What I Don’t Like: The subscription-based pay model. The color and light correction features are as phenomenal as you’d expect from the company that made Photoshop. Workspaces and keyboard shortcuts make the program a breeze to use once you get the interface down. The preset audio modes are stunningly fitting to their descriptions. What I Like: Integrates with the Adobe Creative Suite. If you’re willing to fork up a bit for the combination of Premiere Pro and After Effects (or $49.99/mo for the entire Creative Cloud), I think you’ll find this combination of these programs to be better than anything else on the market. One of the greatest selling points for Premiere Pro is its seamless integration with other Adobe programs, most notably After Effects. Many of the features and effects in Premiere Pro will feel familiar to those with experience in the Adobe Creative Cloud. If you’re in need of a tool to make your footage jump off the screen, look no further than Premiere Pro.

Its color, lighting, and audio adjustment tools blow its direct competition completely out of the water. Adobe Premiere Pro is widely considered to be the gold standard of professional quality video editors.
