My main criteria for an editor was that the interface is familiar and most importantly that the renders were in the cloud and super fast. Flixier more than delivered in both. I've now been using it daily to edit Facebook videos for my 1M follower page.

What I like most about Flixier is the flexibility to edit the captions, both in terms of the text and the time where it starts and finish showing it. It gives you full control.
