Final Cut Pro X is my go to software for all my video and audio editing needs. It is quite advanced. Yet with a background with Imovie software I was able to catch on. I'm still learning new features as new projects come up. It has all features you may need and plugins to add for additional cost for more advanced tools. The option is there and that's what makes it the best in my opinion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes it is not easy to figure out how to use a particular feature and it may require searching for tutorials from external sources. Yet I believe this is the case with most softwares. It is a great software but can only be mastered by those who have an extensive experience and background in editing, photography and videography. The average person will struggle but it's not impossible to figure it out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a bit costly for these limited features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
FCPX's ability to handle all video types is fine. I expect other editors can say the same. However, having the Apple "edge" and ability to interact with all (my) Apple devices puts a familiarity and consistency to things. The features are vast and even though I make TV commercials, I've only scratched the surface of all the tools available. One can be come VERY productive the FCPX.

My only complaint is even with two monitors my editing real estate is taxed. Sometimes my timeline has so many layers that I have no choice but to scroll up or down to get to something. I would prefer having it ALL visible at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been fortunate to use FCPX over the last fifteen years. It is a wonderful online editing tool that delivers each and every time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing that I dislike about FCPX. It's interface and ease of use sets it apart easily from other video editing software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is unbelievably simple to use. The shortcut keys like 'C' for the cut tool make everything so simple. Plethora of options to select from which are all infinitely customizable. You will not need to rely on any customer support as most of it is self-explanatory, but a few things might need Googling like knowing what the Keyer (green screen) effect is. Great options for simple sound editing, the precision editing is really a beast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Expensive as the software and the hardware required are expensive. You will get tied down to the ecosystem. Compiling even just a 10-minute video can take a really long time. Competitors like DaVinci Resolve are pretty good as well and open source as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its so easy to cut clips and put them on the timeline. Most of the processes are straightforward and organization can be contained inside of your projects (Libraries). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't like that there is little customization of the window layout, and my windows don't always stay the way I left them. I need to see audio meters and I have to open them every time. I'm sure there's a layout setting I can change to make a "custom" layout but I'd rather it just keep what I did last time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I absolutely Final Cut Pro X, especially it's simplicity. I used iMovie recreationally for years, and when my marketing company asked if I knew how to do video editing for YouTube and social media, I said yes.
I figured I'd have a steep learning curve with Final Cut Pro, but it's extremely intuitive and similar to iMovie. I don't use every advanced feature, but when I need to, I can easily find a tutorial on YouTube. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the text editor is weird when adding captions to videos, and occassionally, it'll crash if I'm doing to many edits - though that could definitely be due to my laptop. Overall, I'm very impressed with how easy Final Cut Pro X is to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
