Blender has a compositor, effects system etc that is more flexible (the 'nodes' sytem) but there is a lot to learn before it is useful. See http://blender.org.
My own experience is that cinelerra is faster for previewing one's work than Blender's compositor. Blender's compositor doesn't have anything like real-time playback...although it probably can match cinelerra when it comes to rendering time. And with Blender's compositor every compositing or transition effect requires a new track...it's never as simple as dragging a transition effect onto the boundary between two clips. Martin's right about the flexibility though...you can do almost anything with compositing nodes in Blender.
