    Pinnacle does a great job. There is a learning curve. After this is overcome, you can achieve a lot of great things.

    I've used Pinnacle 14-18....I love the software and it is innovative with many functions for video editing, but all that means nothing if the product is not user friendly. I downloaded the Manual and slowly learning it! I gave it 3 stars due to it not being user friendly but otherwise great for video editing!

    Having to "Unlearn" Pinnacle 12 to Use Pinnacle 19

    I have been using Pinnacle 12 (P12) for video editing for several years. When it was necessary to replace my PC it turned out that P12 was not compatible with OS on the new computer. Pinnacle 19 (P19) was the most recent version available. I was hoping for a seamless transition from P12 to P19; however, this was not the case. The user interface for P19 is significantly different. It is necessary to "unlearn" P12 because of these differences. P19 appears to have more features than P12 and will likely serve my needs for many years as soon as I come up to speed on it

    I wanted to upgrade my pinnacle studio software. I had used Pinnacle 15 for several years and enjoy using it. Pinnacle 19 has many more features and in some ways is even easier to use. I received a free month of training videos, which have been helpful. overall it is a good item for amateur film makers like me.

    After finding the correct Studio Backlot instruction information, I was able to work with the program to accomplish everything I wanted and then some. It takes some practice and trial and error to get the final excellent results I hoped for.

    Too much automation

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Too much automation,giving less control to the user. I don't want the software to take over my video production and "assume" what I want to create. I want to download, edit, copy, paste, and create my own videos without fighting the program.. Pinnacle 8 is my favorite version and I would still use it if was compatible with my devices and media..

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I am new to photo Shop software and I am still trying to learn the ins and outs but I am having fun learning how to build my first DVD. For the price this was a very good investment on my part and I will be making several DVD's for my extended family reunion.

    I bought Pinnacle Studio 19 Ultimate on "The Deal of the Day". It was downright cheap! It did take a number of attempts to get through the directions because it can do so much. The first few music videos I posted on YouTube impressed my followers. The next few videos blew their minds. I went from having an average website on Google to having one that actually has a growing fan base. With a little practice (and trial and error) you will be up and running and doing some amazing things with videos. I highly recommend Pinnacle Studio 19 Ultimate if you want to take your videos to the next level, and if you can get it at the price I did - even better.
