With Adobe Creative Cloud you also get access to:
- After Effects
- Photoshop
- Light room
- Acrobat
- Illustrator
- InDesign
- Spark

These are all things that ANY business could use and benefit from. I use PPro exactly for that reason. Its very affordable for a business and can be written off as an operating expense.

And OP didn't ask for a "beginner" solution. They asked for "professional", "user friendly", and "self-taught". Beginner products don't give professional results and professional products require some learning. Resolve and PPro operate much the same way as far as how the video is edited. If cost must be kept to an absolute minimum, sure, Resolve is great and will meet all OP's requirements. If a business can swing an extra tank of gas per month, PPro also meets all the requirements plus the additional business-related apps. They really can't go wrong either way but a business makes decisions differently than an everyday hobbyist.
