Videos are frequently used by businesses to train or inform team members, onboard new hires, present the company, interview employees, and much more.
Once your videos are created, it is best to host and stream them online on an Enterprise Video Platform (EVP), specifically designed for professionals.
This allows you to gather all your productions in a single location, ensure their integrity, and easily distribute them to your company’s team members.
In this article, we detail the features of an EVP like Videas.
What Is the Difference Between an Enterprise Video Platform (EVP) and an Online Video Platform (OVP)?
Most of the time, we opt for public video hosting platforms, such as YouTube or Facebook, to host and stream our videos online.
However, they can be an obstacle for businesses. Here is why you should choose an enterprise video platform:
-
An Enterprise Video Platform (EVP) is entirely dedicated to professionals. Your audience will be restricted. It is the ideal video platform if you want to share your internal videos exclusively with your team members. Conversely, on a public platform (OVP), your audience will not be restricted and your videos will be mixed with those of other users.
-
On public platforms like YouTube, your video player cannot be customized. On corporate video platforms like Videas, however, you can add your logo to your video player.
-
Videos viewed without ads or cookies? That is possible on EVP platforms. Your audience will no longer have to wait between 5 seconds and 3 minutes before watching your videos. This also eliminates the risk of showing competitor videos. Furthermore, on Videas, your data is not collected.
-
Your sharing links and videos will be fully secured on a private video platform. Videos and sharing links are password-protected, a feature unavailable on public platforms.
Our comparison of 5 video hosting platforms will help you determine which platform to choose.
What Are the Benefits of an Enterprise Video Platform?
Every company producing online video content wants to stream it in a space that is both private and collaborative. Here are the key features of an Enterprise Video Platform:
A White-Label HTML5 Video Player
You can add your logo to your video player for a professional result that perfectly matches your brand image.
It is important that your audience can watch your videos in the best possible resolution, in HD. On a corporate video platform like Videas, you have access to a high-performance HTML5 video player.
A Customizable Video Platform
Want to personalize your platform to your taste? On an Enterprise Video Platform, you can align it with your company’s brand guidelines. A “private YouTube” that truly reflects your identity!
A Customizable Domain Name
Private video platforms allow you to modify your website’s URL. This is a great way for your audience to easily find your platform online.
A Media Library
Ideal for hosting large volumes of videos, it also helps you free up storage space on your computer.
You can navigate the Videas media library very easily thanks to several features:
- Organize your videos by categories
- Index and annotate
- Rename and search for videos
- Create customized playlists
A Customizable Sharing Page
On YouTube, you can only copy a sharing link. Corporate platforms like Videas, however, allow you to customize your sharing page: add your logo, customize the colors, for a professional result.
Enhanced Security
On a corporate video platform, your confidentiality is ensured in several ways:
- Your videos and sharing links are protected by passwords.
- A private platform can integrate with your SSO system for simplified login.
- Your audience is restricted: you control access management by choosing who can watch your videos.
- At Videas, your videos are hosted in France under French law to guarantee permanent access to your data.
A Collaborative Space
EVP platforms allow you to consolidate your videos in a media library. You can share your internal videos with your team members through a customizable corporate Web TV, as we offer on Videas.
In conclusion, we recommend opting for an Enterprise Video Platform (EVP). It is ideal for businesses because it allows you to host, stream, and share your video content online with your team members, while meeting your confidentiality requirements.
