Magix Movie Edit Pro has the word ‘pro’ in its name, but in reality, its qualities don’t go well with the name ‘pro’.

The software lacks many of the basic features like 3D video editing and Multicam module that you can easily find in a free alternative like DaVinci or Hitfilm Express.

And that makes it a weak option for users to consider.

Here’s a quick tour of the software:

Magix Movie Edit Pro Pros

#1. Usability is a major plus point for Magix Movie Edit Pro. The interface is clean, and most of the functions are easy to execute.

Moreover, the built-in tutorials make the job a child’s play. And just because of this minimalistic approach, it becomes an attractive option for beginners or entry-level users.

#2. Magix Movie Edit Pro goes a step further by introducing Automatic Editing templates that help you add some spices to your bland clips in no time.

These templates are already equipped with all the effects, colors, and motion graphics. So all you need to do is to select a music track and title, Magix Movie does the rest of the work.

Within minutes, you get a stunning production as an output that you can either publish on social media sites or keep it on your computer.

#3. Not every software can support 4K resolution videos, and Movie Edit Pro is undoubtedly not one of them.

It lets you import, edit, and export high-quality videos up to 4K resolution without any crunch from its side.

Though you may need to have a powerful machine with a high-end processor to work on 4K clips.

#4. Once you’re done with editing your footages, you can directly upload them to YouTube or Vimeo or post the video on Facebook.

Magix Movie Edit Pro Cons

#1. Since Movie Edit Pro is the basic version, there are many limitations associated with it.

The start with, while all the editing tools I have analyzed before allows users to manipulate unlimited tracks, with Movie Edit Pro, you get only edit 32 tracks to work on.

Besides this, you would miss many of the essential features like Multicam module, blur or HDR effects, masking, and more. Above all, you can’t even preview your exports.

#2. Device compatibility is another area where it falls flat. The software is designed only for Windows machines.

They don’t have a Mac, Android, or iOS license. Not even for Windows phones.

#3. If limited device compatibility was not enough, Magix gives another reason not to buy Movie Edit Pro.

Firstly, it doesn’t mention anything about the license policy on its website.

But when I did a little hunting, I found that with a single license, you can install the software only on one computer.

#4. After going through the above three flaws, it might not sound like a big deal, but Magix doesn’t have a cloud repository, too.

Magix Movie Edit Pro pricing plans and payment options

Magix charges a straightforward price for Movie Edit Pro. It’s a one time fee of $69.99.

And to process payments, they use PayPal and Credit Cards. There are no other options available at the moment.

However, I would recommend going for their premium versions – Movie Edit Pro Plus and Movie Edit Pro Premium – that cost $99.99 and $79.99 respectively.

Do I recommend Magix Movie Edit Pro?

In one word – No.

Magix Movie Edit Pro doesn’t worth the price because the features are too limited to match that price tag.

In fact, some free services like DaVinci Resolve, Hitfilm Express, or OpenShot perform much better than Movie Edit Pro. And I would rather back these options than opting Movie Edit Pro.

That being said, if you’re enchanted by the simplicity of this software, you can either go for the Movie Edit Pro Premium or Cyberlink’s PowerDirector which is a far better alternative at this price point.
