Try before you buy, FREE Video Editing Software Downloads available here

NLE-ScreenshotsA customer contacted our technicians through the live chat this morning asking one of the most frequently asked questions we hear: "Which video editing application is best for me?" We certainly understand the question and when you really dive in deep to research it you will find pros and cons reported by other users that may or may not be important to you. The truth is, the technology has come to the point that the final video production is going to look great regardless of which application you choose. The answer then is that the best solution is going to be the one that you feel most comfortable using. Fortunately, all of the major applications now have trial software available for you to download and use before you make a purchasing decision.

    No worries, however the link you used for the Mac App Store takes you to the paid version. To get the free trial go here:

  • jimatvideoguys

    All fixed. Thanks again.


  • DougFisher

    How come the 30 day free trail of Final Cut Pro X didn’t make the list?


  • jimatvideoguys

    Good call Doug. I just added it to the list. I take the Mac App Store for granted.
