After effects VS Davinci resolve - fusion

(1/15) > >>

Hi all,
It's more than a year that I'm working on animation for stock, going from something very simple like animated text banner ("happy new year" and things like this...) to more demanding jobs. nothing that could be compared to professional experts, but animations with some more complicated effects like particles or fractal noise.

I'm happy with After effects, as it seems to me an incredible machine to create quite anything you have in mind, but AE it's also expensive, and I'm looking for some good cheaper alternative.
I'm start testing Davinci resolve that has the Fusion section that seems really good, but I can't understand if I can recreate in Davinci fusion all the possibilities that I have in AE. For example, a simple text animation with light effect seems much more challenging to do than in AE. But probably it depends on my newbie status with Davinci.

Is there some here that can give me opinion about the two software? I'm not talking in general difference, that are obvious and I can see by myself; I'm asking specific opinion for creation of animated clip for stock: the speed of workflow, the plugin available for both, and the flexibility of both software.

Thanks for your opinions!

Coming from a lifelong Adobe software users, Davinci Resolve is better. Never thought I would switch away from Adobe, but I like Davinci more. It just feels nicer to navigate, and looks better too.

Resolve is more fun to use and more powerful, get use to the tool and you will love it.

Personally, I'm a huge fan of Resolve. I'm also a Mac user.

What does Resolve have for color correction that Adobe Premiere or After Effects don't?
