"Easy to Maintain with a Straightforward, Clear Admin Interface"

What do you like best about Panopto?

Very easy to maintain and support compared to Mediasite. Admin interface is very straight forward with clear toggles and descriptions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Panopto?

The maybe unnecessary push into the AI sector with partially cooked offerings such as summaries Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Olivia Andrews of Panopto

Thanks for sharing how the admin interface is helping! The feedback on the AI features is fair, and we would love to hear directly when something is not yet meeting the bar. If you'd like to share this directly with your CSM, they can route examples to the product team so your input shapes how the capability evolves.

"Panopto is a great video CMS and one of the key components in our digital learning ecosystem"
5/5
What do you like best about Panopto?

This is an excellent video platform that enables us to create content in various ways—through the app, using Teams and Zoom integrations, via Moodle, and even from our classroom remote recorders. It also provides several options for delivering video content. A major advantage for us is the ability to live stream our events and public defences directly from our classrooms. Additionally, the platform is evolving quickly, and I find it easy to keep up with their product development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Panopto?

Some aspects of the admin interface could be improved, such as adding better options for sorting and filtering users, as well as providing the ability to perform bulk operations on user accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for sharing your detailed review! We're happy to hear how Panopto supports your university’s tradition of hybrid teaching. It's great to know you’re taking advantage of our integrations and tools to support your content creation and delivery needs.

We appreciate your comments about the admin interface. Improving usability and efficiency for admins is a key focus area for our product team. It’s great to hear that you find our platform evolving quickly and easy to keep up with. Thank you for being part of the Panopto community!
