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.

It's great for taking long-form content and clipping it out to short form content and then distributing it to social platforms. It's not great as a long-form captioning and editing platform. If your goal is to create shorter-form content and get it distributed to most major platforms, this will be a great time-saver

Pros
  • 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.

Cons
  • Filmora needs to improve the motion tracking feature.
  • Filmora needs to improve the green screen feature to make smoother removing of background.
  • Filmora needs to improve the editing feature that can allow user to manipulate more the texts, shapes and other elements.

  • There is an opportunity to integrate some workflows. For example, you can't add captions, b-roll, and music to long-form content AND then clip them. Those are two separate workflows.
  • It would be good if the distribution and scheduling were broader. Right now you can post to LinkedIn, TitTok, Facebook, and YouTube. A wider range of platform posting integrations would be useful.
  • The AI B-roll and stock-footage B-roll is a bit wonky. It will need better contextual matching to be bulletproof.

Usability
Filmora is an all rounder video editing software. Besides editing videos, you can generate videos, images, and music! So, even if you are not shooting any videos on your own, you can create highly engaging explainer videos, demo videos, or any kind of information videos. Filmora is powerfully useful to content creators, video editors, podcasters, or even for enthusiasts!

Easy to use and pretty turnkey. Prompting engine on the B-roll is pretty solid. Would be better if the lower-end versions had the ability to store more brand templates. Overall a very solid platform and a game-changer for smaller marketing and sales teams that want to push-button their content marketing efforts

Support Rating
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.

I've used Descript to create clips but that process was manual. OpusClip took a manual process and automated it significantly. Each clip used to take me around 15-20 minutes to create (captions, branding, music, b-roll, etc). With OpusClip, I've taken that down to 5 minutes per clip or less. Massive time savings.

Return on Investment
  • 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"

  • Significant growth on most of the platforms I'm posting to
  • Significant boost to overall content marketing
  • Substantial reduction in clip creation and editing
