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.

"Best Video Editing Software for Social Media"
5/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

The software can render videos up to 4k.

The rendering speed is awesome.

It comes preloaded with many text animations, effects, and transitions.

The best part is you can change and play with the settings of the preloaded effects and animations with ease.

It's a lot easier to create simple motion graphics and typography compared to its competitors.

The learning curve is simpler than most other software that has so many features.

Color grading premium luts come along with the software.

There is a whole PowerDirector community and stock library for it's users to access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

In the timeline, the uppermost layer comes as the background instead of the foreground.

It is basically in reverse direction as compared to other editing softwares. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It is very easy to use"
5/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

What I like the most is that it is very intuitive and easy-to-use software. You don't have to be an expert in video editing to use it, as all the tools are visible, and if not, they are very easy to locate. It has many transitions and effects that allow us to bring videos to life, we can divide the video into chapters if we wish, record voiceovers, add music, edit it, etc. When exporting our edited video, it gives us many options. I really like everything about this software and I am very satisfied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

I haven't had any problems and there's nothing I dislike about this software. On the contrary, I'm getting more and more pleased using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

Love the affordability and ease of use. It has all the bells and whistles of the more expensive competitors yet much more affordable. Great tutorials as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

The only thing I dislike is the screen save video option is a bit wonky when making personal videos from your PC. Everything else is solid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One-Time Cost Solution for Photo and Video Editing Basics"
3.5/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

What I like best and the reason I ended up going with Power Director is that it is a physical software I could purchase one time and load onto my computer- not a recurring subscription. It is a very cost-effective solution for basic photo and video editing. Though I have not reached out to the company directly for support, there are a lot of YouTube videos out there from others who can help teach you new ways to use the service. I like that it goes above and beyond what you can do on an app or whatnot and gets into some of the more knitty gritty features when those are wanted or needed. If you have the time to spend digging into it, there is a lot you can do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

It's not the most intuitive editor I've ever used. I find myself having to youtube how to do some stuff, but I also don't have much experience in the field. This is definitely a product that you are going to have to teach yourself and spend time learning on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"PowerDirector is a great AFFORDABLE alternative to Adobe"
4/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

My favorite things about PowerDirector is how affordable it is and how often then update the software. Its really nice that the company is constantly providing new templates and graphics for the videos every month. We do a LOT of video editing so its really nice to have some variety. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

Powerdirector can be a bit buggy at times and has crashed on occasion, which can be extremely upsetting. I've also found that some customizable aspects are only available for tradition video shapes, so the mobile editing can be very limiting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how I am able to edit my videos for personal and business reasons (i.e. product reviews, unboxing, tutorials and etc.) I also like how it is pretty easy to navigate and use. Even if you are an expert like me you can pretty figure it out and etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of the features are limited and not available to use on the free version I have. However, it is to be expected. Also, it does tend to freeze up at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
