Review by Megan Bostic

I’ve been using Corel and PowerDirector over the years. I like them for different reasons. Corel has always been pretty user friendly, so if I want to quickly edit something, that’s what I use. The interface is easy to use, the program has a number of templates, drag and drop effects, a variety of filters and transitions and professional looking titles. It’s also easy to load video, edit in the timeline, and make a cohesive movie to upload to the internet. You can also create video in a few different formats. So, for beginners, this is a great program.

If you’re a more advanced video editor, I’m not sure this is for you. You may need more effects and bells and whistles. But for the home user just wanting to transfer videos of the kids or vacation, or for the small time vlogger (which I’ve used it for many times), this program is just fine and well worth the price.
