Price is not an issue (VideoPad is very cheap) it is the hours of learning investment in one system. However I want to check out the open source equivalents before buying.

My concern, when I discovered it was not free, was that I would invest days of effort learning about it, only to discover I couldn't save projects (a Movie Maker restriction) or - horror of horrors - there was a watermark on the exported file! But no full functionality is available on the trial. Nearly bought it but want to compare the open-source equivalents first.Ĭan recommend VideoPad to any first timer. Overall: As a first-timer, I was pleased by ease-of-use. Nevertheless, they let you try out the full functionality and complete your editing without restrictions. I am still going to try its open source equivalents before committing.Ĭons: Surprised by invitations to buy it because I downloaded it based on wrong advice that it was free. This proved surprisingly straightforward. I'm used to OBS and Audacity but have never done video editing.
