Review:

Movavi Video Suite is a collection of programs. The main program that it consist of: Video Editor, Video Converter, and Screen Capture Studio. Though there are many other programs like media player, splitter, converter and burning tool, etc. For some format, movavi also supports hardware acceleration for faster conversion.

The program is categorised into many sub-modules which concatenate the different modules falls under that category.
Video Suite Tab has many essential sub-programs and from my point of view, they are enough to make your video experience smarter and better. Here or in any other module, with the click on the desired module, a new window appears to start that program and of course, the process of that program is independent of the main Dashboard window process. And, if you try to open more windows for same tool, it ends up with this error dialog

Starting with the first one, "Video" tab

Edit Video: Here, you can edit any pre made video with features like filters, titles, transitions along with volume, contrast and timer adjustments. Don't worry, if you haven't prepared a video yet, there are options to Record the video or screen or both in Movavi itself that we will get to explain after sometime.

During startup it asks to setup the settings and you can hide it from next startup with tick "Don't show this again" and on each time it will load with the settings once setup by user.

Convert Video: Since as the title suggests, all video editing can be done in this program with features like video/image watermark, crop. The more interesting video adjustments comes with these three customizations, viz. color Adjustments, Video Stabilisation, Audio Stabilisation.

Also, video suite supports many file formats which can be explored with this link as each file supported file format are given there with more details. Along with the file format specific video conversion, you can also convert the video to the device specific format and the supported mobile devices which are listed below and more details about this can be found with this link.

Here ADD will open windows explorer browser to help in choose the corresponding type of files. ‘Watch Folder’ monitors the specific folder for any changes and if any new file is added, it automatically convert it to the chosen format automatically. Thus you have to setup it only once and you will get the converted video automatically.
Also, Movavi also supports hardware acceleration using Intel graphics or others like Nvidia and AMD. SuperSpeed provides conversion at speed 51x faster with the compatible formats. So to check for it look for the ‘superspeed” icon and also check to use hardware acceleration in the settings tab.

Since SuperSpeed mode does not modify the video stream, you can't use it if you want to add a watermark, adjust the video, or compress the file to a smaller size.

You can adjust the settings from Preferences which also contains hardware use tweaks.

And, format conversion settings can be changed from settings tab, in front of 'Convert to'.

Record computer screen: records your computer screen along with either the system sounds or sound from microphone. Here, the best part is that you can customized the video record area and with some visual and sound effects like highlight mouse clicks, mouse click sounds and record key strokes. And, if you are planning to make the video in part of specific time, here is option “Timer” to help you in doing so. It has timer option and even scheduled recording which will start/stop recording at scheduled date and time.

Capture from Camera, VHS, TV: This option is really helpful when you want to get record your video from external devices like camera, VHS (Video Home system) or TV. You just need to connect the devices with your laptop by using cable or some intermediate device like TV tuner, etc.

Split Video: As the title suggests you can modify the recorded video to make it more interesting and eye-catching for the viewers.

Watch Video: Since I already told you that Movavi Video suite is the complete video suite and no suite is complete without the video player to play the recorded videos. So to make it easy and hassle free for users to play the video in the extension supported by Movavi, they have incorporated video player too.

Now comes the “Audio” tab which has four programs included.

Convert Audio: This is the same program as “Video Converter”.

Record Sound: This is used to record the sound using any sound recorder device.

Burn Audio to CD: If you have music collection that you need to burn to cd, you don’t need other burning software as Movavi also have this program in a single software. Just insert the CD and start burn the music.

Play Music: This module is opens the same program as used by “Watch Video” video player.

In “Photo” tab, we have three programs included

Convert Images: All three converters, audio, video and picture are integrated in the single program and all these three opens up the same. 

Create Slideshows: There is no separate program module for this. Both “Edit Video” and “Create Slideshows” are integrated together. You just need to click on “Create Slideshow” button there to get it started.

Share Photos Online: This module is not installed by default. It will prompt to download approx. 44 MB and install when you click on it. This helps in sharing/uploading the amazing videos/photos that you have created to various sites like Youtube, Facebook, Amazon S3 storage, by ftp servers, etc.

Burn Disc: Make a CD/DVD for your data by selecting files from hard drive.
Burn image to Disc: Make a disc using the already made image file.
Copy Disc to Disc: Copy the data of one disc to another.
Copy Disc to hard drive: Copy the data from the disc to hard disk in a selected folder.

We are now at “Extras” tab

Stock Video footage: Open up the Movavi site url where you will find a promotion of their partner site Videoblocks. Most popular videos are also listed there and you can download videos during 7 days trial period.

Share Videos online: Same module as share photos online

Other Movavi products: Url to other Movavi products.

And the last "User Guides" tab gives you more detailed video tutorials about how to do that task using Movavi video suite.

Final Verdict: The tools are great and stable even in windows 10 while render too but the trial version limitation makes it only a buyer oriented option, i.e., if you plan to buy only then it is a option. I like their video tutorial support which makes it easy for new users to create their own custom made video.
