Wondershare DVD Creator review
A capable template-led disc authoring tool, but Blu-ray creation is Windows-only and there is no free plan.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Wondershare DVD Creator is desktop software for turning video and photo files into DVDs, DVD folders, ISO images, and Blu-ray discs on Windows. It supports Windows and macOS, making it suitable for people who want to create personalized video discs from common media formats. Its feature set combines disc burning with menu design, subtitle import, chapters, basic video editing, and photo slideshows with music.
The published plans offer three purchase paths. The 1 Year Subscription costs $39.95 USD per device per year and includes all basic features, no ads, no watermark, and free tech support. The Perpetual License costs $55.95 USD as a one-time per-device purchase and includes lifetime use of DVD Creator, all basic features, no watermark, and free tech support. The Multi-User License costs $124.95 USD as a one-time purchase and includes lifetime use, all basic features, no watermark, and free tech support. There is no free plan, so occasional users must choose a paid license.
For authoring depth, DVD Creator covers the main requirements of template-driven disc production. Users can customize menus with more than 100 templates, import SRT, ASS, and SSA subtitles, and create chapters manually or automatically on Windows. Video tools include trimming, cropping, enhancement, and watermarking, while slideshow creation adds music to photo projects. DVD, Blu-ray folder, and ISO outputs broaden its export options, and DVD video can be converted to common video formats. Windows users are the better fit when Blu-ray discs or chapter automation are priorities; macOS users should choose it primarily for DVD-focused projects.
