I'm not sure where Ensemble Video would be less appropriate. We've found it to be very effective for our campus-specific use cases. However, the product is very customizable in how a campus could structure their Ensemble instance to match their organization, and how users may be managed.

Ensemble Video is well suited in dealing with media needs for all of our organization's needs. It's appropriate in providing a solution for video streaming with the expectation that users can view content from any mobile device.

One of the main reasons we were drawn to Ensemble Video was it's emphasis for supporting multimedia in higher learning environments. Unlimited user accounts, security features and the ease of use has made Ensemble Video an effective solution. Prior to Ensemble Video we tested free sites like YouTube and Vimeo. However they didn't have the privacy settings we needed, especially for our user contributed content, and things were not in a centralized location. This made it more difficult to support and troubleshoot with our students.

Ensemble Video has been a welcome change to our campus. This web based service provides us with the video-on-demand capabilities that we were searching for. Professors can upload videos and share them directly with their students, or give them access to the library, and students can use the videos housed within the media library as a way to supplement course related video projects.

Ensemble Video is great in my work flow, as with one log in, I manage my tutorials for every single product that I support. These are organized using playlists/categories. I can assign one video to multiple playlists as well which allows for truly custom instances for whatever my sharing purpose may be.

Ensemble Video is well suited for:
  • Staff training and support. HR can use it for required training or informational purposes.
  • Departmental Media Repositories can be created for department collaboration.
  • Integration with CMS. Ensemble Video can successfully integrate with your CMS for administration, tracking and analytics of media content in your website.
  • Integration with LMS. Ensemble Video successfully integrates with most major LMS systems for content delivery related to course materials and assignments.
Ensemble Video works well for images and other formats but these are better used when tied to a video element. The management of images and documents is possible but is not the best use of Ensemble Video.
