Way too Limited to be Useful
Hey Fellow Summolings,
First the good: The system is pretty incredible if you ask me. It's top notch protection from getting your videos hacked, which is VITAL to online course content and that is what I'm using Vdo Cipher for and this is why I was THRILLED to see this type of deal come onto this platform. It's easy to use. Uploading MP4 files and embedding the videos on my client's WordPress site using their WP Plugin was super easy. So that part of the system gets a plethora of tacos. Well done.
Now the bad: The reason for giving only 3 tacos is that I find the system way too limiting. With merely uploading eight (8) videos, the system says I'm just about out of bandwidth and out of storage space. People are not even viewing my client's videos in her course yet, so I'm not entirely sure how this is even possible. So I'm disenchanted with the software now to say the least.
Can't leave out the ugly: There is no way to stack this deal. So even if I wanted to continue using vdo Cipher, I can't do so for this project. I'll have to invest time to find a DIFFERENT solution & set it up to house all of my client's videos for her course. And hopefully I can repurpose this lifetime deal with vdo cipher for much smaller project (one containing just two videos perhaps?) or get a refund. I even "tweeted" about their company for the extra 30 GB of bandwidth promised inside my account. Maybe that extra bandwidth is on its way. As of now, here is a screenshot of the bandwidth it says I have left:

And there you have it. The Good. The Bad. And the Ugly!
I did reach out to Support. Maybe there is a malfunction on the storage meter readings. I'm hoping I have more space than it indicates (a Summling can dream, right?). I did delete the initial videos I had uploaded and maybe those ones never got cleared from the storage reader... that's what I'm hoping no matter how unlikely. I'll see how Support responds.
Respectfully submitted,
JD
