    Firstly, Adobe Premiere Pro's price is too high as comapared to Filmora's price. Secondly, Adobe Premiere Pro is not easy to get started. You need to invest a lot of time to learn it. It also reauires more powerful computer whereas Filmora's requirements are not that high. The …

    You can purchase Filmora for only one-time payment, unlike those software that have monthly plans to pay for you to be able to use their softwares. So, if you're looking for affordable, reliable but good editing software. Filmora is the best!

    I like both Filmora and Adobe Premiere Pro but it is worth noting that Filmora has some advantages over Adobe Premier pro. It makes as professional looking videos as Adobe premier pro but faster and it is much easier to use and straightforward. Filmora has many video effects, …

    There is no comparison, except the price; you get what you pay for. Buy cheap crap and you get cheap crap. I think Filmora relies on the price of their product to seduce customers and then only offers a meager amount of product, which is actually very substandard.

    An incredibly more powerful tool. More costly up front, but full-suite, no nickel-and-dime business strategy, and no nonsense or issues. Records video and screengrabs simultaneously, but adds them as separate tracks to edit individually. Pleasurable experience, and simple …

    Filmora is best for anyone who wants a medium-advanced video editing software but is not wanting to spend the time and money required to learn advanced editing software like Adobe Premier Pro. You can start making great looking videos in just a few hours with Filmora. Filmora is also a great option for professional video editors who want a lighter, faster and more fun program for editing smaller projects like videos for social media and video ads[.]

    I'm giving this a ten because I haven't needed the support in any way, however, I've gotten correspondence from them letting me know that they are available if needed. I've seen reviews saying the support is lacking but those were years ago. I'm assuming they've figured everything out by now.
