Below you will find a curated list of the tools we use and recommend to our clients. We have tried/tested all of these products (in some cases written reviews of them). Many of the products and services listed on this page are absolutely critical to the way we run ShiverMedia. Everything has been tested thoroughly in our own business, and either helped us get to where we are today - or is currently being used to assist ShiverMedia in leveling up.
Of course, we only ever recommend resources we know and trust, however before we jump in - an important disclosure:
A number of the links below are affiliate links. This means, if you choose to make a purchase, we will earn a commission. If you do decide to make a purchase, don't worry - this commission comes at no additional cost to you! You’ll just be helping to support ShiverMedia. In fact, in some cases they may even save you money or give you additional bonuses we’ve negotiated, so WIN/WIN.

While the interface is not as optimized as other video editing software, how it seamlessly integrates with other Creative Cloud products is fantastic.
