Software Reviews of Adobe Premiere Elements
Customer Review: Does not work on XP
Summary: 1 Stars
I have a new computer with Windows XP service pack 2. After repeated install/uninstalls the software still did nothing but lock up my computer. Adobe troubleshooting tips did not help and they did not supply a technical support email address. I returned the software.Customer Review: Stay away...It's junk
Summary: 1 Stars
I've had this software about five weeks and have had nothing but problems. My machine far exceeds the recommended hardware requirements and I'm an IT professional so I have my fair share of PC experience. The only thing I've been able get to burn is a 30 second sample project included with the software. Every time I try to burn my 1hr project I created with the software it just hangs, no errors or warnings, it just stops in the middle of the burn/encoding process. If you like spending hours upon hours troubleshoot buggy piece of junk software then this is the software for you.Customer Review: Dishonest, Disappointed

Betcha those who praise Adobe Premiere Elements are running high-powered graphics and/or gaming systems. My computer isn't exactly a wimp: Dell Dimension 8300 P4 2.80GHz, 512 MB RAM, 80+ gig hard drive, nVidia GeForce FX 5200. Nonetheless, Premiere nearly killed it. After taking a couple of minutes to load, the software locked up during the capture process, succeeding in grabbing only a few random frames from nearly 15 minutes of video. As the computer was rendered inoperable, there was no way to try out other features. I had to reboot my system. Even editing a small AVI file already on disk proved too much for Premiere and it quickly froze solid. Mousy MS Movie Maker roars, by comparison, so there is nothing wrong with my hardware. Over 30 minutes with Adobe tech support yielded a couple of changed preferences and a suggestion to install the latest DirectX. The improvement was minimal. Oh ... and before I forget ... Premiere caused my entire system to move like glue, until I uninstalled it. The box boasts some pretty minimal system requirements. This is wholly dishonest. Adobe should come right out and admit Premiere is written for big-mother gaming powerhouses. Unless you've got the right stuff, be afraid, be very afraid.Customer Review: Video Editing At It's Best
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't know why there are so many complaints about this software. After trying at least 6 other applications this has been a dream come true. For all of you that have found problems, check out the Adobe Premiere Elements Forum, you can get help there and be editing your video and burning DVDs like the Pros.Customer Review: Stay away from this piece of crap
Summary: 1 Stars
I read other reviews and decided to buy this as part of the Premier Elements + PhotoShop ELements bundle. It took almost 20 min to install this on a machine with 1g ram,Pentium 1.8ghz box! Its really heavy weight for what it provides. It cant even burn a VCD. So much for creating mpegs!! I cant even figure out how to create a compressed version of video directly from my camera. I always end up with a 20gb fileset. Editing is a pain too! This software must be developed by a team who have no idea of how to write a usable software . Surely this software is on the other end of spectrum compared to PhotoShop Elements. Shame on you Adobe for tricking cusotmers to buy this along with Photoshop Elements when you should be giving this for free! I should have tried the demo before I had bought this :(.
