Video reviews have boosted customer trust and now drive higher retention and sales
Brightcove offers some of the best streaming solutions available, integrating very well with mobile and native devices like iOS and Android, and fantastically with the web as well, giving high-quality video streaming with advanced analytics and enterprise-level control. Brightcove's integration with mobile and web supported our team very smoothly. Brightcove integrates with native devices as well as iOS, Android, and web seamlessly. We had a React application where it integrated smoothly, and the team from Brightcove for the initial setup and integration was very helpful, with really good documentation to support integration. Brightcove is highly scalable and performant, with high-quality videos. We can switch to any mode and it gives great customization to the player integration. We could customize the integrated player based on our requirements, including creating chapters, which represents one of the best use cases we have utilized from Brightcove.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"From the organization's perspective, Brightcove is a great asset for building brand awareness and market share."
"With the help of live streaming using Brightcove, it helps us to retain customers and engage new customers."
"As a smaller organization, we were able to deliver a video on demand platform for hundreds of thousands of users with just a few engineers, so it has been very useful in that regard."
"If someone is looking for a private space, a safe space to host private videos and limit the users from accessing them outside their domain, then Brightcove is one of the trustworthy tools and can be recommended."
"After using Brightcove, I have been quite happy with their video portal and CMS, which is why we have been working with them for quite a while."
"Brightcove is undeniably reliable and stable; it is the best of breed, likely in the top one or two platforms available, with reliability that encompasses both technology and personnel."
"The best features Brightcove offers, starting with analytics, is great as it helps us to view the current trend."
"Brightcove has significantly impacted our organization from a business perspective, as video holds significant importance for displaying our products and demonstrating our services for customers, and in terms of specific outcomes, we have achieved higher conversion rates, with our analytics reports indicating a lot of clicks and views on the videos on our webpages, such as a forty-five percent click-through rate last week that improves overall page performance and sales."
"<p>Anyone who is looking for a dedicated solution to improve their organization's latency, uptime, and bandwidth should definitely go ahead with Haivision SRT Gateway, as it is a great solution.</p>"
"Haivision SRT Gateway has positively impacted my organization because being able to spin up a cloud-based server whenever I need the service is really cost-effective since the license is applied as part of the subscription cost, allowing me to only pay for it when I need it, meaning I'm not stuck with a large expenditure that only gets used for certain days or months of the year, making it really beneficial from a budget point of view."
 

Cons

"In general, I frequently communicate with their tier one technical support via email or ticketing. This is an area where I feel they could improve because it often takes a while for them to respond, even as a premium customer."
"Sometimes, quite a few buttons, options, and settings are presented on the interface, making it difficult for users to clearly understand which option they need to use."
"I would suggest for the interface to have more flexibility so that from a UX perspective, it could be improved."
"Brightcove needs better support for React Native, as the video player that comes with it has native playback for Android and iOS, but we do not want to maintain so many platforms."
"I chose 7 out of 10 for Brightcove because of the cost and another reason being the steep learning curve and the complexity in configuring it in AEM on-premise."
"Brightcove, being one of the great tools, was the first premier tool that we used to get the videos hosted on the website, but then there were a lot of downsides to this product."
"Brightcove is already an amazing tool; the only consideration is that it is somewhat costly compared to other products, but that is justified because of the features they provide."
"The biggest concern revolved around locking down pricing."
"<p>Haivision SRT Gateway sometimes does not have HEVC or AVC conversion, so an external encoder or decoder is required at times.</p>"
