You can achieve average/good results in short time. It has a friendly user interface to achieve simple task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

It does not provide great flexibility, if you want to anything extra ordinary it takes lots of time and effort. If you are not trying to achieve a simple task then the UI is not the friendliest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sony Vegas - Easiest Video Editing Software"
5/5
What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

- Easy and Simple video editing software which look similar to Windows Movie Maker (WMM) and outputs the fully graded quality formats as per the customer inputs.

- Smoother Installation process with a complete guide which takes less disk space and readily identifiable desktop icons with suitable keyboard shortcuts for each.

- attractive user interface and graphical design.

- Video edit including high definition HDV and AVCHD has a faster rendering time.

- Merging of many files into one quality file can be done without any re-encoding or re-compression.

- Files that are previously edited through Sony Vegas can be dragged in within a second and after the editing it can be exported directly into Hard disks, SD Card, Mobile devices and You Tube.

- Very good web and Community support if and when the interrupts are arrived while using a software.

- Ultra Extreme performance with support for NVIDIA (any other hardware) while rendering/ encoding.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

- There are many icons which sees no effect on using or we do not know how to use them.

- Very Poor Tutorial Support where we don't even learn how to use the basic icons.

- For high quality export file always demands high RAM Support of the system.

- Slow boot, Software Crash, System Hang are routine if we are Sony Vegas Pro User.

- It works well in Windows but fails to do the same in case of LINUX and MAC OS.

- Updates/ Plugins installation are very often and very annoying.

- Users will loose their interest after some time since there are less plugins and the new updated version is more or less the same older one.

"Video editing with best keyboard shortkuts and magical effects."
5/5
What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

video editor having many good features and lots of effects to be added to videos. Audio can also be edited not much like audacity but we can fade in/out audios , cut etc,,. Normal editing functions are a prdefenied in software with easier kayboard shortkuts. Keying, slide transitions, videos effects like flares etc.. are preinstalled which reduces users taskof installing sperately. Lots of ouptut formats are also available with high resolution as well.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

It is not free to use, bit costly. Has to improve in load times. It doesnt support all videos at import time which is burden for user, sony vegas has to imporve this as this is more disadvantage. Hangs some times. Uses some RAM for which i have to stop running applications in background. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"video effects to the next level"
4.5/5
What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

The best feature is it is fast in processing speed and supports editing upto 2k, 4k and also sterioscopic 3D. Sampling videos or audios and merging with good effects is the best part where there are many pre installed video effects in sony vegas pro. Keyframing is quite simple and most useful one. Free style camera movement is the plus point .After editting or creating video the rendring speed and saving is fast and is available with many formats for final output to be saved. Gaming effects pack for sony vegas is the best utility for gamers like me with good visuals. Sterioscpoic 3D support where Red-blue cyan glasses can be used directly which is of low cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

Main disadvantage is load time is damn slow sony vegas has to improve in this .. Sometimes sone vegas hangs when an saved file is opened again after some time. Lots of plugins like optical flares and red gaint which are famous in after effects is not available here.But rest with the speed and inbuilt effects sony vegas is the best one.

"Simple to Use and Effective"
5/5
What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

Sony Vegas is a very easy to use and effective program when it comes to editing clips together, be it for films, gameplay videos or a small vine like clip, it even allows for file conversion and sound editing, it's easy to get used to and is a great starting point for anyone to get into editing. it's easy to move clips from a to be, it's easy to organize your clips, you can make folders in the program, so it makes accessibility even better too, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

What I dislike about it is it's very primitive, while it's great for editing bits and pieces together, there isn't a lot of variety, it's also very barebones visually, it's not the prettiest looking software in the world, Adobe's premiere definitely crushes it in looks and in variety. The playback feature is also very laggy and buggy, it always skips atleast a few frames, becoming very annoying from time to time, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have some issues with the preview portion, there is always a delay with the picture, hence I often cannot edit some tiny details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"video editing at its best"
4.5/5
What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

Easy to earn as i found many tutorials for the software in youtube which helped me to learn the software and create videos within a week. Timeline is pretty simple to understand and not much complex like other softwares like after effects. Many output formats are available and rendring time is less compared to other ones. And the plus point is there are many inbuilt video effects to be added to videos which is very simple to use. Audio fading and editing audio is also an option. If crashes the work done till now will be opened next time without any loss of data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

Cannot find many plugins like Redgaint and optical flares which are famous in after effects. Hangs for 2 GB RAM system and only sony vegas should be opened while using it. Not much templates found in the internet. Al formats of videos are not importable for which i need ti convert the video using some other converter software and then should import which is time consuming task.

"simple video editor "
3.5/5
What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

It is very simple to learn and to do video editing ,even keyboard short cuts are good and easy to remember. we need not to be professionals who does the video editing stuffs , even without any knowledge of video editing we can learn to use sony vegas pro in few days. Broader GPU acceleration support across video processing and effects. It doesn't need much hardware requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

It has few plugins, if you want to do professional video editing then go for other software. I think its expensive. And tutorials in the help section is poor, i learned more through web. it takes more load time and has to improve it. System gets crashed frequently it irritates a lot and it takes more ram of your system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Video editing made simple."
3.5/5
What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

Easy to learn, its simple look and keyboard shortcuts makes learning simple. Also, Installation package comes with lots of plugins in library which allows faster editing.

Output files can be saved in whichever format you want in optimal rendering time, and if system crashes while you are working in Vegas, it saves your work for you.

Most importantly it uses less RAM compared to other video editing softwares like After Effects, even with high quality video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

It crashes frequently with high quality videos in low configuration systems, It doesn't have enough templates to enable easy editing for beginners. Many tools can be developed further for better editing.

Difficult to make high visual movies because of underdeveloped "Green Keying Effect" or "Chroma Key" which is available in After Effects.

"Powerful video editing tool"
4/5
What do you like best about VEGAS Pro?

I is one of the popular video editing software for viedo editing lovers. It is easy to learn and simple to use, takes very less time to learn. Any type of videos can be edited with this. After editing videos can be saved in many formats. Editing can be done with very less time. Lots of design options are available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about VEGAS Pro?

The main dislike is loading time it takes more time to get loaded. Even the rendering speed is slow. After editing while rendering it consumes a lot more time, even for few minutes video sometimes it takes few GB of memory. Sometime system crashes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
