Powerful Yet Free Video Editor

  • March 07, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The design was easy enough for someone like me to do basic editing and I am not the best at learning new programs.
What do you dislike about the product?
All free programs have some issues and don't have very good support if you need to know how to do something. I only ran into a little bit with this, or crashing, but it wasn't that annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to use this to put together a video about our clinic to show the construction and progress and what it is now for promotion in our website. It was a one time use but it helped a lot and didn't cost a hundred dollars.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Have everything you want before using it. The only difficulty I had was rearranging things so I had to start over a few times. But I'm not the best at fixing things like that so maybe you won't have this issue

Creating stunning videos had never been easier

What do you like best about the product?
the best thing i like about openshot is the level of simplicity this software provides .Its just so wonderful to see how easy it is to navigate through the options .It was easy to learn more easy than adobe premier pro which was so much confusing.Now i have a good hand on openshot,my friends firsts thought i was an expert in movie making.I installed it and use the to convert , edit,crop , video, even though i have a low graphic card which is entry level it performs so well the software is well optimized. openshot support 70 plus languages as i have my friends overseases who struggle sometimes to navigate and get a effect done so i can easily let them know and help by whats going worng.the best thing is it is a free software which is available to every one on the internet to download and get their hands on.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its a Open-source software so we users have to be patience if we get any issues or find our own solutions for them. scrollling through the timeline lags sometime and it wiil be good if the theme options for the software would be more ,it also gets buggy sometimes they need to get the small updates to overcome thatso it wont crash
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
it has been a benifit if i look back at my journey with it as i can just put in my drone footage and edit it quick without engaging in any other software and worry about the prices to pay as openshot is a free software and easy to use than many other software in the competition
Recommendations to others considering the product:
i will definitely recommend to my kids and my friends and teach them as it is pretty easy to use the software and be a professional video editor and create best movies

Fast Prototype Environment

I'm currently working with my company on a proposal for a video editing tool for a potential client. With OpenShot, I was able to build a small proof of concept to demonstrate the basic functionality in just about a day of work. I found the documentation to be clear and the one time I had a question, I got an almost immediate response via email.

If this project goes forward, OpenShot seems like a perfect platform to build out our production application on.

OpenShot is a great way to create API-based videos. Their customer services is also prompt and very good. Thanks; we are very happy!

Solid video editing/processing API

There is a really lack of good products on the market that can accomplish programatic video creation. When our previous provider went belly up we were put in a tough spot, because there were no suitable replacement products on the market! ... Just in time, we found this newly launched Openshot API - and it was easy to setup and very powerful in what it can accomplish. In a matter of days we have been able to code most of the integration we need to create real estate tours. The developer is also very active and has a good plans for future development!

Easy to use

I just needed a quick way to carve up videos and this worked perfectly. The REST API made it very easy to integrate into our existing products.

Awesome! Easy to setup and use - works great!

We've used the OpenShot desktop application for quite a while, so it was great to hear about this AMI. I jumped at the chance to install and try it out and it was way easier than I expected. The AMI installed without a problem and the product worked perfectly in my tests.

The OpenShot Cloud API allows you to upload, edit, render and then retrieve the modified videos. From what I can tell, the typical features for a video editor are there: layers, effects, transitions between clips, multiple export formats, etc.

The AMI instructions are just a few lines and will have you up and working in very short order. There is a built-in browser-accessible REST interface as well, so you can actually do everything you want in your browser to just test it out. I was able to spin up the instance, create a project, upload a video, and have it rendered with a "negative" effect in just a few minutes, really. And the video was then available to view in the browser. This was on the smallest allowed instance type and using a very short test video.

A real-world use of this platform would be to integrate it into a video production pipeline, accessing the REST API through code, but the browser interface is a nice plus, for sure, and lets you jump in and test it out.

There are more detailed docs available, too. I would like see the docs expanded a bit, but I didn't have any issues and didn't really dig too deeply. The "Getting Started" section was really all I needed, and there are code examples there as well.
