Kaltura Video Platform

''Awesome platform for learning purpose''

Commentaires : I'm using this platform for a long time. It's my favorite tool for all types of learning. This makes my work fast and easy.

Avantages :

Best and most powerful platform for all educators who want to make online courses for their students. This platform gives freedom to make PowerPoint presentations and webcam with both screens great advantage of this. Very professional and no type of glitch.

Inconvénients :

I never notice any problem while using it. I really like it so much and recommended it too. This makes video upload and embeeding fast.

Kaltura - Great Experience for the End User - Horrible Experience for a Systems Admin

Commentaires : Kaltura is a valuable tool that integrates wonderfully with Canvas LMS. We have it set up for Teachers and Students to upload and publish videos. Kaltura has also launched In-Video Quizzing, so students watch a portion of a video, and then are prompted to answer a quiz question before they're able to continue watching. This interaction is awesome. Kaltura's customer service, however, is horrendous! Out of all of the technologies I manage for Utah Valley University, Kaltura is by far the worst at responding to emails and fulfilling customer requests. For example, I sent an email to their customer support account and cc'd our customer success manager and technical rep over a month ago, using the instructions provided on their site, and have yet to receive any response. Also, the Kaltura Management Console (KMC) is all Flash based. It's 2016. Seriously. Update the KMC.

Avantages :

Great product for end users, especially the integration with Canvas LMS.

Inconvénients :

Customer Support is the absolute worst. And the KMC is Flash based.

Overall good platform

Avantages :

The videos were useful and easy to navigate. You could watch in 2x speed or slow it down which was nice and you could put videos into albums or chapters based on topics and watch everything on that topic.

Inconvénients :

The problem I ran into the most was having trouble loading the videos. Not sure if this is actually and issue with kaltura or just network issues but I had consistent problems across different networks.

Record your meetings with Kaltura Capture space recorder

Commentaires : easy to record the meetings for future reference and has inbuilt feature to pause/start and upload the recording to the enterprise servers

Avantages :

Very easy desktop application. 1 click recording of meetings with audio and video and screen recording. Clarity is best and can be directly uploaded to the server from the application itself

Inconvénients :

Desktop application is little bit heavy so you need a good configuration machine in order to use it or else you want be able to use your machine properly as it will slow down the machine

Full-featured and well integrated at my school

Commentaires : Kaltura has been very easy to work with as a faculty member and gives students a good viewing experience.

Avantages :

Kaltura had integrated with the rest of the university's technology in such a way that it is extremely easy for me to use and highly useful for me and my students. Every one of my classes is automatically recorded and stored in Canvas so my students have access to every recording without even knowing that they are using Kaltura. I have experimented with the desktop screen recording solutions for my virtual classes and it works pretty well. It doesn't have all the features of a dedicated screen recording app, but it does record the screen and camera separately and lets the students choose which to watch after the fact, which is pretty cool.

Inconvénients :

On the desktop screen recording tool for Mac, I can select a portion of the screen, but I can't have it record just one window, which I would really like to be able to do.
