Mediocre
What do you like best about the product?
Visualization, in my line of work, seeing the other individual is important. Panopto provides this.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure what this provides that others don't. It is a bit cumbersome, the technology is slow and lacking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it for assignments, students can use this to submit me their language videos.
Useful for screen capture in training videos
What do you like best about the product?
I liked the ability to capture what I was demonstrating on my computer screen, while also recording my voice, and having the option of an attached file as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am still working to understand the options for editing recordings, such as cutting out my pauses or mistakes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used Panopto to record training videos for customers in other cities. This allowed them the flexibility to watch the recording at their convenience, rather than just when talking to me.
Very capable system to DIY course delivery
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to create my own video content for course instruction.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can see where a faculty member who did not have the kind of support and facility provided by our Video Operations staff at the university would have difficulty. Panopto appears to be significantly knowledge intensive around video production. Most of us are not like that. That said, this is definitely moving in the direction needed for non-expert persons to create video instruction.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Panopto for a form of course instruction "flipping"
Excellent Recording Tool
What do you like best about the product?
It is simple to create recordings on the fly and have it immediately available to users. The editing tool is simple to use and makes quick work of paring down videos.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the UI was a bit different for viewing videos on the Panopto site. It has improved, but still feels a bit clunky. Certainly not a deal breaker though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My company utilizes Panopto to record internal and external training. We can take our classroom experience and transfer it to an online training environment with little effort. The best part of the software is that if we have a change to any content, we simply record the new piece and add it into the existing video. We save so much time where in the past we would have to hire a developer to help us edit training.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want to capture tribal knowledge, educational content for users or similar venture, Panopto is simple to use and can capture multiple video and screen inputs. The support team is beyond amazing and helpful! The fact that you can search just about anything said or written in the videos, is enough to make this product worth your time. The recorder is so simple to use that even my less tech savvy staff can create content with little to no effort.
We love Panopto
What do you like best about the product?
Editing of videos, sharing and permissions, in-video search, mobile recording...there are dozens of incredible features that we love and take advantage of.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't dislike anything about the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for internal training as well, we sell training and have used Panopto-generated videos as final products in e-learning curriculum.
We have been using Panopto since 2009, and the benfiets to the student have been trememdous.
What do you like best about the product?
One of the best parts of the product is the fact that Panopto is always looking to improve it products. it has added new video extensions all the time to make it compatible with different video platforms. is constantly looking to stay up with new technology.
What do you dislike about the product?
the only thing I have a little bit of a problem with is the fact that can be only 2 POC per company. the helpdesk when called refers users back to me. this is our contracts may be different
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
student grades improve when the instructors buy in and do recordings.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
lay out a clean, organized structure. Learn how the permissions work.
Panopto is a versatile E-Learning tool.
What do you like best about the product?
The search feature allows you to search text on the screen or spoken word.

The webcasting tool is a bit limited, I would like to see them expand on these features. Especially with the rise of live streaming options on social media platforms.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Internal training (one-way communication only), consumer facing training through lecture recordings.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The best tool available for capturing lecture recordings or other curated video content.
Panopto
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I am able to use the computer and webcam with this program to create and share educational videos with my students.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a while to create just the right video. Sometimes I feel awkward having my face to the side of the PowerPoint or computer screen in the video that I create.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This program helps me to be able to create educational curriculum for my students.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You have to play around with it quite a bit to be able to figure it all out.
Troublesome
What do you like best about the product?
It's got good support, and it has a great system for user access.
What do you dislike about the product?
My users are trying to adapt it for insecure transmissions, and they run into sharing troubles that really shouldn't be happening in the modern age.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing video.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just make sure it is the actual tool you want, not something you're shoe-horning in something you already own.
I create technical software guides for our end users via Panopto.
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the accuracy the screen-capture capabilities. There is hardly ever any lag or fuzziness when I play back what I captured. I typically record my voice over the video separately, and I like that I'm able to do so intuitively with this program.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the audio editing feature and in that it can easily be improved. The trim feature leaves much to be desired, but I'm still able to work within those confines. It would be great if the program had a audio and video trim and editing feature similar to every other existing program; no need to attempt to improve something that works perfectly as is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It clears up my schedule because of instead of going to each office location, conducting a presentation, answering questions, I can simply send an email out to all relevant parties with a link for the Panopto presentation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The more you use the software, the easier it gets.
