Wondershare Video Converter Ultimate is an easy and capable ideo conversion utility, but it faces stiff competition from free software such as Freemake Video Converter (http://www.pcworld.com/article/239656/freemake_video_converter.html), as well as pro-level programs such as Sorenson Squeeze 9 (http://www.pcworld.com/article/2044481/review-convert-video-to-many-formats-with-sorenson-squeeze-9.html). At $60, its integrated disc authoring and burning may not be enough to entice users away from the freebies.

Drag a file to the program window, select a destination device from the drop-down list on the right, and click on the convert button. There's a large selection of Apple and Samsung devices, a decent selection of Motorola devices, and then...nothing.- Owners of HTC and other brands of devices need to know their format and resolution and select from the list of those that Wondershare also provides.
Video Converter Ultimate can convert multiple videos at once, and preview them all for you while transcoding in small video windows to their left. I found the program roughly equal in performance to the modern competition, though it's not quite as quick with large batches as Sorenson Squeeze 9.

It's handy to have these capabilities under the same roof. There's a decent selection of menu templates, and you can change the text and background image as well as add your own music to the menu.
