SCRATCH offers solid performance and precise control, which really shows in complex, multi-layered projects. The automatic audio sync is impressively accurate, and the customizable macros help streamline collaboration by speeding up repetitive tasks. I also appreciate how easily I can store and reuse color settings across clips—it saves time and keeps everything visually consistent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about SCRATCH? The mode-based interface takes a bit of getting used to. While it becomes powerful with time, a more intuitive or flexible layout would help new users and mixed-experience teams get up to speed faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is SCRATCH solving and how is that benefiting you? Over time, SCRATCH has proven to be a standout tool in professional post-production. Its node-based workflow and 3D layout bring clarity to complex projects, while the intuitive animation tools and powerful color grading suite support high-quality results with efficiency.

Teacher Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 3/19/2019 "Best software for beginners." 5/5 What do you like best about SCRATCH? I love how students from different level can adapt to its interface. The software is very user friendly but students can create a lot of cool stuff in it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about SCRATCH?

Freelance Filmmaker Media Production Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 3/30/2016 "The best pro media player I've found. Waiting for better." 2.5/5 What do you like best about SCRATCH? I like the price (free or $5 isn't bad!) and I love how it supports any format i've thrown at it. The interface takes time, but once you dive in, you'll find pretty cool color correction features, easy comparison, and other on-set tools that will make life easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about SCRATCH? I don't love the quirkiness of the program. The interface ranges from "totally makes sense" to "what were they thinking". I can't find a quick and easy way to do a basic task like exporting a still. I really wish they'd use Finder instead of their own file system navigation to get to your media. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering SCRATCH: It's free, get it if you have the problems I do; however, I think the market is RIPE for a lightweight program that can handle pro codecs with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is SCRATCH solving and how is that benefiting you? It fills in the gap of a pro media player that supports all kinds of camera and editing codecs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
