Most of the FirstCut applications are top-notch. Only a few changes can be suggested to the team to make it more effective. First I would like to suggest that to improve the UI of the application to make it more user-friendly. This will also help in fast-tracking our work. Second I would suggest bringing something related to AI visuals which will have an impact on the tool and the customers.

The first and foremost recommendation to others while considering the First Cut is you try to use it for some time and then you will be comfortable with its features for your use. If you quickly judge based on a few tries then you will not be able to continue with the tool hence I recommend using it for some time before your commit your comments on the tool.

  ### 2. Best Video Production for SaaS

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 31, 2018

**Describe the project or task FirstCut helped with:**

We used FirstCut to build out our customer testimonial videos and product videos. The customer testimonials were great as our sales/marketing  teams use them to validate our product.  The product video are used by CS to help users on-board.  FirstCut filmed and then edited the videos. In addition they did our intro  animation that we use for all our videos. 

**What do you like best about FirstCut?**

The FirstCut team was professional, efficient and well priced. 
We are always nervous introducing our clients to a 3rd party team, especially when you are bringing them into your client's office. FirstCut was great. They showed up on time and were respectful of everyone's time and space. 

**What do you dislike about FirstCut?**

Wish I could see the B-roll footage in advance before editing starts. 
It would be great to at least see a screen shot of the b-roll footage. Some people are not good on camera so the more b-roll the better.
