Thanks for sharing your review of the Wondershare Video Editor. This is a great post to read for anyone who is thinking of purchasing it.
The problem with these semi-professional video editors is that when you want to take your video editing to the next level, you need to switch to a professional one like Adobe premier or Sony vegas. That’ why it’s best to start with a professional one as will have room to grow.
I have been working with Adobe Premiere Pro for more than a year. Sometimes, I feel the software is bit complicated for doing minor editing jobs. I will surely try Wondershare Video Editor. Thank you for this in-depth review.
