Reliable and Good Feature Set But Hard to Scale
Brightcove is our enterprise video hosting platform. Brightcove is used across our entire organization, for both internal and external video hosting needs on our public-facing website and internal intranet. The organization prefers Brightcove because it allows more privacy and more control over how content is being distributed compared to other tools such as YouTube.

Brightcove for Beginners
Brightcove was used across two departments (Marketing & Video creation). It solved the issue of having a common space for all professional videos to live and avoided possible security breaches from other video hosting sites such as YouTube or Vimeo. Because you could set custom permissions settings on Brightcove, we were able to ensure that the content was secure.

Brightcove Video Cloud - Art of story telling!
Brightcove Video Cloud was used to primarily showcase our products and books. We also used videos for authors of books to talk briefly about the book they authored and used it on the eCommerce store. We also had online professional development and used it for educating educators on how to teach. Videos were used as relevant content on the page. Some parts of the website had the Brightcove Video Player customized as per the design of our site.

I really enjoyed using Brightcove for our live and prerecorded streaming. The flexibility regard to video uploading from mobile devices meant reporters and staff were able to submit video from the field without having to consult a web producer. Prior to an event our web producers were able to set up multiplaylist players and basically walk away as the system managed uploads. Brightcove saved us a ton of time and allowed us to focus on more important tasks.

Even the folks in Marketing can use this product
We are implementing it as part of an overall redesign of our current public website, utilizing Brightcove as our new video library and video platform. The desire was to get away from YouTube videos.
Currently the Marketing department is using it across the various groups including internal communication and our blog. After the site is live we will introduce BrightCove across the organization and start building a more robust library.
What I was most impressed with was the ease of use for the average non-technical user and also the support from Brightcove.

My organization began using Brightcove as our company-wide video cloud solution because our servers were struggling with the bandwidth usage and taking the videos to a third party hosting solution seemed like a great way to off-load the videos. Brightcove was a good solution, as it came with a base set of players as well as provided multiple renditions based on available connection speeds of the clients.

One department currently uses the Brightcove Video Cloud, IT. Our IT department handles all web site design, development and updates. One huge business issue that Brightcove resolves for us is security. We have a secure site that our customers use and use Brightcove on that site for security reasons. For instance, being able to turn off the "get code" feature if we don’t want videos being shared. Also, we have users on a variety of platforms and browsers. Being able to transcode to multiple streams is invaluable.

Brightcove was being used by a previous company that I worked for, Outside Television, syndicate of the Outside lifestyle magazine. We used it to edit short video clips and add video tags for web searches in order to broaden the reach of our material. It was only being used by the research and development team and did not cause any business related problems.

The read APIs are being used to grab video assets for media processing and meta-data tagging. It's used by our Data Engineering department to easily access video assets and meta data. We are fan of the read APIs, though while good, some of the documentation could be better. We also use the write APIs to write back to Brightcove, which we are slightly less impressed with.

Brightcove is used by multiple departments in my company for both external and internal videos. External videos are posted to our company website and YouTube channel. Internal videos are for employee use only. Specially I use Brightcove to host internal training videos for my company. We use Brightcove as our platform to ensure that videos cannot be downloaded and shared outside of our organization.

We use Brightcove to deliver about 800 product training videos and a few videos for our internal web site. Brightcove delivers globally, including China (You Tube will not). The tool renders multiple versions of a video to deliver to the users device properly. I.E. iPad, phone, computer. The system also delivers the quality of video the users internet speed can handle to avoid the start stop start stop issue some sites have.
