Software Reviews of Adobe Premiere Elements 7 [OLD VERSION]

Customer Review: Not an Upgrade, use older versions
Summary: 1 Stars

As a longtime premiere elements user, this version is not recommended. Very slow response. Fewer options and they are hidden, for example to make a WMV, click share (not export), Pick some portable device that uses WMV and edit its settings.

Performance on a dual pentium with 4 gigs is slower than PE 1 or 2 on a single Pentium 4 with 1 gig of memory.

Wasted $99 and if you buy watch the rebate. They took months and then said I submitted more than 6 weeks after purchase, not true. And the don't answer the phone he you try to complain. I guess I'm going back to Sony Vegas Movie Studio

Customer Review: Good but not great
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought this to process HD videos of my new daughter. I am very familiar with Adobe products (use Photoshop, Illustrator, etc) so that geared me towards this. It does the job fairly well but is not as intuitive as I would have liked. It requires an extremely modern and strong computer to run, like most when processing HD files. It read the mts file easily and with no trouble and I have produced a few videos of less than 3 minutes with ease. I have yet to try longer length videos or burning to Blueray though.

Customer Review: Not good at all
Summary: 1 Stars

It does not work at all on a Vista System. The program constantly generates a "not responding error" and Adobe support does not have any answer for this.

Customer Review: Where's the sound? And the support?
Summary: 1 Stars

Pros: Handles HD AVI's perfectly. Excellent video features. Easy-to-use interface.

Cons: Sound mixer broken, no manual, no tutorials, no customer support.

The product performs well as advertised, except the sound mixer does not work. In troubleshooting the sound problem (only the sound track worked - all other sounds were muted), I uncovered deficient (as in "none") customer support, and knowledgebase articles that were vague and unhelpful. I installed the product on multiple computers, all with the same results - no mixed sound. I finally bought a competitor's product and found that Adobe also omitted a user manual and tutorials that the competition includes. This product works well for making simple home movies on par with Windows MovieMaker.

All-in-all, this product was a disappointment.

Customer Review: Easy to use but.......
Summary: 2 Stars

I have Premiere Elements 3.0 and have now updated to Premiere Elements 7.0.
The program is easy to use, but during burning to a DVD it often (3 out of 5 times for me) causes the computer to lock-up and re-boot.

My Computer has a Intel Quad 2.83 running Vista 64 bit with 8 MB of RAM. It is a very stable computer platform; except when running Premiere Element 7.0.

If not for the instability, 7.0 would be 5 stars........but the instability is nearly at a point of unacceptable.
