It’s a huge time-saver when working on tight deadlines. Not every effect works for every project, but there’s enough variety to make it worth it. I still tweak some settings to match my style, but it’s nice to start with something instead of a blank timeline.

It’s a practical tool for anyone who edits regularly. I like that I can drag and drop effects without overcomplicating things. Some effects are more useful than others, but for fast turnarounds, this is a no-brainer. I use it way more than I expected.

This is one of those tools you don’t realize you need until you try it. It’s not going to replace everything, but it makes editing smoother, especially for routine projects.
Mark R.

I use Spotlight FX almost daily now. It’s not a magic button, but it does speed things up a lot. Some effects need small tweaks to fit my style, but that’s expected. It’s great for quick edits when clients need something done fast without too much hassle

I wasn’t sure if I really needed this, but after using it for a few weeks, I don’t want to go back. The effects look polished, and applying them is way faster than building them from scratch. I wish, sometimes there were even more customization options, but overall, it’s solid.
