A 50-minute interview used to take me three hours to cut. Now I read the transcript, delete what does not work, click to remove filler words and export. It is about seventy minutes end to end.
Pros
Text editing is the right metaphor for spoken content. Studio Sound rescued three episodes recorded in a bad room.
Cons
Uploading an hour of 4K takes long enough that I start it and go for coffee.
Problems it solves
Cut podcast post-production from three hours to just over one.

“Our marketing team edits their own videos now”
Used weekly for 6–12 months
Nobody here can use Premiere. Everybody can delete a sentence from a document. Webinar clips and customer interviews now get cut by the person who ran them rather than queuing for our one video person.
Pros
Genuinely usable by non-editors. Automatic social clips save another step.
Cons
Anything needing motion graphics still goes to the proper editor.

“Bought it expecting an NLE replacement”
Used monthly for 6–12 months
It is not one and does not claim to be, but the marketing let me assume. For our client work — narrative, graded, graphics-heavy — it was useless. We kept it for interview transcription and use Resolve for editing.
Pros
Excellent within its lane.
Cons
No colour, no real motion graphics, no track-based control.
