    I use Flipgrid to allow students to share their work with each other. For example, my students created some artwork based on a prompt. Then, they used Flipgrid to record their work and explain their choices. I also required them to comment on each other’s work to make sure they watched the videos

    Gumlet has been consistently reliable whenever we need to deliver video assets for internal projects or client work. As mentioned earlier, DRM protection and livestreaming are two standout strengths. We moved from Vimeo to Gumlet and haven’t regretted it. That said, if you need native social media integrations to go live or schedule posts, this isn’t the right tool. It’s also not ideal for monetized channels or large private audiences, as the current limits on private subscribers and profiles are relatively low.

    Pros
    Microsoft
    • Engage students in Speaking activities
    • Provides a wide variety of methods to share the activity (Google Classroom, Teams, etc)
    • Design of activities is made easier, because you are able to add images, videos, documents, etc.

    • Watching videos together in a group, synchronously, works perfectly – no stuttering, no pixelation, no audio dropouts, even if someone only has mediocre internet.
    • The automatic adjustment of video quality to each individual's internet speed ensures that the best quality is always delivered without me having to worry about it.
    • Videos start instantly and without loading time, which is a huge difference compared to our previous LMS and makes the flow of live events appear relaxed and professional.
    • Das gemeinsame, synchrone Anschauen von Videos in einer Gruppe funktioniert absolut stabil – kein Ruckeln, kein Verpixeln, keine Ton-Aussetzer, sogar wenn jemand nur mittelmäßiges Internet hat.
    • Die automatische Anpassung der Videoqualität an die Internetgeschwindigkeit jeder einzelnen Person sorgt dafür, dass immer die beste Qualität geliefert wird, ohne dass ich mich darum kümmern muss.
    • Videos starten sofort und ohne Ladezeit, was im Vergleich zu unserem bisherigen LMS ein riesiger Unterschied ist und den Ablauf bei Live-Events entspannt und professionell wirken lässt.

    Cons
    Microsoft
    • Fligrid can improve using mixed tapes. I feel if it's not pointed out, teachers don't necessarily know it can be done.
    • When setting up the topic, some of the personalization choices are hard to find or down the page. It would be easier to choose the most used settings and making them the default - like the privacy settings.
    • I also believe the word Grid should be substituted with class. Teachers are always confused about what the Grid and topic are.

    • I would like the ability to set a higher minimum playing resolution so that videos aren't blurry at the start.
    • Coming from Vimeo I would like to see a Chrome extension or Windows application to record my screen similar to what Loom has.
    • I would like to see sub folder in playlists within collections. Currently I can only have top level playlists.

    I’d rate our likelihood to renew at a clear 10, because Gumlet has become such an integral part of how we deliver, protect and scale our video content. The platform consistently performs without issues, the playback quality is excellent, and the security features give us peace of mind that no other tool matched. Beyond reliability, Gumlet keeps adding meaningful improvements such as AI subtitles, interactive elements, and better analytics, which continue to streamline our workflow and increase engagement without extra effort from our team. At this point, switching to anything else would feel like a step backwards, both in efficiency and overall video experience.

    The dashboard is simple to navigate. It's easy to view my videos and organize them. It just makes sense. I don't have to guess where to find anything. I also love the import tool and the ability to set up players based on my collections. This type of customization will save me time!

    Flipgrip is great for supporting educators. They provide opportunities for teachers to learn the program and become ambassadors for the program. They are also responsive to questions and concerns through many different modes. That includes online communities, email, and Facebook communities. They are eager to meet and troubleshoot with you and are also eager to meet educators at conferences and meetings.

    I had a quick technical question prior to purchase and a live-chat CSR gave me quick and helpful advice. I appreciate being able to clarify matters via live chat and prefer that over phone calls and emails.

    It was quick and easy. We found that the import from Vimeo wasn't pulling in the highest original quality so we manually uploaded our clips.

    Flipgrid is a game changer, working in a similar fashion to these other applications, but offering much more in terms of teacher control and implementation inside the classroom. Teachers can create lesson plans that incorporate options for Flipgrid to be utilized as a formative assessment tool to better gauge student comprehension and understanding.

    They have all the same features and keep adding more, generating landing pages for video share was huge for us. Ease of use, no ads. cost, it really doesn't compete. We're very happy with the outputted quality of the video exports and the ability to manage DRM for video protection was built into the app. A huge bang for the buck here. Can't wait to update or try out more new features. The biggest thing I love is that they listen to their customers and work to implement suggestions from the community.
