I've been using Vegas since v11 and now I use mainly v15. I tried newer versions for a bit, but there are no new features in the newer versions that are really significant enough to force me to upgrade. It's fairly easy to use and very powerful as well. My only problem is the random crashes that can happen literaly at any moment. Although it doesn't happen very often, it's always caught me off guard and cost me some progress.

MAGIX Vegas Pro, formerly Sony Vegas, is a professional non-destructive non-linear editor with a long history. It has native file editing, and rich codec support. There have been many times that I've moved a project from Premiere to Vegas because I wanted to natively edit files that Premiere didn't support, or was laggy or crashed during export. Vegas is a great, proven alternative.

this software is quite close to premiere pro in many ways. there are some cool animations and stuff you can do in just one software; so you wouldnt need to install another program for animation like adobe.

however this software is very slow and can be quite taxing on your computer. you would need to have a very highend computer (more than what you would need for premiere pro) in order to use this software.

Just crashing all the time without warning and no auto-saving. I lost so much work with this software because it crashes without warning.

Having tried Premiere, FCPX, (Sony) Vegas, a little bit of Avid and some Resolve over the years I seem to always come back to FCPX whenever there's a Mac available.

It runs well on potatoes Macs, and is a one time payment, what else would you need ?

Although it is more expensive than Adobe Premiere Pro, which is a minor drawback, it is lightning fast and can make videos in HD better than Premiere, and uses less space. However, it is only for Mac users and I run Windows 10.

The interface is much more clean and the software is easier to use. I've tried many video editors but FCPX is my favorite software on macOS.

There's tons of stuff in this program. Their latest release offers video masking and they have better keyframing control than any of the others listed that I've used. It's powerful and there are lots of learning materials developed while you're learning to use it.
