    Its not even smilliar to Premiere Pro. This program is a dumpster fire for any proffesional video editing job that Premiere Pro would handle.

    the free version is bad, too much limitations and you cannot export videos. if you want to export videos it's expensive ($39/month).

    Video pad looks bad and lacks many features! You can put some transitions and put videos together but no fancy effects or nothing like that! Horrible experience overall!
