“Cancelled Creative Cloud and did not look back”

Used daily for 1–2 years

We were paying about £700 a year per editor. Resolve does everything we were using Premiere for, grades better, and cost us £295 once for Studio. Two months of retraining, then it was simply better and free.

Pros

Colour page is in a different league. Fairlight replaced our separate audio tool.

Cons

Our older workstation could not cope and needed a GPU upgrade first.

Problems it solves

Removed a recurring four-figure subscription from the studio budget.

“Free version is genuinely enough”

Used weekly for 1–2 years

I make YouTube videos and have never hit a limit in the free version. 4K export, no watermark, multicam, decent audio. It is difficult to believe this is given away until you have used it for a year.

Pros

No cost, no watermark, no catch. Studio upgrade available if I ever need it.

Cons

Took me about three months to feel competent. The page system confused me for weeks.
