Boilsoft Video Joiner review
A one-time purchase for joining clips, with lossless cloning for compatible files.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Boilsoft Video Joiner is desktop software for combining video clips into one file, with separate editions for Windows and Mac. Its one-time purchase suits solo users and small teams who want a dedicated joining tool rather than a browser-based service. The main distinction is its two joining paths: Direct Stream Clone for compatible files and Encode mode when the source formats differ. A 15-day free trial is available before purchase.
For compatible files, Direct Stream Clone joins without re-encoding or quality loss. When formats differ, Encode mode combines them and outputs to a selected format. The software supports inputs including MP4, 3GP, AVI, FLV, MKV, WMV, MOV, M4V, VOB and MPG, with outputs including MP4, AVI, MPEG, MKV, WMV, FLV, MP3 and WAV. It also extracts audio from multiple videos into one output. Preview, drag-and-drop ordering, configurable bitrate, aspect ratio, codec, frame rate and frame size, plus predefined profiles for mobile, tablet and desktop playback, provide options beyond basic concatenation. Choose it if that format and encoding flexibility matters; a narrower tool may be preferable for occasional straightforward joins.
Pricing is straightforward: the Windows edition and the Mac edition each cost $29.95 as a one-time purchase and include lifetime upgrades and English email support. The Windows product page lists support through Windows 10, while the Mac page lists macOS High Sierra 10.13; current compatibility with newer operating systems is not stated. That makes checking compatibility important before buying, particularly on a newer machine. The product is a fit for buyers who want desktop joining and are comfortable with the listed operating-system support. Buyers who need confirmed support for newer systems should consider alternatives with published compatibility for their setup.
