Which should you choose?

KineMaster: Mobile video editor with layers, chroma key and assets.

iMovie: Apple's free video editor for Mac, iPhone and iPad.

The best way to decide is to run the same week of real work through both — most offer a free plan or trial — and compare how long tasks take, what your team prefers, and the total cost for your number of users including renewal pricing.
