What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

(Original )Information
What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

For years Vegas has been a very easy to use and helpful editor. I started using it for audio way back in the early 2000's and I loved how it allowed me to edit and do things with my music files that I could not do with other software. The normalizing feature for audio, the cropping precision and the way it was designed made it a delightful experience.

With Vegas pro, you can see all that, plus the video editing tools that have been just improving with time. The UI has been redesigned and adapted for more modern needs and looks similar to other tools like Adobe or Final Cut, but keeping the basic tools from Vegas. It still feels familiar and gets the job done Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

I remember that in previous versions, the one thing I disliked about Vegas on the video editing level, was the fact that graphics and transitions were usually lower in quality compared to Final Cut or Adobe software. There has been improvement yes, but they are still a little behind Adobe and Final Cut. Since the software runs only with Windows, it also requires good graphic cards to see better results in video editing previews and when exporting files and playing them on a TV I did see a better framerate and color grading from the Adobe or Final Cut files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is VEGAS Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Now that the software has a subscription option, pricing is more accessible and it allows more people to use it and have a good editor on their computers. I don't use VEGAS as much as I used to back in the day, but it's my number one editor on PC when it comes to audio editing because I just love it.

I believe that on a general level, VEGAS Pro is providing an alternative for people that don't use or can't afford the Adobe suites or more complex software for editing and the software has a more familiar UI now, so anyone changing from Final Cut or Adobe to Vegas will have a similar experience when exploring the interface and it makes the adaptation process a lot shorter.

What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

It's definitely a program that is easy to understand, you don't need to be an expert like other ones, the transitions, and all other plugins are still suitable for editing short videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

Sometimes it gets kind of slow even if you are not rendering the video still slow when loading videos to your editing board as well as some slow issues when adding audio Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is VEGAS Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use it when I need to run a promotional video for my social media and when I'm giving my class. I know there are plenty of tools online but this is one that you definitely need to try before others Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

Vegas Pro is one of the best premium video editor tools. Vegas comes with lots of preloaded features. Trimming, merging, and audio modulation were very easy to use. The user interface is also very sleek and understandable, however, I don't use all the features.

Vegas Pro also supports Plugins (from third-party and from Magix) for different features and FX effects. And The pricing was fair compared to other competitors, and the payment model was a one-time payment, with no need to subscribe. However, thy now has both one-time and subscriptions model for payment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

I liked that fact, whatever necessary tools you need to edit a video, Vegas Pro has all, but as a basic content creator, you won't need all the features and functions. In the begging, it will be very complex to use, because of the vast number of features and tools. When I had Vegas pro in my system (in 2017), I was frustrated with the rendering time, and heating up the system, I was using an i5 4th Gen CPU. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering VEGAS Pro:

If you are looking for a complete Video editor tool with one-time-payment subscription, then Vegas Pro could be an option for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is VEGAS Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Editing Good quality videos was very difficult for me, and I found out about Vegas Pro. Using that I edited lots of my educational video and directly uploaded to Youtube. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

VEGAS Pro contains an enormous amount of features, which is excellent when you want to accomplish some niche tasks in video editing. The support for addons and extensions also means you can usually find what you need for any project. While not very easy to use, especially for beginners, it does allow a significant degree of customizability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

The usability of VEGAS Pro leaves a lot to be desired. The interface is quite complicated and, while having many features can be helpful, the sheer amount of elements present in the GUI can make simple video editing jobs a chore. When you need to make a 20-minute gameplay video for YouTube and need to get it done quickly, you may find yourself unable to meet your deadline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering VEGAS Pro:

If you need video editing software that can handle just about any project you have in mind, VEGAS Pro is right for you. If you're looking for something simple to edit, say, gameplay videos, I would look elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is VEGAS Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

VEGAS Pro has allowed me to create entertaining content for my YouTube channel. It's allowed me to learn a lot about the video editing industry and helped me to hone my skills. I've created content using VEGAS Pro for several years that has grown my YouTube channel significantly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
