"A Powerful tool for video"
4/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

I love that this is one of the only software's where I can edit my 360 videos. No software has been able to edit it as well as cyber link power studio. It combines well with music and has great special effects. The exported video can easily and quickly be uploaded to Youtube. Overall i love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

I wish the videos rendered faster in live view. It can take awhile making it hard to see the live result of your edit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"CyberLink PowerDirector Review"
4.5/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

I would consider myself a novice with video editing software. I found the software fairly easy to use with no training needed. The help features were useful if I found myself stuck. I felt the product was packed with features (probably more than I needed) but as I create more I know those advanced features will be useful in later videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

The "tracking" was something I would have liked to use more, but unfortunately the object tracking moves from point to point and did not stay with the original. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"power director commentation"
5/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

The ease of use provided by the softwares that enables you to edit videos in a very easy way with just downloading templates of your taste from their site director zone Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

the fact that you cant create your own template within the software hence requiring a third party software to generate one. It could be best if they introduce that feature in every stand alone software for a personal computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great program for intermediate videographers"
4/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

I really enjoy all the extra effects you can download from their website and import into the program. While it's not as simple to figure out, the tools are much better than many other video editing softwares. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

I would enjoy the program a little more if it did not look so busy. As an intermediate level videographer that primarily uses PowerDirector 16 for promotional videos for my organization, it can get frustrating when I want to create a simple video and it takes longer than I'd like to find the type of effects and transitions I'm looking for. There's so much going on when you open the timeline mode that it can be difficult to navigate and work quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy yet Powerful Video Editor"
5/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

I like the ease of production. The drag and drop feature along with the powerful tools allow for a smooth and professional end product. Editing videos with music are enjoyable with the tools provided. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

It takes a little bit to open and has 2 questions every single time. I do a lot of video production with photos. We have events and make a video from photos. This is VERY time-consuming because there does not seem to be an easy way to do batch transitions or auto transitions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great program for creating videos with audio"
5/5
What do you like best about PowerDirector?

PowerDirector is an easy to use video editing and creation program. I have assisted with creating and editing several videos for our agency, without having any issues using PowerDirector. In fact it was so easy to start using that I was able to teach myself the program and move on to personal music videos for my band as well. I have made simple lyric videos, as well as more detailed videos using still photos and short video clips. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDirector?

There is nothing that I dislike about PowerDirector at this time. I have had a great experience using it so far! I have been able to find answers to my questions by googling so its been a pleasant experience creating and editing videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
