When we tested it, we found Premiere Pro to be an outstanding program, but bear in mind that it is so fully featured that it can sometimes be a little intimidating. If you work as part of a team, there's also a virtual screening room for collaborative editing. Recent updates have added in additional codec support, as well a useful Quick Export tool that can be customised to your preferred settings. There is automatic audio and video syncing, the option to pull in motion graphics from After Effects and a lot more. Famous YouTubers that use Premiere Pro include PewDiePie, Zack from Jerry Rig Everything, Theo Jo, Linus Tech Tips, Jake Paul, Devinsupertramp, and a lot of others.

It's used pretty much everywhere, from solo creators working at home, to the top of the TV and movie industries.

It's the best software for editing videos, a cross-platform tool that's packed with features and offers loads of handy collaboration tools. If you watch a lot of videos on YouTube, a significant chunk of them will have been edited on Adobe Premiere Pro (opens in new tab).
