I hate to do this but I've spent 3 months now trying to learn this and it's just too over my head.
I do the odd video for a product for Vine but mostly I do some educational program stuff for the wildlife santuary I do volunteer work for, nothing major or fancy. I'm no expert or even all that into it.
So, from my newb perspective, this is way over my ability to comprehend.
There's hover blurbs on the lower menu and that's how I usually learn new software. There's no hover info on the list of stuff to do on the left function list.
Each option brings up pix of examples of the various levels that function can do. That part's handy but some of them aren't really understandable by the examples given and some only have one example.
All that to say it seems like you already need to be pretty into this to understand. Meaning, it's probably not for newbs like me.
The program itself loads pretty slowly but it seems to be feature-heavy so somewhat expected.
I took a few pix to show the client, effects, and such. Hopefully that's useful to some.
As far as rating, it's far beyond my abilities but it does seem feature heavy, as I mentioned, and that's always good. It does say "Pro", of course, but one can never trust that kind of thing isn't just marketing hype so I tried it.

I think they really mean that "Pro" part of the name (not for newbs)

When you use it you will see a number of features that point toward the company’s upgraded software and subscription software. For example their “media” subscription files are for a product that is two tiers (price wise) higher that will give you premium licensed content to use with your own projects on licensing that won’t limit your use. If you think you are going to need any of those things you will want to consider the upgraded products or wait to see if they offer you a separate option to subscribe/use those files. I wasn’t able to find one available at this time and did contact the company to find out what options were currently available.
Who is this for? Anyone who needs to edit video at a level appropriate for home use, social media, and commercial applications but wants to do so on a budge. The software offers all the interfaces you need and can render to specification.
If you are starting your first Vlog, channel, or other broadcast based presence, or if you are just wanting to share a story or information this will give you the opportunity to produce commercial quality video.
For newbies there will be a learning curve just like anyone who hasn’t done any significant amount of video editing. There are a lot of tutorial videos available and if you know what you want to make you will be able to do it with this software.
If you are experienced then it is a breeze, a lot of things are exactly where you’d expect them to be and at the price you will be amazed at what it can do. Again, if you are working on things that are more complex or need additional resources, consider the upgrade.
