My Reviews On Top Video Converters

What kind of Video Converter Software is the best? What should we look for in Video Converter Software? How should we evaluate Video Converter Software?

Generally, the quality of Video Converter Software is decided by sevral aspects, input and output files, advanced functions, speed of converting and CPU cost, user-friendly interface, price, help and support etc.

  • Input and Output Files – The best video converter should have maximum compatibility and  could convert files between a wide variety of formats. The more video and audio formats the video converter can convert, the more powerful the video converter is.
  • Advanced Functions - The best video converter should be defaulted to the most common settings. Also, it should have the ability to allow customers set advanced functions, such as: video size, bit rate and frame rate, clip and merge files, crop video size, adjust effects, add watermark, add subtitles, add target formats and other usage skills.
  • Speed of Converting and Save CPU – This one is critical for evaluate video convert software. Nobody can edure 2 hours for example to convert a video with duration of same hours, no mention can do nothing on computer because of high CPU usage. So, the best video converter software must handle faster with lower CPU usage.
  • Good Quality – The best video converter software should keep quality of source files or loss the least of quality.
  • User-friendly Interface– The best video converter should be user-friendly and intuitive. Tool bars, buttons and menus should be clearly labeled and self explanatory.
  • Price – High cost performance is also important for customer to choose a software, everyone hope what they bought is good for money.
  • Help and Support – The best top video converter should include a detailed guide, a FAQ online and an email contact. The support services shall be response within 24 hours.

After the long time hard work, I tried iSharesoft, aiseesoft, AVS video converters under the guidance of above criteria and get my own evaluations on these software. I will be happy that if this top video converter review saves you a lot of time as you don't need to waste your time on the time-consuming research. Or maybe you don't agree with the exact rank, then just download and test them all and make your own decision.

  1. 1. iSharesoft Video Converter Ultimate (5 stars)

After trying out several video converter, I have to say iSharesoft Video Converter Ultimate absolutely deserves the highest scores (5 stars) among these video converters.

Most wide range of input and output Files

It supports the most wide range of video formats for converting, both in input and output files aspects. It integrates all the functions of HD video converter and general video converter, which converts almost all High-Definition and Standard-Definition video formats (AVI, MPEG, WMV, DivX, MP4, H.264/AVC, AVCHD, MKV, RM, MOV, XviD, 3GP, etc.) from one to another. Aside from converting video files, iSharesoft Video Converter also extract audio from above video files and convert between multi-format audio files including MP3, WMA, WAV, RA, M4A, AAC, AC3 and so on.

Multi Advanced Functions

iSharesoft Video Converter has the ability of allowing customer to set advance functions before and after conversion. You can set bit rate and frame rate, preset final video size, add profiles, clip and merge videos, add effects during converting like crop video size, add subtitle, create watermark, adjust effect etc. Also, you can capture pictures during converting.

High Speed of Converting and Save CPU

The most noteworthy thing is high speed of converting and low CPU Usage. I was surprised by the short time it take to complete converting tasks. It's amazing and uncreditable. I spent only 35 minutes to convert a 2 hours video from AVI to MP4. And more, the quality is so good that I can't see the differences between the two formats of video.

User-friendly Interface

Very easy to use and intuitive. The tool bars, buttons and menus are clearly labeled and self explanatory.

Reasonable Price

High quality with low price $39.95

Help and Support

There are detailed guide, a FAQ online and an email contact.

  1. 2. Aiseesoft Video Converter (4 stars)

It's easy to operate Aiseesoft Video Converter to convert video files. It completed the task in simple steps as iSharesoft Video Converter did. I scored this software 4 stars because of the whole work with advantages also disadvantages.

Support almost all of common Input and Output Files except FLV

Aiseesoft claims this software supports all of the popular formats of videos. It seems that it indeed could convert most of video files, but when I try to convert a split of video in FLV format, it got stuck and never went further. That is the little defect of this software.

Multi Advanced Functions

Aiseesoft Video Converter also offers setting advanced functions for your convenience customizing your own video. You can set bit rate and frame rate, pre-set final video size, clip and merge videos, add effects during converting. Also, you can capture pictures during converting.

Medium peed of Converting and Save CPU

I tested Aiseesoft video converter operating system with 167 CHz CPU, this software took 63 minutes to convert a two-hours-long video.

User-friendly Interface

Easy to use and intuitive. The tool bars, buttons and menus are clearly labeled and self explanatory.

Price

low price $39.00

Help and Support

  1. AVS Video Converter

AVS Video Converter has clear buttons and manu labeled on interface. The biggest difference from other softwares is besides common converting functions, it also serves as a DVD ripper. Of course, more functions, more money. It's the most expensive among these video converters. The converting task to AVI seems works not good as others. I would like give 3.5 stars for this program, the following is the details.

Convert DVD with exception of not supporting AVI.

AVS could convert the most files than others. It allows you convert your DVD to any formats you want. That is the point other converters don't have. I run it smoothly on my XP system until I convert my DVD to AVI. It thrashed my hard-drive for half hour and I have to kill the process. Same to AVI problem, the MKV conversion works nothing. I tried this function, same to avi, my computer freezed.

Simple Advanced Functions

AVS Video Converter supplies the least advance functions among three converters. It allows you trim video and audio, add snow effect for you video without adding subtitle and creating watermark.

Fast speed of Converting but high CPU Usage

I tested an 2 hours long wmv video to mp4, it works flawlessly and takes 58 minute to finish conversion. But when I try a 6GB MOV video to AVI, my processor usage jumped right up to 100% and stayed there for the duration of the process.

User-friendly Interface

Easy to use and intuitive. The tool bars, buttons and menus are clearly labeled and self explanatory.

Price

Highest price $59.00

Help and Support

There are detailed guide, a FAQ online and an email contact.

Hope this reviews help you to make your own decision which one is right for you.
