CyberLink PowerDirector 21 Ultra - Easy Video Editing | Easy-to-Use Video Editing Software With Thousands of Visual Effects | Slideshow Maker | Screen Recorder [Retail Box with Download Card]

It is really easy to use, and gives you tools to edit your videos to perfection.

My 13 year old has been editing his YouTube videos on Inshot. He learned how to use in a class I had to practically force him to try this software. It is incredible the difference between this and the other software. There are so many more options and upgrades. I look forward to him getting more comfortable with this Cyberlink Software.

Easy start up but a huge learning curve. I’m a beginner so I’m having to do a lot of research which I expected. It’s been a very fun experience. My 12yr old son and I both use this software, he’s better than me though I must admit.

This is a full featured video editor that should do all that is needed for YouTubers and the like. You can clip videos, stitch videos together, speed up and slow them down, add transitions between videos, add audio tracks, intros and much more. The only thing that I wish it had is the ability to rotate videos simply. Yes, it can rotate them to whatever angle you wish, it just takes multiple steps. No big deal when you are involved with an editing project, its just that it becomes a project if that is all you want to do. If it included a right-click file explorer rotate option, that would be perfect.

I was excited to get this Power Director 21 and start editing like a pro, but after reading system requirements on the side of the box, I learned that my PC is a little dated already and I’ll need to upgrade my Graphics card. As soon as I upgrade my system and I’m editing like a pro..I will be sure to update my review. Thanks for reading and I hope you found this helpful:)

ez setup and run....love it

Will not load on Win 10, had to get my Win7 computer out and it runs. Not sure I am going to like this!

I have been using a previous version of this software for years. Because Ive edited photographs and home movies of my kids sports with PowerDirector before, it has been really easy to use this version of the software. If its your first time with this product, Id suggest finding video tutorials and taking it slowly as you learn how to make the most of it. There are a lot of really great features to make things such as a season-end highlight reel look professional. I use this software on a desktop computer with a big monitor. It helps me see all the features and keep track of where I am in the editing process. They are a lot of ways to manipulate and add to videos and photographs with this software. I find that I stick to the same processes for the results I want. I could do a lot more with this software if I wanted to, but Im happy with what I know. Most of the tools I use havent changed in this version of PowerDirector, but on the whole, it is faster and works very well for me.

I’ve used professional video editing software for years, including Sony Vegas Video, before switching to Adobe Premier Pro. I thought I’d try PowerDirector to see how easily I could turn separate images into a cool video slideshow. I wasnt disappointed. This feature is excellent and uses advanced templates, a palette of FX transitions, and the ability to add amazing text effects to turn your images into compelling video slideshows. PD’s work area reminds me of Premier Pro, and it has a moderate learning curve, even for those seasoned in video editing software. I spend some time learning how to put interesting captions with effects at the bottom of each image, which wasn’t intuitive for me. But once I figured it out by watching a how-to video or two, I added this skill to my video editing toolkit. The software allows me to split, delete, and reorder video slices, add professional transitions between scenes, speed up a scene or the entire video or present it in slow motion, create an audio track or add to an existing audio track, along with a long list of other features. PowerDirector offers just about everything you might need to make interesting videos for business or personal projects, including YouTube, Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, etc. My PC (i9 processor with 32GBs of RAM) had no trouble keeping up with the software’s requirements, and all functions responded smoothly with no hiccups or crashes. The price point is excellent and offers a solid on-ramp for those interested in creating stylish videos. Recommended.

Decided to put all of my old videos onto dvds and this has been great. Easy to figure out.
