VideoPad Reviews & Product Details

In a previous chapter of my life, I worked as a singer and songwriter, which gave me experience with audio editing programs like ProTools and Fruity Loops. Many years down the line, I found myself needing to draw on those skills again when I became the video editor for my own business. When I first tried VideoPad, I was pleased to see familiar features from my days using ProTools and Fruity Loops, such as drag-and-drop functionality and track management.

Although I noticed some similarities between VideoPad and the older audio editing programs I’ve used in the past, I still experienced a bit of a learning curve. I think this is mostly because I’m not a video editor by trade—just someone stepping into the role. Maybe that’s intentional, and the software isn’t really designed for beginners. I’m not sure where else to mention this, so I’ll leave my comment here, with the understanding that the difficulty could very well be due to my own inexperience.

What stands out most about VideoPad is how fast it processes content — loading and exporting are quick, even for high-resolution projects like online course videos or lecture recordings. Its interface is intuitive for users with basic editing skills, and it handles a wide range of media formats. The final output is reliably professional in both image and sound.

The range of transitions, visual effects, and animations is relatively modest. Expanding this toolkit — even with a basic set of modern filters or visual enhancements — would significantly broaden its creative potential without sacrificing usability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've tried filmora wondershare, videoproc vlogger, lightworks, cyberlink powerdirector, adobe premiere pro 2022, davinci resolve, pinnacle studio, openshot, shotcut and NCH Videopad.

I like videopad the best. It features many functions absent in competitors, such as stopwatch timecode, star wars intro text, line drawing, and freedom of transformation in text and templates. Moreover, their customer support through peers is great, and the programmers listen to the issues and bugs report and suggestions. Constant improvement is available.

This is a video I made with videopad that the competitors would not have the functions needed to make, or otherwise being very complex and time-consuming in steps to make:

Currently, the export speed is not on par with the top tier program like premiere pro and davinci resolve, and some bugs exist, but they are working on improving it already. So I'm not too worried. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While VideoPad is a feature-rich video editor, it may not offer the same level of advanced functionality as some other professional-grade video editing software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This affordable video editing tool does all of the things that the big boys do (Imovie, Pinnacle Studio, Premiere) at a fraction of the cost! I have used it for a couple of months now after I had some technical issues with my Pinnacle Studio 23 software, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The manual is a little thin in the "how to's" so there is a bit of trial and error that is necessary to solve a few minor interface issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was effortless for a novice like myself to use with the controls being reasonably intuitive. I started the video with no idea how I would do what I wanted or if it was possible. I was able to figure out how to accomplish what I needed to and much more quickly than I would have thought. I also loved that it had common platforms, such as Google Drive and YouTube, already set up for exporting the video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having to start over when I made a mistake because I didn't know a better way. I have used very simple video creation software before. So many options confused me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
