The Installation
Movavi Video Suite 2022 installer is 118 MB. It took around 9 minutes to download on my computer. The installation was also simple. Within a few clicks, I was able to install it on my laptop.
Just after the installation, Movavi Video Suite starts, and it asks to activate the product. Movavi Video Suite doesn’t consume many system resources. So, you can smoothly run it on a PC with low configuration. My Laptop has 4GB of RAM and runs on the i3 processor. It works effectively and doesn’t even lag for once.

Movavi Video Suite 2022 user interface is simple. The main window lists all the components category-wise, so you can easily navigate. It categorizes tools in Video, Audio, Photo, and Data tabs. The Extras tab lists a few other tools from Movavi. It also has stock content, applications, and online courses to learn new things.
The different tools like video editor, video converter, screen recorder also have the simple interface. A user who has previously used any other editing tools can easily familiarize with the interface.
The Components
Let’s test a few essential components and see how they work.
Video Editor
The video editor opens in full features mode. However, if you are in hurry you can choose the Quick Video Mode from the file menu. In this mode, you can easily create videos. You need to add your video or images then choose a template. Then add some music, and your video is ready.
The main video editor has all the features. You can add your media files. You can also use sample media given in the editor. The previous version of the video editor lacked a dedicated area to put your current project media files. But now in the 2022 version they have included it. You can add the files in that area and then drag and drop them to the timeline.
The Animation feature is fantastic. You can move stickers, titles, and other items in the video. The Stabilization tool is also useful. Don’t expect too much; it is useful only on minor shakes. Similarly, the Noise Removal tool helps to reduce external sounds. It does not remove loud noises. Though, you can use it to remove minor traffic sounds.
The Transition, Sticker, and effects are attractive. They are easy to include in the project. You can use object animation with stickers to create interactive videos. The video editor also has a direct tool to share the videos on YouTube or upload them on Google Drive.
Convert Video / Audio / Images
The Convert Video tool of Movavi Video Suite is a full-featured video converter. It’s not just a simple video converter. It has options to edit the videos before converting. You can also merge different videos and then convert them to another format. It supports various input and output formats. Some popular video output formats are MP4, MP3, MOV, and AVI. Check all supported input and output formats here.
You can connect the smartphone or tablet, and it will automatically detect the conversion settings. It supports many popular devices including iPhone, iPad, Kindle, and Android smartphones & tablets. To test the features, I added a few videos and tried to convert them.
It automatically detects issues with the video and audio. The video I added had low audio, so Movavi suggests boosting the sound. Also, I noticed that the converter doesn’t support multiple MP3 tracks. Another video that I added had 5.1 channel audio. So, it suggested selecting one channel MP3 format.
Video editing features such as trimming, cropping, and rotation are available. You can also adjust the colors. Even you can make audio adjustments before converting the video. The video conversion time depends on the input and output formats.
It converted an 850 MB MP4 video into MOV format in just 1 minute. However, when I selected the MPEG-2 format, it took around 50 minutes to convert it. So, if it is taking too long, then you can choose when finished action. You can select sleep or shut down the computer.
The output quality you have selected also affects the conversion time. Yes, you can also choose the output video quality in kbps. I like the video converter more than the video editor of Movavi Video Suite. With the same converter, you can also convert video, audio, and images.
Record Computer Screen
The computer screen recorder of Movavi Video Studio is a sophisticated program. You can either record a particular area of your screen or the whole screen. It also lets you choose the display in case you have attached the extra monitor. It can record the screen with system audio, as well as the webcam and microphone. The screen recorder of Movavi is the best tool to create tutorials for your YouTube channel. There is an option to upload the video on YouTube directly.
The Movavi screen recorder also has a scheduler. I tested this feature and scheduled to record the screen for 10 seconds. It automatically started recording the screen & webcam and ends after 10 seconds. There is also an option to put your computer at sleep or shut down after recording.
However, the scheduler only works if you keep open the screen recording app.
Audio Tab
The Audio Tab of Movavi Video Suite 2022 has features like Convert, Record, and Burn audio to CD. It is a simple sound recorder tool. Press the Start Capture button, and it will start recording the audio. Though, there are a few options such as choosing the audio capturing device and saving location. It automatically saves the files to the folder you select. You can also add a date or text to the filename.
Burn CD/DVDs
To use the Data tools of Movavi Video Studio you need to download an extra setup. Just click on it, and it will start the download process. This tool takes a few minutes to download and install. With the help of this tool, you can easily create CD/DVD and Blu-ray discs. It also lets you create Super Video CD and AVCHD DVD.
The media burning tool can be used to create data, audio, video, and image discs. You can even copy discs to the hard drive or another disc.
The Value in Terms of Money
Movavi Video Suite 2022 personal license is worth $79.95. The business license is also available for $169.95. The most important part of the video suite is the Video Editor and Converter. The screen recorder tool is also useful if you are planning to create tutorials. The other tools are unnecessary and repetitive.
If you take advantage of Movavi Discount coupon then it will make the decision easier.
With this price tag, Movavi Video Suite is not a bad deal. If you consider other software with similar features, they would cost you at least an extra $100. Though, Video Editor doesn’t have advanced features still it is useful if you are planning to create simple videos. Also, the video converter supports an extended range of input and output formats. So, Movavi Video Suite has more value than its subscription charge.
Verdict
Movavi Video Suite 2022 is an excellent deal if you consider the features. It has three original components that are useful- The Video Editor, Converter, and Screen Recorder. Even if you need only two of these tools, purchasing a video suite is affordable than buying these tools separately. Only Video Editor Plus and Screen Recorder are worth $100. So don’t think that you don’t need all those unnecessary features and grab the suite.
Movavi Video Suite runs effectively without lagging and crashing on my laptop. It has an i3 processor with 4GB RAM. So, I can say that Movavi doesn’t need that many system resources. If you are a YouTube Creator and record videos on different devices, then Movavi Video Suite is the best option for you. However, if you are looking for a professional video editor with all possible features then, of course, this suite is not for you.
