A bit of a learning curve, when you first open it, you may feel lost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how seamlessly it integrates with Adobe After Effects. It is critical to maintaining manageable file sizes when exporting, and cuts out a LOT of the mental gymnastics of understanding every in and out of video processing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The least helpful thing is that it is a separate platform than other Adobe video-related products. If you don't have a subscription to the full suite of tools, then you have order ala carte and it can get expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. It makes it easy to export video in different formats and that helps a lot.

2. It's easy to use, and it does the job it's designed to do, which is to export a project.

3. I like that in one click we can change whether we want to use the cpu or gpu. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Whenever there is an update of my gpu it always gives me problems because I must have the newest version and sometimes I am not aware and I urgently need to export a video made in after effects, and I have problems with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Includes a wide range of industry standard encoding options for professional use particularly ProRes and Avid DNX codecs. The interface is particularly good with a concise layout that's fairly easy to understand especially compared to some of the other options in the space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The app's load time can be sluggish depending on how your organization has its network built out. Media Encoder exports out of After Effects can also take a while to load into the software compared to exporting directly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Video processing and editing is a tedious process. Ever since I discovered Adobe Media Encoder, I no longer worry about having my video in different formats according to what I need. It made my design and editing process time-efficient and convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adobe Media Encoder may need to be reviewed especially if you're not familiar with editing tool interfaces. It took me a few tutorials and practices to get a hold of what I could do with the tool. Other than that, it has been a smooth experience and I could not ask for a more supporting tool for my video editing needs! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very convenience . I put export job and automatically it encode multiple file one by one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It cannot encode multiple project file at same time .. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adobe Media Encoder has been my go-to encoder for over a decade now and it's versatility handling various file formats and the integration with Premiere Pro is absolutely stellar! On top of that, it takes advantage of the GPU cores in my M1 Pro Macbook which speeds up my entire workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't really think of anything I dislike except perhaps the fact that all my custom settings need to be re-created after an update. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Getting Media Encoder to render a few videos from AE or Premiere is simple. I usually cue up my videos, add my presets and render. The render engine works as it should and I like that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When there are errors with renders, I sometimes would like to know what the actual reason is, you'll have to view logs for that, instead of just displaying it as a popup Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Once I have my specs and export locations set, exporting seamless. I much prefer using this over exporting from another adobe app.

I love how seamlessly I can hop from Premiere to Encoder simply by selecting to export with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn't much guidance provided about specs to select. With advancements in AI, it would be awesome if Encoder could suggest the best specs / settings when exporting for your case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Media Encoder makes exporting videos easy. I can export one video through Encoder while editing another video in Premiere Pro. With an updated computer, Media Encoder will export your videos quickly and efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have very little to discuss on the dislike section. The only issue I have run into on occasion is videos not exporting properly and sound results in a syncing error. Sometimes Adobe's updates run into compatibility issues with updates on my Mac, but those generally get fixed in no time. It's still exponentially faster to export through Encoder than through Premiere Pro or After Effects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
