Corel VideoStudio Ultimate 2021 | Video Editing Software with Hundreds of Premium Effects | Slideshow Maker, Screen Recorder, DVD Burner [PC Disc] [Old Version]

I bought my first Corel editor about six years ago. It bailed me out by being easier to figure out under pressure than two other expensive editors. Since then, Ive had a soft spot for their products. This one isnt bad but not great either. The install took a while but it worked so..okay. The rendering was faster than what Id been using and it was easy to add music. I couldnt figure out how to capture directly from a professional video--not sure its doable--so that was a disadvantage for what I wanted. Overall, it worked for what I needed and is still very affordable for what you get.

Difficult to use. Did not even use. Tried relentlessly then threw in the towel. Was having to put in one photo at a time and edit each for a simple home video to use for a memorial. Need a refund. Not usable

I have better video editing apps. You cant do more than one thing on this at a time or it gets glitchy. You can add music to videos.

Ive used Corels video editor in the past. Its a decent product, but with every passing year, it feels clunkier and clunkier. This software needs a rebuild from the ground up. The biggest issue is the user interface. It feels old and outdated. In some places, its outright annoying. This is very apparent when you use the capture function. Youll have to monkey around to find the multi-cam capture. On one hand I applaud the fact that MCC is now imbedded in the main program, instead of a standalone app, but it should be much easier to find. That capture tab is just a mess. Another huge issue is the optimization. This thing runs like hot garbage at times. I have a new PC and a top of the line video card. This runs much slower than previous versions Ive used on older, less powerful machines. There is a monkey in the room we need to address with this software. If you are only looking for a video editor, for basic editing, this is a terrible choice. If you want an excellent video editor, for intensive processing, this is a terrible choice. The only people I can see getting value out of this, is an aspiring YouTuber who wants beyond basic editing. For the average person who just wants to edit basic video, the video editor Microsoft puts in Windows 10, for free, is a much better option. There is another issue that severely impacts the value. This is a Corel product. Ah, Corel! The EA of the media editing world. If youre not sure what that means, this is what you are going to get: 1 - Some updates over the next year. 2 - Subpar support 3 - Random glitches that will drive you nuts. 4 - You will witness your software turn into adware after a year. Number four is the biggest issue for me. Corel is infamous for this. Prepare to get assaulted with ads that try to get you to dish out money after a year. These ads might even show up in your Windows feed. Its aggressive and shameful, when youve already paid a good amount of money for the software. Basically, this one is really hard to recommend and even more so if you already have a previous version. There just isnt enough to really justify upgrading to this one. Id hold off until Corel overhauls the UI.

THIS WAS USED! The rigistration number is already licensed to someone else and the disk had many scratches on it also!

Waste of time.

Will buy another brand next time

I have used several Corel products for over a decade. They have performed well and are easy enough to use. Until, that is, I upgraded to Video Studio Ultimate 2021. I had numerous problems with the Corel part and I re-installed to good results but the MultiCam Capture, included with the base Corel software, is buggy to the extreme. Im pretty sure someone might be able to solve the problems but not certainly Corel support. Support here is non-existent. Ive sent emails, made calls etc and the result is zero- zip - actual understanding of what I have carefully communicated to them. So now Ive just asked for a refund but really dont have the confidence that they will even do that correctly. Only have a week to stay within their timeline for a refund. After that Im going to call my credit card company and get them to take it off for me. I do NOT recommend Corel any more because of the completely useless tech support.

This is by far the worst performing video editor on the market. It is just a constant Crash Fest , plus each year they put out a new vwrsio,, which is just the same version from 5 years ago with one or two new aspects. If you really want to hate video editing experience, buy this product. Oh, I almost forgot, dont even think about calling tech support, most of them have never used this product and will only give you pre scripted assistance. This product is definitely a Thumbs Down.

I bought corel video studio editing 2021 on Dec.22.2021 as a download. for the first half an hour. worked fine Then started to hang up and freeze on photos and videos when loaded. then it skip through scenes and delete files. the next three attempt failed and lockup.FINALLY CRASHED! a state of art $2000.00 computer.do not waste your momey on this download. a $64.00 piece of garbage waste of time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
