Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use it as one of our main prospecting tools as in a world of AI, it adds a nice human touch; as an instrument to create short tutorials that save a meeting or an email, and in general to communicate fast when we don't feel like writing an email or a visual explanation adds more clarity.
Pros and Cons
  • Good for sending demos that wow prospects
  • Useful for adding assets to virtual presentations
  • Excellent to book meetings as you can add calendar links
Likelihood to Recommend
If you're trying to do outreach, it's tough to be different. Cold emails are helpful, but so many people use the same templates or intricate automation in general that many buyers have cold email blindness. If you are trying to reach new prospects or communicate better with your clients, video adds a layer of sophistication that makes a difference. If you just want massive campaigns and are scared of showing your face, avoid Hippo Video.
Most Important Features
  • Landing pages with custom branding
  • Direct personalized videos
  • Booking meetings within videos
Return on Investment
  • More booked meetings
  • More replies from prospects
  • Better communication within and with the market
Alternatives Considered
Loom is an excellent tool, and I have nothing to say against it, but I feel Hippo Video has an edge on the Marketing/Sales focus that is key for my organizations. Bonjoro is also a good choice, but I noticed a focus on Customer Service and just building relationships with existing clients, which is okay, but for our purposes, we needed a more go-to-market-oriented tool.

This is the best tool in making videos, storing, and sharing it. We use to create videos that include screen recording and sharing, this is definitely worth the price. It doesn't require a huge learning arc, the interface is very easy to use, not complicated, and also very fun. The customer service team is also always in reach and very helpful.
Pros and Cons
  • Screen recording
  • Access from email
  • Storage
  • Edit on the go
  • Cropping, cutting etc.
Likelihood to Recommend
We have had videos stored on various places in the cloud, we imported it all to Hippo Video and very conviniently edited it alsong with screen recording. We no longer have to use multiple softwares for these purposes. Hippo Video is impossible to work on if you ever do not have internet access, then you'll have to look for other options.
Most Important Features
  • Screen recording
  • Guest recording
  • Import from cloud
Return on Investment
  • Greater marketing reach
  • Easy testimonials obtained
  • Worth the price
  • Less effects to create variety
Alternatives Considered
Hippo Video has a very friendly user interface. The options and features in this makes it more than just a mere video editing tool. We have been able to screen record, send out videos, and access them all from email. Further, we have been receiving testimonials from clients also through this.

Hippo Video is great to create personalized sales/support videos. You can can attach them to your email messages and send them as cold emails.

Hippo Video is in India. They answer your questions but they do take a little time. Not sure if they're a big team but they do respond to important messages. They also use their own tool for support and will show you how to fix the problems that you're having.
