
AVS4YOU company has a terrible purchase agreement to their software. Do not buy their program unless you do not mind that the license activation is only good on ONE computer and a ONE time activation. So, if you reinstall Windows or buy a new computer, you have to RE-PURCHASE their software again. Their programs aren't really all that great and only used for certain situations. I paid about $140 for 3 licenses that I can not even use now, so be sure you know what you are buying and if it is worth it as a 1 time shot... AVS in my opinion, is not worth the money because of needing to re-purchase it every time is just ridiculous. 😠 -- This post I also publicly posted on Facebook.
Pros
Having a program that has many different focuses one 1 particular tool worked well.
Cons
Each program was "OK", didn't have every bell and whistle but it can be used for what it is.
HOWEVER, the biggest CON is their licensing system! You can only activate this program on ONE computer ONE time! If you need to format your computer and reinstall, ITS GONE! MONEY LOST!
There is NO OPTION to reset your license on your account for when you cannot activate it due to too many installs.

AVS Video Is Easy to Use
Reviewed on 24/3/2022
I am very happy with AVS video editor. I needed an editor that was easy to use but offered plenty of features for the type of video editing work I do for our health care organization. Your economically priced product lead me to trying on AVS and I'm very happy that I did.
Pros
I find video editing with AVS to be very easy and intuitive. This is very important to me as my department is understaffed and I have little time for learning overly complicated video editors. When I've had questions about how to do something, I've been able to find helpful online resources and have received excellent customer service by your team.
Cons
I wish that AVS video editor had more ability to personalize various defaults so that it works better for me. For instance, I frequently need to add slides from PowerPoint presentations into the videos I edit. (We record many online health seminars for our patients). When adding these to the video I always have to resize them to fill the screen--this can be very time consuming. There should be a way to set the default to full screen so I don't have to resize every image.

Great Software Easy To Use But Has Bugs
Reviewed on 2/7/2021
Works, but buggy file saves.
Pros
It was easy to learn from the start. I had some issue getting into the editing aspect, but the online videos on YouTube were very helpful.
Cons
The file save functions are buggy. The "Save As' feature does not work as expected and seems to change the original file whether it is write protected or not. I believe this problem is just a visual bug in the video manager area, but support was unable to resolve this issue after months of back and forth conversations. I have heard nothing more on the problem after they said they could replicate it, but did not know why it was there. The issue was present on several computers at my location and across several versions of the software.
