VPlayed vs. Socialtext (discontinued)

As mentioned earlier, leaving the liberty to choose a monetization to the client (us) is a big morale booster for brands who want to generate an extra income stream with their content. Plus, their in-built video player that supports ads is also helping us a lot to multiply our money with the same efforts.

We use Social Text as a platform to air our issues with different departments. We voice our concerns and suggestions so we can help find a solution to the problems we incur on a daily basis. We need to have social text as an app so we can communicate in real time not only during work hours.

• Video streaming
• OTT apps
• scalable video platform
• video security
• mobile and TV apps
• white label

• Version history - Always keeps the edited versions and one can revert back any time
• Creating and Editing an article is very easy and intutive
• Sharing the articles with peers

• More flexible pricing

• Search needs a ton of improvements. It was very slow a year ago
• Search result quality was also not that good
• I know they have improved their UI recently but when i used it last year it did not really have any design elements which could be used to make the articles look more presentable. It was important for us as we used it for external communication as well.

We have a lot of info in Socialtext already. It would be hard to get all that info out and port it to a different system

None of the other solution providers offer customizability and ownership. Also VPlayed team's support was excellent!

I frankly like Confluence better than socialtext because of the speed and the quality of search. They also have better design elements which can help make the articles pleasant to the eyes.
