A free trial gets you 30 days of full-featured program use, but any videos made with the trial are stamped with a watermark.įor comparison, our Editor's Choice CyberLink PowerDirector is available as a $69.99-per-year subscription or a one-time price of $139 for the full Ultimate version (the $99.99 Ultra version lacks some advanced AI tools and format support). If you're upgrading from a previous version, those prices drop to $119.99 and $79.99, respectively. Note that Premiere Elements is not a part of Adobe Creative Cloud service. These are one-time fees, no subscription needed. You can get Premiere Elements bundled with Photoshop Elements for $149.99 or as a standalone app for $99.99. The program trails Editors' Choice winner CyberLink PowerDirector in the breadth of effects, rendering speed, and formats it supports, however. Or you can ignore all that and use its automated tools.

As well as being extremely easy to use, it lets you go fairly deep with multitrack and keyframe-based editing. But really, anyone who wants to create compelling videos without tackling a complex professional application like Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro can take advantage of Premiere Elements.
