Let me start from this - there is not many deals like this when it comes to video features for websites!
I absolutely love customisation options that even the Pro version provides!
I love what I can do with the looks of control buttons, progress bar and...
what I recently discovered and instantly fell in LOVE with is...
CHAPTER MARKERS!!!
I can now not only customise how everything looks, but save my THEMES,
and add CHAPTERS to all my Videos, so a viewer can quickly jump to the section of interest!
Something I'd absolutely LOVE about the Enterprise version is the SECURITY (HLS) for my online course videos! Will I ever use it, will it be VooPlayer, or someone else? We'll see!
There is still a LOT to do to make it worth going for ENTERPRISE for me...
Right now I see it as an UNFINISHED product, not because there is so much more you can ADD,
but because what's in it ALREADY isn't perfect (and often isn't simply working as it should!).
Some basic functionalities are not working as I have tested them on multiple devices...
usually where it fails is where it's needed MOST! That means - smartphone (iPhone) users.
SHARE GATE failed first time as you can't read way TOO BIG letters that don't even fit the window...
(this is the case at least on an iPhone's default web browser - Safari Mobile). They simply don't adjust to the mobile screen size parameters... and DO NOT FIT in the window.
I was also unable to switch it to full screen mode on Safari Mobile - hope to see this fixed SOON!
I've been in the WWW development since it's started. I've seen it all. And I mean it. I am passionate with what Web enables and what it allows us to do in general. However I usually quickly back off when the basic user's needs aren't met or where feedback is ignored. It doesn't look like it's going to be the case as the support team responds quickly!
I can only HOPE VooPlayer and people behind it become worth staying with, what I mean is that developers won't abandon it and won't ignore user's valuable feedback.
I am going to keep my Pro version for now, as there is a lot of development everywhere (especially Google-YouTube) and because I'd rather focus on giving what I've got than on how other people are responding to what I love doing and what I do BEST.
In SUMMARY - I love this product, I wish I could write about it in all the positive tone, but right now, I can't, as I want to take in everything I know and everything I've seen thus far.
Will this LOVE last? We'll see. It takes two to tango they say... so we'll see VooPlayer team!
And... THANK YOU AppSumo!
