Digital Marketing Assistant Marketing and Advertising Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/26/2026 "Easy-to-Use, One-Time Purchase Video Editor with Helpful Guided Edits" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Premiere Elements? I am confident that Adobe Premiere Elements offers numerous compelling benefits. First, it is easy to use and has a friendly interface. Secondly, Adobe Premiere Elements is a one-time purchase and not a monthly subscription. Finally, it enables guided edits, including trimming, transitions, removing, and colour correction of videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Premiere Elements? However, I also found some significant disadvantages of this software. Firstly, Adobe Premiere Elements lacks advanced tools for colour grading, visual effects, and keyframing. Secondly, this program does not provide AI-powered features, such as a professional speech-to-text workflow and object tracker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Premiere Elements solving and how is that benefiting you? This application is useful in different areas, and my work as a Marketing Executive Intern at Hackett & Hackett International Group Limited is one of them. For instance, Adobe Premiere Elements helped us create promotional videos for social media, websites, products, and services. Secondly, it allowed us to enhance the brand image. Finally, we also improved the YouTube and TikTok channels by adding corporate videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CEO Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/17/2022 "Premiere Review" 5/5 What do you like best about Premiere Elements?

Senior IT Systems Administrator Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 7/21/2021 "Excellent Video Editing Solution at a Great Price" 5/5 What do you like best about Premiere Elements? Adobe Premiere Elements (when purchased as a package with Adobe Photoshop Elements) costs between $100 and $150 for both applications. They have some advanced features that are reserved for the subscription Pro versions, but I've never needed any of them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Premiere Elements? The only complaint I would have about it is that you are limited to a smaller number of tracks in the application, so if you have a long video, with lots of media added (images, picture-in-picture, etc.), you might have to combine items into a single track, although this has rarely happened to me with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Premiere Elements solving and how is that benefiting you? I use Premiere Elements to make YouTube videos for a YouTube channel I run, as well as for some groups that I'm a member of.

Digital Media Producer Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 11/19/2019 "A tight and capable video editing environment" 4.5/5 What do you like best about Premiere Elements? Premiere Elements offers most of the main features that I look for when editing video. When I want to create simple videos, I like to stick to the basic timeline panel with only a few effects options which Premiere Elements does a good job at highlighting. Adobe Premiere Elements also comes with a solid library a video transitions that we can easily drag to the ends of our video clips to generate instantly smooth transition effects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Premiere Elements? Premiere Elements doesn't have many features that will allow for more advanced editing that can be achieved in software like Final Cut Pro or the full Premiere Pro program.
