Top Rated MediaBeacon Alternatives
Good enterprise product with many features. Easy to install. Very robust video features. Modern web-based interface with a lot of customization available. Robust user profile settings. Very good search capabilities. Features very customizable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A bit of a steep learning curve. Interface can sometimes be too overwhelming. Users/Groups/ACL model for permissions and security can be confusing. Updates are often buggy. User based license model. Users often do not take full advantage of features because there are so many. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The search functionality was comprehensive and gave a lot of great control to the user Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Most of the great features that I tried to use, slowly would loose functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I enjoy its clean and sleek design. It is easy on the eyes. My job ask us to grab footage fast from MediaBeacon so its clean design makes it easy to enter in info. I also really enjoy the it saves my log in user name making it easier to click right into looking in. I also enjoy that it is customized towards Showtime being called Redspace. I also like that you can separate the items from image, video and print. Making it easier to make a smaller list to look through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is hard to click through all of the items we have under our profile. It's hard to find specific things. I find that I have to scroll through tons of things that don't pertain to the job or even show that I am looking for. I wish if I was looking for a specific shot or photo from a show that I could have an easier time narrowing down the exact source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
allows us to organize our assets much more efficiently. where I wasn't able to find other videos, media beacon has allowed me to search for more ambiguous assets with its search function. it allows us to search by show, which is huge, and when we can't find file names from other asset management platforms, media beacon usually helps us find it. the best part is that it allows us to search beyond just series, but across all our assets, like documentaries, movies, sports, spots, and more.

it's not super aesthetically pleasing, but it does the job. sometimes the loading gets a little funky, it'll choke up a little, but I guess that makes sense considering it's loading up so many videos images, and preview. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The easy to follow directions and the multi layered effects you can use in the design phase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing rhat i dont like about Media Beacon except that it did not come out 20 years ago when i first started in the field Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to upload, intuitive and easy to navigate. We have someone in house that is dedicated to getting everyone trained, so we might have it a little easier than most people, but it is such a good project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It does take a long time to get this set up, but like I said in my title, well worth it in the end. I would recommend getting someone who can learn everything there is to know about this before implementing. It can be kind of a beast to tackle at first, but the more you use it, the more you get to know it (just like any software.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
