Filmora vs. ilos

It is a good program when you just start editing videos to get into it and have successful end products. If you have more requirements on a program you might need to be able to look into something more advanced. But it is totally sufficient to start out with when editing the first videos.

ilos is great for a larger group looking for an easy to learn capture system and platform all combined together. Because it lets you record, edit, and share there is no reason to learn one or two software for capture and editing, and another for sharing. ilos is not targeted at intermediate or advanced users, so the ability to manipulate your content - specifically when editing, is very limiting to more experienced users.

• Edits videos very well.
• Records the screen of your computer perfectly. This is great if you are an architect because you can show on a video how you make your renderings and plans with Autocad, chief architect premier, Adobe photoshop or even revit.
• You can cut videos perfectly and add music to them easily.
• You can use several predesigned themes to create any video you desire.
• You can add as much text as you want to your videos
• There are several filters you can use to improve the images on the recordings.

Incentivized

• Desktop capture is simple even for first-time users
• Editing capabilities and focused on only the most common features, avoiding overwhelm or confusion
• Sharing inside Canvas is simple and intuitive

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.

Adobe Premiere Pro is the gold standard for video editing but it was overkill for our needs, which entails educational and advertising videos on Youtube and other social media platforms. The cost and learning curve to train staff made it unusable so we switched to Filmora where we now have several staff trained on how to use it. It's just more fun all around and easier to use than Premiere Pro.

It was a tough call to choose ilos over Kaltura, but the more limited features made ilos seem more approachable for novice users. Price was also far lower because of the limited focus of ilos. Kaltura did offer more tools for marketing/public purposes - such as streaming, capture integration, and video portals - but none of those are necessary for us.

• I have saved a lot of money and time by not outsourcing the work to the videographer
• I have started posting more on social media by repurposing the long videos using Filmora's "Smart Short Clips" feature
• Now, any idea can be quickly converted into video using Filmora's "An Idea To Video" feature. It is just like Google's "Veo 2"

Incentivized

• Makes sharing content with students easier for faculty - so they actually make and share videos more than before
• Students don't have issues viewing, even on limited bandwidth
• Because you can make a video wherever and whenever you want, creation has increased
