Why Vegas Pro
Vegas Pro is perfect for beginners as it's probably the most intuitive and easiest to learn "real video editing program" out there, for people who have no experience. If you're used to the key binds that Adobe software like Photoshop has, try Premiere. In my opinion Premiere is a bit unwieldy for people who have no experience with neither Adobe nor creative software in general.
Full disclosure, I started with Vegas Pro and I hate Premiere for non-objective reasons. So yes I am biased. But having used Vegas and Premiere, well forced to use Premiere, I long for Vegas' easy to use and most of all RESPONSIVE timeline. It doesn't matter that Premiere technically has more features, when using it is a slog.
