"The tutorials and FAQs are comprehensive, making it easy for beginners to use."
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

Power Director allows you to add as many tracks as needed and include wipes and sound effects. Additionally, the interface is simple, with buttons and ribbons clearly arranged, and it operates smoothly. Even beginners can edit videos by dragging and dropping or clicking on the screen, checking each effect as they edit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

When I was performing a series of fine cut edits, the screen suddenly went blank several times, and the work I had just done was lost. Please improve this so that I can use it with peace of mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ideal for Basic YouTube Video Editing"
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

I appreciate that PowerDirector offers plenty of useful tools for basic editing. I use it for making YouTube videos, and I find adding text, music, and cuts to videos quite easy. I like its clipping videos and transition effects, which help me in creating engaging videos. It's very easy to setup and edit, which saves me time and effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

The pricing and it offers basic editing in the free version. It's not a pro editing software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Support sucks, but stock library, effects, and updates are incomparably awesome"
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

Updates are phenomenal. I'm using the PowerDirector mobile, and it's amazing how granular and vast the effects options are for the price. I pay $4.99 a month and have access to three enormous stock libraries of images, movies, and music, plus I'm using a fantastic chroma key, gaussian blur, and tons of really pretty effects like fire and magic that just make it so much easier to create fantastic worlds. I've played with some other mobile options, and this is by far the best, for me, especially for the price. You can even edit on mobile in 4k. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

Support for mobile sucks. It sucks sucks sucks. I cannot re-emphasize enough how many extra hoops they make you jump through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One stop tool for your editing needs"
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

I use this software for both personal and professional presentations. It is the ideal video/photo editor and serves all of my needs in one place. The cutting-edge AI technology that is integrated into this program is remarkable since it makes the otherwise tiresome task of editing and supplying videos and photos much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

This tool does not have much to be disliked but frequent addition of the new and trending effect and filters would help in keeping the content up to date and dynamic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Premium video editing Android application"
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

Power Director is one of the strongest video editing apps available on the play store. It has options for adding multiple audio and video on the same project. It also has the option to control the speed of video by the user. One of the best features which I like is that it can render videos to a quality of 4k which helps users to get excellent results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

The app is great but one thing I noticed is that PowerDirector takes a lot of time for video rendering and processing. If you want to add your personal watermark to the video then you can't do it because it does have an option only even though If you have the premium of the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Virtually Ransomware"
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

It's OK. Nothing similar software doesn't have that I can see. It's completely adequate. A little confusing to use. Could use better text transitions. Does a bunch of things I do not use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

They incessantly goad you to update - and when I tried to get what was promoted as a "free" update, it put watermarks on my video until I paid. The long and the short of it is that this software, while otherwise adequate, it is tantamount to ransomware. Keep looking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Its a very futuristic and easy to use software"
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

It has a download plugins/addons option, that makes your software more creative. There are tons of add-ons available on their official website. So go creative with this software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

Sometimes it slows down the system, and you may have to close this application to do further work, but the best part is, that it will recover your project after closing and restarting this application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great price and gives you lots of horsepower to create outstanding videos."
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

With the constantly growing list of addons and additional services, I am able to do outstanding work for my clients without paying a fortune or spending forever learning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

I wish you could use multiple versions of the program at the same time. That would help tremendously with the rendering process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
