Overall Satisfaction with Brightcove Video

We are a fund company that uses a lot of video media to promote our content and product information. That includes stock market updates, fund updates, new product launches, and much more. With videos it really helps to get the message across to the customer faster and more efficiently. Brightcove Video is being used as a video hosting and storage site. We mainly use it for embedding on our internal and external sites.
  • Video hosting
  • Allows you to convert to YouTube and other channels
  • Simple and easy to use and display
  • The embedding is very nice on HTML pages
  • Does not have organic traction
  • No YouTube online community
  • Limited fast forward, marker ability
  • Has all basic functions needed for video player
  • Nice and easy for embedding and hosting
  • No ads--that's a big one
  • No related videos from other competitors
  • Hiding published date and total views
  • It does have a cost compared to other free platforms
  • Lost the online YouTube community search
  • It doesn't have best analytics--but maybe can partner with other integrations
YouTube, Vimeo, they are not on list, but still Brightcove Video is the best so far and we have been using it for a long time.

Yes

Would you buy Brightcove again?

Yes

It works very nicely for our company site because it can easily and seamlessly embed into the site and email HTML pages. It also has picture in picture, sharing, closed captioning (CC) as basic functions. It will also show the time of the video. Because these are short-term-use videos or might get updated frequently and also are just targeting a specific audience, being able to hide or not able to show the number of views or date published (unlike YouTube) actually helps us.
