Mediasite Video Platform Reviews & Product Details

The most functional feature that grabbed me is the e-learning feature in the Mediasite video platform, where the students can actually collaborate and share content in real time with teachers. The chat or comments comes also with different options like polls and question & answer so that teachers can interact easily with the students to keep them attentive.

The UI/UX can be a little better in my opinion. It gets a little difficult to get through different options and settings to get the one that is mostly working for my job. Other popular video conferencing tools in the market are easier to use in terms of accessibility and customization as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use, management of transmission and video in addition to the possibility of events per ticket Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a confusing and old-fashioned layout model that makes interaction difficult for some users Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's great and easy to use with the step by step guides. Customer service is also very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Allows our instructors to easily create instructional videos and embed them into their online courses. The application is easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The integration with Brightspace requires a little training on the instructor side of things as sharing or copying over content requires an extra step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My favorite things about the Mediasite video platform are the split-screen viewers where presentation can be on a 2nd panel (with the ability to select focus) as well as the internal video editor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Though feature-rich, there aren't built-in easy explanations or entry-level user options. So for wide-scale deployment, there is a fair burden on trainers to upskill users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Extremely comprehensive backend, security, integration ability, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cost of cloud storage is the only concern I have currently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I never experience downtime. I need to also meet the character limit in this post. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It logs you out frequently, the "recommended" videos don't make any sense. Say I watch lecture 3a of one course, it recommends 3b of some other course, or lecture 1. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My school uses Mediasite to record our daily lectures, so that if we either skip a class, or need to go back and re-watch the lecture, we are able to do so. From the end of the student, it is easy to use and very organized. However, I can not speak for the IT people who implement the software and make sure that our videos are uploaded correctly.

Sometimes there are technical difficulties and the lectures get lost, but they are able to restore the server to an earlier backup and sometimes they are able to find the lectures that are lost are put them up there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user side of mediasite is friendly and easy to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The management side (editing videos) can sometimes be complicated and take a long time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use. Faculty can perform lecture capture by themselves with out IT being evolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Mediasite players are hardware and need to be upgraded, seems every year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
