Adobe Media Encoder seamlessly integrates with Premiere Pro and After Effects. Sequences can be exported directly from these programs to Media Encoder for rendering outside of the parent application. Project files can even be opened in Media Encoder bypassing other software, allowing for use on dedicated render servers. Media Encoder supports many-threaded rendering for high-core-count CPUs as well as GPU acceleration for fast exports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adobe Media Encoder occasionally suffers from slow performance and crashes when loading sequences directly from project files. This behavior typically does not occur when launching Media Encoder from the export dialog in Premiere Pro. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I often find myself using Premier, or After Effects. To export, I use Adobe Media Encoder. The file format options are plentiful, and the software is well rounded. Even beginners can feel relatively at home in just a few minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Over time, I've found the software to be a bit buggy. While I'd say it works 90% of the time, files I send from other Adobe programs in the suite fail to transfer over, and I find myself having to "send" the file more times than I would like. It also crashes on occasion, something that is of a rarity with the other Adobe programs I use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Could possibly be easier to sync up with Premiere and After Effects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Adobe Media Encoder CC is dynamically linked to Adobe Premiere and Adobe After Effects, so I can export a video without an intermediate stage, to the desired format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think that the encoding presets for YouTube and Vimeo could be improved slightly, as sometimes it triggers recompression which reduces quality for viewers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adobe Media Encoder is my go-to software to use when encoding a video project. There are numerous settings, options and formats for videos, and encode exports take very little time. The investment is all-around well worth it, and I have never run into any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish pricing was a bit lower, but it is very much worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is such a easy to use programme for any file exports needed. It’s such a great interface and it’s super quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing at all. It’s a really good programme, I wouldn’t say you need to fix anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adobe Media Encoder works well with H265 codec, which is quite rare as it requires special licenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be quite slow to encode video, and at times it can freeze up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The media encoder is great for long renders especially when I’m editing on a Mac book with a slower processing system. I can keep working while the file is encoded in the background. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There’s not much to dislike when it comes to Adobe Media Encoder. The platform performs well, I haven't had many hiccups or errors with it. I would say the only issue I ever run into is codec problems when updating Adobe Premiere Pro. Sometimes, commonly used codecs go away and we have to recreate presets.
