Review by Jeri Zerr

I’ve recently been tinkering in Adobe Premiere Pro CC, Cyberlink PowerDirector 12 Ultimate and Pinnacle Studio 17 Plus along with having used Nero and Roxio video editing products in the past.

Obviously the absolute best program of the bunch is Adobe Premiere Pro - at a premium price. Within the reasonable and affordable price point for PURCHASED software (instead of a monthly license structure that Adobe CC has transitioned into) the PowerDirector 12 Ultimate is superior since I was not overly impressed with Pinnacle Studio 17 Plus. Both PowerDirector and Pinnacle Studio 17 are far far superior to Nero and Roxio video editing products.
