IBM Cloud Video Business Outcomes

Reduce costs for users
Educate viewers
Allow students to watch and listen to their work
Share student work

Likelihood to Recommend

I can't think of an area where it is less appropriate. The service is a great streaming tool for educational content and has allowed us to share important content throughout the state. Students' parents and relatives are able to see their son or daughters school work by watching a video stream from a distant city, state or country.

Great product for Education Institutions
